Plone5.2/6 and Python3 compatibility.

Hi @maethu

I updated code so it is now useable on Plone6 alpha3, it should still work on Plone4/Plone5 too.

Could you please have a look?

This is linked to 4teamwork/ftw.slider#105

Thank you!

Hi @maethu

I come back to you regarding this PR and the ftw.slider PR that are related.

I would like to add french translations as well, I think full upgrade to Plone6 could take some time but we could go for alpha releases of ftw.slider and ftw.referencewidget.

Actually these package mostly work on Plone6, even the reference widget in TinyMCE, except that it is not possible to use the search in the popup.

A branch with alpha releases that would evolve would be great because already useable and fixed step by step...

Thank you!

Hi @maethu

we added french translations but this does not cover every translations.

Some translations are stored in the resources/link.xml file and only support german.

I do not know what is the best way to handle this but again that would be great.

I think this widget is much more handy than default widget, that is why we would like to use it.

Thank you,

Gauthier

Hey did you see my work on the fork? --> https://github.com/webcloud7/ftw.referencewidget
I started a new widget based on bootstrap 5.2 / restapi / vuejs3.

It works with plone >= 6.0.0a4 and plone.staticrsources master branch.

This version of the widget will no longer work with the next Plone release (probably a plone 6 beta).

Hi @maethu

OK I could try the new version of ftw.referencewidget on a Plone6.0.0a6 site thru ftw.slider, and it works very well ;-)

We are building a new application on Plone6 but that relies on eea.facetednavigation that does not work with Plone > 6.0.0a3 for now... So we will not be able to use this new version of ftw.referencewidget immediately but it looks promising and we can test it and complete it (french translations) when you ask for it. In the next weeks/months, we will also work on moving various pieces to new Plone6 resources registration.

Thank you for this great work!

@gbastien FYI the latest version over here: https://github.com/webcloud7/ftw.referencewidget is now registered as patternslib pattern as well, which makes it work in overlays as well.
