@agajankush blog post has a single placeholder where you can add any plugin you need. if you need multiple placeholders you can have a look at static placeholders (http://docs.django-cms.org/en/latest/introduction/02-templates_placeholders.html#static-placeholders), but adding different static placeholder for each post is a bit hackish

@alessandro87_gitlab this should already be the case. the published manager method ensure that only posts with start date in the past are shown. Be aware that as admin in edit mode, you will see all the future published post (by design) to ensure you can reach them. But as anonymous user you should only see "past" published posts, if this is not the case, it's definitely a bug

@yakky I want only one placeholder in the main blog page where all the blogs are listed.
Basically I need to create 2 columns with blog on one side and the other column will house the Placeholders where the user can add stuff they want.

Iacopo Spalletti

@yakky

@agajankush in that case you can use django cms' static placeholders, which are made exactly for your use case
you only need to customize the post_list.html template (https://github.com/nephila/djangocms-blog/blob/develop/djangocms_blog/templates/djangocms_blog/post_list.html) to fit your design

@agajankush

Look at that Thank you @yakky

Iacopo Spalletti

@yakky

:top:

you're welcome :)

Ashutosh_Gajankush

@agajankush

For anyone if they want to add custom placeholders this is the way I did it
Include cms_tags in the load section like this

Then just add the placeholder on the page wherever you want,

Ashutosh_Gajankush

@agajankush

@yakky I have another question can we filter or change the user selection for a blog post?

Ashutosh_Gajankush

@agajankush

I am working on project with multisites and users are linked to each site so I don't want to show all the users for all the sites

Iacopo Spalletti

@yakky

@agajankush you mean in the admin? It's doable but there is currently no hook to do that, you must extend the admin and adapt PostAdminForm.

Ashutosh_Gajankush

@agajankush

Yeah in the admin section. I went that route but thought of asking if there is a way that you guys have designed. Nvm thank you.

@Amrizhan

Hi!! Who can share his template on aldryn people??? default templates is really useless

Danny Waser

@wasertech_gitlab

Hi @Amrizhan, since every website is different, django CMS (or even django) applications will only give you basic templates to work with. It is your role to make those templates work with your particular website. If don't have any particularly good HTML/CSS skills, this task can prove to be difficult. I suggest you to start from an already existing design. You can find plenty of HTML templates on the web. My advice is to start with Bootstrap 4 templates as it's easier to start with. I like to use Cololib's templates as they are free to experiment with and only cost USD 21.- once you are ready to remove the copyrights inside the footer. If you don't want to adapt those templates for your website, you can checkout my implementation of Colorlib's template on my website. Hope this helps you. Have a nice experience using django CMS !

Hi!
On my laptop I'm building a Django CMS site. It has a few pages, including one with an instance of djangocms-blog.
When I try to deploy it to Heroku, after I do the schema migrations I can see there is no data related to the djangocms-blog.
I must be missing something as I'm just starting with django CMS.

How do I migrate the data of my CMS pages and the rest, to my production environment in Heroku?
I tried looking into the docs but I couldnt find anything. Does this mean I have to use DIVIO?

Thanks in advance for your help

Danny Waser

@wasertech_gitlab

Hello @pablojr1971, your production environment (your Heroku server) is something completely different from your development environment (your laptop). Generally, you should use more robust databases in production such as PostgreSQL for exemple, while in development you might want to use a simple mySQL database inside a file. In other words, what is in your development website is not what's on your real production website. You'll have to recreate what you have already made in development. There are various tools for exporting your Django-CMS plugins in JSON format to export it easily from one Django-CMS server to another. You should checkout djangocms-transfer if you have already a lot of data inside your development server. Hope this helps. Have fun with Django CMS ! EDIT: You can also create your production database from the development's one, but since you're new to Django(-CMS), I wouldn't recommend that you do so as it can be tricky.

Thank you @wasertech_gitlab !
In case somebody is interested, this is what worked for me

Hello, I'm looking at putting together a CMS project with multi-site support. I've setup lots of CMS projects, but never with multiple sites from the same system.
What's the status of djangocms-multisite?

The dynamic SITE_ID is the kind of approach we're looking for to make things as dynamic as possible. The ultimate goal being to add a Client object to the database & their site start working without having to change the django project.

Iacopo Spalletti

@yakky

Hi @markwalker__twitter while a little behing on the maintenance side due to the lack of time, djangocms-multisite is working fine for us on some production websites

we have not used it for massive deployments with many sites to it (IIRC our max is 3), but we have not had any concurrency issues, so it should be fine with larger setups

Mark Walker

@markwalker__twitter

Thanks @yakky
We're not looking at a particularly large setup yet (unless sales go very well!!). What we want is an easy to maintain system which offers flexibility and lower server costs than what we've been doing lately by setting up very specific applications each with their own stack.

Do you think it'll work on a 2.2 site? The repo says support for 1.11, but I've not looked at how it's setup yet to see if 2.2 is a no-go.

Iacopo Spalletti

@yakky

there is a PR to make it work on django 2.2 (nephila/djangocms-multisite#27), but it needs some polishing before merge

I might have some time to give this repo some love early next week with the kid on vacation :)

I should be able to release a version tested on Django 2.2 / 3

In a few days

and it would be awesome to have more feedback on it

Mark Walker

@markwalker__twitter

Fantastic, thanks again for you help @yakky
I'll hold fire on putting this app into the site at the moment then & we'll start with a more basic approach with environment variables. I'll put a watcher on releases

Iacopo Spalletti

@yakky

stay tuned :D

Mark Walker

@markwalker__twitter

A guy I work with was keen to start trying out CMS & pushing code so I tried to install that PR, found some issues & thought I'd make some fixes, drop some old python & I ended up with a new PR worthy fork; nephila/djangocms-multisite#29

Iacopo Spalletti

@yakky

I'm currently on the move, I will check it later, but it looks like you saved me quite a bit of work :)

🎉

Mark Walker

@markwalker__twitter

No problem. :joy:

Iacopo Spalletti

@yakky

T first glance it seems I can just merge it and ship it in a new version straight away 🙇‍♂️

Mark Walker

@markwalker__twitter

Yeah in theory it's good to go. I didn't bump version because I didn't know what you'd want to do with that, but I updated the setup & readme supported versions so not much left after there I suppose

Iacopo Spalletti

@yakky

Yes, I saw that. I prefer to bump the version myself, I want to check if there are more easy things in the backlog that I can ship in the new version. But I will release a new version during the weekend with your pr as a minimum

Iacopo Spalletti

@yakky

@markwalker__twitter djangocms-multisite 0.3.0 released :)
thanks a lot for your contribution!
(biggest thing still missing is a proper documentation)

Mark Walker

@markwalker__twitter

Thanks @yakky
I can see that on github, but not on pypi; https://pypi.org/project/djangocms-multisite/

Iacopo Spalletti

@yakky

@markwalker__twitter apparently there are some rst errors in the readme which prevented the pypi update :eyes: fixing soon

Iacopo Spalletti

@yakky

0.3.1 is out on pypi :)

Mark Walker

@markwalker__twitter

Thanks. I had a problem migrating from an empty database thanks to django-multisite template loader.
If their loader is left out for the initial migration it works, but that's a nightmare to manage, so I've setup a PR for that project as well.

Mark Walker

@markwalker__twitter

Does anybody know of a solution to authentication between domains?

We're creating a CMS platform (single database), using djangocms-multisite which will create a Site object for a client when they're added to our Client table. I'll use the CMS api to create some default content, but then when navigating to those new pages on that site, I need a solution to be authenticated.

If it's a subdomain it's just done with SESSION_COOKIE_DOMAIN but in all likelihood we'll be looking at top level domains pointing at our system & creating site objects for them.

Iacopo Spalletti

@yakky

No solution from the top of my head

Mark Walker

@markwalker__twitter

Thanks. Might have to look at a custom auth backend & some token type passing, or a tracking pixel
