Hi Mike,

Is this a particularly heavy site? Can you post your extended diagnostics report from Settings > Diagnostics > Extended?

(Quote from j-pinder)

It's not required. What you need is a page that is registered with Perch. If a page is not registered with Perch, some of the page functions lose meaning in this context.

If Perch encounters a perch_content() call, it automatically…

A blog post is not a page. So on post.php you need to determine whether the slug from the URL matches a real blog post and proceed accordingly. This means your post.php page should respond with a 404 status code if the post is not found.

See the post …

You can use the filter option to show every post except the post with the current post slug, like this:

Thanks Hussein again for your help, any further assistance on this issue via your app would be very welcome.

Hi drewm

Perch very rarely gets in my way as a developer, but it does when it doesn't allow me to add custom attributes to Perch form tags. Thanks to JS libraries like Vue and Alpine it's become common to use attributes like x-*, v-*, @click, …

The ID doesn't change even if you rename the category. Category filtering require you to use category paths.

The problem is that the Shop app's index does not get updated when a category is updated. I may be able to add something to Pipit Catalog to…

OK. If only the ID is getting updated is it possible to filter on that?

So I'm adding a blog to my website which is going well so far.

I'm trying to keep the blog very simple. There's only 2 parts. Post List and Post. I'm not using any tags as it's unlikely there will be enough posts to make it relevant.

After a blog…

This is because Perch indexes the category path rather than ID for products. The behaviour is not specific to Perch Shop though. This is perhaps something for drewm to address in v4.

Second half of that debug:

(Code, 51 lines)

Here is the debug information from the category page showing the product list:

(Code, 65 lines)


Again the template: /templates/shop/products/list.html is an unedited copy from the app folder.

Here is the debug from the product edit screen:

(Code, 23 lines)


Note: As of this stage the product.html template is an unedited copy of the one from the app folder.

I'm currently testing Perch Shop and have encountered a strange bug whereby changing the category structure the products set causes the product .

Example: I have products assigned to a category in the product set doors:

Products > Doors

These are…

Ah great to know. Thank you thank you thank you for all your help hus_hmd

For anyone else looking for the final code for all this, here's how to create your blog search:

Your master page calls the search content, Blog specific, sorted, using a…

I'll have to look into this, but I can't provide support for this on here. I've opened a GitHub issue. You can subscribe to it if you want to be notified for comments/updates. Feel free to comment on there too.

Hello Hussein,

Any ideas why re-ordering the products using pipit catalog would initially break the product category filtering.

Following a re-order in product catalog, all the products disappear, and only show again once each product is saved?

Even…

Hi,

So I have Perch runway site and as soon as the site has any kind of traffic ( like just 20 people ) the site completely dies.

The server spec is ample:

12 Core
12GB Ram
500GB HDD

The server tech people are telling me that the code and/or…

The Perch Blog app's search handler searches the post title (from the postTitle field), description (from the postDescHTML field) and tags.

(Quote from dosa)


No, but you can write your own search handler.

Awesome! That did it. I didn't realize it had to be specifically off, I commented it out thinking that removed it. So I guess there was a pagination loop happening. Thanks for the fix!

On a related note, what is the search searching - blog post…
