Hi there! Sorry, AGAIN a question from me about handling and updating structure objects… I have a a structure that holds credits (role and name) for a project. Now I want to add a single row that is generated programmatically to this within my controller. I thought I could use the StructureObjec…

Let’s use the Starterkit as an example: $structure = page('about')->social()->toStructure(); $count = $structure->count(); $so = new Kirby\Cms\StructureObject(['id' => $count, 'parent' => page('about'), 'content' => [ 'platform' => 'Facebookshit', 'url' => 'https://facebookshit.com' ]]); forea…

Well I did not get much further than $so = new StructureObject(); and that already raises the error. Or do I not need a structureObject at all? Is there a built-in structure method to use instead? Edit: And yes, I also tried to pass a key/value array in the structureObject constructor, same error…

[image] trych: $so = new StructureObject(); The $props array is required and as a minimum need the id. Call it with the full class name*: $so = new Kirby\Cms\StructureObject(['id' => 'whatever']); If you dump that, you get something this: Kirby\Cms\StructureObject Object ( [content:pro…

[image] texnixe: $structure = page(‘about’)->social()->toStructure(); $count = $structure->count()-1; $so = new Kirby\Cms\StructureObject([‘id’ => $count, ‘parent’ => page(‘about’), ‘content’ => [ ‘platform’ => ‘Facebookshit’, ‘url’ => ‘ https://facebookshit.com ’ ]]); foreach ($structure as $item…

Oops, sorry, I forgot to copy this line before looping though the result: $structure->add($so);

Ah, now it works. Also, $count = $structure->count()-1; should be $count = $structure->count() instead if the item needs to be added to the end, else the last item will be overwritten. Thanks! Why is structureObject missing from the aliases? Should I prepare a PR to add it or is it omitted on purp…

[image] trych: Why is structureObject missing from the aliases? Because there are only aliases for the most important classes. I don’t think it would make sense to have aliases for all classes. You can find the full names for all classes in the docs and also a list of aliases. If you need a…

Ok, but then should the constructor not be documented differently? new Kirby\Cms\StructureObject(array $props) And maybe a hint that the id field is required. (Sorry that I keep pointing out stuff in the docs, but I think having stuff complete and consistent will help all users in the long term. …

[image] trych: Ok, but then should the constructor not be documented differently? No, you can’t change this, because this is generated automatically from the source code. The full class name is given below the headline. We would have to generally change this then.

I have trouble adding items to the structure field. My page being $e, I’m trying: $structure = $e->links()->toStructure(); $count = $structure->count(); $i = 0; foreach ($urls as $u) { $so = new Kirby\Cms\StructureObject([ 'id' => $count + $i, 'parent' => $e, 'content' => [ 'l…

If you want to store this stuff rather than just output in on the frontend, you have to store it first, $page->update().

In that case, using yml is the better option, see the famous addToStructure() method here
