Frontend Live demo
This demo uses only JS-scripts and standard CSS-styles from the Demo-theme of OctoberCMS and the Backend, there are no more additional scripts and post-processing (therefore styles can be superimposed and some artifacts are possible) https://backtofront.test.linkonoid.com/useraccount

Why is this plugin paid?
- This is not a trivial plugin and it took a lot of time to develop it. The real development cost is much higher
- You are guaranteed to receive support. Unfortunately, time a developer costs money
- Need to pay demo servers
- You help the OctoberCMS project to develop, as 30% of the payment goes to its development
- I would love to make this plugin public, but even the minimum fee gives an incentive to its further development and support
This plugin is also included into the following bundle
Little theory:
Backend Widget == Frontend Component (not "===" :)
To fully adapt the functionality of the widgets, you need to meet several simultaneous requirements:
- Each widget must have a component in the frontend;
- Each new component must have nested partials connected;
- Corresponding styles and scripts from the backend should be connected to each new component.
In this plugin, this is implemented using fully standard OctoberCMS tools, as far as its core allows, without using third-party scripts and code inclusions (including without post-processing of content).
During the development of the plugin, minor bugs and flaws in 3 CMS files (Filter.php, Search.php and _scope_text.htm) were found out. They are eliminated with the help of a hack (replacing the corresponding files directly from the plugin settings)
Included with this plugin comes a test plugin "TestBTFPlugin" with 2 models and a 2 controllers (it is also present in the demo on the site)
Beginning of work:
-
Install Plugin and go to Settings for modify CMS core files (Or correct your manually from the vendor folder, there are my comments), and install supports RainlabUser plugin (not necessary).
-
Create new CMS page and write Url in this format: /..../paths/..../:alias?/:crud?/:id?
- alias - alias component variable;
- crud - CRUD operation name variable;
- id - record ID for CRUD operation variable;
-
Include on page selected Components from:
- BackToFront (it`s complex component) - include Lists, Toolbar, Filter, Search, FormWidgets ( 'codeeditor', 'richeditor', 'markdown', 'fileupload', 'datepicker', 'timepicker', 'colorpicker', datatable', 'recordfinder', 'repeater', 'taglist', 'mediafinder','nestedform'). For BackToFront select used controller and installs others options (alls intuitive).
- MediaManager - include MediaManager widget, support all functional. This Component use default Alias 'ocmediamanager' - this name used in js scripts and not change programmatical.
- ReportWidget - include ReportContainer and all plugins Report widgets. Select widget from list widgets (Not all widgets have rights to view frontend users!).
-
In page layout must necessarily attend this scripts (from Demo-theme):
<script src="{{ 'assets/vendor/jquery.js'|theme }}"></script> <script src="{{ 'assets/vendor/bootstrap.js'|theme }}"></script> {% framework extras %} {% scripts %}
Soon I will add a more detailed guide, while this is quite enough to get started, because setting is almost the same as using standard components.
