v1.6.0
What's changed?
- Improved confirmation messages when saving a menu in the admin area.
- Added a new test to submit the
MainMenu
edit form and check that
it behaves as expected. - Added some styles to menu add/edit/copy views to improve the UI.
- Added a new
context_processor
to handle some of the logic that was
previously being done in template tags. Django'sSimpleLazyObject
class is
used to reduce the overhead as much as possible, only doing the work when the
values are accessed by menu tags. - Added the
WAGTAILMENUS_GUESS_TREE_POSITION_FROM_PATH
setting to allow
developers to disable the 'guess tree position from path' functionality
that comes into play when serving custom views, where thebefore_serve_page
hook isn't activated, andwagtailmenu_params_helper()
inwagtail_hooks.py
doesn't get to add it's helpful values to the request/context. - Updated tox environment settings to run tests against wagtail==1.7, and
updated pinned wagtail version insetup.py
to reflect compatibility. - Added unicode support for python 2.7 and added missing verbose_names to
fields so that they can be translated (Alexey Krasnov & Andy Babic). - Added support for a
WAGTAILMENUS_FLAT_MENUS_HANDLE_CHOICES
setting that, if
set, will turn theCharField
used for FlatMenu.handle in add/edit/copy
forms into aChoiceField
, with that setting as the available choices.
Upgrade Considerations
Adding the context_processor
to settings
Wagtailmenus now requires a context_processor
to be active in order for menu tags to work. If upgrading to version 1.6.0
, you'll need to update the TEMPLATES
setting to include the new context_processor, like so:
TEMPLATES = [
{
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
'DIRS': [
os.path.join(PROJECT_ROOT, 'templates'),
],
'APP_DIRS': True,
'OPTIONS': {
'context_processors': [
'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth',
'django.template.context_processors.debug',
'django.template.context_processors.i18n',
'django.template.context_processors.media',
'django.template.context_processors.request',
'django.template.context_processors.static',
'django.template.context_processors.tz',
'django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages',
'wagtail.contrib.settings.context_processors.settings',
'wagtailmenus.context_processors.wagtailmenus',
],
},
},
]
