We are considering the use of Page definitions, within a CMS project that has a single base-page / wireframe template; the base page template has a main content container, into which a separate page component or components can be dropped into place.
After creating a simple page definition which is a base page + single component (a simple text) box and then creating a page instance using the page Definition (via either Nav Manager or Create/Connect page), the facility gives me the chance to change the headline of the BASE page, but NOT of any other component page included in the page definition (components are created with a default page headline of: [Template name][Component Page ID]). I can see that this could be a bit of a nightmare for our content manager (from a workflow perspective) and would therefore like to develop a plugin which is activated immediately following page creation (via page definition) which does the following:- 1. Obtains the Page ID of the base page just created 2. Examines the container in the base page and obtains the details of the component page residing within (including the page headline, component template name and page ID of the component page) 3. If the headline of the component page is set to [Template name] [Component Page ID] then amend the headline of the component page, to prefix it with the page ID of the parent Base Page In this way, the content manager can see what component pages relate to a particular base page, within the "Pages waiting for release" Does anyone have a plugin that could be amended to suit this situation or know of one that does something similar? Alternatively, can anyone provide me with a basic plugin framework that I could use to develop the plugin myself (I have a reasonable amount of RQL experience, but it's not recent)? Is what I am suggesting even possible? I'd be very grateful to hear from any plugin Gurus out there...
