I've been tinkering with building a new module (prior to jumping in fully and building a website).
I've created the admin forms and my image is being successfully uploaded and saved to the file_managed table... all good.
Help please! I've tried to setup Drupal 8.0.1 on server many times, but i have these problems:
- Your MySQL server and PHP MySQL driver must support utf8mb4 character encoding. Make sure to use a database system that supports this (such as MySQL/MariaDB/Percona 5.5.3 and up), and that the utf8mb4 character set is compiled in. See the MySQL documentation for more information.
In all of my sites I make heavy use of dynamically computed entity reference field backlinks (using Views with contextual filters).
For example, if a node page has a 'visit also' entity reference field, it also has a 'Visit also (backlinks)' field created using the extremely handy contributed EVA: Entity Views Attachment, for which there is no D8 version yet.
In D8 in default the view "taxonomy_term" is used to render a term page with the referenced nodes. For some taxonomy term (depending on vocabulary) I need to use another view (or display) to change the output of the term pages. But all other terms/vocabularies should use the default "taxonomy_term" view.
Is there a simple way?
Currently, the only way I found was to alter the Routing for /taxonomy/term/{taxonomy_term} and use my own controller with a switch logic on it. But I think there must be something simpler (maybe some "special" settings inside the view).
