Without the position relative, the booking button is no longer on top
of the carousel depending on the screen resolution, and Oriol wants less
gap between the carrousel and the next section.
I misunderstood Oriol, and what he really wanted was to have the arrows
on top of the image, not just move the arrows from below to above. Thus,
I no longer need the carrousel to be a flex because the buttons are now
absolutely position (slick.css already sets the container to relative
position).
These arrows need to be visually inside a single container, to have a
white background, but Slick adds the two arrows separately. I had to
move them close together, remove the radius from the “common edge”, and
use padding to “move” the arrows, rather than translation, in order to
avoid showing a gap.
Oriol did not like that this carousel was different from the rest, and
wanted to have it like the rest, but showing only one slide at a time,
like the customer wants.
He also wanted the arrows for **all** carousels to be in the top-right
corner instead of bottom-right, mostly because the customer complains
that she does not see the arrows if they are on the bottom, and Oriol
does not like the arrows to the sides.
This is a separate carousel from the one displayed at the bottom with
location info; it is, i suppose, a carousel for the hero image.
For the database, it works exactly as the home carousel, but on the
front had to use AlpineJS instead of Slick because it needs to show a
text popping up from the bottom when the slide is show, something i do
not know how to do in Slick.
It now makes no sense to have the carousel inside the “nature” section,
because the heading is no longer in there, and moved it out into a new
“hero” div.
Since i now have two carousels in home, i had to add additional
attributes to carousel.AdminHandler to know which URL to point to when
POSTing, PUTting, or redirecting.
Customer does not want the new “masonry-like” design of the surroundings
page, and wants the same style they already had: a regular list with
text and photo, alternating the photo’s side.
And, of course, they want to be able to add and edit them themselves. It
is like another carousel, but with an additional rich-text description.
The photos that we had in that page are no longer of use.
Had to create a custom build of CKEditor with the following plugins
added-in:
* Autoformat
* Block quote
* Bold
* General HTML Support
* Heading
* Image
* Image caption
* Image resize
* Image style
* Image toolbar
* Image upload
* Indent
* Italic
* Link
* Link image
* List
* Media embed
* Simple upload adapter
* Source editing
* Table
* Table toolbar
* Text transformation
The important bit is the “Simple uploader adapter”, that i modified to
upload the file as `media` instead of the default `upload` (i.e.,
modified ckeditor.js to replace "upload" with "media").
I also had to add the CSRF header somewhere in the HTML document for
JavaScript to be able to retrieve it and pass it to the uploader
adapter, or i would have to disable CSRF validation in that form, which
i did not like at all.
The pets icon is just the same as the notpet but without the diagonal
bar.
The price is hardcoded in the query for now, as there is no field
in the campsite type.
It is better for mobile users, as they can zoom and pan the map in their
small screens.
Had to increase header’s z-index or the zoom controls would be on top
of it.
Customer does not want a contact page, but a page where they can write
the direction on how to reach the campground, with a Google map embed
instead of using Leaflet, because Google Maps shows the reviews right
in the map.
That means i had to replace the GPS locations with XML fields for the
customer to write. In all four languages.
This time i tried a translation approach inspired by PrestaShop: instead
of opening a new page for each language, i have all languages in the
same page and use AlpineJS to show just a single language. It is far
easier to write the translations, even though you do not have the source
text visible, specially in this section that there is no place for me
to put the language links.
Customer does not want the next slide to show partially; either it shows
theo whole slide, or not at all.
Had to remove the min-width for campsite type’s spiel, or it would make
the whole thing fall over, i do not know why; possibly because slick
could not reduce the width to its expected value.
I use Sortable, exactly like HTMx’s sorting example does[0]. Had to
export the slug or ID of some entries to be able to add it in the hidden
input.
For forms that use ID instead of slug, had to use an input name other
than “id” because otherwise the swap would fail due to bug #1496[1]. It
is apparently fixed in a recent version of HTMx, but i did not want to
update for fear of behaviour changes.

Oriol does not want to waste so much vertical space for the calendar,
and wants it to show in a carousel, initially with only 6 months, and
loading the next three each time the user scrolls past the last.
I now use HTMx in the public page too for this auto-loading behavior,
based on their “infinite scroll” example[0].
Had to put the /calendar URI inside campsites because in the
calendar.gohtml i do not know the current type’s UUID, and can not use
a relative URL to “add subdirectories”, because the type does not end
with a slash.
Had to change season.CollectCalendar to expect the first month and a
number of months to show, to be able to load only 6 or 3 months after
the current, for the initial carousel content, or after the last month
of the carousel.

I had to export the Calendar type from Season to use it from
campsite/types, and also renamed them because season.SeasonCalendar is
a bit redundant compared to just season.Calendar.
I still have not added the HTMx code to switch year because i am not
sure whether Oriol will want to show a whole year or just half a year.
The calculation for the text color taking into account the contrast with
the background is from [0].
