Title: VA Template Framework 3.5.5 Dashboard
Post by: Tez Oner on June 23, 2012, 09:53:57 PM

Hey,

I extended the VA Template Framework 3.5.5 with a (kinda) new concept of editing pages
that its quite common in Drupal and Wordpress... a Frontend Dashboard! At the moment
it's not for download but I'm thinking of it making a script/droplet... any comments
are welcome!

To check it out login with "Demo" and "123" at: http://revamds.com/ (http://revamds.com/),
most of pages is protected but in the "playground" pages can be edited.

Cheerz,

Tez Oner

maybe it would be a nice idea to combine that whith something like the "topics" module.

Looks good - very promising for frontend editing

- is it possible to restrict editing to main content or restrict editing for one or more contentsections
- after saving maybe an autoreload of current page would be more intuitive for common users


I am curious for the used snippets etc.

Maybe looks good, but 4 JS-errors and over 170 other warnings.
There still a lot of work is to be done for the frontend, hm?

Hey,

thanks well it's a first rough version... and used the links thats already available in backend,
so tracing for example the 'save' action... takes some time but is a good one ;)

Hey,

yes it's known but it's mainly 'default' jQuery errors... as jQuery is not really W3C compliant
it's probably 'accepted' by most developers ;) and moreover on (Mac) Safari, Firefox, Chrome
and Opera the errors don't show up...

But I'm aware of it but don't have the time rewrite jQuery lol. It's not needed/added for the
backend but the VA Template Framework 3.5.5 uses it for some functions...

Cheerz,

Hey,

also thanks for the reply, in what form/way you mean...? I have some thought of (re)designing a backend theme to fit the
Dashboard edit space better but that I guess not what you mean?

Oh, i did not know this. Had no errors in the past.
I will rewrite jQuery for you (give me some hours).  :-D
