Backdating a wagtail page - wagtail

I'm trying to repost content posted to a third party website to our own Wagtail instance, and to prevent this content from showing up as "new content", need to backdate each post. However, there does not appear to be anything in the Wagtail UI that allows for this: is this something that needs to be done either programmatically via Python, or through manual DB queries that update the wagtail_pages table?

You need to alter the first_published_at field to your Page editing interface.
You could add it to your settings_panels for your custom Page model:
class Example(Page):
...
settings_panels = Page.settings_panels + [
FieldPanel('first_published_at')
]
...
In these cases it's quite useful to look at the original Wagtail Page model, you can see that the first_published_at field is available, and editable so there's nothing stopping you from adding it to the editing interface:

Is there a way to show images in a Wagtail Model Admin Record Listing page?

I have reviewed the question on Is there any way to show a field on a listing page in Wagtail admin? but my situation seems to similar but also different enough that that particular solution won't work for me. Instead of on the Page listing I wish to achieve a similar thing on the Model Admin listing and I would think this should be such a common requirement that I am picking that someone must have done this before I have attempted it.
I haven't really figured out how to even try anything to get started but what I have looked at is the modeladmin template tags under wagtail.contrib.modeladmin on GitHub but I am completely guessing.
Can anyone point me to which templates I need to modify and whether I need to modify any of the template tags and how to override anything I need to override?
There's no need to override templates for this - this is standard functionality in ModelAdmin. Adding extra fields to the listing is done by setting list_display on the ModelAdmin class:
class BookAdmin(ModelAdmin):
model = Book
list_display = ('title', 'author')
For displaying images, ModelAdmin provides ThumbnailMixin:
from wagtail.contrib.modeladmin.mixins import ThumbnailMixin
from wagtail.contrib.modeladmin.options import ModelAdmin
class BookAdmin(ThumbnailMixin, ModelAdmin):
model = Book
thumb_image_field_name = 'cover_image'
list_display = ('title', 'author', 'admin_thumb')
('admin_thumb' is a special-purpose field name provided by ThumbnailMixin, and should be used rather than the actual image field on your model - cover_image in this example.)

How can the category and product fields in Shopizer be customized, if possible at all?

I am currently using Shopizer as a sort of headless CMS, leveraging its out of the box admin pages and REST API for the content. There is a page for editing products in the admin system but I would like to add and/or remove specific fields. Making changes to the base code seems to be the most obvious solution but it is taking me a significant amount of time to implement it successfully.
Is there some sort of a config file or an initialization process to customize the fields for creating categories and products using Shopizer's admin page? What is the best practice for this scenario if the former approach is not possible?
If you need to add fields the easiest way is to add them in model objects
com.salesmanager.core.model.*
Example of an annotated field
#Column (name ="IP_ADDRESS")
private String ipAddress;
Once you restart your instance the new field will be available.

wagtail modeladmin: is it possible to add "explore child pages" column?

I've been using wagtail-modeladmin to create custom lists of certain page types. That gives me the ability to edit those pages. But I'd also like to be able to click through somehow to the "normal" admin explorer version of those pages, and be able to view/add child pages to them.
essentially giving myself a column with the little arrows in on the right, just like in the normal wagtail admin page explorer...
OK I know it's bad form to answer your own question, but I've got this working by using a custom method on the model admin object that reverse wagtails admin urls:
class MySpecialPageModelAdmin(ModelAdmin):
def view_children(self, obj):
url = reverse('wagtailadmin_explore', args=[obj.id])
return format_html(f'View Children')
list_display = ('title', 'live', 'view_children')
but actually, I think I'm not going to end up using this, just replacing this particular modeladmin with a direct link to the right place in the explorer.

Nested CakePHP Routing

I'm working on a CMS and would like to configure cake to automatically find the proper page to use based upon the URL. I don't want to have to manually set this and want it to automatically work if I create new pages (based upon slugs).
Let's say I have the following "page layout":
News
-Local
-World
-article1
Products
-Product1
-details
-photos
etc
So: mysite.com/local/world/article1 would load "Article1". If I added a page under article1 titled "photos", then: mysite.com/local/world/article1/photos would work. Also, mysite.com/products/product1/details would work, etc. Any page I add to the site should be available (it should use a parent/child method). Any tips on making this happen with CakePHP?

How to change the label of view/results buttons in Webform drupal-7

I am a newbie in drupal, webform and php. Actually I have installed the drupal-7 with the webform module and I want to modify the text of options i.e. "view" to "create project" and "Results" to "View Projects"...
I searched for solution and I noticed that best option is to create a custom module and use hook_form_alter() to modify, so I have created a custom module. But I dont know how I can modify.
Kindly excuse me if the solution is already there (I could not find it :( )
"View" and "Results" are actually menu items, which you can modify by implementing hook_menu_alter().
http://drupal.org/node/483324
The following code in a custom module (change MODULENAME to the name of your module) will update the "Results" tab without a hitch, however the "View" tab is trickier because that's the core "view node" menu item. The code below will update this menu item for ALL node types, not just webforms. If you don't see the changes, clear your cache.
As far as I know there is no way to alter menu items ("View" in this case) for specific node types. See http://drupal.org/node/754508 for some attempts and discussion.
function MODULENAME_menu_alter(&$items) {
// change webform "Results" to "View Projects"
$items['node/%webform_menu/webform-results']['title'] = t('View Projects');
// change "View" to "Create Project" - affects *all* node types, not just webforms
$items['node/%node/view']['title'] = t('Create Project');
}
Ey I found one easy way to change everything in everything drupal 7 maybe in others try the moduls to install is String Overrides, link: http://drupal.org/project/stringoverrides, then you put the name in the configuration username and the newname
I hope this information is useful
add a picture how! >> http://s2.subirimagenes.com/otros/previo/thump_7143242string.jpg
