Hi all,

The trunk version of Steer CMS has now holds a swathe of new updates -
one of which being a new interface design. We will test over the
weekend and have a pre packed sandbox available early next week.

More update info here.

If you feel enthusiastic or are already running on the SVN version of
Steer CMS, feel free to give a whirl.

After many hosting-related memory management hassles, I finally
managed to install the new version of SteerCMS from the svn trunk.

After logging in I have no stylesheets - in the source I see the
following

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="/steer/cms/
cms/themes/steer_simple/styles/steer_simple.css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="/steer/cms/
cms/js/lightwindow/css/lightwindow.css" />

Is this a templating problem?

Thanks
Rob

Hi Rob,

Hmm... well the href values for those css link are definitely incorrect.

/steer/cms/cms/themes/steer_simple/styles/steer_simple.css

So that should be:

/cms/themes/steer_simple/styles/steer_simple.css

But I don't think it's a template problem.

Taking a look at the /apps/backend/config/view.yml file I can see the style sheet is correctly being referenced to:

/cms/themes/steer_simple/styles/steer_simple

Is the project installed with the web as the apache root?

/steer/cms/cms/themes/steer_simple/styles/steer_simple.css

I'm curious  about where this is coming from?

- Piers

Hi Piers,

SteerCMS is installed at ~/symfonyprojects/steerCMS/

I don't have a special apache site for it ( I don't have access to the
config file) but have added a symbolic link to ~/symfonyprojeect/
steerCMS/web as /public_html/steer

Thus the backend is mysite.com/steer/cms

It looks like the css href values are having the cms path prepended to
the path in the view.yml

I fixed it by editing the javascript and css paths in view.yml to
prepend /steer/ on each path.
It now has

stylesheets: [/steer/cms/themes/steer_simple/styles/
steer_simple, /steer/cms/js/lightwindow/css/lightwindow.css]
javascripts: [/steer/js/prototype, /steer/js/scriptaculous, /
steer/cms/themes/steer_simple/javascripts/steer_simple,
/steer/js/lightwindow/javascript/lightwindow]

I also needed to add a .htaccess rule to rewrite /steer/cms/sf to /sf,
but that's a quirk of my host A2hosting. (I've added documentation
about this to their wiki at http://wiki.a2hosting.com/index.php/Symfony)

Now I'm off and running. I'll let you know when there's something
there worth looking at!

Thanks
Rob
