Welcome to the Locomotive V4 developer hub. You'll find comprehensive guides and documentation to help you start working with Locomotive V4 as quickly as possible, as well as support if you get stuck. Let's jump right in!
What is the full list of options for "wagon sync -r" command? "Only pull the resource(s) passed (pages, content_entries, translations) in argument" is not all, there is also site i.e. but is there also an option to sync ContentAssets i.e.? Thanks

Helle Support, every time we try to clone or backup our site from server to local we get "Pulling ContentAssets # Error description: undefined method `<' for nil:NilClass" and the pull is stopped. All pulling before are fine, "Pulling Site Pulling Pages Pulling ContentTypes Pulling ContentEntries Pulling Snippets Pulling ThemeAssets Pulling Translations" but the ContentAssets crash. What can we do to clean up the server so we get a working clone? Thanks

I've got a content block defined as markdown, and it's working fine on the production server, but when viewing locally it's not converting the markdown: ``` --- title: Home page slug: index position: 0 listed: true published: true is_layout: false editable_elements: content/content: "# Content of the home page goes here\r\n\r\nThis is a **para**\r\n\r\nThen what happens?\r\n\r\n- something \r\n- something else" --- {% extends 'layouts/default' %} {% block content %} {% editable_text content, format:'markdown' %} # Content of the home page goes here This is a para {% endeditable_text %} {% endblock content %} ``` Neither the default content or the editable elements bit shows up as HTML, but does on the live site.

When I create an editable text block, the HTML id's and classes are missing from the CMS' WYSIWYG editor if you click on the "<>" code button. That means you lose those from the markup the minute you make a change and save it. It looks like Locomotive is using wysihtml5. Is there somewhere we can change the config for the parser rules for this?

Hi, we migrate from V2 to V3 and correct the names for editable elements to underscore in one of our websites. But we encountered a huge problem, that just opening a page clears the values of the editable elements. So the page/content is broken. Is that a known problem? Best regards Steffen Marschall

I'd like to have the content_type creator's name pull straight from the member that created it. Right now, I'm having to create an Author content_type and associate it, but that doesn't seem to be the most efficient way to achieve this. I'm not currently seeing a way to do that in the docs or discussion forum. Am I overlooking something simple?

Hello, I am completely new to Ruby and RoR, and ofcourse LocomotiveCMS. Fortunately, I have managed to follow the instruction at [https://locomotive-v3.readme.io/docs/getting-started-with-locomotive](https://locomotive-v3.readme.io/docs/getting-started-with-locomotive) until `bundle exec rails server`, eventhough I have to install `node.js` and `puma` before that, which are the missing requirements from the docs. I did it directly on my VPS. So my question are: 1. how to change the IP/URL (and the port) so that I can change localhost with my IP/URL? 2. What to do after `bundle exec rails server` and register to my site as user? I am not sure what to do to follow section `Pushing a site template with Wagon` at [https://locomotive-v3.readme.io/docs/getting-started-with-locomotive](https://locomotive-v3.readme.io/docs/getting-started-with-locomotive). Thanks!

The dashboard on Locomotive helpfully lists recent edits to models in the system. Is there a way to choose which models show up there? In my case I have one model which is frequently edited by an automated process, and it's making the dashboard very noisy.

Hello! I really like locomotive and try to push this cms in our company. But my CTO ask who actually uses locomotive. The only one place I found your site - this is several static images with company logos. But i need if possible links to sites developed with CMS, and I could't find them (( Ask for help ))

We just launched a site using Locomotive Hosting, and we are receiving a ssl mismatch. The server is serving a ssl cert of "locomotive.works" which obviously is not our domain. I looked all over the documentation and found nothing on ssl certs, or anything in the back office where I could configure or upload a valid SSL cert. How do we get our cert onto the locomotive hosting server?

What's the best way to create a page nav in a layout to show only the child pages of which ever page the layout is applied to? Have tried the following and it doesn't work. {% nav page.slug %} {% nav 'page.slug' %} {% assign nav_name = page.slug %} {% nav nav_name %} When trying the actual page slug as a string, it works as desired.

I'm looking to use gzip compression on my files, but I can't find any information on if it's supported with wagon/locomotive. I found this by googling the question, but i don't see any conclusion on whether it's been included or how to use it. https://github.com/locomotivecms/engine/issues/886

Hi there, We upgraded wagon to the latest version and moved our hosting to station.locomotive.works. I'm seeing a greatly reduced feature set on the admin interface, has the ability to edit liquid templates and create models been removed? We used this functionality quite extensively (even though we also use wagon for development). Just wondering what the suggested workflow modifications are for a reduced feature set in the new admin interface. Another thing I can't find is how / where to search through a set of resources. In the old version I could search through our models, I can't see how to do this in the new version. Cheers, Damien

Hello, I had a site wiped out, but I still have the data as a mongodump, I have been trying to create an updated site with v3 but have been having a hard time getting the data to reintegrate correctly. I am able to get the site running on 2.54 again in development with the correct data in the rails app (image linking back to s3 might be another challenge), but I am having trouble moving the data to the new version. it seems to be there, but just returns a page not found error for pages and content in the backend. 1. Is this even possible? (i would like to use the new features) 2. how complicated would this process become due to data changes between the versions. Sorry if I missed info about this anywhere. Thank you, Robert
