Reformatting the Saints

The "Saints by Date" page has been completely reformatted, using Foundation's Accordion as the main layout scheme and block-grid for each month.  It's WAY less template code and actually works on a small screen, rather then just pretending.  Currently there are still issues with the boxes around each day in the medium and large views, but that's on the short list to be fixed.

A personal code-victory, the entire layout was changed, and not a single line of code had to be touched.  I had sucessfully kept all the layout in the template and only had to touch that!

Foundation for all

The work of converting the site to use foundation as layout library is complete.  JQueryUI has been removed, everything is now formatted with Foundation and all popups are controlled by it.  We are still using manualy HTML tables for a lot of formatting, but at least we're consistant in appearence.  One caveat, due to the removal of support for AJAX Modal pop-ups in Foundation 6, we're currently running in 5.5.

Note that jQuery is still part of the application for loading remote content, it's only the UI layer that has been replaced

Saints and Colors

  • Minor data-model change, there is now a seperate column for the color of the secondary saint.  Typ 213, the current Book has way too many color differences between primary and secondary.  I don't have a full plan to refactor the old data, but it'll happen.  loader.pl still needs a tweak to understand the new fields
  • Saints class is making good progress and can output a basic table of all saints.  No links yet, but that shouldn't be too hard.  Doing the bulk loading required a new constructor for the saint class, now it can EITHER take a id and load from the DB, or pre-loaded values and store them
  • IMPORTANT - New saints table uses Foundation as the js/css formatting library, looks like that is going to win out over bootstrap and JQueryUI.  I'll refactor the modal saint in the compare screen and then set to formatting everything
