List of all available settings

PAGE_TEMPLATES

PAGE_TEMPLATES is a list of tuples that specifies the which templates are available in the pages admin. Templates should be assigned in the following format:

PAGE_TEMPLATES = (
    ('pages/nice.html', 'nice one'),
    ('pages/cool.html', 'cool one'),
)

One can also assign a callable (which should return the tuple) to this setting to achieve dynamic template list e.g.:

def _get_templates():
    # to avoid any import issues
    from app.models import PageTemplate
    return PageTemplate.get_page_templates()

PAGE_TEMPLATES = _get_templates

Where the model might look like this:

class PageTemplate(OrderedModel):
    name = models.CharField(unique=True, max_length=100)
    template = models.CharField(unique=True, max_length=260)

    @staticmethod
    def get_page_templates():
        return PageTemplate.objects.values_list('template', 'name')

    class Meta:
        ordering = ["order"]

    def __unicode__(self):
        return self.name

PAGE_DEFAULT_TEMPLATE

You must set PAGE_DEFAULT_TEMPLATE to the path of your default template:

PAGE_DEFAULT_TEMPLATE = 'pages/index.html'

PAGE_LANGUAGES

A list tuples that defines the languages that pages can be translated into:

gettext_noop = lambda s: s

PAGE_LANGUAGES = (
    ('zh-cn', gettext_noop('Chinese Simplified')),
    ('fr-ch', gettext_noop('Swiss french')),
    ('en-us', gettext_noop('US English')),
)

PAGE_DEFAULT_LANGUAGE

Defines which language should be used by default. If PAGE_DEFAULT_LANGUAGE not specified, then project’s settings.LANGUAGE_CODE is used:

LANGUAGE_CODE = 'en-us'

PAGE_LANGUAGE_MAPPING

PAGE_LANGUAGE_MAPPING must be a function that takes the language code of the incoming browser as an argument.

This function can change the incoming client language code to another language code, presumably one for which you are managing trough the CMS.

This is useful if your project only has one set of translation strings for a language like Chinese, which has several variants like zh-cn, zh-tw, zh-hk, but you don’t have a translation for every variant.

PAGE_LANGUAGE_MAPPING help you to server the same Chinese translation to all those Chinese variants, not just those with the exact zh-cn locale.

Enable that behavior here by assigning the following function to the PAGE_LANGUAGE_MAPPING variable:

# here is all the languages supported by the CMS
PAGE_LANGUAGES = (
    ('de', gettext_noop('German')),
    ('fr-fr', gettext_noop('Swiss french')),
    ('en-us', gettext_noop('US English')),
)

# copy PAGE_LANGUAGES
languages = list(PAGE_LANGUAGES)

# Other languages accepted as a valid client language
languages.append(('fr-fr', gettext_noop('French')))
languages.append(('fr-be', gettext_noop('Belgium french')))

# redefine the LANGUAGES setting in order to be sure to have the correct request.LANGUAGE_CODE
LANGUAGES = languages

# Map every french based language to fr-fr
def language_mapping(lang):
    if lang.startswith('fr'):
        return 'fr-fr'
    return lang
PAGE_LANGUAGE_MAPPING = language_mapping

PAGES_MEDIA_URL

URL that handles pages media. If not set the default value is:

<STATIC_URL|MEDIA_URL>pages/

PAGE_UNIQUE_SLUG_REQUIRED

Set PAGE_UNIQUE_SLUG_REQUIRED to False to not enforce unique slug names for all pages.

PAGE_CONTENT_REVISION

Set PAGE_CONTENT_REVISION to False to disable the recording of pages revision information in the database

SITE_ID

Set SITE_ID to the id of the default Site instance to be used on installations where content from a single installation is served on multiple domains via the django.contrib.sites framework.

PAGE_USE_SITE_ID

Set PAGE_USE_SITE_ID to True to make use of the django.contrib.sites framework

PAGE_USE_LANGUAGE_PREFIX

Set PAGE_USE_LANGUAGE_PREFIX to True to make the get_absolute_url method to prefix the URLs with the language code

PAGE_CONTENT_REVISION_EXCLUDE_LIST

Assign a list of placeholders to PAGE_CONTENT_REVISION_EXCLUDE_LIST to exclude them from the revision process.

PAGE_SANITIZE_USER_INPUT

Set PAGE_SANITIZE_USER_INPUT to True to sanitize the user input with html5lib.

PAGE_HIDE_ROOT_SLUG

Hide the slug’s of the first root page ie: /home/ becomes /

PAGE_SHOW_START_DATE

Show the publication start date field in the admin. Allows for future dating Changing the PAGE_SHOW_START_DATE from True to False after adding data could cause some weirdness. If you must do this, you should update your database to correct any future dated pages.

PAGE_SHOW_END_DATE

Show the publication end date field in the admin, allows for page expiration Changing PAGE_SHOW_END_DATE from True to False after adding data could cause some weirdness. If you must do this, you should update your database and null any pages with publication_end_date set.

PAGE_CONNECTED_MODELS

PAGE_CONNECTED_MODELS allows you to specify a model and form for this model into your settings to get an automatic form to create and directly link a new instance of this model with your page in the admin:

PAGE_CONNECTED_MODELS = [
    {'model':'documents.models.Document',
        'form':'documents.models.DocumentForm'},
]

PAGE_TINYMCE

Set this to True if you wish to use the django-tinymce application.

PAGE_EXTRA_CONTEXT

This setting is a function that can be defined if you need to pass extra context data to the pages templates.
