Twig

Add blocks to the Twig

{% block content %}
    <div vocab='http://schema.org/' typeof='Content'>
        <h1 property='title'>{{ content.title }}</h1>

        <div property='article'>
            {{ content.article|raw }}
        </div>

        {% include '@Block/html5-blocks.html.twig' %}
        {% include '@Block/html5-blocks.html.twig' with {element: 'aside', collection: 'banners'} %}
    </div>
{% endblock %}

Override Twig templates

Create the following structure to override blocks via Twig templates/bundles/PixelBlockBundle. If you wish to override the following block Resources/views/html5/parts/images.html.twig, you must create the next file : templates/bundles/PixelBlockBundle/html5/parts/images.html.twig.

And if you only want to replace some of the template blocks in this bundle, you can extend the base template using this namespace @!Block.

For example

{# templates/bundles/PixelBlockBundle/html5/parts/images.html.twig #}
{% extends "@!Block/html5/parts/images.html.twig" %}

{% block image_source %}{{ image.thumbnails['50x50'] }}{% endblock %}

3. Available blocks

• Rich text with a title (text)
• Images with a title (images)
• Images with a title and a rich text (image_text)
• Image, title with sub-title and quote (image_title_subtitle_quote)
• Youtube video (youtube)
• Link (link)
• Quote (quote)
• Before/After (image_before_after)
• Twi columns (two_columns)
• Three columns (three_columns)

4. Add properties

When you use a block and you want to add additional properties, you can configure them separately in config/templates/PixelSuluBlockBundle/properties/{blockname}.xml.

For instance, if you wish to add a caption to the images block, you will create the following fil in you customer application:

<!-- config/templates/PixelSuluBlockBundle/properties/images.xml -->
<?xml version='1.0' ?>
<properties xmlns='http://schemas.sulu.io/template/template'
    xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'
    xsi:schemaLocation='http://schemas.sulu.io/template/template http://schemas.sulu.io/template/template-1.0.xsd'
    >
    <property name='caption' type='text_line'>
        <meta>
            <title lang='en'>Caption</title>
        </meta>
    </property>
</properties>

5. Override properties parameters

5.1 Completely replace all parameters

When you use a block and you want to choose youself all the parameters to the blocks properties, you can configure them separately in config/templates/PixelSuluBlockBundle/params/{blockname}.xml. For example, if you want to define all the text editor property parameters, you will create the following file in you customer application:

<!-- config/templates/PixelSuluBlockBundle/params/text_editor.xml -->
<?xml version='1.0' ?>
<params xmlns='http://schemas.sulu.io/template/template'
    xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'
    xsi:schemaLocation='http://schemas.sulu.io/template/template http://schemas.sulu.io/template/template-1.0.xsd'
    >
    <param name="link" value="true"/>
    <param name="paste_from_word" value="true"/>
    <param name="height" value="100"/>
    <param name="max_height" value="200"/>
</params>

5.2 Adjust parameters

When you use a block and you wish to edit parameters to the blocks properties, you can configure them in config/templates/PixelSuluBlockBundle/params/{blockname}_adjustments.xml.

For instance, if you want to adjust the height and deactivate the tab feature of the text editor property, you will create the following file in your customer application:

<!-- config/templates/PixelSuluBlockBundle/params/text_editor_adjustments.xml -->
<?xml version='1.0' ?>
<params xmlns='http://schemas.sulu.io/template/template'
    xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'
    xsi:schemaLocation='http://schemas.sulu.io/template/template http://schemas.sulu.io/template/template-1.0.xsd'
    >
    <param name="height" value="200"/>
    <param name="table" value="false"/>
</params>

5.3 Add parameters

When you use a block and you want to add parameters to the blocks properties, you can separately configure them in config/templates/PixelSuluBlockBundle/params/{blockname}_additions.xml.

For instance, if you wish to add the ui_color parameter to the text_editor property, you will create the following file in your customer application:

<!-- config/templates/PixelSuluBlockBundle/params/text_editor_additions.xml -->
<?xml version='1.0' ?>
<params xmlns='http://schemas.sulu.io/template/template'
    xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'
    xsi:schemaLocation='http://schemas.sulu.io/template/template http://schemas.sulu.io/template/template-1.0.xsd'
    >
    <param name="ui_color" value="#ffcc00"/>
</params>
