Block-based Content Management System for CakePHP 3

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

[](#installation)

Load the plugin in your `config/bootstrap.php`

```
Plugin::load('Cms', ['bootstrap' => true, 'routes' => true]);

```

Add the Dispatcher Filter for CMS Widget assets to the corresponding section in your `config/bootstrap.php`

```
DispatcherFactory::add('Cms.WidgetAsset');

```

Add tables via Migrations Plugin

```
bin/cake migrations migrate --plugin Cms

```

Add configuration to your `config/app.php`

```
'Cms' => [
    'Administration' => [
        'layout' => 'Admin.default', // Layout to use for the CMS admin area
        'helpers' => [
            'CkTools.Menu' // Helpers to load in the CMS admin area
        ]
    ]
]

```

Configure a route for the frontend rendering of CMS pages (use this example and adapt to your requirements)

```
$routes->connect('/:slug', Configure::read('Cms.Frontend.renderAction'), ['routeClass' => 'Cms.SlugRoute']);

```

Using Page Attributes
---------------------

[](#using-page-attributes)

It is possible to define arbitrary page attributes to save additional data for a CMS page without having to modify the CMS schema. Data will be saved as JSON in the `cms_pages.page_attributes` field.

The CMS will look in the `Pages.attributes` path of your CMS configuration. Configuration looks like this:

```
'Pages' => [
    'attributes' => [
        'public' => [
            'type' => 'boolean',
            'label' => 'Publicly Available',
            'default' => true
        ],
        'keywords' => [
            'type' => 'text',
            'label' => 'Keywords',
            'default' => ''
        ]
    ]
]

```

Based on this configuration, input fields will be rendered in a separate "Attributes" tab in the edit screen. Attributes can later be fetched using eiher `CmsPage::getAttributes()` or `CmsPage::getAttribute($attribute)`.

Example:

```
    $this->loadComponent('Cms.Cms', [
        'permissionsCallback' => function (CmsPage $page) use ($controller) {
            return $page->getAttribute('public');
        }
    ]);

```
