Modifies GridFields & GridField detail forms to use standard page edit form (with versioning, history & settings).

Best used in combination with:

• silverstripe-excludechildren module to hide pages from the sitetree

Or use/subclass the preconfigured GridfieldPages module, which contains both the excludechildren module and this sitetreebuttons module:

• silverstripe-gridfieldpages

Manage (add & edit) SiteTree items from a GridField:

In GridFieldConfig, replace GridFieldAddNewButton('toolbar-header-right') with GridFieldAddNewSiteTreeItemButton('toolbar-header-right') and new GridFieldDetailForm() with GridFieldEditSiteTreeItemButton()

Like this:

$gfconf = GridFieldConfig_RecordEditor::create();
$gfconf->removeComponentsByType('GridFieldAddNewButton');
$gfconf->addComponent(new GridFieldAddNewSiteTreeItemButton('toolbar-header-right'));
$gfconf->removeComponentsByType('GridFieldAddNewButton');
$gfconf->addComponent(new GridFieldEditSiteTreeItemButton());

SilverStripe 3.0 or higher

Use/subclass the prefabricated GridfieldPages module as a all-in-one base:

• silverstripe-gridfieldpages
