Zoran Salamun — Jan 10, 2017

Today I will show you how to create custom data component in Pimcore 4.4.. If you are using Pimcore, sooner or later you will end up with requirement for new form element (complex type). Data components in Pimcore are object types used for complex data modeling on object. Data component consists from data, tag Extjs scripts and one Model which is responsible for saving/loading configuration. Currently Pimcore has 19 complex data components (you can read more on https://www.pimcore.org/docs/latest/Objects/Object_Classes/Data_Types/index.html), and they will cover most requirements you will ever need. However, if (when) you’ll need a custom data component, here’s how you can create it.

Magento Grid Serializer for Ajax Grids

Damir Korpar — Sep 22, 2014

In Magento selectable grids, each time after a grid operation is performed (whether it’s filtering the results, pagination or something else), the selected values get lost. In other words, Magento by default keeps only values selected after the grid is initialized in the beginning and loses them each time the grid gets reloaded by Ajax call. Fortunately, Magento has a built-in library called Grid Serializer to solve this issue.

How to add an external javascript/css file to Magento?

Vedran Subotic — Feb 18, 2011

Have you ever had a need for adding external files into your Magento layout?
If you had then you know that you cannot do that from your xml layout files using methods/action:

<action method="addJs">
<action method="addCss">
or
<action method="addItem">

You could do that by hard-coding your “head.phtml” file, but then those external files will be loaded on all Magento pages.
This simple extension will provide you easy access for adding/removing external files such as JavaScript or CSS, libraries from remote servers which you cannot or don’t want to put on your server.
I called it Inchoo_Xternal extension.
