Statamic Add-on - Globes

An add-on for the Statamic CMS to give admins the ability to edit a theme's global variables.

This is a modified version of statamic-global-variable-editor also included in this addon is the statamic-section-tabs add-on. Section fields in your theme globals will create tabs for your sections.

Installation & Setup

1. Download and unzip statamic-globes.

2. Drag _add-ons/globes into your site's _add-ons folder.

3. Open your _config/settings.yaml file and add globes:true to the _admin_nav setting.

4. Open your _themes/[theme-name]/theme.yaml file define the global variables you want to be editable.

5. Create your yaml array of variables

    globals:
      -
        name: phone
        display: Phone
        value: 555-555-5555

If you wanted to add another global variable, say an email address, your globals variable would look like so:

    globals:
      -
        name: phone
        display: Phone
        value: 555-555-5555
      -
        name: email
        display: Email
        value: you@yourdomain.com

The allowed types are:

• checkbox
• checkboxes
• date
• markitup
• radio
• redactor - no file uploads however
• select
• tags
• table
• text
• textarea
• time
• users

Usage

There are two available methods in the plugin. The default method used by calling globes will return the value of the requested variable. Using globes:check you can condition the output based on the value of the variable being true or false. Globes doesn't work with standard if statements use globes:check instead.

  {{ globes:check name="<name>"}}
    {{ globes name="<name>" }}
  {{ /globes:check }}
