It’s almost the end of June and there still hasn’t been any useful information about SCA. 🤷‍♂️

granttransition · Jun 2nd 2021

Sorry if this has been mentioned already, I haven't been through all the posts.

A native way to handle publishing would be great, so published, unplublished etc for all types of content including pages.

I appreciate this can be coded in, but a native way of handling this would be nice.

Thanks for the speedy update Gareth S

Any news on SCA? The clock is ticking on this one…

Shop App/Stripe SCA is really urgent now, good to know it’s being looked at

Actually I found a way, I used <perch:categories id="perch_categories" set="blog">. So id="perch_categories" instead of id="categories".

Thanks all for the help. My final card template now looks like this…

Code

<div class="card">
<div class="card__head">
<perch:categories id="perch_categories" set="blog">
<perch:if id="catTitle" value="video">
<img class="cat-icon" src="/img/video.svg" alt="Play YouTube Video" width="60" height="60">
</perch:if>
<perch:if id="catTitle" value="podcast">
<img class="cat-icon" src="/img/podcast.svg" alt="Play Podcast" width="60" height="60">
</perch:if>
</perch:categories>
<img src="<perch:content id="image">">
</div>
<div class="card__body">
<perch:categories id="perch_categories" set="blog">
<img src="<perch:category id="icon" type="image">">
</perch:categories>
<h1><perch:content id="postTitle" type="text" label="Title"></h1>
<h2><perch:content id="introText" type="text" label="Intro Text"></h2>
</div>

Oh really? Thats odd then, as the category stuff doesn't work in this template…

Code

<div class="card">
<div class="card__head">
<perch:categories id="categories" set="blog">
<perch:if id="catTitle" value="video">
<img class="cat-icon" src="/img/video.svg" alt="Play YouTube Video" width="60" height="60">
</perch:if>
<perch:if id="catTitle" value="podcast">
<img class="cat-icon" src="/img/podcast.svg" alt="Play Podcast" width="60" height="60">
</perch:if>
</perch:categories>
<img src="<perch:content id="image">">
</div>
<div class="card__body">
<perch:categories id="categories" set="blog">
<img src="<perch:category id="icon" type="image">">
</perch:categories>
<h1><perch:content id="postTitle" type="text" label="Title"></h1>
<h2><perch:content id="introText" type="text" label="Intro Text"></h2>
</div>

When that is called via perch_blog_custom everything works as expected?

granttransition · Apr 27th 2021

Hi Byron Fitzgerald ,

With some tweaks we have success! However, this does cause one further issue…

Here is the current code

PHP

<section class="section-home-blog home-typography">
<div class="wrapper">
<?php
$news[] =perch_blog_custom([
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'skip-template' => true,
'sort-order' => 'DESC',
'count' => 1,
'category' => 'podcast',
])[0];
$news[] =perch_blog_custom([
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'skip-template' => true,
'sort-order' => 'DESC',
'category' => 'video',
'count' => 1,
])[0];
$news[] =perch_blog_custom([
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'skip-template' => true,
'sort-order' => 'DESC',
'category' => 'blog',
'count' => 1,
])[0];
$news[] = perch_blog_custom([
// 'start' => 1,
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'skip-template' => true,
'sort-order' => 'DESC',
'category' => 'news',
'count' => 3,
])[0];
$news[] = perch_blog_custom([
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'skip-template' => true,
'sort-order' => 'DESC',
'category' => 'news',
'count' => 3,
])[1];
$news[] = perch_blog_custom([
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'skip-template' => true,
'sort-order' => 'DESC',
'category' => 'news',
'count' => 3,
])[2];
function date_sort($a, $b) {
return strtotime($b['postDateTime']) - strtotime($a['postDateTime']);
}
usort($news, "date_sort");
perch_template('content/home/_blog-card.html', $news);
?>
</div>
</section>

Which now calls the content/home/_blog-card.html. Ideally I wanted to use the /blog/home/_blog-card.html template as it uses the category info to do other stuff.

Here is that template…

HTML

<div class="card">
<div class="card__head">
<perch:categories id="categories" set="blog">
<perch:if id="catTitle" value="video">
<img class="cat-icon" src="/img/video.svg" alt="Play YouTube Video" width="60" height="60">
</perch:if>
<perch:if id="catTitle" value="podcast">
<img class="cat-icon" src="/img/podcast.svg" alt="Play Podcast" width="60" height="60">
</perch:if>
</perch:categories>
<img src="<perch:blog id="image">">
</div>
<div class="card__body">
<perch:categories id="categories" set="blog">
<img src="<perch:category id="icon" type="image">">
</perch:categories>
<h1><perch:blog id="postTitle" type="text" label="Title"></h1>
<h2><perch:blog id="introText" type="text" label="Intro Text"></h2>
</div>
</div>

So whilst I can move this to content/home/… and change perch:blog to perch:content. The same is not true for the perch:categories

Thanks ever so much for the help thus far…

granttransition · Apr 27th 2021

I now get a Template file not found: templates/home/_blog-card.html even though the template is defiantly in the right place.

/templates/content/home/_blog-card.html

Debug also shows…

Code

Array
(
[type] => 8
[message] => Trying to access array offset on value of type null
[file] => /Users/grant/Sites/Development/180-Cargilfield-Perch-Updates/cms/templates/layouts/home-blog-grid.php
[line] => 33
)

Which is…

Code

return strtotime($b[0]['postDateTime']) - strtotime($a[0]['postDateTime']);

granttransition · Apr 27th 2021

I really appreciate the help, but unfortunately this outputs the template, but the perch fields are empty.

So there is no confusion, here is the current code…

PHP

<section class="section-home-blog home-typography">
<div class="wrapper">
<?php
$news[] =perch_blog_custom([
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'skip-template' => true,
'sort-order' => 'DESC',
'count' => 1,
'category' => 'podcast'
])[0];
$news[] =perch_blog_custom([
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'skip-template' => true,
'sort-order' => 'DESC',
'category' => 'video',
'count' => 1,
])[0];
$news[] =perch_blog_custom([
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'skip-template' => true,
'sort-order' => 'DESC',
'category' => 'blog',
'count' => 1,
])[0];
$news[] = perch_blog_custom([
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'skip-template' => true,
'sort-order' => 'DESC',
'category' => 'news',
'count' => 3,
])[0];
function date_sort($a, $b) {
return strtotime($b[0]['postDateTime']) - strtotime($a[0]['postDateTime']);
}
usort($news, "date_sort");
perch_template('blog/home/_blog-card.html', $news);
?>
</div>
</section>

That's is what I was hoping for, this breaks the site though unfortunately

granttransition · Apr 27th 2021

This is pretty close to what I am after…

PHP

<?php
perch_blog_custom([
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'template' => 'home/_blog-card.html',
'sort-order' => 'DESC',
'count' => 1,
'category' => 'podcast'
]);
perch_blog_custom([
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'template' => 'home/_blog-card.html',
'sort-order' => 'DESC',
'category' => 'video',
'count' => 1,
]);
perch_blog_custom([
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'template' => 'home/_blog-card.html',
'sort-order' => 'DESC',
'category' => 'blog',
'count' => 1,
]);
perch_blog_custom([
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'template' => 'home/_blog-card.html',

I just need them in date order now…

granttransition · Apr 27th 2021

Hello,

I am trying to output blog posts in date order whilst limiting other parameters such as the category.

Ultimately I want six blog posts listed in date order; however, I am always showing x1 video, x1 podcast, x1 blog and x3 news.

Whilst I have come close with a pure PHP way of achieving the goal, I've hit a snag whilst trying to output the Category Icon I have created. This appears to be ignoring the category array altogether?

PHP

<section class="section-home-blog home-typography">
<div class="wrapper">
<?php
$news = array();
$news[] = perch_blog_custom([
'category' => array('podcast'),
'count' => 1,
'return-html' => false,
'skip-template' => true,
'raw' => true,
]);
$news[] = perch_blog_custom([
'category' => array('video'),
'count' => 1,
'return-html' => false,
'skip-template' => true,
]);
$news[] = perch_blog_custom([
'category' => array('blog'),
'count' => 1,
'return-html' => false,
'skip-template' => true,
]);
$news[] = perch_blog_custom([
'category' => array('news'),
'count' => 3,
'return-html' => false,
'skip-template' => true,
]);
function date_sort($a, $b) {
return strtotime($b[0]['postDateTime']) - strtotime($a[0]['postDateTime']);
}
usort($news, "date_sort");
print_r($news);
foreach($news as $p):?>
<div class="card">
<div class="card__head">
<perch:categories id="categories" set="blog">
<img src="<?php echo $p[0]['image'];?>">
</perch:categories>
</div>
<div class="card__body">
<img src="<?php echo $p[0]['categories']['icon'];?>">
<h1><?php echo $p[0]['postTitle'];?></h1>
<h2><?php echo $p[0]['introText'];?></h2>
</div>
<perch:categories id="categories" set="blog">
<p class="category"><perch:category id="catTitle" type="text"></p>
</perch:categories>
</div>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</div>
</section>

The above is my current code.

Ideally it would be nice to build up some filters and then just do something like…

PHP

perch_blog_custom([
'sort' => 'postDateTime',
'template' => 'home/_blog-card.html',
'sort-order' => 'DESC',
'filter' => $news,
]);

Appreciate any helped offered

Quote from damiandrozdowicz

That's a very reassuring George G . I feel a relief now that I won't have to move x number of websites away to a different platform simply because SCA compliance.

Personally I am becoming less confident this issue will ever be looked at. It's been two months now without any update on what is going on. That's on top of the two years we have been suffering the Perch radio silence.

Sorry, should mentioned that fundraising.php has include($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/####/runtime.php'); at the head of the doc

granttransition · Feb 24th 2021

Hi,

It's been a long time since I looked at a straight Perch site and hence I have a feeling I'm about to embarrass myself. Again

I have my master page created in /templates/pages/ and this displays in my dashboard with the following settings

When I create a new page from the Fundraising => New Subpage option, I fill the next section with the relevant details

The issue is the paths that are created upon creating a new page.

To use the above as an example, my New Test page gets a location path of /fundraising/Users/Grant/####/####/####/####/fundraising/new-test.php and the ####/fundraising/new-test.php has

PHP

<?php include(str_replace('/', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, '../../../grant/####/templates/pages/fundraising.php')); ?>

When functioning correctly the above should be

PHP

<?php include(str_replace('/', DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR, '../####/templates/pages/fundraising.php'));

So I appear to have some kind of routing issue?

granttransition · Feb 23rd 2021

All my pages are sub pages. So ndwl you are absolutely right.

I'm off to hang my head in shame now. Please feel free to mock me

granttransition · Feb 23rd 2021

Although I will be adding a template, I don't think it's a requirement. I tried with just in case I'm wrong and it still doesn't work.

Thanks for the suggestion though.

The mystery continues

I'm having an issue with Navgroups not rendering? And I can't work out why.

PHP: fund-raising.php

<aside class="inner-right-column cf">
<div class="side-links-hero">
Test
<?php perch_pages_navigation(array(
'navgroup' => 'fund-raising-menu',
'levels' => 1,
)); ?>
</div>
</aside>

The above is my code from the page template which renders…

HTML: rendered-html

<aside class="inner-right-column cf">
<div class="side-links-hero">
Test
</div>
</aside>

If I add a second navgroup just to see if it renders, it does…

PHP: fund_raising.php

<aside class="inner-right-column cf">
<div class="side-links-hero">
Test
<?php perch_pages_navigation(array(
'navgroup' => 'fund-raising-menu',
'levels' => 1,
)); ?>
<?php
perch_pages_navigation(array(
'navgroup' => 'header',
'levels' => 1,
'hide-extensions' => true,
'hide-default-doc' => true,
'flat' => false,
'template' => array('main.html')
));
?>
</div>
</aside>

George G

Welcome to the new developers, I'm really pleased your working on moving Perch forward.

Stripe SCA is a rather pressing issue, my understanding is that Stripe will be enforcing in September.

Whilst I appreciate you have inherited the problem I'd like some reassurance this is going to be looked at relatively quickly. This effects a few of my Perch Shop sites and hence I need to know so I can make decissions on whether I need to move the sites. I'd prefer not to I may add, but if its not going to be looked at I will have no choice.
