Configuration

config/menu.json

That's where the menu can get modified.

They are four types of menu item (internal|external|folder|separator).

  • internal Can be any page of the application (home|category|tag|parameters)
  • external Any www website
  • folder Create a menu sublevel (you can add up to six levels)
  • separator Separate menu items

NB: The icons must be from ionicons.com

config/config.scss

This file allow you to overwrite Sass variables.

The colors variables are the following:

$palette-primary-dark: #455a64 !default;
$palette-primary-color: #607d8b !default;
$palette-primary-light: #cfd8dc !default;
$palette-primary-icon: #fff !default;
$palette-primary-text: #212121 !default;
$palette-primary-background: white !default;
$palette-accent-color: #009688 !default;
$palette-secondary-text: #727272 !default;
$palette-divider-color: #eaeaea !default;

You can also overwrite Ionic variables: http://ionicframework.jp/tutorials/customizing-ionic-with-sass/

To know all WPHC internal variables checkout lib/scss/_variables.scss

config/templates

You can now create your own custom posts/taxonomies templates or overwrite any template of the app by registering them in the config/templates/index.js file.

Create custom posts templates

Custom posts need custom templates because WPHC cannot know in advance the properties of the returned object.

After installation you will find a config/templates folder. This is your own folder, you can modify it in any way you want.

In that folder you will find an example of custom templates for the custom post type movie.

the movie folder contains list.html (list all movies) and item.html (particular movie).

Register your own templates

In index.js you will find the following line of code:

$templateCache.put('customPosts/movie/item.html', require('!html!./customPosts/movie/item.html'));
$templateCache.put('customPosts/movie/list.html', require('!html!./customPosts/movie/list.html'));

What it does is to register custom templates following the naming convention customPosts/<customPostType>/item.html for items and customPosts/<customPostType>/list.html for lists.

The require('!html!./customPosts/movie/item.html') part is just the path to your custom templates in your filesystem.

If you want to add a new custom post type, for instance countries, you will end up adding those two lines:

$templateCache.put('customPosts/countries/item.html', require('!html!<pathToTheItemTemplate>'));
$templateCache.put('customPosts/countries/list.html', require('!html!<pathToTheListTemplate>'));

Now navigating to #/public/customPosts/countries will list all the countries the WP-API returns and #/public/customPosts/countries/<id> will display one particular country.

Overwriting existing templates

If you want to modify an existing template since v2 it is possible.

WPHC templates are all located in lib/templates. These should not be touched. If you want to overwrite one just copy it and past it into your personal config/templates folder.

For instance if you want to modify the way the menu is displayed, you will need to copy lib/templates/directive/menu.html and past it wherever you want in config/templates folder.

After that you will need to register your new template in lib/templates/index.js (read the comments for help)

Frequently asked questions

How to change the font

wordpress-clients#238

How to have different style per page

For instance you want a specific color on a category header. This is possible through config/config.scss file.

Every page you visit has a unique class name injected in the <html> tag. Everything nested on html.module-posts rule is therefore applied only on this page:

html.module-posts{
    ion-header-bar{
        background-color: red !important;
    }
}

html.module-pages{
    ion-header-bar{
        background-color: green !important;
    }   
}

How to change the home page

The home page is by default the posts page. This can be changed in the config/config.cson file.

Add the following and change state and params to the page you want:

# MENU (Default)
"menu":
    "defaultState":
        "state": "public.posts"
        "params": {}

Set the home page to the pages page:

# MENU
"menu":
    "defaultState":
        "state": "public.pages"
        "params": {}

Set the home page to a specific custom page:

# MENU
"menu":
    "defaultState":
        "state": "public.customPosts"
        "params": {"slug": "movie"}

Consult the config/menu.json to know about the different pages state and params.

config/config.cson

The default values live under config/config.default.cson (file that you should not modify), if you wish to overwrite something from it, just copy it into your personal config/config.cson file with the same indentation.
