How to customize the form of SonataAdminBundle - symfony

For example I would like to do this.
A. Show map instead of latitude and altitude property.
B. Show thumbnails of pictures instead of select box for pictures.
I can do this kind of things for list screen like this below.
public function configureListFields(ListMapper $listMapper)
{
$listMapper
->addIdentifier('id')
->add('map',null,array('template' => 'AcmeAdminBundle:MyTemplate:list_map.html.twig',
'property_path' => false
))
After overriding the template and then it is possible to show the map or do some complex things in my original list_map.html.twig
Now I want to try the same thing with Form though,'FormMapper' doesn't have 'template' option.
So, I override the form_admin_fields.html.twig and edit someplaces but it doesn't change the each objects of form.
Even I delete all of code in form_admin_fields.html.twig. (makes the blank file)
It just changes the layout of form.
I would like to customize each text box or select box of form.
Where should I start to customize form page in SonataAdminBundle??

Try to create custom field type for this, like here

How can I add a paragraph (as default) in the node form by using hook_form_alter in Drupal 8?

I am trying to add a bunch of different empty paragraphs of different types, to a entity reference revisions field, everytime a node of a certain content type is created.
I DON'T want to use the contrib module "default paragraphs" for this, because I need to use a certain form widget here, and default paragraphs is also achieved by a widget.
What I tried so far:
function myModule_form_alter(&$form, \Drupal\Core\Form\FormStateInterface $form_state, $form_id){
$paragraph = \Drupal\paragraphs\Entity\Paragraph::create([
'type' => 'tab_features'
]);
$paragraph->save();
$form['field_tabs']['widget'][0]['target_id']=$paragraph->id();
$form['field_tabs']['widget'][0]['target_revision_id']=$paragraph->getRevisionId();
return $form;
}
$field_tabs is my entity reference revisions field.
'tab_features' is the paragraphs type I want to add.
I guess there should be a method that can be used in the form or form widget to add a paragraph to the form, like someone already clicked the button to add it. I want to avoid to actually trigger this via Javascript if possible. Anybody knows how to do this in form_alter?
In a project I'm working on, we have done something like this:
//get the body field
$field = $entity->get('field_em_p_body');
$paragraph = Paragraph::create([
'type' => 'em_section', // Paragraph type.
]);
$paragraph->isNew();
$paragraph->set('YOUR_FIELD', 'SOMETHING');
$field->appendItem($paragraph);

Symfony2 personnalisation every attr radio buttons

I can not find the opportunity to customize the attributes on radio buttons separately, because I want to insert a title tag and data-toggle="tooltip" to display a tooltip on every radio buttons
$builder
->add('type', 'choice', array(
'choices' => array(
'0' => 'Demande', // Here personnalise attr
'1' => 'Recherche', // Here personnalise attr
),
'expanded' => true,
))
I tried with the attr option, but it puts on all the radio buttons ... Or should that EVERY radio button is a different attr.
Thank you !
The expanded choice list in Symfony is actually a form with children of either type radio or type checkbox (depending on the multiple option being false or true respectively).
In my opinion, the best way to solve this, is create a custom type, and do your own templating of the type. This usually is the most clear to the fellow developer and is consistent (and much easier than you might think).
The type should look like this:
class MyType extends AbstractType()
{
public function getName()
{
return 'tooltip_choice';
}
public function getParent()
{
return 'choice';
}
}
Add this class to your service definitions and tag it as a form type (see docs on this).
Now, the form templating layer will search for a block named tooltip_choice_row (for the row of the element), tooltip_choice_widget for the widget of the element. If you inspect the default form templates, you can easily dissect how the choice list rendering works in the default implementation. You can either copy and paste it to your custom form theming and override.
The downside of this solution is that it costs a little bit more code, but you can much easier extend your types to include the tooltip itself, and pass that as an option to your form type as well.
Another solution would be to override the radio_widget and the checkbox_widget blocks in your form template, and check if the parent is a choice block. You can find out what exact variables you need by dumping the _context variable in your template, it shows exactly what values are available for you to check on.

Sonata Admin Change Edit link by Show link

I'm using SonataAdminBundle and I'm triying to change the edit link of and entity by the show link.
I want to do this because I need the entity couldn't be modified but I want you can show the entity by clicking in the Identifier field of the list page.
I need to show the entity by clicking in the Identifier, and not using the show action buttom.
So I tried in the ClassAdmin:
protected function configureRoutes(RouteCollection $collection){
$collection->add('edit', $this->getRouterIdParameter().'/show');
}
Despite the url is generated with the show correctly, the Identifier in the list page redirect to the edit page. Really, wathever I change in the edit link doesn't take efect and always redirect to the edit page.
Thansk a lot!
You can give the default action like this (in your admin classes):
protected function configureListFields(ListMapper $listMapper)
{
$listMapper
->addIdentifier('id', null, ['route' => ['name' => 'show']])
;
}
Finally, it works by:
protected function configureRoutes(RouteCollection $collection){
$collection->remove('edit');
$collection->add('edit', $this->getRouterIdParameter().'/show');
}
I don't know why I have to remove the edit link first... but it works.

change drupal comment

I want to put the comment textarea which is used to enter the comment text above the three fields (name, email, homepage). The final result should be as shown below:
the comment text area
name: email: homepage: submitcomment
how I position the fields like this? Thank you.
the version is drupal 6.20. i mean the form to create a comment.
To modify the comment form the way you want to you're probably going to want to use a hook_form_alter() to modify the formfield weights. You can theme it with by providing a preprocess function (see: http://systemseed.com/blog/how-customise-comment-form-drupal-6) but to rearrange the formfield weights I think you'll need to use hook_form_alter() in a little custom module.
Something like this:
in MY_MODULE.module
/**
* Implementation of hook_form_alter().
*/
function MY_MODULE_form_alter(&$form, &$form_state, $form_id){
if ($form_id == 'comment_form'){
$form['comment_filter']['#weight'] => -10
);
}
}
Other than that you could resort to something simpler with jQuery to just rearrange divs on page load

Drupal Views exposed filter of Author name as a drop down

This is a follow up question to Drupal Views exposed filter of Author name. The following question was answered and works. I can filter a view by user name. The user name is entered is entered by typing in a box and the box then auto completes. Rather then doing this I would like the list of users as a drop down. I only need one user to be selected. Do you know if this is possible?
You'll need a custom module for that.
I've done this for Drupal 7 this way: create a module, say, views_more_filters, so you have a views_more_filters.info file like this:
name = Views More Filters
description = Additional filters for Views.
core = 7.x
files[] = views_more_filters_handler_filter_author_select.inc
files[] = views_more_filters.views.inc
(file views_more_filters_handler_filter_author_select.inc will contain our filter handler).
A basic views_more_filters.module file:
<?php
/**
* Implements of hook_views_api().
*/
function views_more_filters_views_api() {
return array('api' => 3);
}
Then define your filter in views_more_filters.views.inc:
<?php
/**
* Implements of hook_views_data().
*/
function views_more_filters_views_data() {
return array(
'node' => array(
'author_select' => array(
'group' => t('Content'),
'title' => t('Author UID (select list)'),
'help' => t('Filter by author, choosing from dropdown list.'),
'filter' => array('handler' => 'views_more_filters_handler_filter_author_select'),
'real field' => 'uid',
)
)
);
}
Note that we set author_select as a machine name of the filter, defined filter handler ('handler' => 'views_more_filters_handler_filter_author_select') and a field we will filter by ('real field' => 'uid').
Now we need to implement our filter handler. As our filter functions just like default views_handler_filter_in_operator, we simply extend its class in views_more_filters_handler_filter_author_select.inc file:
<?php
/**
* My custom filter handler
*/
class views_more_filters_handler_filter_author_select extends views_handler_filter_in_operator {
/**
* Override parent get_value_options() function.
*
* #return
* Return the stored values in $this->value_options if someone expects it.
*/
function get_value_options() {
$users_list = entity_load('user');
foreach ($users_list as $user) {
$users[$user->uid] = $user->name;
}
// We don't need Guest user here, so remove it.
unset($users[0]);
// Sort by username.
natsort($users);
$this->value_options = $users;
return $users;
}
}
We haven't had to do much here: just populate options array with a list of our users, the rest is handled by parent class.

Tutorial: Creating Custom Filters in Views
Yes, this is possible. Its not particularly tough to do this... but its slightly tedious. You need to create two views
The first view is a list of users on your system (a View of type Users). This user list is displayed as a dropdown instead of a list (using jump menu view style). Clicking on any user within this dropdown will call the second view with the uid (user id) of the selected user as the argument in the URL. This view is a block.
The second view is a simple Node listing. It is a page view at a particular URL. It takes 1 argument which is the uid (user id) of the user.
Detailed Steps
Download the Ctools module
http://drupal.org/project/ctools
Enable the Chaos Tools Module. This
module provides a Views Style Plugin
called "Jump Menu"
Create a new view of type Users and NOT type Node which you usually
create. In the fields add User:
Name and User: uid. For the
settings of User: uid, make sure
you click on Rewrite the output of
the field. The rewritten output of
the field should be
my_node_list/[uid]. Make sure you
select the exclude from display checkbox.
In the settings for Style in the view, select the Jump Menu style. Click on the settings for the style. Make sure the Path dropdown has User: uid choosen
Add a block display to the view. Name the block User Drop Down
Save the view
Add the block User Drop Down to any region in your theme e.g. Content Top (usually the best) or left sidebar. Make sure the block is only visible at the urls my_node_list/* and my_node_list by setting the block visibility settings
Now create another view of type Node. Add an argument field User: uid. Add the fields you are interested in e.g. Node: title, User: Name etc.
Add a page display. Let the page be at the url my_node_list
Save the view. Test the dropdown with its list of users on the system at http://yoursitename/my_node_list

Check this one
I think you just have to choose "Taxonomy:term The taxonomy term ID" instead of "name".
