Hello, I have this structure dagboek ----- 2005 -------- january ------- februari ------2006 ------january ------februari And now the client wants to start with januari 2005 and when the last article is displayed the next article displayed is the one of january 2006. Is this possible in PW ? Roelof

Hello, I found this thread which can be a solution : http://processwire.com/talk/topic/18-how-do-i-import-lots-of-data-into-pages/ The only thing I have to figure out how I can make from datum the year and the month. Roelof

Hello, I have now a site made by symphony cms where I use the flat structure approach. Now I want to make the site in PW in a nested structure like this way : dagboek/year/month/pagenumber. I know that Symphony cms can make a output in csv format but I think when I read that file in things will go wrong because the change in approach. Anyone a idea how to solve this except copying one by one which takes me months work. Roelof

Forget it. You can make it with the pages and settings page.

Maybe now a stupid question but what is the right way to make a nested structure like I need. Roelof

Sorry, I think it is not wise to give a respons when I just out of bed. I;m thinking to use the nested structure only I have to look how I can best import my articles from my old site. This one is made of a flat approach. Roelof

Thanks Soma. On the nested structure how do I make the menu ? Roelof

I found a tutorial about categorizing and here the answers : 1. Q: What items on my site are the main items of interest? A: Things that happens the live of my daugther. 2. Q: What attributes of our items of interests are we interested in? A: articles 3. Do the things that happen have sub-categories? A: Yes. 4.Can Articles belong to multiple sub-categories? A: yes. year and months. I hope the answers are right otherwise I hope someone can set me to the right track. Roelof

Hello, I have a site I want to make a PW site. At this moment. I have a big section called dagboek where all the data is in. Some 800 articles. As a layout im thinking about this one : http://20thingsIlearned.com For my site I think it's the best way to have all the articles of a month and a year in the html code because it's look like 20things is working that way, Every page in a layer and only the current page visible. My url looks like this on my old site http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/year/month/pagenumber Because of the layout im thinking about displaying one articles on each page. Roelof

Hello, I did a little more investigating how the example site works. Appearently I need to make all the pages hidden except the current one. So I think that the structure /dagboek/year/month/pagenumber is the best. I can then make a hidden directory where I can set which page must be hidden and which not. Roelof

On that point you are right. What I try to achieve is a menu like the one I have now on my site and I know I have to learn a lot but what the best way to get to my goal. Porting my site (http://www.tamarawobben.nl) to a new layout like 20thingslearned and keep it managble. But what then the best way to do it I still do not have a clue. Roelof

At this moment the datastructure is not as my example but I could make it that way. Now I put everything in the structure dagboek with as fields datum(date), titel (title) and the tekst (text ) Im looking for the easist way to make things working. Roelof

Thanks, I think I can use some of the ideas. The only thing I could not find is a way to make a list of unique months and years. I could use the idea how the blog is doing it but if I make everything manually I get a very very big file. I have about 8 years articles. Roelof

Oke, Let me ask real questions. I have a custom field named datum. Which contains the date something happens. Now I need a menu like this : <div class="categories"> <ul class="menu" id="menu1"> <li> <a href="#">2005</a> <ul class="acitem"> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2005/02/1">februari</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2005/03/1">maart</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2005/04/1">april</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2005/05/1">mei</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2005/06/1">juni</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2005/07/1">juli</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2005/08/1">augustus</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2005/09/1">september</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2005/10/1">oktober</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2005/11/1">november</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2005/12/1">december</a> </li> </ul> </li> <li> <a href="#">2006</a> <ul class="acitem"> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2006/01/1">januari</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2006/02/1">februari</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2006/03/1">maart</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2006/04/1">april</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2006/05/1">mei</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2006/06/1">juni</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2006/07/1">juli</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2006/08/1">augustus</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2006/09/1">september</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2006/10/1">oktober</a> </li> <li> <a href="http://www.tamarawobben.nl/dagboek/2006/12/1">december</a> </li> </ul> </li> <li> <a href="#">2007</a> How can I make this. There could be more then 1 article in a month but I need every month one time. Roelof

Thanks, Everyhing works now fine. So it's now time to try to solve the validation errors. Last question : This script works that everything is already in the html code and that the only the page you want is not hidden. The rest is hidden. I have a site with some 800 pages. I think things will be very slow this way. Is there another solution but that the book still works ? if so, can someone help me to port this to PW. Roelof

I have found the source code but I cannot find out what I have to change to show my own background-image

Oke, maybe I must made my book image much smaller around 800 px ? I get inspired by this idea : http://www.20thingsilearned.com/nl-NL and I thought I could use the left page for a menu and the right page for the tekst. Roelof

yes, That's correct but I want to center it horizontally and vertically. If I do that will it Always center even if the browser changes size. Roelof

Hello, The problem is that I want to center the book image in the center of the browser and it must be centered in every browser and size. In that div I need two content area. One for the left and one for the right page. The red div must be cover the white area of the left page. Roelof

Hello, I'm trying to develop a new theme for my site. First I try to make it with html5 and css3. But I stuck now. You can see the problem at http://test2.tamarawobben.nl Anyone who can help me figure out what is wrong ? Roelof

Thanks, So if I can these line to my articles I will work. I hope you can help me with another "problem" Can I have a prev - next link for flipping instead of the corner of a page ? Roelof

Thanks, I already found that way but I do see if I have to prepare all the pages before or can I take per page the text ? Roelof

Hello, I have another idea which I want to try for my website ( http:///www.tamarawobben.nl) I saw this jgeuary plugin ( turn.js) where you can make some sort of book like website. Now I wonder if someone get something like this working with Processwire and if I then can make the text in the layout dynamic. Roelof
