Option to choose one post connector for a post and another one that childs will inherit

Open bonny opened this issue 12 years ago • 0 comments

Why

If you don't want your users to have to select a specific connector, you select a default post connector for that post type, or you select that is should inherit connector from the parent post.

But what if you want all child pages to have a different post connector from the parent, but don't want users to have to select one each time they create a post.

Example 1: you have a page called "Coworkers" and then subpages with the actual coworkers. Each coworker have a title, an image, an email address, and a presentation. None of those fields you want to have on the page coworkers. But you must have a post connector set on the coworker parent page for each sub page to have a default connector.

Example 2: [insert example 2 here!]

That's what this fixes.

Works like this

  • Post connector gets a new option: post connector for child pages
  • Used when child is set to use inherited post connector
  • Child post with inherited post connector then use another connector

Questions

  • What happens if the connector that gets selected also has a child connector? What's valid then?
