Wagtail

This has been bugging me for a while and I can't find an answer anywhere online. Why is it we generally only see pied wagtails in the street, on the road or in car parks but never in the garden. I live IN North Wales and have seen pied wagtails everywhere I've lived here, but never once in the garden. Can anyone shed some light on why that is?

wagtails index page

I use this code snippets to add extra button

class TenantButtonHelper(ButtonHelper):# Define classes for our button, here we can set an icon for exampleview_button_classnames = ["button-small", "button-secondary"]

def custom_button1(self, obj):# Define a label for our buttontext = "custom1"return {"url": self.url_helper.index_url, # decide where the button links to"label": "Custom Action 1","classname": self.finalise_classname(self.view_button_classnames),"title": text,}

def custom_button2(self, obj):# Define a label for our buttontext = "custom2"return {"url": self.url_helper.index_url, # decide where the button links to"label": 'Custom Action 2',"classname": self.finalise_classname(self.view_button_classnames),"title": text,}

def get_buttons_for_obj(self, obj, exclude=None, classnames_add=None, classnames_exclude=None):"""This function is used to gather all available buttons.We append our custom button to the btns list."""btns = super().get_buttons_for_obj(obj, exclude, classnames_add, classnames_exclude)if "custom1" not in (exclude or []):btns.append(self.custom_button1(obj))if "custom2" not in (exclude or []):btns.append(self.custom_button2(obj))return btns

I didn't know how to make this functional, Actually I want to perform certain task after clicking on this button and redirect to same page.

I tried by adding method inside models but it get executes whenever i load this page.

I think I need to override indexview, But I'm not sure weather i need to override index view or not.

So i currently have a headless wagtail setup and I also have some sidebars created via snippets. I want to add google adsense via snippets so my front end can call it. Best method or any advice on configuration inside the snippets?

I followed wagtail instructions about integrating wagtail into an already established django project, having gotten it to work to the point where I can log into wagtail admin, but certain wagtail models(taggit, wagtail documents, wagtail images) are also visible in the standard django admin. I want to unregister them but don't know how as I haven't registered them anywhere in the first place.

Thanks in advance.

Introduction

In 2017, I published the first version of Build Blog With Wagtail CMS, which aims to teaches people how to build projects using Wagtail CMS.

After 3+ years, many content and code in the book seems a little outdated.

I also received some user feedback:

1. How to make Wagtail work with modern frontend tech such as Webpack, SCSS, ES6
2. How to build comment package which support Mention and Emoji and make it work with Wagtail.

After finishing Build SPA with React and Wagtail (Which will teach you how to build a SPA (single-page application) with React and Wagtail CMS), I started working to solve the above problems for people.

1. I rebuild the project with latest Python, Django, Wagtail, and other packages.
2. I rewrote ALL chapters and added new content about the docker, modern frontend tech and comment solution.

Today, Build Blog With Wagtail CMS (second version) is available!

Objective

This book will teach you how to build a modern blog with Wagtail CMS

By the end of this course, you will be able to:

1. Understand Docker and use Docker Compose to do development
2. Create blog models to work with Wagtail.
3. Import Bootstrap themes to the blog.
4. Use PDB and Django shell to debug, test code and check data in terminal.
5. Learn to use RoutablePage and add Date to the post url.
6. Build Pagination component and correctly handle querystring.
7. Make the blog supports wirting in Markdown and Latex.
8. Create contact page using Wagtail FormBuilder
9. Build menu, meta tags, sitemap, robots.txt for better SEO.
10. Build comment system based on django-contrib-comments which support Generic Relations
11. Understand how to use Webpack to bundle frontend assets and make it work with Django project.
12. Learn SCSS and use it to customize style in quick way.
13. Use Tribute.js, Axios to add Mention and Emoji support to the comment form.
14. Learn Async/Await, Promise and the benefits.
15. Deploy the production app to DigitalOcean

What included

1. A PDF ebook which contains about 30 chapters.
2. 20+ screenshots and several diagrams, all created by me.
3. The source code is available on the Github/wagtail-bootstrap-blog

Suppose I use a structure like the following:

class BlogPageRelatedLink(Orderable):
    page = ParentalKey(BlogPage, on_delete=models.CASCADE, related_name='related_links')
    name = models.CharField(max_length=255)
    audioUrl = models.URLField()

    panels = [
        FieldPanel('name'),
        FieldPanel('audioUrl'),
    ]

I'm wondering if it is possible to populate to adjust the above so that, instead of manually entering the URL, I would be able to use a dropdown menu? The idea would be that I would gain the URL from an external API with roughly the following JSON response:

       {
         "id":"83ee98f6-3207-4130-9508-8f4d15ed7d5c",
         "title":"some random description",
         "description":"some random description.",
         "audio":"https://somerandomurl.mp3",
         "slug":"some random description",
         "draft":false
      },
       {
         "id":"83ee98f6-3207-4130-9508-8f4d15ed7d5c2",
         "title":"some random description2",
         "description":"some random description2.",
         "audio":"https://somerandomurl2.mp3",
         "slug":"some random description2",
         "draft":false2
      },
