• Version: 1.0.0
• Date: March 29 2020
• Release notes
• GitHub repository

Collection of the original SymphonyCMS fields with the ability to enable, disable, install, and uninstall specific fields as required. Includes the original Date, Input, Textarea, Select, Taglist, Author, Checkbox, and Upload fields that came with an original Symphony install.

Installation

This is an extension for Symphony CMS. Add it to your /extensions folder in your Symphony CMS installation, run composer update to install required packages and then enable it though the interface.

Requirements

This extension requires PHP 7.3 or greater.

The Console Extension for Symphony CMS must also be installed.

This extension depends on the following Composer libraries:

• PHP Helpers

Setup

1. Run composer update on the extension/classicfields directory to install these.
2. Ensure that you have installed the Console Extension for Symphony CMS. Run the following command inside your extensions/ folder: git clone https://github.com/pointybeard/console.git and then observe the installation instructions in console/README.md.
3. Make extensions/classicfields/fields writable, e.g. chmod 0777 extensions/classicfields/fields. When a field is enabled or installed, a symbolic link to the actual field is generated here.
4. (optional) Make symphony/lib/toolkit/fields writable so this extension manage adding and removing symbolic links. This is necessary if you are using the 2.7.10-extended or 2.7.10-extended-essentials branch of Symphony.

Usage

To enable, disable, install, or uninstall a Classic Field, use the same named command on the console like so: symphony classicfields -t <token> <action> <target-field>

For example:

symphony classicfields -t 123456 enable select
symphony classicfields -vvv -t 123456 uninstall input

See options available by adding --help after a command

symphony classicfields input --help
