Admin plugin list editing problems

Archive

I’m having trouble getting the admin plugin to save changes to arrays, i.e. type: list. I can add items just fine, but modifying or deleting them via admin plugin doesn’t work — except in the advanced mode. The list blueprint snippet here:

— yaml
header.buttons:
type: list
label: Buttons
fields:
.image:
type: text
label: Image
.url:
type: text
label: URL

Hmm… not sure that looks pretty much accurate. I just compared it to the features modular page blueprint as provided by antimatter theme:

        features:
          type: tab
          title: Features
          fields:
            header.features:
              name: features
              type: list
              label: Features

              fields:
                .icon:
                  type: text
                  label: Icon
                .header:
                  type: text
                  label: Header
                .text: 
                  type: text
                  label: Text

I confirmed i was able to add, then save, then remove a new item in a Modular features page.

perhaps you can create an issue: https://github.com/getgrav/grav-plugin-admin/issues and provide steps we can use to reproduce it exactly.

Thanks @rhukster! I was using Appi theme in this particular test. I’ll investigate more.

It’s something to do with how I extend a blueprint. I’ll need to do some more experimenting to see if it’s something I do or if it’s a bug :slight_smile:

Ok, returning to this :slight_smile:

As I said above, I’m having trouble removing or editing list items in the admin.

To add a global option on the Admin tool’s Pages/Options tab I’ve created the file /themes/mytheme/blueprints/default.yaml with this content:

title: Default
extends@:
  - type: default

form:
  fields:
    tabs:
      type: tabs
      active: 1
      fields:
        options:
          fields:
            header: 
              type: section
              title: Header
              underline: true
              fields:
                header.nav_hidden:
                  type: toggle
                  label: Hide navigation
                  highlight: 0
                  default: 0
                  options:
                    1: 'Yes'
                    0: 'No'
                  validate:
                    type: bool
                header.header_transparent:
                  type: toggle
                  label: Transparent header
                  highlight: 0
                  default: 0
                  options:
                    1: 'Yes'
                    0: 'No'
                  validate:
                    type: bool
                header.nav_bright:
                  type: toggle
                  label: White logo and links
                  highlight: 0
                  default: 0
                  options:
                    1: 'Yes'
                    0: 'No'
                  validate:
                    type: bool

If I remove the above file editing/deleting list items works fine. Is that a bug or am I somehow adding global items wrong? In case it’s a bug I already posted an issue on GH as well.

Seems like when I change the line13 header: to something else editing/removal starts working again.

Also note that there is a current issue with Blueprint list-fields: #1285, wherein a temporary fix is adding array: true.

i think header: might well be causing confusion to Grav as it already has a page.header variable.

Thanks all! Yes, the docs state this pretty clearly — I’ve probably started to edit the line to header.custom_page_options:, but got distracted. So essentially I’m blaming the kids.
