@zilli this is such a great progress review you gave us here. From "not knowing where to start/anything" to trying and exploring, finding solutions and new options, and even noticing that nothing is perfect on first try but iterating on it can you bring you quite far. 3 months ago I had to ton of ProcessWire skills in my projects to be able to get things done in a proper and clean way, but since Ryan started to explore and use AI more and brought us AgentTools, I skipped my skill files in projects that use AgentTools. It's working perfectly fine so far. Modules are sometimes edge-cases but at the end everything started to work as intended. I love to explore more tools, guidelines, agents, harnesses, models, and whatever the latest hype is. But at the end of the day I mostly only use OpenCode with Z.AI and the OpenCode Go plan to get things done. Sometimes for really huge tasks I try the Opus models through Windsurf/Devin ($10 legacy plan ftw!). What I learned with trends and hype cycles... wait a week or two. If people still talk about it, try it. Otherwise don't even care. Gastown? Beads? OpenClaw? Ralph Loop? Karpathy XYZ? SpecKit? [...] - meh. Not really. Looks nice, may work for some, but not for me.

@cb2004 There was a lot of FA data that didn't need to be there. I've deleted it, so we should be down to ~1.6 MB now. @jploch The problem I ran into is that it's just too many icons to display at once, it made the whole window lag. We could always add a link to a page with all the icons on this site, or at the font awesome site?

Update: Withdrawals tab + Stripe custom fields (v 1.1.0) Hi all, a quick update on StripePlAdmin, the companion admin module for StripePaymentLinks. Two new things in this release: Withdrawals tab Surfaces the right-of-withdrawal (cancellation) requests that the main module stores per user (spl_withdrawals repeater). Same architecture as the other tabs — configurable columns, status/date/search filters, CSV export — plus inline-editable status and admin notes that save immediately via a small CSRF-protected AJAX endpoint. Consumer name/email link straight to the user account. The tab only shows up when the main module actually provides the feature. Custom Fields column Stripe checkout custom fields (the ones you define on a Payment Link) are now read out of the stored stripe_session meta and shown as Label: Value pairs — text, numeric and dropdown fields (dropdowns mapped back to their option label). It's a configurable column on the Purchases tab, flows into the CSV export, shows up in the purchase-details modal, and is included in the search. As always, feedback welcome, Cheers, Mike

Hi everyone, Accessibility overlays have a bad reputation — mostly because they're sold as SaaS, phone home to third-party servers, and charge monthly fees for something that should be built-in. Ally is different: self-hosted, MIT, no external requests at runtime. GitHub: https://github.com/mxmsmnv/Ally What it does Adds an accessibility panel to your site's frontend, powered by Sienna (MIT). The JS bundle and OpenDyslexic font ship with the module and are served from your own server — nothing loads from external CDNs at runtime. Font size adjustment Dark, light, and high contrast modes High/low saturation, monochrome Dyslexia-friendly font (OpenDyslexic, bundled locally) Highlight links and headings Letter spacing, line height, bold text Reading guide, stop animations, big cursor 53 languages with auto-detection from html[lang] or browser settings Full ProcessWire multi-language support — maps $user->language to the correct locale automatically Configurable position, offset, button size, and accent color Skips admin pages and Chrome Lighthouse by default No build step — prebuilt JS bundle included. One caveat: the widget is injected via Page::render hook. If you serve pages through ProCache static HTML, the hook doesn't run on cached pages — exclude those pages from ProCache if you need the widget there. Overlay widgets supplement, but do not replace, accessible markup. Use Ally alongside good semantic HTML, not instead of it. Requirements: ProcessWire 3.0.200+, PHP 8.1+ MIT License.

Hi @ukyo, when this module is installed, attempting to crop an image using the 'Crop' function results in an error, which prevents the image from being cropped: Given filename is not a file or link: /../site/assets/cache/WireTempDir/.PFM0.80307900T1780994336Rbdli4W6dXi/0/abc.713x276.jpg-tmp.jpg

I'll take a look in the near future, I think it's possible to automate this somehow.

There are still a few modules left to do...

Thx for the loveletter @gebeer and others. I thought I've already replied, but it seems that post got lost. I'm getting a lot of 500 errors these days in the forum. I wouldn't say I've quit the community. What I've stepped away from is making significant investments in the ecosystem and trying to build a business around it. That didn't work out for me, so I had to move on. As for RockMigrations: I understand and even share some of the concerns raised here (even though I find terms like "bloated nature" a bit harsh). It started as a somewhat experimental proof of concept, and yes, I built it with my other modules in mind. At the same time, it has always been completely free because I felt it was too important to put behind a paywall, and it has always been open to PRs. 😉 Nevertheless, over time it turned out to be very reliable and became an essential tool for my work. Considering that all my ProcessWire projects from the last decade rely on it, I expect it will remain supported for quite some time. That's the status quo. What I did find a little surprising, though, was seeing migrations become part of the core years later, seemingly almost overnight, while RockMigrations and the other migration modules weren't much of a reference point in that process. Unfortunately, it's not the first time I've seen that happen. What I learned from that experience is that it's not something I can build a business on. So I really haven't quit on the community — I've simply moved on from trying to build a business around my ProcessWire contributions, and my reduced forum activity is just a consequence of that. But I check in from time to time to see what's going on and I try my best to be available and helpful if anybody needs anything related to my modules. 🙂

That’s brilliant 🤩 Thanks for the skill

Great :-) I have also done a small genealogy/history project with ProcessWire this year: https://www.glashytt.at/

WIP Possible approach below. Add a new top-level category — ProcessWire Discussion. It contains community-facing boards that were previously under General support and some new ones. Labels and descriptions are just placeholders. ProcessWire Discussion A place to talk about ProcessWire beyond support — share, discuss and connect with the community. General Discussion — ProcessWire chat that isn’t a support question. Showcase / Case Studies — Have you done something nice with ProcessWire? Share it here. Wishlist & Roadmap — Tell us what you’d like to see in ProcessWire. Module Spotlight — Highlight and discuss notable modules without it being a support question. Business & Freelancing — Pitching PW to clients, agency adoption, pricing and project management. Community & Events — Meet-ups, conferences, PW-related events and community news. Jobs — Post your requirements here if you would like to hire an experienced ProcessWire developer.

You are a beast @maximus. The community is grateful to have you.

ProcessWire now has a native cli installer.

A big thanks to @@Mikel for flagging some of the items which form 1.19.1. Uninstall (fixed) The safety check that requires you to opt-in via `$config->MediaHubUninstall` in `site/config.php` was firing a beat too late. By the time the error showed, companion modules and their pages were already partially torn down. 1.19.1 hoists that check into a `hookBefore('Modules::uninstall')` so nothing is touched if the flag is missing. Also tightened companion module cleanup, admin page deletion, and crop-field removal so the whole flow is now atomic: succeeds completely or aborts cleanly. Import (fixed) Importing existing images on a non-MediaHub site (Setup → Media Hub → Import Existing) wasn't generating thumbnails. Bonus: retina `srcset` (1x/2x) and lazy loading on inputfield thumbnails. Icons (aligned) The library and the MediaHub inputfield each have view-mode toggles (grid, proportional or masonry, detail or list), but 1.19.0 used slightly different icon sets between the two surfaces. 1.19.1 aligns them on the same Lucide set. Labels bug (fixed) The new Labels section in 1.19.0 shared structural class names with Collections. This meant Labels were incorrectly displayed on some Collections filters nd menus. Labels and Collections are now strictly separate row types throughout the sidebar. Full changelog 1.19.1 blog post 1.19.1 download

That's f*****g insane! Excuse my french. There is a license or two I bought but never really ever digged into PageGrid. Maybe... this is a very good reason to do so. Great work you guys did here!

Hey everyone, MediaHub 1.19.0 is ready. That is good news for two reasons: you might find it useful, and you might be too distracted to wonder where 1.18 went. 🙂 Anywho, MH 1.19 has two main areas of improvement: the main MediaHub library screen (for editors) a new read API for galleries at scale (for developers). MediaHub Library changes A) Redesigned sidebar The sidebar has been redesigned and refined, with new shortcut filters at the top B) Favourites Mark any asset as a favourite (site-wide) and filter the library to favourites only. You can favourite from the asset detail page, the tile menu, or by dragging tiles onto Favourites in the sidebar. I am still debating Favourite/unfavourite vs star/unstar for the wording. Open to opinions there. C) Recent See your newest uploads and choose what “recent” means: last 24 hours, last 7 days, and other presets. More flexibility planned here soon. D) Filter breadcrumb type thing When you filter the library, a breadcrumb-style trail shows where you are (for example All Assets › Labels: Dublin). Clear a filter with one click instead of guessing how you narrowed the view. E) Labels If you use Labels for organisation, they are now a first-class shortcut in the sidebar, with counts per label. The section collapses when you do not need it. Drag assets onto a label row to assign in bulk; rename or delete from the row menu. F) Hover info on asset cards Hover over an asset to quickly see the title and filename without turning on Details view or opening the full asset page. This way, you get a really clean Library grid and still benefit from an in-betweeny view. G) Favourites (pt2) You can mark an asset as a favourite from the assets card/panel. Admittedly, 'unfavourite' is a little awkward-sounding. How does it read in German, Austrian, Bulgarian, Irish? I'll find out shortly. I might change this to star/unstar. MediaHub - drag and drop Another gap closed. You can drag and drop assets directly onto a MediaHub field. If you want to disable that function, you can do it on a field-by-field basis. You can also re-order assets as per the native input field. And if you're not a drag-and-drop fan, you can use the buttons instead. The MediaHub button will open your Library. Upload button opens your Finder. Uploads and drag-and-drop currently land new files in the root of the library in the background. I am planning more flexibility there soon. getRaw () API (beta) I'll be straight: I have not fully tested this myself on production sites yet, but I did run it through rigorous automated test scripts, and the performance benefits look promising. There is a more comprehensive write-up in the MediaHub docs. And I want to thank @David Karich for pushing this feature forward and flagging the original limitation in the first instance. Not strictly 1.19 related Search the docs The MediaHub documentation has a new search box in the sidebar Limitations and planned improvements Created a page with the known gaps in MediaHub. This is going to be a living (but rapidly shrinking) list as I move towards MediaHub 1.20.X.

Thanks Stefan. It’s really great to hear this. Looking forward to seeing your next site too. 🙂

Quick update if you've landed here. Media Hub now has its own forum and future updates can be found here.

Hi @ai_slop, Just wanted to confirm that PageimageSource is built specifically to work with Pageimage. I'm not 100% sure about your example above, but if the gist is to add the 'static' images to a Pageimages field to then be rendered using Pageimage:render(), which PageimageSource extends, then that should work fine. Cheers, Chris

@adrian reported an issue where the module is generating entries in the files-errors log. We see this too on sites that are using the module. It is intermittent, but when it happens there are normally a few entries at the same time: rename: Rename to pathname ($newName) that already exists: /site/assets/files/8936/thumbnail_1000_x_1000_px_32.768x635-srcset-hidpi.webp rename: Rename to pathname ($newName) that already exists: /site/assets/files/8936/thumbnail_1000_x_1000_px_32.768x635-srcset-hidpi.jpg rename: Rename to pathname ($newName) that already exists: /site/assets/files/8936/thumbnail_1000_x_1000_px_32.300x600-srcset-hidpi.webp rename: Rename to pathname ($newName) that already exists: /site/assets/files/8936/thumbnail_1000_x_1000_px_32.300x600-srcset-hidpi.jpg rename: Rename to pathname ($newName) that already exists: /site/assets/files/8936/thumbnail_1000_x_1000_px_32.265x530-srcset-hidpi.webp rename: Rename to pathname ($newName) that already exists: /site/assets/files/8936/thumbnail_1000_x_1000_px_32.265x530-srcset-hidpi.jpg I've taken a look but can't see what is causing it, and reviewing Pageimage::size() suggests that it shouldn't be happening, as this checks whether the file exists before calling WireFileTools::rename(), where the error log originates. The best I can come up with is that because the module is (usually) passing webpAdd as an option to its width() / height() / size() calls, this sets forceNew to true, and a second request happens before the variation generation completes on the first request, and it is this second request that ends up generating the log entry (the first request completes between the second one checking and then calling rename). I'm not sure if that's it though, I could easily be missing something. @ryan do you have any idea what might be happening here? Is this an error you've seen in other places? EDIT: Adrian has consulted Claude and posted the result in the GitHub issue thread here: https://github.com/nbcommunication/PageimageSource/issues/8#issuecomment-4612395594. It does suggest a race condition which would need to be handled by a change to Pageimage::size(). Cheers, Chris

I was able to upload the module on ProcessWire 3.0.46 by: Navigating to "/admin/module/edit?name=FileValidatorZip" Set Max files allowed in Zip to 3000 Set Max directory depth to 16 It would be nice if the default values could be increased
