00:07 on it what do I owe
00:14 you damn it I hoped you would remember what what am I supposed to be working on for you I I don't know I
00:23 think it was the SQL one was it the SQL admin or
00:30 Stacks xql Stacks right I'm going to put that onto my Tas list right now so then I don't
00:39 forget good call I got my new reminder set up here
00:46 so it's kind of nice um
00:51 SQ light Oh's coming video
01:08 Friday night like meeting thing then they needed help live streaming it because like a lot of
01:15 people can't make it to it so I helped them set it up and I created this whole like thing with
01:23 uh with loot back and audio hijack and like an additional um USB sound card
01:29 hard because like they have a mic system that goes to a Bose speaker and then I've got that coming as an input into the computer and then also they play
01:38 videos on the on the computer so I have to have that audio come back out of the computer back to that same speaker so it's kind of like a loop you have to be
01:47 careful it's because it's like it comes in and out the same speaker um so whatever input the mic is comes out through the like the output
01:56 but also then whatever comes from the computer goes back in the input so you have to like use audio hijack to be able to do
02:03 ducking um which is pretty crazy uh but then I've learned about like essentially what Isaiah remember
02:12 Isaiah did that uh presentation in that uh the one year and he was using his
02:19 camera as his presentation for OBS yeah yeah that's what you're not supposed to do what you're supposed to do is in OBS
02:28 you can actually right click and set one of your displays as the projector MH and then when you go into
02:37 Zoom share that display and then OBS controls what's being viewed on that display and then
02:46 that's what's actually shared so the camera has a high like a resolution limit so when you're sharing it to your camera that's why everything was blurry
02:54 we couldn't see it because it won't give you full resolution but if you're doing share desktop and set OBS to to present
03:02 to that desktop then you're set see you later Scott got yeah during during the summit
03:11 that's sort of what I do so I use wirecast wirecast is has a virtual camera out yeah and um basically
03:19 whatever the output is uh from you know whatever I mix um goes out as a virtual
03:25 camera then on Zoom I set that as the as the c as the webcam basically yeah so that's so that's thing
03:34 OBS has the camera option as well but you don't get as high quality as sharing
03:42 a desktop so was really cool is we did a um so we were using that actually funny
03:51 enough I was using the MacBook Pro that I picked up so I was running a secondary monitor beside the MacBook Pro and then
03:58 I'm connected a projector the MacBook Pro so I have two displays the projector that's in the auditorium that's what we
04:06 present as the OBS primary screen and then um we can control from the two screens we can control
04:13 everything that we need and then we would uh was actually live streaming to sessions so we'd share the projector
04:21 screen on sessions and then everything we did nice was properly controlled like and it worked really well sessions just
04:28 did like a some sort of a big update I got an email I haven't I haven't seen what they what they did did did you check out what that was uh I haven't
04:36 looked at that yet no I just got your email finally oh yeah uh people will eventually show
04:43 up it's all good the people that matter are here now how's it going David yeah not so bad
04:50 thanks I I just started to watch that because your email when you came in a minute ago yep yeah so yep it's all good
04:58 I I was a little slow to the to the trigger this morning so yeah I I I was H like what can I do a
05:06 live stream about and then finally I was like you know what I'm just gonna do a hangout that's handy actually I'm glad I'm glad Josh is here but I just miss
05:15 Scott yeah apparently he had a visitor come in so he had to he had to Jet yeah Sean here the middle of the night sorry
05:23 Sean's here and it's not the middle of the night it's crazy for him it's only three hours difference from here
05:30 very confusing Jo I mean it's it's still 10:40 at night but you know it's not the middle of the night at least
05:41 exactly dedication dedication I love it Sean if that's all I've got me I'm
05:49 happy I end up finding this uh app on the app store called touch
05:56 portal yeah and it supports all the way back to iOS 12 and it essentially turns your iOS device into like a stream
06:04 deck oh okay so then I'm actually able to use my iPad Mini which is like second gen and the app still runs on it and I
06:14 can do a full fully customized panels unlimited I think you can have like unlimited panel screens and up to 140
06:22 icons crammed on one screen if you wanted to cool so I and then ended up purchasing like it has a whole bunch of
06:30 add-ons like you can upgrade in the app but I end up spending like 30 bucks to get all the things I wanted and that
06:38 still like you look at your cheapest um even like the stream deck mini is still like 70 bucks
06:46 yeah yeah I bought the the bigger stream deck well I think they have newer ones now actually the newer ones now have like more kind of like dials and buttons
06:53 and stuff which looks kind of interesting but I got the one that has like 1 two 3 4 five 6 seven eight
07:10 so many non-used buttons is not even funny inside of um OBS I have the move
07:17 um add-on and it's like a transition pack so or it's like a a move Source
07:24 transition so inside of your scene you can create filters and your filter would have different positions of your sources
07:33 so then like your webcam can slide back and forth so then you can add all those as your buttons so I'm going to end up having like different boards for
07:42 different stream use cases but um yeah know I'm helping them set up their system I'm actually meeting them up tomorrow to do a final because like we
07:50 had a bit of an audio I have to solve an audio issue I I accidentally and I think it was just because I had passed through
07:58 enabled on loop back so audio that shouldn't have been getting sent through was getting sent through but it's crazy what you can do
08:07 with Just Apps yep 100% pretty cool just a quick question am I correct
08:15 in saying that um Scott Williams produced The Vi raart
08:23 Stacks he did not that was um bill
08:30 Bill uh yeah face is it ad not Adin no oh is that someone stack it's
08:39 stackit I think it's bill adelstein um he used to join the Hangouts all the time but he hasn't joined for a long
08:46 time no it wasn't Scott um it was Bill um and I believe his last name is Adon he runs stack hits he did the
08:55 um what's his stack set the the um the database thing thing um oh yeah I remember he renamed it yeah
09:05 I forget what he named it but yeah um so it's not important because I was talking to Adrian the other day about something
09:12 and um but I've only got I've been starting to do some donation buttons okay and the only problem is I know
09:21 certain things are set up on the my qsl database like populating what's on the
09:27 button and off other things you can do in the stack but whatever I do I've got
09:37 the box well I've either got a nice white box with the donation bit
09:44 offset with a pound sign in it I've got the pound sign there a white bit and a donation but ah okay and I I put it in a
09:52 a no columns or nothing and it still stays the same um I I've been thinking about
10:07 to my sight lock Stacks probably a paid upgrade um although I don't know I don't know if I should rename them or not because I you
10:15 know people have been asking me for for some stuff for viber cart and I'm like well my stack set's called sight lock should I have Viber cart stuff in it you
10:24 like and still call it sight lock I don't know um but then also uh the another thing I think would be cool is
10:31 to integrate uh site lock data and Viber cart data and that stuff into twig um and so I can make twig
10:40 extensions for Sight lock and Viber cart in total CMS so like you could use it all
10:47 together um so that could be kind of cool um you know being able to let's say visal loock is just a like a twig
10:55 statement you know like if if logged in blah you know that'd be pretty cool um so but with that said I do I do also
11:03 plan on total cms3 will have some sort of authentication system I haven't I haven't built it yet and actually it
11:11 might even that might be one of the things that I put off until after the release since I know a lot of the initial users of total CS are going to
11:19 people that have like page safe and sight lock anyway um I found a button in um in viart where you can click a button
11:28 it uses page safe oh okay cool so I haven't tried that bit yet because I don't know how it
11:34 works nothing in the literature oh okay I didn't even know that's cool a really good stack I think I think
11:43 I think Scott worked with Adrien to get integration for page safe to be able to
11:50 unlock um it unlocks sight lock essentially yeah I didn't even know that
12:07 with page safe oh yeah there's a there's there's a page safe integ you didn't know this I'm sure you knew this about this I remember I remember
12:15 seeing that chat I remember seeing that chat I don't I don't remember it I'm gonna find it right here I'm gonna show you you put the page safe thing Josh for
12:24 let me let me look at the configuration um oh I haven't ticked the box so you tick the box and you get some other boxes open why would you want page safy
12:33 if you already have sight lock though that doesn't make any sense it um hold
12:40 on how's it going Steve long time no see buddy yeah been dealing with some health
12:48 issues oh really okay well sorry to hear that glad you're feeling better though I know uses viart might be a to help me
12:57 with me little batom problem is that in Viber cart David or is that in page safe I mean actually I've
13:06 haven't been into I've hav't been into sight lock for ages I've been playing with um the Vibra cart s must be VI then
13:14 yeah let me check here I log in so I found it several times which when you're in the I'm just trying to figure out
13:21 where it is now um tools I think conf configuration
13:31 [Music]
13:32 yeah so okay so so what it is Joe is config it's in so it's in Viber cart okay and there's a setting that allows
13:41 page safe access to the dashboard so it it bypasses Viber cart's login
13:49 process oh okay so you you set what your page safe ID is so if you log in as that
13:56 page safe user you get access to cart admin oh okay so if someone buys Viber cart and doesn't have sight lock you can
14:04 get into your Viber cart admin without you don't have to have two logins you can use page safe as a login method for viber card that's what I was going to
14:13 ask because in the Viber cart you can only set up One login apparently that's what I managed to do yeah so this will just override it
14:21 and allow you to use a page safe ID put multiple ones in brilliant because I wanted to do do that excellent excellent
14:30 yeah very cool I mean I practically have every site I use site lock on now just because of all the email template stuff
14:37 which is just so useful so I mean that's that's one thing that's really really nice about sight
14:45 lock is that he built so much stuff around users and email templating and
14:53 um does a lot it does a lot actually well quite like because I got to use that messaging system that
15:01 daviday was showing a couple of weeks ago as well oh is that I know is that blab or is it something different it's a
15:09 site lock adding yeah it's I think it's called blab or at least it used to be called blab yeah I do have a a stack for
15:17 it um I think a blab stack yeah just so like users can talk to each other and that
15:26 yeah yeah yeah I think it's called blab um be right yeah although I part of me feels that it got renamed recently
15:35 within the last couple of years maybe because blab was a weird word I don't know at least everything's starting to
15:42 work together yeah I love it when things work together you know it's great um you know that's why I you know I really
15:50 strive to you know make my a lot of my my products like they're a they're very specialty but they're they're open so
15:57 that they work with with you know um so yeah um I I think I think making your products open and
16:06 integratable with other other things is powerful you know like for example like uh Bento and feeds or feeds with
16:14 anything right block grids or all that stuff I mean it's just the way you and I didn't do anything special in those other products well I guess I I built
16:22 those products so that they're open so that they can be extended with tools like feeds or you know in the future total C 3 or actually right now with
16:30 total CS 3 um if you're using the beta um so yeah exciting oh Fades works well
16:37 with site lock and my qsl anyway so yep exactly yeah
16:44 yep good good good I just show you what this button looks like because you might say I'll
16:52 just do this but I don't I don't think it's that easy to fix somehow yeah yeah of course you can show off let's uh let's help you out
17:08 access to the dashboard that's cool I totally forgot that that was a thing so we go over to this
17:16 one and scroll down a bit I've asked him for some M multilingual Contents I
17:23 should have some next week excellent so this is what I'm getting at the moment it's either that
17:33 or that's the normal version and and that's what I've been playing around with
17:39 doing H wait show the the normal version again oh uh so what is that what stack
17:47 is that well that's a viart pro button okay and and what is the text
17:55 input well that's the um the CMS there is that coming from here is
18:03 just the best well we go back to number one what you should have is like that's the pound
18:09 sign up there this is the donation amount you can actually set up Viber cart so you can actually make it a bit
18:17 more or less yes yeah yeah um but yeah it would be nice if that could be
18:25 sty yeah and I exp it to be displayed screen it still does the same why okay wait why
18:33 is there different buttons sorry what was the the purpose here of the different buttons well no this is the standard version number one is what I'm
18:41 playing around with using um like some of this this is all out of
18:51 David's um Mercury project um to try and make it look good
18:59 some swatches set up for styling the fonts the buy a
19:07 button so where is the actual input is it the button stack like or the the donation button stack yeah this is the
19:15 whole thing that's controlled in that this here okay but but that is hold on wait wa wait so that is just a button or
19:24 is that is that also adding that number input in there for you right well this bit is from the vibart donation one no
19:34 but that's the slide on the side that's not the back button at the bot right so this is the button uhuh so which is
19:42 talking to viart yes and then basically when you hit that
19:48 you get this bit here yes and I put that class in there to make it do that thing
19:55 with with this one yeah but but that input where it says five the little number input is that
20:03 getting added by the stack or are you adding that no that's coming from viart oh okay I think you're using Styles pushing that are pushing that this text
20:12 here comes from Viber car yeah it all comes
20:19 from see over here I would just have a donate button and when it pops up you can then change
20:27 the value in the cart in the popup Cod yeah well that's what I wanted to do in the first place so they can put whatever donation they want please what
20:35 happens when you hit please donate what happens when you press that button all right so it pops up so in there you
20:43 can okay you have it set to I'm taking out the um the code you know the discount code bit because we don't want
20:51 that yeah at the moment it doesn't do anything because there's no stripe set up I was just trying to
20:59 can you click can you click on the five pounds there does that change oh go back the one major downside to cart Loom
21:08 or Viber cart is its Styles yeah um I you know I I I I do see it is very
21:17 awesome that is a you know one-time purchase e-commerce system but um I I think it could really also got it set up
21:24 for only one donation so thing is you have full access to the CSS and if you do swatches you can go crazy yeah I just
21:34 think the default Styles out of the box I I understand it's it is just full CSS and you can style the crap out of it because like like for me because like
21:42 the way I like for me I look at it this way and people in the waiting room um like if if I look at it this way if I
21:51 go on my cart like it I like that it's simple I don't find the stylings bad at
21:58 all you know if I go into add something if I go and add something to the cart
22:06 like I I I just styled the CSS and it does looks nothing like the stock and I
22:12 agree the stock is horrible um I would call it horrible I I I'm trying to be nice here I mean oh no I just like it
22:21 could it could be made better it's dated yes there we go yes yeah I conf founded
22:27 a lot of the the PSS bits for targeting things Josh I agree with you there like the header the whatever the picture
22:35 you've got there well there's actually the stock CSS file for viber cart there is a CSS file so if you just go into this into Viber cart folder there is a
22:45 style like a CSS with all your settings in there so you can actually either a change the code directly or you swatches
22:52 The Target just to override what's in that sheet yeah I was looking at the Snippets because a lot of it's in the Snippets to as well isn't it oh would
23:07 modify it whereabouts is that in the Viber cart
23:14 folder oh actually actually in the folder that you put on your server back the yeah sorry yeah yeah
23:23 just right in the root of that folder there is the um let me just figure out what it is yeah I haven't looked too much in
23:32 there because I was trying to learn a lot more about what I could do on the the Viber cart bit and what I had to do over here
23:43 so is good I just had a thought you know earlier I said you know I might do a
23:51 updated site lock stack that you know does Viber cart and sight lock I could just rename it to vibr Stacks or something like that that way when
23:59 someone's like go get the sight lock stacks and they're like I have sight lock but you know then it might you know resolve the confusion of people
24:08 purchasing my sight lock Stacks thinking that it comes with sight lock because it thinks sight lock is my stacks right I mean so if I have a completely different
24:16 product name which is something I wish I did when I originally did it right yeah because even though like I've tried very
24:24 hard like there's like 10 disclaimers on the page have to buy a sight lock You Gotta Buy sight lock this does not include sight
24:33 lock I get some very angry emails when someone realizes they have to spend an extra $40 to get sight lock and I'm
24:42 like why don't you get price after that I all right I'm like did you watch the video or read the first paragraph or the
24:51 second or third did you read any of the any of the product tapate like
25:02 yeah I know Josh is about the only one who's done some nice styling on it on the cart
25:11 thing yeah maybe if I ever go down that route maybe I could do my version of how a shopping cart be
25:19 style yeah so so one thing I think I'm talking about Josh yeah sorry I think that's really nice I love cart
25:28 Loom style I think that's it's beautiful I think you know I think that is a very nicely styled card it's so for me I
25:36 think it's it's the integration with sight loock which is integrated so so many things oh no the power is 100% there I
25:46 get it you know for me for me it's more or less because I I want a member area of my site to log into and integrating
25:53 that sight lock for that with with C Loom would just make no sense yeah definitely I agree uh you know uh you
26:01 have to jump through holes if if it's not a totally integrated system now you know 100% I get it if it if I did not
26:08 have the members area of my site I'd probably cart Loom 100% and the other nice thing is Adrian is very
26:17 accessible yeah Adrian is a great guy uh he has awesome support
26:25 right day and five minutes later boom well it helps you guys are in the same time zone yeah the rest of us we're
26:34 like Joe messages him and it's already his evening you won't get it till the next day yeah no no I I'm even running a custom
26:43 version of Viber cart on one of my other sites because we did a custom modification that I needed um which I think he'll eventually
26:51 update it as a feature well I know Chris Powers he didn't and use the stacks he got Adrian
27:09 I have no I have no General issue with the Viber cart Stacks there is
27:15 some problems though that you have to get around so for instance they have a
27:23 configuration because of the way it is with the stacks when you drag the the configuration to set up the Viber card
27:30 on your homepage and you enter your configuration set settings and you publish it puts the Viber cart folder
27:37 inside of the index files of the homepage and then when you first
27:43 visit that page on your website it will copy the Viber cart folder out of that there's like PHP that runs and moves it
27:52 back to where it's supposed to be that's their way of getting around the stacks publishing limitation and and then you're supposed
27:58 to go back to your homepage on your project file and delete the setup stack and then you
28:06 republish and you're good to go well there is a glitch with the stacks that even though you
28:14 remove the setup stack when you republish again it puts the Viber cart folder again in the index files so now
28:22 you have two of them you'll end up with one in the index files and one on the homepage and no matter how many times you republish all it keeps bringing that
28:31 secondary Viber cart folder back you essentially have to delete the um the setup stack save the project quit the
28:40 project relaunch the project republish and that damn folder won't come back and this only like escalates when you're
28:49 doing something like I'm doing with get publishing it like messes everything up because I have Viber cart folder igned
28:58 but Viber cart in the index files is not ignored because it's in a different spot and so it it shows up and if you want it
29:06 to be published then moved it's just a Gong Show so the way I've been able to figure it out and make it work properly for me is I just spin
29:15 up map I publish locally preview the page it moves the Viber cart folder to
29:22 the spot it's supposed to be in and then um I manually move it because I have
29:28 that git ignores the Viber cart folder um and then once I I have it in the place it needs to be I delete the stack
29:36 re close the project republish all verify that that folder doesn't come back and then I disable M and synchronize um just the Viber cart
29:45 folder over transmit so it is a mess um but the stacks are nice because it's
29:52 easy to just drag the stack onto the page um to program it I mean like I have
30:08 automatically pull the right product um when you're viewing that product in total CMS
30:14 so the stacks are useful the setup is painful and extra painful if you're doing G
30:28 well anyway back to the other bit where's that file to look at for this
30:36 thing share your screen and FTP to your server or show the viber viber cart uh folder on your
30:44 Mac or something like that the one that you server what are you looking for he's looking for the CSS file oh it's
30:55 um I'm just opening it up it's called V it's just vcop up.
31:08 CSS they that's the popup they say
31:15 popup CSS I think I have mine kind of I've modified it in that CSS there's
31:23 a lot in there um in that CSS file and then I'm using some swatches that
31:30 I've targeted to get like the border around the like uh around the cart when it pops
31:37 up I was just about to say do you want to share some of them swatches by any chance I have to find
31:50 them Stacks wees that are found the building Stacks Weaver was
31:58 such a long process and two different project
32:08 files loads of stuff in here oh yeah stack other Stacks
32:16 questions we can help out there's a JavaScript
32:20 [Music]
32:22 one pop up sh share your screen David yeah hold
32:31 go over there oh Bruno's on the YouTube chat he says he doesn't have VC pop up.
32:39 CSS got really yeah oh so where's the this one is soorry found there it is
32:47 yeah there's also I don't what's VC embedded if I is that is there like an embedded version of the cart or something yeah so there's your pop-up
32:55 cart there's embedded in the page cart H um yeah here let me uh what What's the
33:03 best thing to open these in uh probably like uh code Runner or uh visual studio
33:12 if you have via yeah Visual Studio code there you go vs Cod or why do you have two instances of vs code installed in your
33:20 machine one yeah you got to delete the other one yeah I shouldn't have to yeah let me
33:28 let me show so on yeah think you want to play with some
33:36 of them [ __ ] but now you say you can it's good does he have a
33:42 demo oh he's got a demo to site yeah he uh yeah so embedded cart so this is
33:51 the popup so when you add to cart that's the popup yep and then you have embedded
33:59 which would be like a cart spot that's on the page so you can go add to cart add to cart add to cart and it's
34:07 embedded into the page you know that could be nice as an off canvas you know like having your shopping cart on the oh
34:13 yeah that would be really nice actually then there's mini cart mode which I believe is like that and you go add to
34:21 cart oh look at that even has the little thing that flops up to the cart how cool that's good yeah which is really cool
34:29 need to update the shopping cart icon though and then he has a wimpy player which I've never used but allows you to
34:36 yeah it actually is like gives you media like you can have like song previews and then and then if you I
34:44 don't know if this is going to play I'm just G mute that so then you could actually like listen to the song and then you can actually add it to cart
34:53 from the player oh nice which is like really slick cool those are the different cart
35:01 options and then there is there is a hover a cart hover I don't know he doesn't have it on here it's like this
35:09 little button that shows up on the side um I think he has it disabled okay but there Adrian was talking about because
35:19 mainly it's just a donation button and I know um on Mercury he's got it so you got like products but I wanted to do
35:27 button where it would have different amounts you could just select the amount yeah so like let me show you um let me
35:35 show you the site here that uses inside of the Viber cart item the product there is the ability to yeah you
35:44 can add that facility where you can add options yeah um I saw that today yeah so
35:53 let me show you so here's an example of a membership
36:07 choice of choosing your your membership so one year six months or three months so you can choose your membership level
36:16 add to cart if it shows up in cart you broke it oh it's no it's
36:24 because I'm logged in as the admin admin I have access to things I'm not supposed to
36:43 see there you go that should work yeah there you go and yeah have limits on the cart so
36:50 you can't add more than one done that's only one item obviously yeah yeah there was a this cart's running version
36:58 because there was actually a glitch in his logic and he fixed it on this one um because it's meant to have only allow
37:07 one product like one item but it wouldn't let you add multiple items and so we
37:15 fixed it because I think on one of the events we need to be a you have to have the ability to buy five tickets but it
37:22 would only let you buy one ticket even though it was set to have five limit there was a logic glitch um
37:30 but he fixed that yeah I think that's the way I'm going to go is just add one button and then the selection of all
37:37 the different donations that they want to have yeah and that's that's using the
37:45 button stack like fully customiz like nothing special I did I just added an option
37:54 selectable option yeah I still site Viber cart bit that's on a Viber cart product page yeah yeah I did see that
38:02 yeah I just got to get the button working nicely so it looks pretty before I get that bit working because I don't really need a
38:11 store because it's not really a store is it it's just donation buttons yeah same thing with like this
38:18 it's they they purchase their membership on an account page or and then they can buy tickets on um an event page
38:40 and this this this project has really good um it's really cool a lot of people
38:47 don't realize this so inside of sight lock they have these email templates um let me just get to that
38:55 page before I share here we go one of Joe's email templates into
39:02 it uh yeah it's uh a lot of people don't realize you can do that so they have
39:09 these email templates that are built in so if I go to this
39:16 template this is actually using email stacks and I put them into the the email
39:23 templates so when new users sign on they have to get approv so the the sight lock will send an email to them saying hey like you signed up these are the next
39:32 steps so the system automatically does all the emails and I just made all of their emails with site uh with the email stacks and it works like really nicely
39:41 so if you preview this for you know admin they can show you what that email looks like with all the data in there
39:48 sexy that's beautiful beautiful system because I think that's the new user and
39:56 I think we load the new or pending user uh
40:04 pending no not pending approve that one so this is the one that comes like when you first sign up on the
40:12 website um this is the email you get and this email has um animated givs so
40:20 they're actually in the email it shows you how to sign up and it's in the email
40:27 which is really cool very nice very slick looking uh
40:34 emails let's
40:38 [Music]
40:49 see so I have a I have a question I have a something I wanna I want to build um I
40:56 don't have anything to show but uh using a total CMS I I want to create a a
41:02 button using JavaScript that will put items inject data into the CMS fields
41:10 for the user will will that work so you want to have a button that
41:18 will in formatted data into um a CMS
41:24 Fields yeah should be possible wouldn't yeah just wanted to make sure I thought so I'm just I haven't I haven't
41:32 built it yet so um if no one has any other questions I I can we can hack it together if you
41:41 want no that's all right that's all right H okay no I'm not I I I what I want to build is a like
41:51 a a list of Articles so you know you go get the go get the URL for the for an article you put it into a field
41:59 you press the button it'll go get the uh all the um information about it you know the publish and weather so I'll go off
42:08 to a service get that put it into the thing okay and then and then save that so
42:15 um I got most of it most of the idea are down but I'm gonna play with it all right yeah I mean every every total CS
42:23 field I mean it's just a normal form field so you just get to a get element by name yeah and then and then you know you put in the name of whatever the
42:31 total CMS form field is and then you can just do a value equals and then whatever you want to inject and you know now the
42:40 person will still have to click save to save that data but that would eject it yeah yep yep that's all
42:48 good I do have a question about um listing phone numbers on a website
42:55 um I was I was I have a nonprofit that I do a website on dreamhost and we were
43:04 considering about putting a telephone number I was considering a screen behind another screen that if they want the telephone number they would have to go
43:13 through the screen to get that I don't know if that's even possible with anything we have what do you mean by
43:19 going through another screen to get that well sometimes I can drop down or something like that I've seen different scenarios
43:27 of information that's laid out and I'm not really certain if it's even possible
43:34 um I would to even put the telephone number on there just put a blanket on
43:41 there um so I mean yeah I mean there is a you can put a telephone and you can make it so if it's if a user clicks it
43:48 it'll actually call them as well um so you know it that makes it very convenient
43:55 um and but I'm still unsure on what you mean by so you want to hide the phone number initially and you only want to
44:02 display it if they click through onto something yes okay um so like I like if
44:10 you don't want to physically display the phone number you just want to have like call me now and then you click on the button and then that would call the
44:17 person is that correct that would work I would think okay so um if you're using Foundation 6 there there's a telephone
44:25 button and um I think there is isn't there yes there's a telephone button yes
44:34 um and so uh you you don't need to display the phone number in the button okay so you could put you can make the
44:41 button oops here let me share my screen so we can see okay so um here's a telephone button
44:50 and um the button can say whatever you want you you could say you know call me now okay and then you put the telephone
44:58 number in here and whenever someone clicks on this it'll call them okay I I think that were I got
45:05 Foundation six but that's okay I look yep it says yeah I knew you had Foundation six so that's why I recommended
45:13 that um it says sandbox in the bottom top is that just the project file you put out
45:20 there uh I mean to it's just you just uh this is just my test project that I use various things you just add the
45:28 telephone button to the to the page that's it um there's really nothing else to it just add the telephone button to the page um and then you can change the
45:37 the button label so here I just said call me right and then you change the phone number to be whatever you
45:45 like okay okay um how does that work on desktop uh so if you're on a Mac um
45:54 it'll open up FaceTime in call um and also I think I think FaceTime on
46:03 Mac now asks you if you want to call via your phone as well I think um if you're if you have an
46:17 iPhone okay not sure what happens on Windows did anybody know have a Windows machine that they use and they've clicked a call me button I don't I don't
46:25 know what Windows does I'll be honest me I mean this doesn't use
46:33 anything uh tricky it's I mean uh linking to a telephone number is standard HTML um so I would assume that since
46:44 it's been standard for probably 10 years now or more that a Windows machine does do something with that information what
46:52 I'm I don't know I think it displays biia Mac
46:57 [Laughter]
46:59 it says go buy a Mac
47:03 yeah D neat one but okay
47:10 nice um okay I think if I if you go to found if you go to the foundation Stacks demo I
47:18 probably have a demo of it although although I don't have a valid telephone number I'm not putting my telephone number on this for obvious reasons
47:27 well I get speaking about that do you have any idea why Joe the share sheet doesn't work in
47:35 Chrome uh probably because it doesn't support it only it only works on on supported
47:42 browsers so um yeah chrome doesn't support the share
47:51 sheet so yeah funny enough I'm in Arc and I actually just clicked on that when you said that and yeah it doesn't doesn't the worst part is is
48:07 that doesn't show at all it doesn't show at all because it's not supported yep yeah but the button on the right side shows and when you click it
48:16 it just reloads the page it reloads the page yeah uh and I think that's just probably because I think I Ed a link
48:22 button and I link to the current page uh so yeah it does the same thing on my other site where I used a QR code with the
48:31 share sheet functionality and then it does the same thing and you click it it just reloads so I'm thinking I'm gonna have
48:41 to do stuff now that I've discovered that I'm thinking that I'm gonna need to detect if it's a Chromium browser with agent and swap out the link for
48:49 something else oh okay yeah sorry yeah um good know I didn't
48:58 know that it didn't I've never even tested it in Chrome if he I'll show you what he's
49:06 talking about here I'll open up Safari and I'll go to Foundation stacks.com
49:13 demo go to buttons and we go to share sheets okay you'll see that there's two demos here and if I click on this bad boy here it
49:22 opens up the share sheet and if I click on this button it opens up a share sheet right but let's go to that demo and I'm
49:29 in Arc which uses Chrome okay the Chrome uh web kit a the share button over here
49:36 just doesn't display at all and the reason for that is um I foret exactly how I built this demo but it it knows that the share sheet isn't supported so
49:45 it doesn't show it okay um but this is just a normal link button with the the share sheet option ticked and um the
49:55 button still shows because the button still valid but it just reloads the page um so
50:03 yeah yep there unfortunately there's not much I could do um yeah because chrome doesn't support the share sheet I don't
50:10 know if that's even a possibility I don't know I know that Arc if you go up here it it has a share sheet here but
50:18 I'm assuming this is like a part of the O and I don't know why they can't integrate it into the web page I don't
50:25 know um kind of sucks you think something like that
50:32 would be possible I don't know I mean that's just a web API so I'm assuming that they could La they could
50:41 integrate that into the OS share sheet because Safari does it um and I know there's docs on how to do that but I can't do that it's something Chrome has
50:49 to do so anyway um but what was I was oh we were going to do telephone numbers I want to
50:57 see if there I don't think I have a telephone number example in here actually I don't so
51:04 sorry so couldn't you just make up a telephone number and see how redirects out or what oh oh you want me to show
51:12 you how it does it here I mean I I I I get that I just thought maybe you had something else that you had in mind oh no I mean yeah you
51:21 just I have no idea what that phone number is but right if I right if I and if I click on call me
51:29 it's going to do you want to open up FaceTime right and it'll it'll call that number with FaceTime and if you if you did this on the phone it would launch
51:36 the telephone app and and call you straight from the you know but you can't see the phone number here right um another thing you
51:45 can do is not many people use button groups okay but you can use a button group as well um and in here you can add
51:53 all the various types of buttons so like you could add telephone button to hear as well and this one would be a call me
52:01 now right and want a hot massage yeah same thing
52:10 right so WhatsApp as well yep you you could do WhatsApp WhatsApp supports some sort of linking
52:18 system yeah um just put the URL I would use then a link button and then use whatever whatsapp's URL scheme is
52:31 all right all these uh something I I did today um or
52:39 no I did yesterday sorry yesterday is uh I I created this there there's a system called Sentry and it basically allows me
52:46 to collect errors and logs um from my application so I in total CS 3 I uh I
52:55 integrated uh with this so that if there's any application crashes or issues it'll it's kind of like a crash reporter like if you have an app and it
53:03 crashes and it says do you want to send the crash report right it's sort of similar to that where if total CMS runs to any issues it'll it'll log the the
53:11 error up here that way I can have a centralized thing um and I can fix bugs uh without even maybe you knowing that
53:20 there was a bug right so kind of cool um so I was pretty happy that'll be in the next beta
53:27 um another thing I did yesterday was I created collection forms um and so what this is is let's
53:37 say you wanted to create a a Blog that was not named blog okay which is a something you can't do right
53:45 now easily in total cms3 um so you can just do like um I want to call this um
53:52 new blog okay and we want to say that this new blog is a Blog so we Define it a Blog schema and then you give it a URL
54:08 DOT toal cms. test um slash
54:15 poost okay um and then you can type in your description whatever and yeah so that will then
54:24 create a new blog that you can then have as many blogs as you want right um so it allows you to create um new
54:32 collections um based on existing schemas or custom schemas uh I haven't built the abil I haven't made the forms for
54:39 creating custom schemas yet um but yeah this is all done it's working it's pretty cool um if you're curious what the URL
54:47 here is so you know in total CS one we have like the blog post URL that you have to like preview the blog post page
54:55 and then save that like box that no one or half the people never do when they're new because they don't they never preview the page or something um that's
55:03 what this is basically it allows you to um when you create the collection initially you have to uh give it a or you don't have to but um you can give it
55:12 you can save a URL along with it so that this URL is used for like when you generate site Maps or RSS feeds or um
55:20 even when you're you know linking in a in a blog list um this URL will be used
55:27 if it's defined so there we go I have a question
55:37 um is it a possibility that um one of the stacks that you have or even someone else that had um could there be a
55:45 possibility to have a 3D image like of a map say for instance someone um presses um some conditions
55:53 like I mentioned a long time ago about the puzzle map and the call to action but this would be okay if they ask three
56:03 different questions the call to action would pop up a particular type of um map
56:13 it would be a static map it wouldn't be something on GPS that you could find but it would
56:19 go to 3D image instead of a flat image of your loc of a location um
56:26 is that something that can be done I don't know I don't have a a demonstration of thing
56:37 um can you let's see in my Google Map stack can you do I know Google supports 3D images but I don't think you can you
56:44 can force it that view by default I don't think let's have a look I mean I have that
56:54 too uh
57:04 see well you have street view um but I don't think that's what you want right you want like the 3D overhead yeah yeah
57:12 3D image is something say for instance I mean the places that I'm doesn't have a lot of internet or GPS and so one way to
57:21 do is ask questions interact with the customer this is where you are this is what you want to see in a general
57:29 standpoint and not just very specific like the GPS would do but it would give you an idea where you are um and then
57:36 you can narrow it down to where you are from the map that you're given I said ask this question ask this question then you narrow it down to oh this is where
57:45 you are instead of anywhere else because if if that stuff is shaky like in the middle of a parking structure if it's
57:52 shaky this will give you where you are from the questions you ask ask in interaction with the
58:08 structures that's different because I mean at that point you have like you know what level are you on you know stuff like that I mean yeah that would
58:16 be a question to ask what Lev if it's a different color for every level and if you if you say okay what do you see it
58:25 has so question what do you see okay that narrows it down to where you are and so if what's the use case I mean
58:32 that could take I mean asking people and having them type in answers to a question that that could take time you know well here's the thing here's the
58:40 thing here's the thing the interaction to keep people engaged that's the only way you would have to keep them engaged I would I would even say okay where are
58:49 you if they're really interested in where they are they would look it up if not they going but you know
58:56 you know if you find say for instance if you find your car well it could be in this section but if you narrow it down you can say okay you're here
59:06 instead of this entire Place well what do you see you see blue do you see this
59:13 do you see a staircase you see an elevator and it narrows it down every time they answer a question instead of a
59:20 a general statement oh so you need to be able to like not only you can't really just use G PS of where they're at you
59:27 need to like analyze the the actual contents of a map to help them pinpoint where they are yeah I don't know how to
59:36 do that dude that's I I don't know if I don't know if that's possible there's definitely not a stack for that I don't know if there's a a service for that I
59:44 don't know I I found something similar I was talking to somebody and they said you can do something that with I think
59:51 it was Archer side Archer I mean the problem with that is you know I mean
59:59 maps are only as good as the last time they were the pictures or satellite images
01:00:06 were taken you know um and Roads change buildings are painted
01:00:14 um you know stuff like that so that is uh yeah I mean something like that I I
01:00:21 can't even see it being possible um based on querying a map for that dat because the maps it they'll never be
01:00:28 always up to date well I mean inside of instruction not outside outside is a different story all together but inside
01:00:35 where that stuff is limited um you want to ask questions and narrow down where you are because
01:00:43 outside that's a different story because I see those Google and board and collecting data outside but they're not going to do that inside yeah exactly
01:00:53 yeah and so you replace the side to put something inside to take its place if they're
01:01:06 as in as a shopping mall oh yeah yeah um I've seen Google have offline
01:01:13 maps but I have not seen that sort of uh application anywhere have to walk around you might
01:01:22 have to walk around with your phone get the GPS location of every place you want and then manually do it well yeah the
01:01:30 whole idea about the asking questions is that they take the place of a GPS because the GPS might show up but it
01:01:36 might not inside of a allall yeah I know there are some technologies for that but I just can't think of like
01:01:44 they were working on indoor navigation using um Bluetooth and Wi-Fi and and some other some other
01:01:52 Technologies like I remember there was a time when you could go into Google and go inside of a building or you know a mall or something like that and it
01:02:09 advertising but I don't know if it if it's you can reverse that and that would take um cost of
01:02:17 devices in into account to do that um again those companies that want to
01:02:26 participate would pay for that device yeah so if you're doing this for a very
01:02:33 specific location a very specific location you could um devise questions
01:02:40 that um that had static answers that you could determine someone's location like okay um you know
01:02:49 are are you uh if you look right do you see this or this right and then based on that you kind of know okay okay these are the four or five locations and the
01:02:57 next question okay now do you see this or this right so you could you could I don't think getting to the level of someone typing in an actual answer I
01:03:06 think would be difficult but maybe if you were to have static answers and based on those static answers you led so sort of like a Choose Your Own Adventure
01:03:15 book right where um you know you read a page and you're like do you want this to happen or this happen go to this page or this page right um so yeah then you
01:03:24 could potentially build something like that with um what's Scott's um um brancher F6 brancher right where based
01:03:34 on the answers of form Fields you could take them down one branch or another
01:03:42 right so um you could build a static logic um as long as you knew the possible
01:03:50 answers right yeah but again that entire Branch or that entire tree would be I'm very specific to that particular
01:04:08 because he explained how to use brancher quite well actually I think it was Chris I think Chris Chris did done one with we done what you done with one with Josh
01:04:17 and he went into a bit of brancher oh yeah that's right I think that was on a live stream yeah that was a live stream
01:04:24 and Josh Josh did it over review of brancher that's right yeah that was really helpful that was
01:04:30 yeah yeah that Chris did a Chris did a he actually built a build your own adventure style web page using brancher
01:04:39 which was kind of fun did he Chris Powers Yeah he did I'm not sure I I know he I think he published
01:04:46 it I'd like to see that one I'd have to message him yeah yeah he he yeah he did like it was like a whole story and based
01:04:53 on your answers it did different things um I think he did it during the beta to help Scott test it out um it was pretty
01:05:01 cool what was that called F6 brancher it's from um stacka stacks.com yeah all
01:05:09 right I have that um but the thing that Chris had done I talked to him a couple of times uh it wasn't a product he he
01:05:17 just he created a project file um I don't know if he published it uh I don't know if he has it anymore but if you if you ping him maybe he'll May he'll still
01:05:26 have it and uh
01:05:28 [Laughter]
01:05:30 minut are you sure it wasn't called zorc yes it was yeah it was zorc that's right yes Bill remembers thank you I'm
01:05:40 not going crazy yeah it was a zor game that's what it was yeah it was like it was like the
01:05:46 game zorc and yeah okay yep oh great Joe I have a suggestion for
01:05:54 you and it's actually polite if if you like sure I want cms3 one excuse me I've been playing with the
01:06:02 total cms3 Demo that you last and something that would be helpful to me and I'm sure to the rest of the
01:06:10 world that's at my level at some point would be um a slightly more simple example on the custom things like you've
01:06:19 put things in loops and that adds yeah I mean yeah I I admit that that c I need to revisit that because I've since I've
01:06:27 made that I've um made more simple Stacks so yes that demo
01:06:35 um in my defense I I I warned that custom stuff wasn't ready yet so um yeah yeah no I'm I'm just saying what
01:06:45 does work is harder for me to debug and and say okay what can I do to sort of match this when I can't get a hold of
01:06:54 the of the basic yep I will um so I I've rev I've actually split beta 3
01:07:01 into two now um so I was going to do full custom collections in beta 3 um I've split it you're going to get half
01:07:09 of it now what I just showed uh right now where you can create your own like a new blog instance creating a new
01:07:16 collection that will be beta 3 um beta 4 will then uh split out and have the the actual custom collection the schema
01:07:24 generation um the reason I'm splitting that up is the the scheme of thing is going to take a little longer and I want to get this at Le this part out to you guys
01:07:33 hopefully this week actually um there something to play with while you're working on the next bit exactly so that way that way I have this part done I'm
01:07:40 gonna ship it out I'll also make sure my to-do today is to create um and fix Galleries and blogs because I know
01:07:48 that's broken so I will fix that and I have one more goodie that I want to try to do that I'm not even going to splurge right now maybe on Friday if you join us
01:07:56 Friday I'll show it off um something that I uh I'm going to surprise you guys with I think you're going to really love it show the power of of what total CS
01:08:04 can do for us um so yeah uh the custom scheme is going to come in the future in beta 4 um and
01:08:14 mostly that has to do because um I I realize that something I delayed until beta 5 I have to bring it into uh this
01:08:22 to finish the custom schema so it's going to be a lot more work than um I was anticipating so um so yeah the
01:08:29 the beta 3 is going to be split so then this next one again custom collection well collection creation not custom
01:08:37 collection creation but uh collection creation um and a few other bugs fixes and then we'll get
01:08:44 custom schemas but with that said I can look at the demo file and try to make um
01:08:51 or modernize that custom collection pages in the demo file to make it at least um you know using the latest
01:08:59 stacks and what I would see be usable for when we do have custom collection creation okay y now what what what I'm
01:09:08 hoping you're hearing from me is simple is better so when when you put a demo thing
01:09:15 and then you throw a a loop around it yeah that just adds a another level of
01:09:22 um data hiding that yes just makes it a little bit harder to get really moving
01:09:30 along on the very basic I mean we want to go there yep but now have you have you played with um the new blog
01:09:37 looping uh or feed looping Stacks have you have you played around with those uh not as much as as just trying to make my own
01:09:46 little form that's made up of the individual objects and which ones are working for me and which ones I'm having trouble with yeah you're you're trying
01:09:54 to get that custom collection form done right well yeah a little bit but I'm not trying to add anything that isn't in the
01:10:01 Box I'm not trying to do I'm not trying to do two blogs for instance now did did you did you create um well but you're trying to do a custom collection right
01:10:10 with your own form with your own field names correct
01:10:16 um yes yes because you I I know you're trying to create something that has two images correct image one and image two I did that that that that's sort of past
01:10:25 you know I'm okay with that what I'm trying to do remember we Friday we found a whole bunch of stuff that wasn't in my pallet yes yeah so I'm just trying to
01:10:35 play with some of those okay and some of the very Basics are just sort of hidden uh in terms of like where does
01:10:43 post go where does ID go where does just the syntax is is hidden from me a little bit because you throw that object Loop
01:10:50 in or that form Loop in okay yep and I'm just thinking if you go way back to here's how you're going to throw a text
01:10:58 field in just a text field yep on both the post and the and the uh admin page
01:11:04 yep um so let let's let's go through the blog setup okay um and then and then
01:11:12 we'll try to relate that to the custom setup okay okay
01:11:18 um so this is a blog list okay this is the blog list page I don't know what I even have does this display anything
01:11:26 okay I do have some blog posts in here okay so it this creates this layout okay
01:11:33 um and so um I have a block grid okay and inside that block grid I have a Blog Loop or a loop blog okay and all I have
01:11:43 to do is I give it the collection that I want to Loop through which is my blog okay all these others are all these other settings are just little uh things
01:11:51 that you can copy paste to make your life a little bit easier okay these are just sample macros okay now um inside
01:11:59 the blog Loop okay um it creates an instance of this block grid cell for each instance of the
01:12:08 blog okay um so um inside this block grid cell here let's uh here let's do
01:12:15 we'll do a side by side here there we go all right cool there we
01:12:26 go look at that we can get fancy here right here we can turn you can turn that
01:12:34 off all right so um this overall block grid is the entire block grid um this looping through and
01:12:42 it's creating a block grid cell for each blog post so it's going to each of these block grid cells is a blog post okay um
01:12:50 now uh let's look at inside this so here we have the object link stack okay this allows you to um easily
01:12:59 create a link to the object page okay um so in this case if I click on these uh the read more button right
01:13:09 uh or uh the the the image up here it will link to that blog post page okay um
01:13:18 and so this is really easy this is this makes it a lot easier than what we had before before you had to create your own link stack and then you had to link to the ID and all that [ __ ] okay um and
01:13:27 this will actually be even easier in the next version uh in the next beta because uh here you have to link to the page and
01:13:36 while I'll have that as an option by default it'll just link to whatever you uh is the saved link for that collection
01:13:43 okay so it'll even be easier in the next version okay um but here you give it um what is the object ID and here um the
01:13:51 object ID is a variable so it's post. ID okay and we know that if you if you don't know how you found that out it's right here right post.
01:14:07 likely going to be what it is okay um and because uh Bill if you didn't know this uh loop um remember in the normal
01:14:15 loop stack actually if we go into sorry if I'm this might confuse anyone else if we go to a normal loop stack you had to
01:14:23 like create what the variable is right so here it could be object or post or whatever you wanted it to be okay um
01:14:31 let me put that back so it's the same as it was before right um these these new uh loop Stacks that I created okay it
01:14:40 just default to post you can't even change it it's going to be post you have no choice right um so that way I know
01:14:48 it's always going to be post. ID post author post. categories post. content blah blah blah blah blah right so that I
01:14:55 know that um every instance of this is always going to be post ID is the ID um and so on and so forth so okay getting
01:15:04 back to it so we have the ID all I do is I link to my blog post page okay which you just use the link tool and browse to the actual post
01:15:12 page uh and then you can Define where you want it current window is going to be the default okay and that's it really it so really you just need to set the
01:15:20 the link and you set your ID and the ID is the default value of this is most likely going to be what you want okay
01:15:27 now uh and then we have the image stack which I think you've played around with enough um and hopefully the the new Ed variable settings here are I think I
01:15:36 think it they're awesome I like how they are I don't think we're going to change it from this because I think it's very usable okay so we Define uh the ID is post. ID and then we have the collection
01:15:45 of blog property image and this will bring in as you see over here these are the images for these blog
01:15:52 posts and then below this we just have our header we I just have a header stack and I just if I want the title I just put post. tile and in the header down
01:16:01 here I want the date um and if you look in here we I just copied and paste these examples directly from here so uh this
01:16:08 is post. dat and then we want to format it a particular way so we can pass it the format that we want the date to be
01:16:16 in um and then U below that I want to Output my my summary okay so um and we
01:16:23 do that and again this uh macro here is copy and pastable directly from the blog loop stack okay and then I have a uh a
01:16:32 container is and then a button now this is an object button okay so you don't even need to use a button stack and then
01:16:39 need to know how to link and all that stuff um so this object button is very is exactly the same as the object link
01:16:46 um where you just give it a uh the ID uh again the the default value here of post. ID is most likely going to be what it should be um you can give it the link
01:16:55 to the page just as we did um in the object link stack um and then you give it a button label obviously
01:17:03 um so uh and that is kind of how things will work in
01:17:09 blog right um any questions there looks good okay um now on the blog post
01:17:19 page okay so this is the page that loads all of the data so when I click on one of the right it takes me to uh that particular
01:17:28 page okay um for that blog post now in here what I need to do is I need to load the object okay so I use um the object
01:17:38 loaded stack or the object sorry the object stack and you say what collection is
01:17:45 getting loaded um and then you give it a variable name okay um it's possible that I I could create
01:17:54 something that is similar to that just default names the variable for you um but you could just keep the the default
01:18:01 which actually I think the default is object okay but um and then down here uh same thing for the image we just load in
01:18:09 the image we give it the ID which is post. ID and it's post because we gave it we said the variable name was going
01:18:15 to be post here okay um and then uh you know it is from The Collection blog and the property is image and that's the
01:18:23 image that will get loaded which is over here um and then same thing down here if I want to load the title the date now
01:18:30 here I'm loading the content instead of the summary because the content is available on the blog post page but it's
01:18:36 not in the blog list right um because not everything is available in the um collection
01:18:45 index um and then yeah um so pretty much the same thing uh we're not Lo here we're not looping right here we're just
01:18:53 um loading in a specific object and assigning it explicitly to a variable called post and I can then uh access all
01:19:01 the data through the same exact macros as we did on the list page any questions there yeah a little
01:19:10 one that's probably off topic but on that particular page where you put the word Post in is that something that you
01:19:17 could if you wanted to go off the beaten path change it to Fred and if you did it in every instance it would work yeah yep
01:19:25 you could do stamp and then here but now here you would have to do you know you'd have to reference the ID here is now stamp. ID okay right um so you'd have to
01:19:35 make sure that you know and then here would be stamp. tile stamp. dat right here here I'm giving you a a Blog so it
01:19:41 the the the term post makes sense right um but for uh for you uh you would use
01:19:49 you know stamp or whatever your you know your n clature is sure so because that's a single instance we don't have to worry
01:19:58 about it exactly we don't need to worry about uh you know um oh and Al I do have to say that uh it is important that you do
01:20:06 this load from URL okay because and the reason you do this is because the um the ID is loaded from the
01:20:15 URL okay okay so and if we look at this over here we see that we have the ID
01:20:22 okay is loaded via the URL here that was one that on the read more
01:20:28 button uh yes correct yeah
01:20:35 okay okay it's fun um so I I could go over this to show you how I would
01:20:43 potentially change things um so here we have the normal Loop um stack
01:20:53 now be honest we'll probably have to keep for custom collections you'll have to use the loop because I don't know a lot about what your data is so I don't
01:21:02 you know but it's not it's not too difficult right you would have you would put in your um here I'm just going to do stamps collection okay because I'm I know you're going to use stamps and and
01:21:11 your Loop through instead of you're just going to and oops you're going to name it each each instance will be called a
01:21:18 stamp okay um so we're going to Loop through um all of our all the the
01:21:24 objects inside the stamps collection and then we're going to uh inside each Loop
01:21:31 call it give it the stamp um variable right so what that means here um now I
01:21:39 could instead of this link container I would then
01:21:45 use the object link stack which is in the content helpers I think yeah so I
01:21:54 would use object link okay um so object link and then uh here
01:22:01 I would do um it would we're using stamp not post so here would be stamp.
01:22:09 ID right and then I would link to um my uh oh well this one doesn't have a a
01:22:17 page I yeah um you would then link to your your individual object page I don't have one created in this demo file yet
01:22:26 okay um but you would do that you would link just like you would link the blog okay and then here then you would add in your you know your content here so I
01:22:34 would add the image inside the object link um and then this would obviously be instead of object. ID it would be stamp.
01:22:42 ID um oh and we need to change this we need to get rid of this because I fixed this stack right um and we variables are
01:22:50 used in the object so now that will bring in our I'm sorry and the collection was stamps oh
01:22:58 yes correct okay stamps yeah um and property is I'll keep it as image but you know you could you could name the
01:23:05 property something other than image okay right um and then like I oh here then I had
01:23:15 both of them inside a building container so then here you instead of object. name you would do stamp. name
01:23:30 does that make sense a lot of sense Joe that'll give me some uh stuff to wrestle with between now and Friday cool so yeah I mean that this object link stack I
01:23:38 think is a big help because that link container well it's possible um this object link stack makes it much easier
01:23:46 yeah okay I haven't played with that cool um and like I said before um this form stack can be completely gone on now
01:23:55 um it's factory right if you if you really wanted that um you you could add in a
01:24:02 factory stack um and then You' give it your collection um how many you wanted to generate would you click the button
01:24:09 and there we go yeah I'm G to have to play with the factory stack because I haven't been
01:24:17 able to make it work yet but I think it's my setup I don't think it's it's its functionality at all okay um yeah I
01:24:24 I I haven't tested it with custom collection but it should work um I it does work with blog and and feed uh
01:24:31 right now um so yeah the other thing I was doing is the stuff at the bottom there's some some twig uh variables at
01:24:40 the bottom of your uh total cms3 OB Stacks yes uh in in the black area here
01:24:48 near the bottom and the black area oh these down here uh no over to the left just CL you just closed the library
01:24:57 I'm sorry it's in the library it's in the library got it sorry okay yeah so I was trying to do some of those conditionals uh yeah the conditional one
01:25:05 okay yeah and what I'm managing at this point is to make it not work like if I put in a else logic I'm getting exactly
01:25:14 what I expect when my question is wrong so so I can't figure out yet how to make the question right which brings
01:25:22 me back to my original um some simple stuff like what what is a valid question for me to be asking there
01:25:31 that I can get a yes answer to see the sure you know so something I mean I I made this quite Advanced where You' put in you know you have to put in the
01:25:39 correct syntax here right oh absolutely yeah um but I mean I I changed it to not equal and and and I get what I want like
01:25:47 I I know that I'm asking the wrong question and I'm getting the right answer to the wrong question got it okay yep
01:25:55 um so yeah uh with this probably one thing I would like to do is um maybe
01:26:01 come up with a find out what people want the most in a conditional and then maybe
01:26:08 make a more userfriendly uh version of that for the simple situations that people want most of the time okay but um
01:26:18 I do like this stack and I'm not going to remove it because I think it's it's powerful um yeah
01:26:24 um but yeah I'd have to know your specific condition to help you I was
01:26:31 just playing with an AB switch that was like I was trying to do something like you know if this field is empty then there's nothing here else there is
01:26:39 something here and here it is okay you know I I was just doing some simple logic stuff to get a feel for yep what's
01:26:45 kind of cool is uh if we go to The Twig docs we go to if Okay um
01:26:55 there is a bunch of now if you just want to do if a field is empty okay let's say like
01:27:04 um I'm just going to do object. text okay and let's say um if if it has if it has content or if it doesn't have
01:27:12 content you could just have just that so basically what this will do is um here
01:27:18 [Music]
01:27:20 uh just put in like uhop I wanted pink pink here it
01:27:40 is right okay um so in this case on this um this won't work in my project right
01:27:48 now but um just as an example um basically I could just say if object
01:27:55 text and what what that does by itself it checks whether or not it's empty or has some content in it right so if this
01:28:04 is empty um then basically um it will go to the else rule but if it has content
01:28:11 it will just display has content all right you can even do like
01:28:16 has content and then um object. text
01:28:25 okay so display it if it's not empty yeah exactly so um Now by by default um
01:28:33 if something is empty and you put a macro it just has empty anyway but uh in this case let's say um if it has content
01:28:41 I want to you know um you know put this with I don't know some other content underneath it I don't know right um yeah
01:28:49 uh but maybe and then in the else rule maybe you don't want to header because you don't want to have an empty header on the page maybe at that point you want
01:28:57 to have um maybe you make this a paragraph instead okay and then you just say um you know sorry buddy you know
01:29:07 something like that you know um so yeah you know if there is content then we can display in a header else just you know
01:29:15 have a paragraph instead that says sorry buddy all right um
01:29:24 but the if the if documentation on The Twig uh site um is pretty decent it shows quite a few examples okay and also
01:29:32 um it kind of gives you a little notes on how things are evaluated to be true or false right so if you see here empty
01:29:39 string so if object. text is an empty string um that results into a false um
01:29:47 you know evaluation right now conversely if you have a if you if you have a string that
01:29:56 is zero okay so let's say object. text contains the string of just zero that's
01:30:03 the only thing it contains that will actually also evaluate to false okay so a little Edge case to be
01:30:12 so not only not all not just empty strings but the string of zero will be also be false okay so it's basically doing a
01:30:20 cast to the Boolean isn't it correct okay yeah what I was trying to do was to
01:30:30 um sort of inquire about some of the uh other elements in in the in the blog
01:30:38 list or in in in on the page I was building so I didn't have to you know I knew what should make it false or should
01:30:47 make it true except that I couldn't couldn't grab a hold of now you can let's say you wanted to explicitly test
01:30:55 for empty because maybe zero is a possible valid value you could do if fu is
01:31:02 empty right right so so you could do stuff like that so in here I could do object test object. text is empty okay
01:31:12 and at that point zero would evaluate to true because you know um at that point zero is not
01:31:21 empty that sense evaluate oh no I'm sorry it would evaluate to false my bad good good yeah you could also I believe
01:31:28 you could also do is not empty as well right yeah well I was just doing the the typical C++ conditionals with equal sign
01:31:37 and and double equal sign and a okay exclamation mark equal sign and I was trying to access one of the fields and
01:31:44 have have a comparison to a literal in it stamp or was stamp you know yeah
01:31:53 double it's double equals and then inside quotes you would be you know uh my example or whatever right um so at
01:32:01 that case this would be you know explicitly the now object. test it needs to be exactly my example yes it can't be
01:32:10 Capital M's right it can't be anything like that it needs to be exactly that y
01:32:20 yeah that's wonderful Joe thank you very much no problem Joe
01:32:27 yes I don't know if you've ever used the progressive web apps where you able to
01:32:33 export another type of file I understand that Progressive web apps because it does a number of different things as
01:32:41 I've studied um and you can view a a website that's offline but can it can
01:32:48 the one that you have produce a file that I can place someplace else other than on a phone or or on a desktop I'll
01:32:57 give you an example say for instance if I wanted to make a mobile app um I know
01:33:04 that um I know that some of the uh apps can be used on mobile because
01:33:11 they shape for the display but if I if if there's a way to make a different type of file that say for instance I
01:33:18 could use a file output that I could put in a mobile app that I could develop into an app that you could push up to
01:33:26 the app app stor as a progressive web app are you familiar of how that file would
01:33:32 be um I I don't know um so I my stack just uses the
01:33:41 progressive web app features that are built into browsers okay so that um now
01:33:49 I I I do not know all the ins and outs of what you would need to do to to make
01:33:55 that then publishable to an app store um I know for Apple you would have to
01:34:02 have xcode and then you'd have to actually I mean it's more than just you know I have a website that's a pwa let me push it to the App Store um there's a
01:34:11 lot more involved in that um a lot more um and I don't know the ins and out ins and outside it's something that I would
01:34:18 love to uh eventually do or learn how to do um but you know my to-do list is so long I I don't know if or if I'll ever
01:34:27 get around to it or when I will um and uh I believe it it potentially might be easier on an Android um to get in the
01:34:35 App Store but again I I don't know the details for that yeah I think Android you can get an app on there quick with apple it takes months for them to allow
01:34:44 it yes test yeah but but it also sounded like you wanted to use something like what's
01:34:52 behind like ever note Evernote uses I can't remember what the framework name is but it's it's basically just HTML CSS
01:35:08 would you would do what you're looking for you gota go find the framework and I forget what it's called yeah there's a bunch of them out
01:35:16 there hey I was looking at your your video for audio Pro your new video and uh so I haven't bought it or anything
01:35:25 but I noticed that when you choose what type of audio you're playing yes uh the label says
01:35:33 image oh it does oops thanks you times I looked at that totally overlooked that
01:35:41 [Laughter]
01:35:42 one you look at something over and over again and it's easier to miss some else find it yeah I mean a lot of times when I start
01:35:51 from a setting I just like oh I know this setting that I had in this other stack is similar I just copy paste it and modify the values
01:36:01 thanks just just a quick one Joe because I know it's not a Friday or anything on
01:36:08 David a speak project now in normal CMS I know like I've got a my one and
01:36:16 another one I can find everything you know like where you do the um pretty URLs and everything
01:36:25 on his one I can't even see that wait so on his in his project he
01:36:35 doesn't have pretty URLs set up in the CMS core on the admin or it I just can't find it it just oh you can't find it to
01:36:44 set the pretty URLs yeah I can't I just I've done every little tick box just can't
01:36:51 find every other thing I've used it's there yeah got a list of things I was going to ask you Frid I just
01:36:58 remembered yeah um that particular I've never I don't have that project but I don't think I have that project yeah I'll show you it it's I've got it up on
01:37:07 the screen see now that that's the uh the CMS core for the that's the
01:37:15 um yeah that's the the content side right yep so and then if we go to the
01:37:23 admin one which is over here oh well yeah there's the admin core
01:37:34 yeah I see now now the pretty URLs though is set on the blog post
01:37:43 stack ah yeah I was looking at the blog not the blog post good point yeah yes so
01:37:51 uh probably under content maybe there blog post up up up up up the first stack in there oh yeah there you go and then
01:38:01 pretty URL it's set to default so then you would need to set that to be pretty and then and then preview the page and do all that stuff you need to do to set
01:38:08 up pretty URLs yeah I knew I was looking I know I was just looking in the wrong place yeah I got all that agent Lang
01:38:16 stuff my head
01:38:17 [Laughter]
01:38:19 been yeah so I I like how I set this up for uh in CS 3 I think that whole process is
01:38:26 going to be easier um um so yeah cool well guys anything else I know
01:38:34 we've gone almost two hours now time flies we having fun right um any other questions I'm happy to uh stay on and help anybody else else we'll call it
01:38:42 today I'm gonna go and play with what Josh said that um CSS thing
01:38:50 cool just one tiny little question Joe sure and this is not a trick it's and I can't find it but somewhere I saw when
01:38:58 you click on the show blog macros yeah am I right that you should never see a set of curly braces like open Clos curly
01:39:07 brace with nothing in it
01:39:15 um I don't know if if that would be valid or not I mean in my stuff I I don't think I I would Oh you mean like
01:39:22 when you're doing the macro stuff no I'm I'm just um you know whatever you're doing anytime I as you know I like to
01:39:31 have that macro on all the time just so I'm seeing excuse me what I'm seeing and if I had that on and I came to a
01:39:39 situation where one of the parameters was Curly bra open curly ba brace closed with nothing inside it I'm
01:39:49 assuming there's a problem yeah I I would think so okay yeah I'll dig I'll dig further but I just I just wanted that reference thank
01:39:57 you no problem excellent well guys I think we'll call it a
01:40:04 day thanks Joe thank you guys have a good week see you Friday take care see you guys Friday bye bye bye see I'll see
01:40:13 you tomorrow Joe uh Sean yeah
