Lets logged-in user flag page content

FlagPages 1.0.0

Module for ProcessWire: lets logged-in users flag pages.

With this module, a logged in user can flag/unflag pages, on whose template the flag link (see below) has been placed. These flags serve as "personal bookmarks" and are not a site-wide sticky setting.

Usage


On the module's config page you can set the user roles allowed to flag pages.

On the markup side, FlagPages module consists of two parts: Rendering the link and rendering a list with your current bookmarks.

First of all, load the module via:

$flags = $modules->get("FlagPages");

Rendering flag toggle link

Then, use the renderLink method and place the output in your template. By adding the link to all or just certain templates, you can control which templates can be flagged and which can't.

echo $flags->renderLink();

The default output will be "Add {Name} to flags", or "Remove {Name} from flags". You can override these labels with parameters. For example:

echo $flags->renderLink("Add %s to my bookmarks", "Remove %s from my bookmarks");

Rendering the flagged pages list

echo $flags->renderList();

This will output a simple unordered list with links to pages the currently logged-in user has set a flag to.

echo $flags->renderList("classname foo bar");

Optional: If you would like to apply HTML classes on the generated unordered list, supply them as a string to the function's parameter.

Outputting the flagged pages count of the logged in user

echo $flags->showFlagCount();

Returns the count of flagged pages.

“To Drupal, or to ProcessWire? The million dollar choice. We decided to make an early switch to PW. And in retrospect, ProcessWire was probably the best decision we made. Thanks are due to ProcessWire and the amazing system and set of modules that are in place.” —Unni Krishnan, Founder of PigtailPundits
