panopoly 7.x-1.14

This release includes Drupal 7.34 which fixes a moderately critical security vulnerability. See the full security advisory here:

Drupal Core - Moderately Critical - Multiple Vulnerabilities - SA-CORE-2014-006

Beyond the Drupal core update, this also includes a number of minor bug fixes, but the big change is switching to Radix Layouts, rather than providing custom layouts in Panopoly Theme!

Unlike most Panopoly releases, this one may require some additional action on your part after the upgrade - so read on!

Special upgrade instructions for Radix Layouts

Why switch to Radix Layouts?

This is something we've been trying to do for around two years! It took lots of effort by many people, including a final push at the Panopoly sprint at BADCamp, to get this finally merged.

There are several advantages to this switch:

• Panopoly Theme provides more than just cool Panels layouts, and the extra stuff it provides is mostly Panopoly-specific. Radix Layouts provides just Panels layouts, with equivalent versions of all the Panopoly layouts, so we'd prefer to support the more reusable alternative that people can use on non-Panopoly sites too!
• Radix Layouts uses the Bootstrap 3 grid system (although, it can work in non-Bootstrap 3 themes just fine). Panopoly Theme used custom CSS - no grid system at all! Having this grid system available in Panopoly means you can use it to create your custom layouts too, which is much easier to use than custom CSS.
• Radix Layouts are compatible with the Radix theme (our old layouts weren't), which is one of the most commonly used base themes with Panopoly. This is also a first step to including the Radix theme in Panopoly (also a long time in the making).
• This removes TONS of code from Panopoly-specific modules, which means less code for us to maintain :-)

So, what do I need to do?

In most cases, nothing. :-)

However, if you:

1. ... wrote a custom theme which depends on CSS classes used in the old layouts, or
2. ... created a Feature which refers to any of the old Panopoly layouts

Then you may need to take some additional action (but not always).

My theme depended on CSS classes in the old layouts and now everything looks broken!

There are three possible solutions...

Use the panopoly_theme_backcompat module

The first (and quickest) option is to download and install this sandbox module which will switch the Radix Layouts back to the old templates from Panopoly Theme:

https://www.drupal.org/sandbox/dsnopek/2378979

Because it's a sandbox module (as opposed to a full project), you'll need to use Git to download it.

Update your CSS

The second option, is to update your CSS selectors to match the new ones used in Radix Layouts. Here's a quick translation of some selectiors from the "bryant" layout, for example:

Switch to using style plugins

A third option, would be to use Panels style plugins rather than CSS in order to style your regions and widgets. This is the most Panels-y approach and what I'd recommend as a best practice for new sites going forward! You can use the 'stylizer' module (included in Panopoly but not enabled by default) to create style plugins using the UI, if you don't want to write any PHP code.

I use Kalatheme and now the layout fills the whole window?!

If you use Kalatheme and your layout used be fixed width, but now the layout stretches to fit the whole screen, you need at add <div class="container">...</div> around the main content area in your page template.

There is an open issue for this in the Panopoly queue: #2379315: New Radix layouts fill entire viewport in Kalatheme

We hope to get a fix merged directly into Kalatheme!

I use Radix and now the layout fills the whole window?!

Update to Radix 3.0-rc1, which includes a fix for this.

I have some Features which refer to the old layouts - do I need to do anything?

You don't need to do anything for your Feature to continue working, because the panopoly_theme layouts are still present, they are just stubs that actually use the radix_layouts to render. So, if you have a Feature which contains a Panels page that uses the "bryant" layout, it will continue to render fine, it'll just use the "radix_bryant" layout to do it.

However, if you allow your users to customize your Panels with the Panels IPE, this could cause a minor user experience issue when they click "Change this layout": the layout that is being currently used won't be selected! This is because the stub layouts (while still present) are hidden from the user.

So, you should go through your features and replace any old panopoly_theme layouts with their radix equivalents. In most cases, this is just adding "radix_" to the front of the name. (The only exception is that "bryant_flipped_flipped" needs to become "radix_bryant_flipped" - without the extra "_flipped").

We include a hook_update_N() function that will update any user created Panels in the database (ie. ones that aren't in Features) automatically. So, if you make this change to your Features at the same time as you update to Panopoly 1.14, users won't be able to create any new Panels with the stub layouts. :-)

The breakpoint for the new layouts is 992px - I liked the old breakpoint at 480px?!

The new Radix layouts will switch to "mobile mode" when the screen is smaller than 992px in width, whereas the old layouts did so for screens smaller than 480px.

If you liked having the the breakpoint at 480px, there are a couple options!

1. Use my sandbox from above to switch back to the old layouts: https://www.drupal.org/sandbox/dsnopek/2378979
2. Copy the radix_layouts.css into your theme and modify the media query to break 480px - this is what Open Church decided to do!
3. Help implement this as a user-configurable option for Radix Layouts: see #2384953: Allow users to choose which grid to use (xs, sm, md, lg)?
