Hi all,
I'm working on an upgrade to django-cms 3 (eventually up to the latest
stable version, for now 3.0.18) and am running into an issue with apphooks.
Previously our site has used {% placeholder 'foo' inherit %} on the root of
sub-trees of pages that may include apphooked pages. These apphooked pages
were themselves using templates that referred to this placeholder and were
therefore able to inherit plugins from the root. (The plugins in question
relate to a special custom menu app.)
Now, however, it seems that this will not work
<http://docs.django-cms.org/en/release-3.4.x/how_to/apphooks.html#apphooks-and-placeholder-template-tags>.
Indeed, when I try to visit one of these hooked pages, I get this error
(sanitized for specifics):
PlaceholderNotFound at <url>
"<placeholder_name>" placeholder not found in an apphook application.
Please use a static placeholder instead.
The solution to this would seem to be to turn the placeholder into a static
placeholder—which means creating a new template for each page that
previously served as the root of a sub-tree of pages that inherited
placeholder content. Is that right?
Creating a whole battery of new ad hoc templates seems like a pretty
labor-intensive and inelegant solution to this problem. I'm wondering
whether anyone else has encountered this issue with apphook templates and
arrived at some tidier way to fix it.
Best,
Neil
