rake db:migrate

Upgrading older version of cms-fortress:¶ ↑

rails generate cms:fortress:upgrade
rake db:migrate

Adding custom role details¶ ↑

You can create a custom role ability via a three-step process.

1: Edit config/roles.yml and add the new role under the category you wish.

contents:
  - pages
  - files
  - page.review
  - page.publish
designs:
  - layouts
  - snippets
settings:
  - sites
  - roles
  - users
  - *my_role_detail*

2: Configure cms-fortress to add a new resource. Add this in an initializer:

Cms::Fortress.configure do |config|
  config.settings_resources << {
    :name => 'my_role_detail',
    :title => 'i18n.label.title', # this is passed to the t() function - can be plain text
    :path => 'admin_my_role_details_path'
  }
  # the other two lists are "content_resources" and "design_resources"

  #adding a super user only menu item
  config.settings_resources << {
    :name => 'my_role_detail',
    :title => 'i18n.label.title', # this is passed to the t() function - can be plain text
    :path => 'admin_my_role_details_path',
    :super_user => true
  }

  # adding a divider menu item (Wide Theme only)
  config.content_resources << {name: 'divider'}

  #adding a menu header item (Wide Theme only)
  config.content_resources << {name: 'dropdown-header', title: "i18n.my.header.label"}

end

The path is eval’d at runtime, so you can use Rails helper methods such as current_user or @site in it. If the result is nil, the link will not show up in the left nav bar.

3: Restart the server. Go into each Role you have defined and click “Load New Roles”. Voila!

Other configuration¶ ↑

You can turn off page workflow or page caching via configuration and you can set the theme to :wide or :default:

Cms::Fortress.configure do |config|
  config.theme = :wide
  config.enable_page_workflow = false
  config.enable_page_caching = false
end

Wide Theme¶ ↑

With wide theme, the layout and menus are being compacted so that you have all the area for authoring. Files are also being nicely integrated to the WYSIWYG editor (tinymce). Below are the fetures for wide theme:

• Compact Layout and Menus

• Responsive Layout

• Fullcreen Editing

• Integrated image file attachment

• Integrated video file attachment

• Integrated link file attachment
