We've long wanted a way to utilise a CDN to offload images/files/videos from ProcessWire sites without losing all the native greatness of ProcessWire image and file field types. Having read various discussions on here about ways to approach this that never seemed to reach conclusion, I've thrown myself into creating a module that allows offloading of files to Bunny.net CDN as we need a solution for a specific project. I think this would be easily adaptable to any S3 compatible CDN but I've only tested on Bunny. ⚠️ This is still very beta! Use at your own risk! I've been conducting basic testing and so far, so good but there's bound to be holes or things that others may suggest better ways of doing. But I'm now at a stage where the insight/experience of the PW community might add value to the project - so I'm sharing now! Full disclosure: Once past the initial project scaffolding I've been using AI/careful prompting to write some of the code so that I can arrive at a prototype as quickly as possible. This seems to have worked well, although some of the code looks a little verbose and could probably be refactored later on. Also not security/pen-tested yet. https://github.com/warp-design/WireBunnyCdn/ Features: Automatically uploads images to Bunny storage on page save, including all variants and mirrors assets folder structure for simple merging back to local at a later date if needed. Automatically cleanses deleted files (or files from deleted pages) from your CDN. Option to mirror files to CDN or delete local copies (this is the main aim for me, otherwise we could just use ProCache). Handles (basic currently) image sizing - either using standard ProcessWire `$image->size(X,X)` methods or by implementing Bunny Optimizer for sizing using URL params. Rewrites image paths via CDN so that you can use standard `$page->imageField->url` calls with the output being a Bunny path rather than local PW path. Also handles the image previews in admin view. Roadmap: Support for video uploads (with optional separate CDN endpoint for Bunny Stream buckets). Support for front-end video output to templates using Bunny stream players/optimisation etc. Implement chunked/background uploads for large files. Support for other size() method options, like cropping etc and mapping to Bunny Optimizer equivalents. Anyway - look forward to hearing any advice/feedback/bug reports... I'm sure there's many!

Did your upgrade of PHP perhaps change from CGI to FastCGI, or even FPM? There might be a resource utilization difference there, as I don't believe the upgrade of ProcessWire would cause SQL error states like that. I'm not sure if ProcessWire is fully PHP v8.4 compliant yet. You should be pretty safe with PHP 8.2, and maybe PHP 8.3. The errors should be, if I'm not mistaken, warnings, however, not actual errors.

With new version 1.0.4 it is possible now to set multiple Stripe API Keys in the modules config. This is especially useful for testing. Unfortunatly the module still has the "pending" status, so you will not be able to upgrade via the backend. See:

Updated to this last version but I still keep getting an error: Parse Error: syntax error, unexpected token "{" Line 1984 of /site/modules/Pages2Pdf/mpdf/mpdf.php Also, images are stretched when rendering the pdf: https://www.birthfactdeathcalendar.net/events/dates/november/1-november/?pages2pdf=2867 This is the code for images: <td width='150' valign='bottom'> <div style='max-width:150'> <img src=\"{$webimage}\" align='right' style='width:100%; height:100%'> </div></td> Processwire 3.0.246 PHP 8.4

Dear Nicolas, I regret my late reply. Yes, I am interested. Nantes certainly sounds French. We can also continue our conversation in French if you prefer. Bien le bonjour! François Alesch You can reach me on WhatsApp at +43 650 2537243

I would love to try this but I am getting an error when trying to restore the backup on the prod machine. When trying to go into the Database Migrations page I get an error that says: Unknown field supplied to saveField for page 1167 If I choose the migration from the admin section of the page tree I get the same error. I can open up the bootstrap one though. It was only a simple test. I added a field and a template in the dev side.

@ryan - I can no longer log into the modules directory. I don't get any notification as to why either, but I do see this JS error (which might be unrelated).

Thanks - yes I forgot about PageGrid.

Hi all, I’ve recently published a module and it still shows as pending. I can’t see it in the "My Modules" directory overview – although I can navigate to the module page directly via URL. Two questions: Is it intentional that even the author doesn’t see their own pending module in the overview? What’s the process for a module to move out of pending status? Does it require manual review or certain criteria? Thanks for any insights! Cheers, Mike

Quick Tree This module is great for productivity when editing many pages within the admin, as it gives you direct access to the page tree navigation without having to hover the tree icon first. Download from Github For non-superusers the page dropdown currently looks like this (if no bookmarks are defined): With this module it looks like this: For super-users or users with all permissions set it looks like this: These changes are achieved width a small js file that triggers the ajax tree navigation after the dom has been loaded. While I have tested it already a bit, I release this for now as a beta version. I hope others find it useful as well.

@Mike-it - sorry, it's not possible at all with the way the module works. A workaround is @teppo's https://processwire.com/modules/admin-restrict-branch-select/ which extends this module. Not quite what you are looking for, but maybe it will suffice.

Super @adrian! Yes of course use the numeric key! I'll try it soon! It worked!

hi @Jonathan Lahijani I can't remember of any flag that I set, but there is $config->external that should be true when used from the cli, which is the case with rockshell. What is "put PW in CLI mode?", I don't understand.

@ryan was there ever any movement on this, they are now up to version 8.1.2. I don't keep up with the WYSIWYG landscape, does it matter that PW is so far behind?

Thanks for the info.

This week we've got several updates to the core on the dev branch. It's primarily focused on small issue fixes and optimizations. Though there's enough since 3.0.251 that I'm bumping the dev branch version to 3.0.252. Next week there won't be any new updates this time next week because I'll be traveling, but will be back right working on the core right after that. Thanks for reading and have a great weekend!

No, neither nor. It only happens when I use them inside a combo and only when with TinyMCE.

Hi, I am working for a small-to-medium business and we have hundreds of websites out there and with a considerable percentage of those, we have a service contract set up. We're coming from WordPress and we did the switch to PW in 2021. So, still today, the majority of our long-running service contracts are about WordPress sites, trending down fast though. We're offering our clients a few things in our service contracts: Basic guarantee that their website will run and continue to run in an ever-changing environment of servers and technologies. A predefined amount of free hours to work on the website, which even includes minor design changes, adjustments and even small new features. Bigger undertakings require a new project contract though. Reduced hourly rates for work on the website if the hours go over the amount predefined in 2, using the same conditions as in 2. I have to say though that we have a LOT of clients who simply DO NOT WANT to edit their own site but have us do it for them. That's why for them, especially the second and third point above is a big plus and is also the main reason we're designing our service contracts like this. For WordPress sites, point 1 consists of updates, backups and health checks which we do in regular intervals spread out across the whole year. For ProcessWire, it's just backups and health checks and thus on average lower predefined hours in 2.

Worth a read! "The lesson here is to never mix manually constructed SQL fragments and bindings when using PDO emulation. You are opening yourself up to a huge risk by doing so as a single misparse results in SQL injection. If you are a developer: Disable PDO::ATTR_EMULATE_PREPARES if possible; If not, ensure you are on the latest version (PHP 8.4) and you do not allow null bytes in your queries." https://slcyber.io/assetnote-security-research-center/a-novel-technique-for-sql-injection-in-pdos-prepared-statements/
