Hi,

I never got a response to this. Surely there's some dialog guru hiding out there? :)

Good news is I managed to work it out. Considering the same question was unanswered on two other occasions I've written a wiki page that describes how to get this functionality working using tree configuration.

http://wiki.magnolia-cms.com/display/WIKI/Link+Control+-+Open+Specific+Path

Ideally, a "rootPath" configuration value should just be added to the link and uuidLink control. Would save all the additional tree configuration.

Cheers,

Brent

Subject: [magnolia-user] Link Control - Open to path?


Hi Everyone,


In summary, we're using the 'uuidLink' control in one of our dialogs to link one piece of content to another. The content the author will be linking to will always be in a known repository and a known deep link for example:

/dms/images/animals/mammals/cat/small

From a usability perspective it's difficult for the user to browse the tree to this location each time. Does anyone know how to specify a path?

I'm looking at info.magnolia.cms.gui.dialog.DialogLink class (parent of DialogUUIDLink). The only candidate looks like the "tree" config value:

       String tree = this.getConfigValue("tree", repository);

Does anyone know the syntax/format of tree values? Any value I put in there seems to cause an exception when the dialog opens.

There have been a couple of past unanswered questions on this here:

Cheers,

Brent
