Universal Content Puller Elements

Jump past navigation
A developer extension for Universal Content Puller. Format content display using Concrete CMS Elements.

With Universal Content Puller you can pull content from pretty much anywhere, manipulate and filter it with transforms, then display it with a content display. The bundled content displays are fairly flexible, but sometimes you need a display that does a little bit more than can be achieved with the many options available and a bit of CSS.

A custom display used to require developing a new content display for your site, usually as a variation from an existing display. Now with Universal Content Puller Elements we have an even easier option. Let Universal Content Puller ​​​​​​ do all the heavy lifting and code just a small Concrete CMS element to format the pulled content exactly how you would like it for display.

Universal Content Puller Elements is a developer level content display for Universal Content Puller Once installed, you will have Element and Element List content displays.

In its basic use, Universal Content Puller Elements provides an edit dialog for selecting an element and mapping data from the transform to the element.  As a developer, it is up to you to code your own element to format images and information and then select your element in the edit dialog.

Universal Content Puller Elements provides some basic elements as diagnostic aids and as examples of how to use Universal Content Puller Elements. The real power of Universal Content Puller Elements is when you provide your own elements for display. You can pull in any data from the content transform and use it however you like.

  • The Element content display renders your element once, so will typically be configured to pass all the data from the transform.
  • The Element List content display renders your element once for each item in a list of content passed by the transform, passing data for that item in the list.

All the usual Universal Content Puller options for pagination, ajax, sanitization, linking and cacheing can be applied.

Extension

Universal Content Puller is designed for extension. Content sources, transforms and displays follow a pluggable and extensible architecture for easy integration of further sources, transforms and displays from within Universal Content Puller or provided by third party packages or your own application specific plugins.

Universal Content Puller Elements makes this extension even easier. You only need to code an element, then use the sources and transforms provided by Universal Content Puller to supply data to that element.
