API documentation

take a look at HierarchicalAPI

Test it

To test this CMS checkout the code with subversion :

svn checkout http://django-page-cms.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ django-page-cms

And then, run the development server :

manage.py syncdb
manage.py runserver

Sqlite3 is the default database. You can log in the admin with the user name admin and password admin.

Install in legacy project

First, copy the pages directory into your project directory.

Add pages to your installed apps :

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'pages',
)

Install urls

Please take a look in the urls.py of the default project and copy desired urls in your proper file.

You must also set the DEFAULT_PAGE_TEMPLATE variable in your settings if you want that the page.views.details function works.

You can also add the PAGE_TEMPLATES variable in your settings if you want template customization:

PAGE_TEMPLATES = (('nice.html','nice one'), ('cool.html','cool one'))

Cool.html and nice.html must exists in your template directory. If you don't set PAGE_TEMPLATES, the app will run fine anyway.

Retrieve localized content in templates

To retrieve localized page content you can use the show_content template tag. This template tag use the request object so you have to put it in the context of your views.

 <h2>{% show_content current_page 'title' %}</h2>
 <p>{% show_content current_page 'body' %}</p>

Compatibility

The pages, and hierachical apps have been developed using the Django revision 7020. Python 2.5 is needed because of the new decorator syntax.
