#11530 confirmed New Feature

Dynamic Templates with Dialog Helpers

Description

I would vote to extend templates and make them dynamic through the usage of popup dialog helper. The dialog would:

  • contain user-configurable form
  • go through validation & error display
  • implement ui dependencies
  • return html from a function, given formState hash.

This would allow a web site builder to provide client with smart templates that would react to web editor input.

Enclosed please find a very rudimentary example of what it would do. Validation and error handling aspects are not polished at this moment - subject to further development upon feature approval.

This would be an interesting feature, although its not currently possible in such simple form because of dialogs. Template definition would have to contain a full dialog definition what makes this whole concept to heavy, because it's easier to create a new plugin which opens dialog and does the same. However, in the future it may be possible if the dialog system will be simplified.

Widgets would seem a good fit for this. Currently we are using widgets to manage responsive layouts the downside is that we cannot use any widgets within layout widgets.
