New Module: Structure - Uses entries to create a page hierarchy for static and listing pages

@Bransin We have a UI redesign in the works for page collapsing after the EE2 port is finished. Structure has pagination tags and search works the exact same as always, you just use page_uri and page_url. As far as categories, you can still use them, just not always in the traditional way you’re used to. It’s quite flexible, but I agree we need more KB articles explaining working with categories. On the list.

@illustrationdan Never seen that, make sure your system pref settings are correct and you have the CP URL filled under Structure » Settings if you’re using a masked CP. Try Ira’s idea as well, you egenrally have to republish when using lg htaccess generator.

Hi Travis,

I was wondering if you had a chance to look into the incompatibilities between Structure and EE v1.6.9 …

Awesome! Thanks for the quick service…

I was wondering if there is any way to include something in the navigation that isn’t built into structure? For example, I have two weblogs. One utilizes structure, the other doesn’t. In my nav for the one that uses structure I want to include a static link in the full_nav to a page in the other weblog. Any ideas how to accomplish this?

I’m assuming your other weblog uses the default group/template way? You could add an empty page in structure that points to the right group/template (modify the page_uri in the structure tab). I’ve made a habit of including most of my pages in Structure, even if I’m not using it to display it’s content.

You are correct in the assumption of the default group/template way. Your solution is actually exactly what I needed, however, unless it’s the root of the other weblog it is stripping out any forward slashes. I’m trying to link to calendar/category/all_events, but when I save it ends up as calendarcategoryall_events.

My other dilemna is the need to create a menu link to a pdf file. I’m assuming this can’t be done using the method above since it’s not another weblog, but rather an actual file. Is there any way to inject a static link to a file into the full_nav?

/** -------------------------------------
/**  Tag: uri
/** 
/**  Returns a uri for the passed entry_id.
/** -------------------------------------*/
function uri()
{
    global $PREFS, $TMPL, $FNS;

    // Retrieve entry_ids to find uri for
    $entry_id = $TMPL->fetch_param('entry_id');
    
    // Get site pages data
    $site_pages = $PREFS->ini('site_pages');
        
    // Get all pages
    $pages = $this->get_data();
    
    // Make sure array indices are incremental (0..X)
    $pages = array_values($pages);
    $home = trim($FNS->fetch_site_index(0, 0), '/');
    
    $page_uri = $site_pages['uris'][$entry_id];    
    $item_uri = $FNS->remove_double_slashes($home . $page_uri);
    
    return $item_uri;

}

I wrote this method to use for search results so I can find the URI of a structure entry. Feel free to use it Travis.

I also had some questions about Structure licensing, any chance you could shoot me an email at turner (at) visionpointmarketing [dot] com?

Thanks!

Hi All!

I’ve just installed Structure, following all of the instructions.

Looks fine on the admin side of things, and I have made sure its using a specific template within the settings.

However, when I view the page, EE is trying to find another template to make use of, and then when it does not find it, it reverts to using the site/index template.

Under template debugging, i get the following:

(0.000013) - Begin Template Processing - (0.000142) URI: /about/ (0.000153) Path.php Template: / (0.000169) Retrieving Template (0.000181) Parsing Template URI (0.005642) Showing index. Template not found: about (0.005665) Retrieving Template from Database: site/index (0.008596) Template Found

I want Structure to use a specific template, in this case site/static - which exists.

Anyone know what I’m doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!

Are you sure your htaccess file is correct? Open a ticket here for more help: https://structure.tenderapp.com

UPDATED: An upgrade to Structure 2.1.1 fixed the issue.

Anyone using Structure 2.0.7 and Solspace User 3.1.1? Im getting this error below when trying to display a registration form. Not sure this is the right place to post but structure is the one throwing the error. Registration code below also. This code was in a normal template (which was working). I was not using structure but then I added a structure page and assigned it this template then started getting the error. Deleted the structure entry and created a new template but no dice…it still remains.

A PHP Error was encountered Severity: Notice Message: Undefined variable: list_item_id Filename: structure/mod.structure.php Line Number: 204

{exp:user:register form:name="register" return="user/sign_up" username_override="yes"}

               Submit the word you see above:

               <input type="text" name="captcha" value="" size="25" maxlength="32" style="width:300px;" /><br >
          {/if}
          <input type="submit" value="Submit" class="submit" /></p>
          {if no_results}
          You're currently logged in.
          {/if} 
          {/exp:user:register}

Just having a problem with a structure installtion, running 1.6.8 running structure 2.1.1 I don’t have any entries under structure yet.

When try to save a new weblog or update an existing weblog

Keep getting this:

MySQL ERROR:

Error Number: 1064

Description: You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘DIV 2) AS numChildren FROM exp_structure AS node INNER

Query: SELECT node.*, (COUNT(parent.lft) - 2) AS depth, if((node.rgt - node.lft) = 1,1,0) AS isLeaf, ((node.rgt - node.lft - 1) DIV 2) AS numChildren FROM exp_structure AS node INNER JOIN exp_structure AS parent ON node.lft BETWEEN parent.lft AND parent.rgt WHERE node.entry_id = ‘8’ GROUP BY node.lft LIMIT 1

Any Idea’s?

first time structure user here. quick question about page_uri. For some reason when I use the tag {page_uri} in the front end, the index.php gets ignored. meaning, my links look like www.domain.com/about. They should look like www.domain.com/index.php/about

Can anybody point me into the right direction?
