Usage

• Add address and phone numbers to your Objects by extending them with
  FlexiAddressExtension.

class Office extends Page
{

    private static $extensions = array(
        'FlexiAddressExtension'
    );

}

• Trigger the environment builder (/dev/build) after extending your objects --
  You will now see the Address tab when editing Office in the CMS.

Front-end

FlexiAddress provides a shortcut to return the first address associated.
Here's an example Office.ss

```html
<div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/LocalBusiness" id="office">
  <h1>$Title</h1>

  ...
  
  $FlexiAddress
  
  <div class="office-phone-numbers">
    <% loop FlexiAddress.PhoneNumbers %>
      <% include FlexiAddressPhone %>
    <% end_loop %>
  </div>
  
  ...

</div>

You can also loop through addresses. Here's an example Office.ss

<div itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/LocalBusiness" id="office">

  <h1>$Title</h1>

  ... 
  
  <% loop FlexiAddresses %>

    <h2>Address</h2>
    <% include FlexiAddress %> 
    
    <a href="$AddressMapLink" target="_blank" class="directions font-opensans">
      Get Directions
    </a> 
      
    <% loop PhoneNumbers %> 
      <% include FlexiAddressPhone %> 
    <% end_loop %> 
  <% end_loop %> 
  
  ... 
  
</div>

You may, as always, override the built-in templates by
adding them to your theme and changing markup as needed.

Limiting Fields

You may find the built-in address fields a bit too much. Here's a few strategies
to limit them;

• Strategy 1: Globally via mysite/config/config.yml

---

FlexiAddressExtension:
  flexiaddress_fields:
    - StreetLine1
    - City
    - PhoneNumbers

• Strategy 2: Via the $flexiaddress_fields property on extended classes

class Office extends Page
{

    protected static $flexiaddress_fields = array(
        'StreetLine1',
        'City',
        'PhoneNumbers'
    );
}

• Strategy 3: Via YAML Configuration of extended classes

---

Office:
  flexiaddress_fields:
    - StreetLine1
    - City
    - PhoneNumbers

Changing the Address Tab Name

By default, flexiaddress adds its GridField to the Root.Address tab. You
can configure this in a couple of ways;

• Strategy 1: Via YAML Configuration

---

# Global Change
FlexiAddressExtension:
  flexiaddress_tab: Root.Addresses
  
# Class Specific
Office:
  flexiaddress_tab: Root.Main
  flexiaddress_insertBefore: Content

• Strategy 2: Through your extended class

class Office extends Page
{

    // Option 1 - properties
    ////////////////////////
    
    protected static $flexiaddress_tab = 'Root.Main';
    protected static $flexiaddress_insertBefore = 'Content';
   
    // Option 2 - via Config::inst()->update
    ////////////////////////////////////////
    
    public function getCMSFields()
    {
        $this->set_stat('flexiaddress_tab', 'Root.Addresses');
        return parent::getCMSFields();
    }
   
}

Changing the Add New GridField Button

If you don't like "Create New Address", follow the Changing the Address Tab Name
procecedure, but alter the flexiaddress_addButton propperty.
