Min Side Expert Context

Use this skill when working on /min-side/ routes, user authentication, access control, or member portal features in BIM Verdi.

1. Architecture Overview

Router System

Min Side uses a single router template that maps URL paths to part files:

template-minside-router.php
    ↓
inc/minside-helpers.php (route definitions)
    ↓
parts/minside/{part-file}.php

Key files:

• template-minside-router.php - Main router template
• inc/minside-helpers.php - Route definitions + helper functions
• header-minside.php - Authenticated header
• parts/minside/*.php - Individual view templates

Adding a New Route

1. Add route to bimverdi_get_minside_routes() in inc/minside-helpers.php:

'my-route'       => 'my-route',        // Simple route
'parent/child'   => 'parent-child',    // Nested route

1. Create template file: parts/minside/{part-file}.php

2. Optionally add to navigation in bimverdi_get_minside_nav()

2. Complete Route Map

Active Routes (17+)

Legacy Route Aliases

These redirect to new routes for backward compatibility:

• /min-side/mine-verktoy/ → verktoy-list
• /min-side/registrer-verktoy/ → verktoy-registrer
• /min-side/rediger-verktoy/ → verktoy-rediger
• /min-side/rediger-foretak/ → foretak-rediger
• /min-side/rediger-profil/ → profil-rediger
• /min-side/endre-passord/ → profil-passord
• /min-side/skriv-artikkel/ → artikler-skriv

3. User Roles & Access Control

Account Types

WordPress Roles

Important: deltaker, prosjektdeltaker, and partner have IDENTICAL capabilities. The difference is business/pricing only.

Hovedkontakt vs Tilleggskontakt

Feature Access Control

Requires Company (foretak account type):

const COMPANY_REQUIRED_FEATURES = [
    'register_tool',      // Registrere verktøy
    'edit_tool',          // Redigere verktøy
    'write_article',      // Skrive artikler
    'submit_case',        // Sende inn prosjektidéer
    'join_temagruppe',    // Velge temagrupper
    'company_profile',    // Redigere foretaksprofil
    'view_members_full',  // Se fullt medlemsinnhold
];

Open to All Logged-In Users:

const OPEN_FEATURES = [
    'view_dashboard',     // Se Min Side dashboard
    'edit_profile',       // Redigere egen profil
    'view_catalog',       // Se medlemskatalog
    'view_tools',         // Se verktøykatalog
    'register_event',     // Melde seg på arrangementer
    'view_events',        // Se arrangementer
    'connect_company',    // Koble til foretak
];

4. Helper Functions

URL Helpers

// Get Min Side base URL
bimverdi_minside_base_url();  // Returns: https://site.com/min-side

// Generate Min Side URL
bimverdi_minside_url('verktoy');           // /min-side/verktoy/
bimverdi_minside_url('verktoy/rediger', ['id' => 123]);  // /min-side/verktoy/rediger/?id=123

// Get current route
bimverdi_get_current_route();  // Returns: 'verktoy/rediger'

// Check if on specific route
bimverdi_is_minside_route('verktoy');      // true for /verktoy/ and /verktoy/rediger/
bimverdi_is_minside_route(['profil', 'foretak']);  // Multiple routes

// Get primary route segment
bimverdi_get_primary_route();  // 'verktoy' from 'verktoy/rediger'

Company & User Helpers

// Check if user has company
bimverdi_user_has_company($user_id);  // Returns: bool

// Get user's company ID
bimverdi_get_user_company($user_id);  // Returns: int|false

// Check if user is hovedkontakt
bimverdi_is_hovedkontakt($user_id, $company_id);  // Returns: bool

// Check if company is active/approved
bimverdi_is_company_active($company_id);  // Returns: bool

// Get account type
bimverdi_get_account_type($user_id);  // Returns: 'profil', 'foretak', or 'guest'

Access Control Helpers

// Check feature access
bimverdi_can_access('register_tool');  // Returns: bool

// Render locked feature UI
BIMVerdi_Access_Control::render_locked_ui('register_tool', 'Custom message');

// Render locked card component
bimverdi_locked_card('Title', 'Description', 'icon-name', 'feature');

// Render "connect to company" CTA
bimverdi_connect_company_cta();

Navigation Helper

// Get navigation structure
$nav = bimverdi_get_minside_nav();
// Returns array with: label, url, icon, badge, routes

5. Company ID Storage (Legacy Migration)

User's company is stored in user_meta. Check these keys in order:

1. bimverdi_company_id (new standard)
2. bim_verdi_company_id (legacy)
3. ACF field tilknyttet_foretak (fallback)

Always use the helper function bimverdi_get_user_company() which handles all three.

6. ACF Field Reference

Defined in bim-verdi-core/includes/class-content-types.php:

BV_CPT_COMPANY       = 'foretak'       // Member companies
BV_CPT_TOOL          = 'verktoy'       // Software tools

BV_CPT_THEME_GROUP   = 'theme_group'   // Temagrupper
BV_CPT_ARTICLE       = 'artikkel'      // Member articles

8. Gravity Forms

Form IDs

• Form 10: Email signup (Step 1) - Email verification flow
• Form 11: Account activation (Step 2) - Name + password

Form Handlers

Located in mu-plugins/bimverdi-email-verification.php and bimverdi-gforms-setup.php.

Usage in Templates

Forms are embedded via PHP or shortcode in registration flows, not typically in Min Side views.

9. Design System Rules

Always follow claude/UI-CONTRACT.md when building Min Side templates.

Key Principles

1. P1: Whitespace + dividers as primary structure (no "boxes everywhere")
2. P2: Clickability must be explicit (only buttons/links are interactive)
3. P3: Information ≠ handling (info in borderless sections, actions in buttons)
4. P4: Show only what exists (hide empty fields)
5. P5: Rolig, consistent enterprise style (minimal visual noise)

Layout Widths

• Standard content: max-width: 1200-1280px
• Form pages: max-width: 960px
• Spacing scale: 8px increments

Color Palette

Text Primary:    #1A1A1A   text-[#1A1A1A]
Text Secondary:  #5A5A5A   text-[#5A5A5A]
Dividers:        #D6D1C6   border-[#D6D1C6]
Background:      #F7F5EF   bg-[#F7F5EF]
CTA/Orange:      #FF8B5E   bg-[#FF8B5E]

Button Component

Use bimverdi_button() from parts/components/button.php:

bimverdi_button([
    'text' => 'Lagre',
    'variant' => 'primary',  // primary, secondary, tertiary, danger
    'size' => 'medium',      // small, medium, large
    'icon' => 'save',        // Lucide icon name
    'href' => '/url',        // Makes it a link
]);

Icons

Use Lucide icons (https://lucide.dev):

• layout-dashboard - Dashboard
• wrench - Tools
• file-text - Articles
• lightbulb - Ideas
• calendar - Events
• building-2 - Company
• user-plus - Invitations
• chevron-right - Navigate

10. Temagrupper (Theme Groups)

Important: Temagrupper are linked to foretak (companies), NOT individual users.

• All users linked to a foretak can view the company's temagrupper
• Only hovedkontakt can change temagruppe memberships
• Temagruppe selection is a company-level setting

11. Common Patterns

Access Check in Template

<?php
// At top of template part
$user_id = get_current_user_id();
$company_id = bimverdi_get_user_company($user_id);

// Require company
if (!$company_id) {
    bimverdi_connect_company_cta();
    return;
}

// Require hovedkontakt
if (!bimverdi_is_hovedkontakt($user_id, $company_id)) {
    wp_redirect(bimverdi_minside_url('foretak'));
    exit;
}
?>

Page Header Component

get_template_part('parts/components/page-header', null, [
    'title' => 'Page Title',
    'description' => 'Optional subtitle text',
    'icon' => 'wrench',  // Lucide icon
    'actions' => [
        [
            'text' => 'Primary Action',
            'href' => '/url',
            'variant' => 'primary',
            'icon' => 'plus',
        ],
    ],
]);

Breadcrumb Navigation

<nav class="text-sm mb-6" aria-label="Brødsmulesti">
    <ol class="flex items-center gap-2 text-[#5A5A5A]">
        <li><a href="<?php echo bimverdi_minside_url(); ?>" class="hover:text-[#1A1A1A]">Min side</a></li>
        <li><span class="text-[#D6D1C6]">/</span></li>
        <li><a href="<?php echo bimverdi_minside_url('parent'); ?>" class="hover:text-[#1A1A1A]">Parent</a></li>
        <li><span class="text-[#D6D1C6]">/</span></li>
        <li class="text-[#1A1A1A] font-medium">Current Page</li>
    </ol>
</nav>

Data Table Pattern

<div class="overflow-x-auto">
    <table class="w-full">
        <thead>
            <tr class="border-b border-[#D6D1C6]">
                <th class="text-left py-3 px-4 text-xs font-medium text-[#5A5A5A] uppercase tracking-wide">Column</th>
            </tr>
        </thead>
        <tbody class="divide-y divide-[#E5E2DB]">
            <tr class="hover:bg-[#F7F5EF]/50">
                <td class="py-4 px-4">Content</td>
            </tr>
        </tbody>
    </table>
</div>

12. Debug Mode

Add ?debug_router=1 to any Min Side URL (admin only) to see:

• Request URI
• Current Route
• Part File
• Query Var
