Winter CMS - Blocks Theme
=========================

[](#winter-cms---blocks-theme)

Winter CMS theme that demonstrates the use of "repeater groups" in [custom page fields](https://github.com/wintercms/wn-pages-plugin/blob/main/docs/documentation.md#custom-page-fields) to assemble static pages with customizable building sections and blocks. Each section, depending on his type, can have one or more blocks.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

(let assume you're in the root of your winter installation)

### Using composer

[](#using-composer)

Just run this command

```
composer require hounddd/wn-blocks-theme

```

### Cloning repo

[](#cloning-repo)

Clone this repo into your winter themes folder.

```
cd themes
git clone https://github.com/Hounddd/wn-blocks-theme blocks

```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

NOTE: the name **blocks** is important, if you change the themes name you have to alter some files to match the path.

- the groups attribute in the `layouts/default.htm` repeater.
- the groups attribute in the `meta/sections.yaml` repeater.

In your backend, check for the [static pages plugin](https://github.com/wintercms/wn-pages-plugin) to be installed. If you go to the "Pages" and edit home page, you now have a blocks tab where you can add different sections/blocks, enter data and even rearrange their order. Custom page fields add custom fields to the page editor form, called *Syntax Fields*

Adjust to your needs
--------------------

[](#adjust-to-your-needs)

See [Winter CMS backend forms](https://wintercms.com/docs/backend/forms) documentation to see how setting new field definitions.

### Adding sections

[](#adding-sections)

To add more section types, edit `meta/sections.yaml` file.

In your field definition simply add

```
my-section-type:
    name: My awesome section
    description: display a section
    icon: icon-table
    content:
        type: repeater
        prompt: Add new block
        style: accordion
        groups: themes/blocks/meta/blocks.yaml

```

**Important**: Each section definition has a corresponding partial file named `partials/blocks/{section_name}.htm`. The form data is passed as 'data'.

    fields:
        content:
