expand_less Woud fit to be able to [[use image card for background image]] at the same time.



I just want to note that it's ok (and often preferable) if the layout is an html card (or just a basic card with some html classes in it) and accomplishes some things that we currently do via layout files. The only logic that's currently in the logo, for example, is about using text if there's no image, but since we now default with an image, and the layout will be fully configurable, we can drop that. So I'm removing a bunch of the logo / sidebar stuff from the solution.

also, the help/error messages seen above cards are generally handled on a different layer from the layout.

a crude version is up for testing on dwagn. lots of changes still in the works.

Cool, basically looks great so far!
 

 
How do these double-star cards work? They don't show up as either real or virtual.
 


 

Want editable - **head (opens *many* possibilities) - workaround would be to have the head /head tags in the HTML, as on http://test.dwagn.org/wagn/Default_Layout (ah, but i see that those tags are wanted in **head so as to be able to not have a head tag at all)

Nice to have: **top_menu, **account_links, **bottom_menu, **foot

Okay uneditable - **logo, **alerts

 


 
I see _main, so i tagged [[add reference syntax for main card of page]] with Wagn 1.2

I'm editing the solution to match what i'm seeing - double-stars, underscores instead of spaces, added **logo

I flipped the main and sidebar columns on test. Trivial - http://test.dwagn.org/wagn/*layout and http://test.dwagn.org/wagn/*css

we want to change what we build to match the solution, not the solution to match the spike. changed all that back :)

John, there will be no double star cards, and they won't work like they do now (a hack on inclusions). They'll be virtual cards.
 

 
Re editability: we should be able to add things to head, but not to remove things that will break everything.

Have added another major round of changes: edits to layout itself, having *layout be a pointer referring to Html layout card, and using virtual cards in the layout.

Hey Lew, I have a question about this one:
 

 
Should we move context="main" into a new div that gets created when you render {{_main}}. That seems like the relevant place to have the "main" context, and it removes a potentially confusing way to break things (if you forget that in a layout). I'm thinking if we want to do this we might want to fix it before the release -- would be harder to do later after everyone had already done their thing, right?  --
