Help needed with different form for different category

Hi, I am sure this can be done but I'm not experienced enough to know where to start.

Basically what I'm trying to do is on the include_form template. What I want is to display a different form depending on the category someone is adding into.

I have links set so that the user has to be in the specific category before placing an ad but what I want to do is tell links that if the category equals say 'business' to show one version of the include form but if it's any other category to show something else.

The thing is I have a lot of subcategories and I've tried <%if FatherID == X%> followed by the html and then an endif statement, followed by the alternative html but it only ever comes up with the alternative html not the one for that specific category.

Any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated

Many thanks

Sal

Re: [Sal2] Help needed with different form for different category In reply to

Try something like that in add.html:
<%if ID == 2%><%include include_form2.html%>
<%elsif ID == 8%><%include include_form8.html%>
<%elsif ID == 9%><%include include_form9.html%>
<%else%><%include include_form.html%>
<%endif%>

Note, that I didn't try out, but theoritically should work.

Re: [webmaster33] Help needed with different form for different category In reply to

Hi, sorry it took me so long to get back to this and many thanks for replying.

However, I tried doing what you suggested but it still will only do that for the category id number I specify in the IF statement - I have about 6 main categories but within those I have getting on for hundreds of subcategories and want it to recognise any subcategory of say CATEGORY ID NUMBER 5 for instance - so any subcategories under that will then use a different include_form and a different link.html template too.

Any ideas anyone - is it possible to even do this this way or is there a much easier way to do it?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Sal

Re: [Sal2] Help needed with different form for different category In reply to

Well, then use category template feature of LSQL. Just create new category template for those categories where you want different forms, and use <%include form_categoryname.html%> within the template. The template can be the same, except the form filename you include.

The category template is inherited in the subcategories, so this way you can avoid using many if statements.

Hope that helps.

Re: [webmaster33] Help needed with different form for different category In reply to

Hi,

Jack told me to do like this:

<%if ID==1 or ID==2 or ID==6%>

html_code_for_these_categories

<%endif%>

<%if ID==3 or ID==4 or ID==5%>

html_code_for_these_categories

<%endif%>

But the problem is if i have some 300 categories and subcategories and sub sub categories, it will time consuming.

Quote:

Webmaster33, Can you explain it please? If i change the file name, it displays some tags are 'UNKNOWN TAGS'.

thanks.

Re: [hegu] Help needed with different form for different category In reply to

Make a copy of your category.html to category_Computers.html
Edit category_Computers.html, and insert a new form manually, or including a form from a different file using <%include add_form_Computers%>.
Go to Admin/Browser/ select a category (now for example "Computers"), click EDIT, and search Category Template form text field. There you should type the category_Computers.html filename.
Now all subcategories in Computer category will use the same template, thus the same form you used in category_Computers.html

If you do everything correctly, then this should work.

I hope this helps.

Re: [webmaster33] Help needed with different form for different category In reply to

Hi,

What you said is for changing the html lay out for different categories. There is no form display in category.html. Users click on the 'ADD A LINK' to go to the form. So as you said, if i add a different form in each category template , when user clicks on 'ADD A LINK' he will go to original form.

thanks.

Re: [hegu] Help needed with different form for different category In reply to

This global should check whether current category ID is subcategory of the examined category or not. Returns true if current category id, is same, or current category is child of the examined category.

Global name: is_child_category

Code:
sub {  
 my $catid_current = shift; 
 my $catid_check = shift; 
 return 1 if  $catid_check eq $catid_current; 
 my @children = $DB->table('Category')->children($catid_check); 
 foreach (@children) { 
    return 1 if $_ eq $catid_current; 
 } 
}

NOTE: code edited

Usage examples in add*.html template pages:
<%if is_child_category($ID, 123)%><%include add_form_123.html%><%endif%>
<%if is_child_category($ID, 130)%><%include add_form_130.html%><%endif%>
<%if is_child_category($ID, 131)%><%include add_form_131.html%><%endif%>

Input parameters:
1) The ID should the current category ID (hopefully it is, but if not, please correct it)
2) category we analyze if it's same with current category, or it is subcategory of it

Output:
- True if examined category id is same as current category
- True if examined category id is subcategory of current category

I did not test the global, but logically should work.
Let me know, if there will be any problems with it.

BTW: Well, could be possible to avoid the first input parameter, if really needed, but that current way was easier for me. Oh no, I'm not lazy! Just very lazy Wink

Webmaster33

Re: [webmaster33] Help needed with different form for different category In reply to

Some comments for improving your global.

1. You should replace 'eq' by '==', since you are comparing numeric values.

2. Also, you should return 0 or some other false value if your condition is not met.

Thanks for your comments.

Comparing numbers in perl using 'eq' or '==' doesn't matter. Perl will treat numbers as text in case when you use 'eq'. Result is the same.
Quote:

Yeah, I was thinking about it, but I was not sure, if I need returning 0 or not. In my logic, if nothing is returned, it's assumed by template parser as false result. Isn't that true?

These 123, 130, 131 are father IDs(main category IDs under Home). Right? So i have to create one form for each Main category?

Re: [hegu] Help needed with different form for different category In reply to

Not really. Doesn't matter, if category is a main category or not.
Using the 123 as parameter, means it will display the form in category with ID 123, and all subcategories of it (if the global works correctly).
This is what you wanted, isn't it?

Webmaster33

With your global i can use it for a category or a sub category or sub sub category. Great. I will try it and post here.

Re: [hegu] Help needed with different form for different category In reply to

Hi Webmaster33,

Not working. I am getting this error:

--------------------------------------------

A fatal error has occured:

GT::SQL::Table (16908): Wrong argument passed to this subroutine. Usage: Must pass category id to children at /home/usrname/public_html/cgi-bin/resources/admin/Links/Category.pm line 293.

Please enable debugging in setup for more details.

---------------------------------------------

This is what i did:

1. I saved your global as you said..

2. In the include_form.html I put the code like:

<%if is_child_category($ID, 231)%>
<tr><td>......</td></tr>
<%endif%>

Where did i went wrong?

Re: [hegu] Help needed with different form for different category In reply to

This is because on main page, will not pass category ID number to add.cgi.

Try this code:

Code:
sub {   
 my $catid_current = shift; 
 my $catid_check = shift;  
 return 0 if $catid_current =~ /^\d$/;  
 return 0 if $catid_check =~ /^\d$/;  
 return 1 if  $catid_check eq $catid_current;  
 my @children = $DB->table('Category')->children($catid_check);  
 foreach (@children) {  
    return 1 if $_ eq $catid_current;  
 }  
}

EDIT: further checking added, to allow only numbers, as ID.

This will ignore the situation, when you are clicking add.cgi in home.html or no ID is passed.
Also I changed to avoid second input parameter to be 0, since it's the root category.

Hope that helps.

Best regards,
Webmaster33

Hi,

I changed new global and put this html code in include_form.html:

-----------------------

<%if is_child_category($ID, 231)%>
<tr><td valign="top" BGCOLOR="#cacaff" align="right"><%body_font%><b>Section Two:</b></font></td>
<td align="left" BGCOLOR="#cacaff"><b>If you are submitting EBOOK:</b></font><br>
</td></tr>

<tr><td valign="top"><%body_font%>Version: </font></td>
<td>
<input class="button" name="Version" value="<%if Version%><%Version%><%else%><%endif%>" size="20"><br><%form_font%>(Like 1.0, 2.0.1)</font>
</td></tr>
<%endif%>

--------------------------

But the form is like before as usual even when i click the 'ADD A LINK' link under 231 directory.

Hi,

I tried THREE methods. Nothing seems working.

1. Your global and <%if is_child_category($ID, 123)%><%include_form_ebooks.html%><%endif%> in add.html.

2. Your global and <%if is_child_category($ID, 123)%>HTML_code_here<%endif%> in include_form.html.

3. As Jack said:

<%if ID==231 or ID==232 or ID==233 ID==234%>HTML_code_here<%endif%> in include_form.html.

Where i am doing wrong?

Hmm.
Checked Category.pm. It seems children() method returns arrayref, not array.

Try this:

 my $catid_current = shift;   
 my $catid_check = shift;    
 return 0 unless $catid_current =~ /^\d$/;    
 return 0 unless $catid_check =~ /^\d$/;    
 return 1 if  $catid_check eq $catid_current;    
 my $children = $DB->table('Category')->children($catid_check);    
 foreach (@{$children}) {    
    return 1 if $_ eq $catid_current;    
 }

<%if is_child_category($ID, 231)%><%include include_form_ebooks.html%><%endif%>

Re: [afinlr] Help needed with different form for different category In reply to

Yes, you are right Wink

. Multiple numbers should be allowed.
It seems I was more inattentive than usual, so I went to LSQL to test & make working that global.

Here is the tested working is_child_category global:

Code:
sub { 
 my ($catid_current, $catid_check) = @_; 
 return 0 unless $catid_current =~ /^\d+$/; 
 return 0 unless $catid_check =~ /^\d+$/; 
 return 1 if $catid_check eq $catid_current; 
 my $children = $DB->table('Category')->children($catid_check); 
 foreach (@{$children}) { return 1 if $_ eq $catid_current } 
}

You may wish to have implemented the optimization suggested by Paul, so here it is:

Code:
sub { 
 my ($catid_current, $catid_check) = @_; 
 return 0 unless $catid_current =~ /^\d+$/; 
 return 0 unless $catid_check =~ /^\d+$/; 
 return 1 if $catid_check eq $catid_current; 
 my $children = $DB->table('Category')->children($catid_check); 
 return 1 if grep $_ eq $catid_current, @$children; 
}

Then use tags in add.html, or include_form.html this way:
<%set is_child_category_231 = is_child_category($ID, 231)%><%if is_child_category_231%><%include include_form_231.html%><%endif%>
<%set is_child_category_500 = is_child_category($ID, 500)%><%if is_child_category_500%><%include include_form_500.html%><%endif%>

Thanks Laura for pointing out that bug, Yogi for his comments, and Paul for his optimization suggestion.
Lars, finally you can enjoy this global.

Re: [webmaster33] Help needed with different form for different category In reply to

Hi,

I said i tried Jack method and it is working. But the problem is if user left any 'Not Null - Yes' link fields the form is going back to 'add.cgi' not 'add.cgi?ID'

For example Title is set to Not null- Yes. If user enter the form at mydomain/add.cgi?231 and forgot to fill title. He will be pointing to the error and now he will be on add.cgi (default form) So even though i can present different forms for different categories, they are redirected to add.cgi default form, if they didn't enter a required field.

Webmaster33, is your global overcomes this?

Thanks.

Re: [hegu] Help needed with different form for different category In reply to

Note:
The mydomain/add.cgi?231 format is bad.
The mydomain/add.cgi?ID=231 is good.

If you don't want to use my global, then don't use it.
However I thought you want to avoid typing such a lot if conditions... Wink

Quote:

Well, yes, because it seems the ID isn't passed to the error page.
Just use my global, and add the following code to add.html pages, after <%include include_form.html%>:

Code:
<input type=hidden name='ID' value='<%ID%>'>

<input type=hidden name='ID' value='<%ID%>'>
code is needed only once, and should not be placed within the if statement.

Place before
<input type="SUBMIT" name="add" value="Add Link">
code.

Hi,

Now i have another problem. Frown

When user logged and click on 'Modify a link', he selects the link and clicks submit, they are taken to default form NOT the form that i set to that category. Any suggestions?

Thanks.

No. With global i got this problem:

Example- say i have A,B,C,D categories. Global is taking the category and its sub and sub sub categories and presenting one form. If i want one or two sub categories under 'A' different form from the form of that category, i couldn't get it work.

So again i changed back to <if ID == 3... method.

thanks.

Re: [hegu] Help needed with different form for different category In reply to

You didn't mention that until now.

Yes, I understand your problem.
Original supposed solution was: "Using the 123 as parameter, means it will display the form in category with ID 123, and all subcategories of it".

There is a workaround for that problem, but it just a limited solution, since you will not able to use include to get form from a file.
<%set is_child_category_123 = is_child_category($ID, 123)%>
<%set is_child_category_130 = is_child_category($ID, 130)%>
<%set is_child_category_131 = is_child_category($ID, 131)%>
<%if is_child_category_123%><%set result = 'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa'%><%endif%>
<%if is_child_category_130%><%set result = 'bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb'%><%endif%>
<%if is_child_category_131%><%set result = 'cccccccccccccccccc'%><%endif%>
<%result%>

In some cases this will help you out.

However the approach of the problem was bad, so we need a different approach.
Seems you want a more complex solution, to have the form templates inherited down in the hierarchy, while you can override the used form template anytime in deeper categories.
I will try to come out with a solution for you, which will match that new approach above.

Because I don't like to have my email in forums. Email parser engines will find my email and I will get a lot spams. I already get many of them, don't want more...
