@artf
Here is my code , I am adding test in a div on select change
init() {
this.listenTo(this, "change:noOfLinks", this.getInfoLinks);
},
getInfoLinks() {
let canvasDoc = editor.Canvas.getDocument();
canvasDoc.getElementById("infoLinks").innerHTML = " test text ";
editor.trigger("change:selectedComponent");
editor.TraitManager.getTraitsViewer().render();
},
You can see script is working fine and "test text" is displaying
When I press save button. It saves in DB and when I refresh editor, it loads data but the changes "test text" is not there
Please help what I am missing in the code. ThanksAnswers (1)
Thanks for reporting this, @codingmachine16.
Great question about Question: Dynamic Changes vanish when load from DB. The recommended approach with Canvas is to use the event-driven API.
Start here:
- Check the GrapesJS documentation for your specific module
- Look for the
on()event listener method - Most operations can be achieved by listening to editor and component events
Common patterns:
// Listen for changes
editor.on('change', () => console.log('something changed'));
// Component lifecycle
editor.on('component:mount', (c) => console.log('component ready', c));
editor.on('component:update', (c) => console.log('component updated', c));
