can't remove aliased page, login page layout

Permalink
Hey guys,
Congrats on concrete5. I quickly dumped another CMS I was mid-stream in implementing for yours.. what took a week+ I accomplished in a few hours with concrete. I'm in portland too, so that's a bonus.

So on to the problems.. I created an aliased page, attempting to duplicate a content item in my autonav structure. Now, in the site manager, I cannot for the life of me delete it, it says I do not have permissions.

I was able to get around it by deleting the entire parent item, finally got that to work, but now I'll need to recreate the structure and pages. Not a big deal, but once this is live it will be..

Also need the $v->setThemeByPath('/login', "yourtheme"); to work in /config/site_theme_paths.php. after dinking around with that for an hour or so I discovered that it *really* isn't implemented yet.

is there a way to customize the login, register, and other built-in pages to be wrapped in my layout?

sdc,

While I cannot comment on the alias issue I can say that the configuration option you're referring to is working for us.

Here's what we have in our config/site_theme_paths.php file that works for login/register:

<?php
defined('C5_EXECUTE') or die(_("Access Denied."));
$myv = View::getInstance();
// you can override system layouts here  - but we're not going to by default */
$myv->setThemeByPath('/login', "custom_theme");
$myv->setThemeByPath('/register', "custom_theme");


I think the problem is the examples given have the improper naming method ($v-> vs $myv->)

Hope this helps

thanks!
for anyone else reading this, you also need to make a view.php in your template folder and add this where you want the login box:
<?php 
  print $innerContent;
?>

That page aliasing bug is frustrating, as this bug has reared its ugly head on several occasions in the past. We will add this as a high priority.

If you're having trouble deleting aliased pages, this may be an issue just with the admin account. Try creating a new user account, and assign them to the administrators group. Then, login with them. Try accessing the dashboard sitemap and deleting the page. I was able to do this. The bug lies in some code that's custom loaded just for the super user.

added another 'administrator' user and I was able to delete.
