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!
I set up a metafield with a boolean value and used it to control display of a portion of a page inside the tag {% if <metafield> %}. I set it up in my config file using true or false for the default values, and the page displays in Wagon as I would expect based on the value I set. But when I push the site to the engine, the value I set using the back office makes no difference in the display of the page. The portion of the page I'm trying to control displays regardless of the value. I'm wondering if I have a fundamental misunderstanding of something.

On a previous project and now a current one, we face the problem that wagon is killed during page load on wagon. ``` Agrano Alto Started GET "/events" at 2016-05-29 12:55:58 +0000 Params: {} Timezone: UTC Detecting locale DE Found page "Events" [events] Completed 200 OK in 249.3ms Killed ``` This usually happens, before images are loaded/done loading as it seems. On the engine it works totally fine. Is this a known issue/any hints on the causes?

When looping out out content of sub pages images turns out as Null running engine. When running locally with Wagon images from child pages is returned as expected. Other editable elements wok in both cases. {% for subpage in page.children %} <a href="{% path_to subpage %}"> <img src="{{subpage.editable_elements.content.main.main_image }}"/> <h2 style="font-size: 1em;">{{subpage.title}}</h2> </a> {% endfor %}

Hi, I would like to add search option to my site. I can't find any help in the doc v3. I'm trying to add somthing simple for the beginning like that: {% assign query_string = 'two' %} {% capture filter_query %}/{{ query_string }}/i{% endcapture %} {% with_scope title: filter_query %} {% assign posts = contents.posts.all %} {% endwith_scope %} I use regular expression but switch "i" doesn't work. MongoDB docs says that I can use switch "i" as a param. If I remove "i" switch I'll get some matching results - but with case sensitivity. I need to use "case insensitivity". My questions are: 1. Is it possible to use param "i" & "with_scope"? 2. Is it possible to add search code more user friendly like the Locomotive v2 has? Adam

Hi, the old locomotive hosting admin pages had a function to search for entries. I can't seem to find it in the locomotive works portal. We have about 700 events on the site, and it's borderline unusable without it. Please halp! Thanks! Vlad

So I have an events content_type and an `event` , `has_many` => `open_subscriptions`, so people can go to a page, select an `event`, fill in their info and subscribe to the `event` via the `open_subscriptions`. You can see my form here http://engine.whale-agency.com/locomotive/okarnhem/preview/open-subscriptions/create_application the problem I have is that it creates the open_subscription entry but it doesn't create the relationship to the event and I can imagine it is because of the form and how I am doing the select. Here is a gist with the code of my page with the form. https://gist.github.com/DonKoko/28bc5cc36b2a381c2860b0ee3ecd4841

My client has an iframe embedded in their site from a service called mycompass.com that references the stylesheet from the client's main (locomotive.works hosted) site to style the iframe content. We've sent them the link to the staging URL without the version number extension so our edits to the css aren't showing up. Is there a way to make our edits show up? We don't have access to the iframe source and can't update the css URL there to have the correct version number. Thanks!

I'm getting the following error when trying to clone our site. ``` undefined method `force_encoding' for {"de"=>"false"}:Hash ``` Seems to be a locale issue. German is the only language used on the site. Top line of backtrace: ``` /home/vagrant/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.2.3/gems/locomotivecms_wagon-2.1.1/lib/locomotive/wagon/commands/pull_sub_commands/concerns/assets_concern.rb:19:in `replace_asset_urls' ``` Any idea on how to fix this?

After pushing to our site (on locomotive.works) with the data option, suddenly images which have appeared correctly, are not appearing correctly anymore. The changes pushed only affected content types, not the pages showing the faulty behavior. In contrast to working image links, the links of the missing images don't contain any file endings (.png, .jpg or similar), have this weird ´´_old_´´ param on the path and include some query strings: ´´´ .../sites/5720d0ca1a3dcd1/pages/5720d807a2f4220ca1a3dcd3/files/_old_?1463132645&editable-path=main--landingpage_coins--coin_left_image ´´´ The images are captured as follows: ´´´ {% capture coin_topright_url %}{% editable_file "coin_topright_image", hint: "Upload a coin image for the top right coin." %}{% endeditable_file %}{% endcapture %} ´´´ Any idea about what causes this issue and how to fix this?

I've been running into the "can't be blank" issue for relationships when pushing data to the engine a lot lately. This happens for relationships with _required:true_. So am I right in the assumption, that required relationships still haven't been implemented? Or how would I make them work?

I'm quite new to using Locomotive and so far it is great. But now that I'm considering adding some basic logic to my app like I would do normally with a Rails controller, things start to get confusing. Am I supposed to directly modify the engine for that purpose ? If so I think it's really not ideal... For example, I want to add a contact form, I've seen there is a tutorial on this in the docs but it doesn't say anything about the POST side of it. I want to send an email when a message is sent through the contact form and I really have no idea how I should do this with Locomotive. Also I'd like to use Locomotive for a future project that will require a lot of custom logic and I'm afraid it won't fit. I hoped to use a Rails CMS so that I can develop easily with Rails and at the same time have a nice CMS. Is this realistic with Locomotive ?

I have known that specific resources such as pages can be pushed to remote, but what can I do if I just wanna push the pages only changed on local not all the pages? Does it exist a design or implementation consideration for wagon that only supports push the specific types of resource?

Hi there, I've spent a tremendous amount of time trying to solve this: Before I upgraded to v3 I've been adding images as editable_files with a default value as mentioned in http://doc.locomotivecms.com/references/api/tags/editable-file Now, after the upgrade, everything works fine on wagon, but not on the engine (e.g. locomotive.works). I've tried every possible combination of capture and editable_file I could think of and keep missing my default value (which is not something I want to give up!). Old version: > {% capture coin_topright_url %}{% editable_file "coin_topright_image", hint: "Upload a coin image for the top right coin." %}{% endeditable_file %}{% endcapture %} with > src=" {% if coin_topright_url != '' %}{{ coin_topright_url }}{% else %}{{ 'coins/student.png' | theme_image_url }}{% endif %}" Things I've tried (among many others): > src="{{ coin_topright_url | default: '/coins/student.png' | theme_image_url }}" > {% capture coin_topright_ur %}{{ coin_topright_ur | strip_html }}{% endcapture %} > > src="{{ page.editable_elements.main.landingpage_coins.coin_right_image }}" > src="{% if page.editable_elements.main.landingpage_coins.coin_right_image != '' %}{{ page.editable_elements.main.landingpage_coins.coin_right_image }}{% else %}{{ 'coins/investor.png' | theme_image_url }}{% endif %}"
