Sébastien Antoniotti	Sunday 08 June 2008 10:45:39 am Hi, After a complete day to try to make works eZ Flow, I'm asking me if eZ Flow is complete ! I just want to use overflow rules between two dynamic blocs who will display the same content (articles). The first block will have 4 items visibles, and the second block will display 10 item. So I would like the first block to display articles 1 to 4, and the second block to display articles 5 to 14. So I have defined my blocks like this : [block2] Name=block2 NumberOfValidItems=10 NumberOfArchivedItems=0 ManualAddingOfItems=disabled FetchClass=fetcharticles FetchParameters[] FetchParameters[Source]=nodeID FetchParameters[Class]=Class # Single / Multiple FetchParametersSelectionType[Source]=single FetchParametersSelectionType[Class]=multiple FetchParametersIsRequired[] # True / False FetchParametersIsRequired[Source]=true FetchParametersIsRequired[Class]=true ViewList[]=vue_liste ViewName[vue_liste]=Vue liste [block1] Name=block1 NumberOfValidItems=4 NumberOfArchivedItems=0 ManualAddingOfItems=disabled FetchClass=fetcharticles FetchParameters[] FetchParameters[Source]=nodeID FetchParameters[Class]=Class # Single / Multiple FetchParametersSelectionType[Source]=single FetchParametersSelectionType[Class]=multiple FetchParametersIsRequired[] # True / False FetchParametersIsRequired[Source]=true FetchParametersIsRequired[Class]=true ViewList[]=vue_liste ViewName[vue_liste]=Vue liste The fetcharticles class returns the articles ordered by publication date DESC, without limit. Then, I added the two blocks into my zone, set the parameters and selected block2 into the overflow dropdown of the block1. But I have the same content into the blocks, even if I run the ezflow cronjob... I'm going to became crazy with eZ Flow =( Thanks in advance for your help ! eZ Publish Freelance web : http://www.webaxis.fr
Bin LIU	Monday 09 June 2008 4:01:00 am Hi, I think you can fetch 14 article in the first block with NumberOfValidItems 4, and then, the reste 10 article will auto added into the second block. In this case, you must create a FetchClass with . Like this : [block1] Name=block1 NumberOfValidItems=4 NumberOfArchivedItems=0 ManualAddingOfItems=disabled FetchClass=fetcharticles FetchFixedParameters[] FetchFixedParameters[Class]=article FetchParameters[] FetchParameters[Source]=nodeID FetchParameters[Depth]=2 #this return 14 articles, so 10 article will added into the block 2 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FetchParameters[Limit]=14 FetchParametersSelectionType[Source]=single FetchParametersIsRequired[] FetchParametersIsRequired[Source]=true FetchParametersIsRequired[Depth]=true FetchParametersIsRequired[Limit]=true ViewList[]=ttt ViewName[ttt]=tttttt #Time for change the block after the crontab ezflow passed.

Sébastien Antoniotti	Monday 09 June 2008 10:41:31 am Hi Bin, Thanks a lot for your help, I've tried your solution but it doesn't works. Using your solution, did I still have to declare the block 2 like into my precedent post or I need to change something also into his declaration ? Cheers, Seb. eZ Publish Freelance web : http://www.webaxis.fr
Bin LIU	Monday 09 June 2008 2:21:34 pm yes, you should create the second block empty, by example block manual with NumberOfValidItems=10. and config the first block overflow the second your fetch class should be something like this : class fetcharticles extends eZFlowFetchInterface { function fetch( $parameters, $publishedAfter, $publishedBeforeOrAt ) { if ( isset( $parameters['Source'] ) ) { $nodeID = $parameters['Source']; $node = eZContentObjectTreeNode::fetch( $nodeID, false, false ); // not as an object } else { $nodeID = 0; } $subTreeParameters = array(); $subTreeParameters['AsObject'] = false; $subTreeParameters['SortBy'] = array( 'published', true ); /**************this is the last 14 article**************/ $subTreeParameters['Limit'] = isset( $parameters['Limit'] ) ? $parameters['Limit']:false; $subTreeParameters['Depth'] = isset( $parameters['Depth'] ) ? $parameters['Depth']:false; if ( isset( $parameters['Class'] ) ) { $subTreeParameters['ClassFilterType'] = 'include'; $subTreeParameters['ClassFilterArray'] = explode( ';', $parameters['Class'] ); } $result = eZContentObjectTreeNode::subTreeByNodeID( $subTreeParameters, $nodeID ); $fetchResult = array(); foreach( $result as $item ) { $fetchResult[] = array( 'object_id' => $item['contentobject_id'], 'node_id' => $item['node_id'], 'ts_publication' => $item['published'] ); } return $fetchResult; } } I wish it works for you === Lagardère Active === Fetch random http://projects.ez.no/la_fetch_random LA Static Cache http://projects.ez.no/lastaticcache LA Bookmarks (jquery) http://projects.ez.no/labookmark LA Calendar (jquery) http://projects.ez.no/lacalendar My site ez http://lingping.info
Sébastien Antoniotti	Tuesday 10 June 2008 1:26:39 pm It works! Thank you very much for your help, I was really blocked! With your advice and the latest version of svn extension, everything is back in order.
