What you're saying is what a CMS (Content Management System) is for, and it seems that your website is just a simple website.
There's plenty of CMS options out there, since Wordpress (PHP) to the Umbraco (.NET) - plenty more on Google - and you need to shape your website into one of them, or, if you want to have the work... you need to develop your own system... add those textboxes and image selectors, save the choices to a database, and show the text and images from those saved choices...
best option is actually set up an empty CMS and replicate what you currently have, it's easier and you will get all from the start.

I am searching for django CMS that allows me to create something like custom pages build from predefined components.
Every page should be builded from custom "inpage" components like:
carousel with images
gallery with images
richtext field
plain text field
So as a developer I will build a template for every page of a website from this components and assing a CSS file for the given page. For example one page can look like:
plain text field (heading)
plain text field (some kind of page abstract)
richtext field (part of the text)
gallery with images (few specified images with some style)
richtext field (another part of the text)
Another page could be build in a different way. The key idea is, that every page will have predefined unique layout (template) that is not breakable by users in CMS.
The CMS I would like to use, should allow the user to change content of the particular componets for particular page. So the CMS should create form to change the content of the particular components for a given page (heading, text, images in carousel).
The changable content of the page (form fields) can be stored in database of files, it does not really matter.
The main idea behind this concept is to prevent user from changing the layout provided by designer and enforce the correct styles and correct "content type" for every part of every page.
Note: I used a Mezzanine for last few years and it seems to me easier to code the proposed CMS from scratch rather than use the Mezzanine somehow in this way.
My questions:
does something like exist?
has this type of CMS a common name?
Sorry for being too broad, but I do not really how I can search such a thing (in case it already exists - or at least something similar). Any hint, comment or advice will be more than welcome.
your question is too broad but to answer it quickly:
I don't know that anything like this exactly already exists
There's no common name for this as far as I know.
You're asking two things - one, you want to create a website and give each user some control over the content they create (I suppose you're creating some blogging system or something). second, you want to use a CMS.
The problem with that, I think, is these two things are inherently unrelated. It feels like it's similar - you manage your content with the CMS, just like your users manage their content, but it's actually completely different. One is a tool for developers to quickly build a website, the other is a limited set of tools within an existing website that's exposed to the user. You will never want to expose any part of the CMS to your users, you'll want to have control over that, so it really doesn't matter if you use a CMS or not.
in short - sure, you can use any CMS to build your website, and you can build it from scratch. I'd prefer the latter cause I like building stuff from scratch, but it's really irrelevant to what you're trying to build.
I'm building a website using the ACF plugin (Version 5 Pro), and I'm setting up a button on a page template, which by itself isn't the problem. The problem is that depending on the specific content of each individual page using that template, the button can have one of several different appearances. What I'm trying to do is set things up so that I can upload all the buttons into the default value section of the ACF field ahead of time, and then every time I make a new page using that template, simply select the appropriate button from a radio button, a dropdown menu, or something similar on the backend of the page. I plan to be constantly uploading small amounts of content using this template, so not having to manually select the appropriate images on each page would save me a lot of time.
I've googled around and there wasn't a good answer I could find anywhere, so I'm hoping one of you more knowledgeable folks could help me out!
(And before anyone proposes this as a solution, no, the content of each page isn't something I can define just using programming. It's a little more abstract and needs human input. If all else fails I can just make multiple templates and simply select the appropriate one when I go to make a page, but the way I'm trying to do it now would be a lot cleaner).
You can try ACF Flexible Content:
https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/add-ons/flexible-content-field/
Using Flexible Content field, you will be able to create multiple fields (button 1, button 2, etc) including a WYSIWYG editor and build the buttons HTML adding the default value of the field.
You can read:
https://support.advancedcustomfields.com/forums/topic/html-default-values/
However, I think you'll get in trouble making your buttons dynamic with this approach... so I'd suggest it will be better if you keep some parts of the buttons (like URLs) dynamic, using an extra field to enter the URL, anchor, etc.
I want to build a website in which users can add information, like craigslist. I want the website user to be able to click a button fill out a form and add another box. For instance, if there is a three by three grid and the user clicks on the add button, I want a form to appear, them to fill it out and one more box to be permanently added to the grid. Of course I could make it happen with Javascript and JQuery but it isn't permanent. Thanks:)
You can Implement this using server side languages like PHP /Node JS, ASP.net, Java, Ruby or you can use Local Storage of the browser (this gives limited storage capacity ). read this for more details. link
If you don't already know PHP, you will need to learn it for this. Also, you will need to make sure that you understand how to validate input because letting users add to your database can be a very dangerous thing to do if you don't understand how things like script injection works.
I've been trying to customize the survey that is received from Qualtrics so that I may display it the way I want. The Creatives don't give enough customization to do that, so I've been thinking that I may be able to serve the survey using a Custom HTML Creative, extract what's inside and serving it on my own container.
Does anyone have any experience with this? Is there anything that I should look out for, or a better way to do things?
To be more clear on what I am trying to do: I am currently getting the survey using a Custom HTML creative and site intercept. The survey lands on a div tag that I need to modify so that the entire survey is displayed instead of a scrollable section.
Hi im trying to build a mediawiki extension which requires AJAX calls during editing a page. All I need is to add a new edit button on the edit page which displays a javascript popup editor which in turn makes the appropriate calls.
I need to know if it is feasible in Mediawiki, to inject javascrpt code into edit buttons.
Any kind of information or leads are welcome!
Ok clearly the question is very specific, tht no one cared to answer. so if some one else wants to know how to add custom edit buttons in Mediawiki, this is how I did it
I found a Mediawiki help page which asks the user to edit a particular javascript page located at http://(wiki-site-url)/Mediawiki:Comomn.js .
On closer inspection this is not an actual js page but a normal wikipage(stored in the database as wikitext) which is loaded by mediawiki during runtime. The site admin can edit this page by adding
if (mwCustomEditButtons) {
mwCustomEditButtons[mwCustomEditButtons.length] = {
"imageFile": "<path-to-image-on-the-server>",
"speedTip": "Comment visible only for editors",
"tagOpen": "open tag",
"tagClose": "closing tag",
"sampleText": "Insert comment here"}
}
This can also be achieved for a single user by applying the same edit on the users own copy of the js file available at http://(wiki-site-url/User:(Your_username)/(skinname).js
Both the js pages could be created if they dont already exist.
The wiki way is to put an HTML button into a Widget and put your JavaScript there, or better yet in its own Gadget
