Multiple Layouts in Refinery CMS

Does anyone know how to make multiple layouts in refinery? It doesn't have to be in the user admin I just need to be able to programmatically tell some refinery pages to use one layout and others to use a different one.

thanks.

Refinery CMS: generating migrations for existing models within an engine

I want to add an attribute to a model I've created within a Refinery CMS engine. I know I could do the following:

1. rails generate migration AddPartNumberToProducts part_number:string
2. Manually move the migration file from db/migrate to vendor/extensions/products/db/migrate

But is there a command to generate the migration into the correct folder in the first place?

Thanks!

How do i work with nested model attributes in refinerycms?

I have seen http://railscasts.com/episodes/196-nested-model-form-revised and tried the same doing with my refinery engine, but i am not able to see the nested fields in my form while adding a record from admin section and also I am not getting any errors. I am unable to figure out what exactly is happening or may be if i am missing any refinery related configuration thing.

I tried this on Rails Console:

 Refinery::Extension::Model.nested_attributes_options
 => {:nested_model_name=>{:allow_destroy=>false, :update_only=>false}}

I have 2 models Question and Option, but while submitting form for question with options as nested elements it is giving me Error as below

  ActiveModel::MassAssignmentSecurity::Error in  Refinery::Papers::Admin::QuestionsController#create

Can't mass-assign protected attributes: refinery_papers_options

Request

Parameters:

{"utf8"=>"✓", "authenticity_token"=>"TqL+r60R05+meVhPBXPPipvL+X3ZNx+3dCwoThFBn/Y=", "question"=>{"content"=>"

aaaaaaaaaa

", "correct_answers"=>"a", "refinery_papers_options"=>{"content"=>"

asdfghjklkmnv

", "_destroy"=>"0"}, "position"=>0}, "locale"=>:en}

My Models and view Are:

Question Model:

    module Refinery
     module Papers
     class Question < Refinery::Core::BaseModel

      self.table_name = 'refinery_papers_questions'

      attr_accessible :content, :correct_answers, :options_attributes, :position

      validates :content, :presence => true, :uniqueness => true

      has_many :options,
        :foreign_key => "refinery_papers_question_id",
        :class_name => "Refinery::Papers::Option",
        :dependent => :destroy

      accepts_nested_attributes_for :options,
        :allow_destroy => true

    end
  end
end 

Option Model:

    module Refinery
       module Papers
         class Option < Refinery::Core::BaseModel

           self.table_name = 'refinery_papers_options'

           attr_accessible :content, :position, :refinery_papers_question_id

           validates :content, :presence => true

           belongs_to :question,
            :class_name => 'Refinery::Papers::Question',
            :foreign_key => :refinery_papers_question_id

          end
        end
      end

In views Form for nested fields is like this :

<%= f.fields_for :refinery_papers_options do |option_form| %>
   <div class='field'>
     <%= option_form.label :content, "Option" %><br/>
     <%= option_form.text_area :content, :class => "wymeditor widest" %><br/>
    </div>
   <div class='field'>
     <%= option_form.label :_destroy, "Remove Option" -%>
     <%= option_form.check_box :_destroy -%>    
   </div>
 <% end %>

When i tried this on rails console i got this stack

refinerycms image not loading - dragonfly error

I'm working on developing a refinerycms rails app that was working good locally and now i've moved it to my VPS and I was having issues with images that i uploaded through refinerycms not loading and i've been reading that i needed to upgrade my version of imagemagick. I upgraded from 6.2.8 to 6.7.8. Now the images all load on some pages, but not on the admin side.

What is causing this issue? Here's the stacktrace of the error.

I've added the code below to my config/application.rb file as suggested here and it helped some of the files show up, and but i'm still unable to upload a file through the app and part of this stacktrace is shown below.

config/application.rb contains this

Rails Bootstrap Navbar and refineryCMS

Problems installing imagemagick

Im trying to start my first refinery cms project, and am already having trouble. I am trying to get imagemagick going, and am getting errors. I looked on stackoverflow about changing permissions to my profile, or the directories that have problems, also uninstalling and reinstalling, but so far no luck. I was hoping maybe someone could walk me through fixing this. Thanks so much.

 Mac-Pro:local user$ brew install imagemagick
 Error: You must `brew link jpeg' before imagemagick can be installed

Refinerycms - Adding an image field to the blog engine

I have a refinerycms app with the community blog engine installed on it. I would like to add an image field to the blog_post so that I can choose a main image for the post and have it show in my views.

I've tried adding an image field, no joy. Then I looked at one of my other custom engines with an image field and that uses image_id to link to the main image table, so I tried adding an image_id field instead and the editing the blog_post model to have the same 'belongs_to" line. THe edit page for the blog loads, and the image picker partial works, but when I hit save it looks like nothing is being sent to my table.

One thing that concerns me is when I created my custom engine with the image field, I specified it as the field type image. This appears to have created the image_id field on the back end, and set everything up so I can still reference an image class. Adding an image field to the blog didn't do that, just created a field type called image. When inspecting the tables for my custom engine, there is no field type called image, so somewhere there is some transformation magic that I am not able to recreate.

Currently I have the following code:

Created this migration:

class AddPictureToBlog < ActiveRecord::Migration
 def self.up
   add_column :blog_posts, :main_image_id, :integer
 end

 def self.down
   remove_column :blog_posts, :main_image_id
 end
end

Added this to the blog_post model:

  belongs_to :main_image_id, :class_name => 'Image'

and have this on the view:

    <%= f.label :main_image_id -%>
<%= render :partial => "/shared/admin/image_picker", :locals => {
      :f => f,
      :field => :main_image_id,
      :image => @blog_post.main_image_id,
      :toggle_image_display => false
    } %>

The custom engine doesn't even refer to the _id field, so I dont know which links im missing here. Any help would be greatly appreciated. It may not be a refinerycms specific problem at all - I am new at rails so there maybe some basics im missing here.

Thanks!

How to add h4 tag to refinerycms editor?

rails refinerycms s3 upload error

I'm trying to configure RefineryCMS to use Fog for S3 uploads. Here's the error I'm getting:

ArgumentError in Refinery::Admin::ImagesController#create
The following keys are invalid: :url

My configuration in config/initializers/refinery/core.rb:

config.s3_bucket_name = '(mybucket)'
config.s3_access_key_id = '(mykey)'
config.s3_secret_access_key = '(mysecret)'
config.s3_backend = true

Any ideas?

Augmenting a model from an external gem

I'm using refinerycms in our site to let the less technical staff update content. Inside the gem, they have a Page class that maps each top level page on the site. I'd like to use the acts_as_taggable gem on this Page class. Now I can add the acts_as_taggle declaration directly to the page.rb file, but then I'd have to maintain a separate git repo to track differences between my version and the official release.

Based on some other questions here on SO I created an initializer and extension like so:

lib/page_extensions.rb:

module Pants
  module Extensions

    module Page
      module ClassMethods
        def add_taggable
          acts_as_taggable
        end
      end

      def self.included(base)
        base.extend(ClassMethods).add_taggable
      end

    end

  end
end

config/initializers/pants.rb

require 'page_extensions'

Page.send :include, Pants::Extensions::Page

app/views/layouts/application.html.erb

Tags: <%= @page.tag_list %>

The first time I request a page from the server it correctly outputs all the tags on the page. However, if I hit refresh I instead get a NoMethodError indicating that tag_list is undefined.

I'm new to rails so perhaps my assumptions are wrong, but I expected that call to Page.send would make a permanent change to the Page class rather than to a specific instance of the class. So how would I get the acts_as_taggable added to the Page class on each request?

How to install Refinery CMS using Rails 4

I previously never had a problem with Refinery. I was refreshing my knowledge by following along to the tutorial http://railscasts.com/episodes/332-refinery-cms-basics .Then when I created a new app with Refinery CMS, I got this error

Bundler could not find compatible versions for gem "actionmailer":
  In Gemfile:
    refinerycms (~> 2.1.0) ruby depends on
      actionmailer (< 3.3, >= 3.1.3) ruby

    rails (= 4.0.0) ruby depends on
      actionmailer (4.0.0)

But should not these things be there by default with the CMS? why would there be errors only now?

Relation already exists during rake migration

I have installed a blog engine to refinerycms which is working perfectly.

Now I have generated a migration with some table fields changes (of course not refinerycms or blog tables), but I'm getting an error:

== CreateBlogStructure: migrating ============================================
-- create_table("refinery_blog_posts", {:id=>true})
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence "refinery_blog_posts_id_seq1" for serial column "refinery_blog_posts.id"
rake aborted!
An error has occurred, this and all later migrations canceled:

PG::Error: ERROR: relation "refinery_blog_posts" already exists
: CREATE TABLE "refinery_blog_posts" ("id" serial primary key, "title" character varying(255), "body" text, "draft" boolean, "published_at" timestamp, "created_at" timestamp NOT NULL, "updated_at" timestamp NOT NULL)
