### 4. Database Storage
|
||||
|
||||
**What's Stored:**
|
||||
All homepage settings are saved to the `site_settings` table in PostgreSQL:
|
||||
|
||||
```sql
|
||||
Key: 'homepage'
|
||||
Settings JSON Structure:
|
||||
{
|
||||
"hero": {
|
||||
"enabled": true/false,
|
||||
"headline": "string",
|
||||
"subheading": "string",
|
||||
"description": "HTML string from Quill",
|
||||
"ctaText": "string",
|
||||
"ctaLink": "string",
|
||||
"backgroundUrl": "/uploads/...",
|
||||
"layout": "text-left|text-center|text-right"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"promotion": {
|
||||
"enabled": true/false,
|
||||
"title": "string",
|
||||
"description": "HTML string from Quill",
|
||||
"imageUrl": "/uploads/...",
|
||||
"imagePosition": "left|center|right",
|
||||
"textAlignment": "left|center|right"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"portfolio": {
|
||||
"enabled": true/false,
|
||||
"title": "string",
|
||||
"description": "HTML string from Quill",
|
||||
"count": number (3-12)
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**API Endpoints:**
|
||||
|
||||
**Admin (Write):**
|
||||
|
||||
- `POST /api/admin/homepage/settings` - Save homepage settings
|
||||
- Requires authentication
|
||||
- Accepts JSON body with settings structure above
|
||||
|
||||
**Public (Read):**
|
||||
|
||||
- `GET /api/public/homepage/settings` - Fetch homepage settings
|
||||
- No authentication required
|
||||
- Returns settings for frontend display
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Frontend Integration
|
||||
|
||||
**What Changed in home.html:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Added IDs to all homepage elements
|
||||
- Created `loadHomepageSettings()` function
|
||||
- Dynamically updates content from database
|
||||
- Applies styling based on admin choices
|
||||
- Shows/hides sections based on enabled status
|
||||
|
||||
**Dynamic Elements:**
|
||||
|
||||
- Hero headline, subheading, description, CTA text/link, background
|
||||
- Promotion title, description, image
|
||||
- Portfolio title, description
|
||||
- Text alignment, image positions, layouts
|
||||
|
||||
**How It Works:**
|
||||
|
||||
1. Page loads
|
||||
2. Fetches `/api/public/homepage/settings`
|
||||
3. Applies all settings to page elements
|
||||
4. Updates content and styling dynamically
|
||||
5. Sections auto-hide if disabled
|
||||
|
||||

## Technical Details
|
||||
|
||||
### Media Library Modal
|
||||
|
||||
The media library opens in an iframe modal with these features:
|
||||
|
||||
- Full-screen modal with close button
|
||||
- Loads existing media library interface
|
||||
- Passes selection back to parent window
|
||||
- Security: validates message origin
|
||||
- Closes automatically after selection
|
||||
|
||||
**Implementation:**
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
function openMediaLibrary(section, field) {
|
||||
// Creates modal backdrop
|
||||
// Creates iframe with media library
|
||||
// Sets up message listener
|
||||
// Handles selection callback
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Quill Editor Initialization
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
quillEditors.hero = new Quill('#heroDescription', {
|
||||
theme: 'snow',
|
||||
modules: { toolbar: toolbarOptions },
|
||||
placeholder: 'Enter hero section description...'
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Retrieving Content:**
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
quillEditors.hero.root.innerHTML // Gets HTML
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Setting Content:**
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
quillEditors.hero.root.innerHTML = savedContent;
|
||||
```
|

|

|
||||
3. Get layout settings from data attributes
|

6. POST to `/api/admin/homepage/settings`
|
||||
7. Database updates via UPSERT query
|
||||
8. Success notification
|
||||
|
||||
### Frontend Load Process
|
||||
|
||||
