The Comfortable Mexican Loveseat is an expansion pack to the Comfortable Mexican Sofa. It currently contains minor modifications to the snippet.rb
and base_controller.rb
files, improved sitemap functionality, and SEO-enhancing modifications.
The Loveseat references a fixed version of the CMS (currently 1.12.8) and latest releases are pulled in occasionally.
The Loveseat is currently installed through the foxinator-generator
NOTE: When you are adding new models and/or controllers and links are not showing up, do not forget to click the “Sync” button!¶ ↑

When you want to import fixtures you can now use the following commands:
rake cms:import # imports from all folders and automatically creates matching sites if they don't exist rake cms:import FROM=somewhere # automatically imports to somewhere rake cms:import FROM=somewhere TO=something LOCALE=de #lets you set the locale for the site rake cms:export rake cms:export FROM=somewhere rake cms:export FROM=somewhere TO=something LOCALE=de
To export a zipped folder of all fixtures (useful for syncing fixtures from different servers) you can run:
rake cms:zip
To get this working on cloud66, add these files to your .cloud66 folder:
# save this as deploy_hooks.yml staging: after_rails: - source: /.cloud66/permissions.sh destination: /tmp/permissions.sh target: rails execute: true sudo: true production: after_rails: - source: /.cloud66/permissions.sh destination: /tmp/permissions.sh target: rails execute: true sudo: true # save this file as permissions.sh chown nginx:app_writers $STACK_PATH/public chmod 0775 -R $STACK_PATH/public # change the group of the public folder from nginx to app_writers sudo chown :app_writers public #change the permissions on the folder to 775 sudo chmod 775 public
Building on the Sofa’s sitemap functionality, the Loveseat lets you add Rails model show pages and custom routes to the sitemap.
To use it, please copy and customize the demo initializer located in templates/comfortable_mexican_loveseat.rb
and in your routes.rb
file make sure you have this line:
comfy_route :cms, :path => '/', :sitemap => true
Then replace your robots.txt
file with the one in the templates folder.
By default when using the Loveseat, all trailing slash URLs (‘myapp.com/example/’) are redirected to a non-trailing slash URL.
By default when you create an application, it comes with meta description; page title; index; canonical link; and Social Media (Google+, Facebook, and Twitter) fields that can be filled in on a per-page basis. To display these tags, add this to your application.html.erb
:
<title><%= comfy_page_title %></title> <%= comfy_seo_tags %>
Tags are set on a per-page basis, except for canonical links, which default to the page URL if none has been entered manually.
The Loveseat provides some helpful hints to admins when they’re uploading images (choose an SEO-friendly name, add an alt-tag), which you can add to your locale files.

There is a more styled version of the CMS login page in the templates/devise folder.

01/12/2016 - Updated cms_block_content() to be faster. You can still use the old code (which can have slightly different functionality) by passing in an overwrite flag. See the
cms_helper.rb
for source code. Improved the speed with which SEO tags get loaded in the header.
