previously all the of the page routing was handlede through controller
organized by CRUD methods. it worked, but organizing by CRUD and not
purpose resulted in more time spent looking for a specific task through
controllers, so it turned out not to an effecient way of organizing.
so routing has been completely reorganized into laravel's web routing
section and methods have been moved to their appropriate controller so
tasks are much easier to find
front facing page routing turned out to be a bit more tricky that
anticipated do the overap of routing paths, but it only affects dynamic
page rendering and there's a patch in place that handles that issue
until a better solution is found. Rendered HTML pages works fine.
whew!
there were a couple of glaring issues with the responsiveness of the new
page ui layout, so some of the bigger ones have been addressed
there's was also a bug where the sub-menu options weren't getting picked
up when being assigned in the script. fixed
moved page meta data to it's own ui to clean up the page editing
experience as it was becoming a bit crowded.
also moved to saving and deleting buttons to title bar so they are
always available
added a note to web routes to reorganize them within the web routes file
to reduce the confusion present by having them in their own Controllers.
it's just an extra layer that's not needed
some script got removed during the restruction that included the js
handler for the mobile menu, so that was replaced with a css toggle to
keep it simple
main navigation had buttons nested inside of href tags to house previous
font icons that were removed, so the nesting is no longer needed and it
could introduce accessibility propblems, so it needed to be cleande up
now they are hrefs styled as the previous buttons so there is no visual
change in the UI
using a font for icons isn't great for site accessibility, so all font
icons will be removed and replaced with svgs.
nav and sub nav, page options and recent meta have been replaced
moved the page listing template over and made all of the apropriate
changes so the CSS lines up as it should
there was also a minor issue that was keeping the sub menu for the start
pages from displaying so that was fixed
Brought over a template from the old build to see how the conversion
process would go (it's not bad) and see if the CSS would still stick (it
did)
The wiring will be finished when the auth class is completed
