The PW forum is great! I learned a lot but still have a long way to go to contribute more. At least I hope the other members can learn from some of my newbie mistakes. Congrats to all the PW community and a big thanks for sharing their knowledge.

Yep, basically what Martijn said. Go to Setup -> Fields -> Add New Field Add a name and label for your field and change the Type dropdown to File Under the Details tab you will see allowed filetypes and PDF is in the list - alter the list to suit you Change Maximum Files Allowed to however many you want - perhaps 1 in this case? Save your changes Add to your template That's it really.

Hi everyone! With Batcher you can batch-edit and create Pages in the Pw Admin. If you install this module, you get a new Page "Batcher" under Setup. Modules page: http://modules.processwire.com/modules/process-batcher/ Github: https://github.com/wanze/ProcessBatcher Editing How does it work? Search your pages with a selector. You can check if you want to include also hidden/unpublished pages with the filters. Select the pages you want to execute an action (the action only gets executed on "checked" pages). Select the action and if necessary, additional data like the new parent or the new template. Execute. Supported actions: Publish/Unpublish Pages Hide/Unhide Pages Lock/Unlock Pages Trash Pages Delete Pages Change Parent Change Template Batcher does the following permission checkings for the current user: Don't display pages that are not editable Remove Actions if the user doesn't have the permissions (page-delete, page-move, page-template, page-lock) Important notes: When changing a template, data in fields of the old template which are not assigned to the new template gets deleted. When changing the parent, the template of the new parent must accept the pages template as children. This is a setting in the template under "family". Creating How does it work? Select a parent where your new pages will be added as children Add as many pages as you want by clicking "add Page" Click "Create Pages" You must enter a title and choose a template. The name is optional: If left empty, Pw will generate this for you. Includes permission checking and Family template restrictions. This means in detail: The selected parent must accept children and their template The pages template must accept the parents template User needs the permission to add children to the selected parents template User needs the permission to create Pages for the chosen Template Batch-creating tips The chosen template and the statuses are always cloned from the last row. So if you need to add 30 pages with the same template, define it first and the click "add Page" - it'll make your life easier ;-) You can drag & drop the table rows should you want to change the order. The dragging looks ugly but it works. For the lazy dogs and keybord hackers among us, you can add a new row by pressing "ctrl+n". This works (at least in firefox) only if no input has focus. After adding a new row, the title input gets the focus. By pressing 3 times tab you arrive at the published-checkbox, here the short-cut works. Restrict Batcher for a user to only allow editing or creating Create permissions "batcher-edit" and/or "batcher-add". As soon those exists, the module checks if the current user has the permissions. If you only need batch creating, check out the following module by Soma: http://processwire.com/talk/topic/2138-process-tools-create-pages-wip/ Cheers

Hi folks This isn't a new concept, but since I use this on several sites and was getting frustrated by having to add the fields and put the CSS in the admin template's CSS file to have it overwritten on updates I thought I'd make it into a module where it should work regardless of which admin template you use and shouldn't be affected by updates since the CSS to hide the fieldset's container styles is now in a separate CSS file completely. Unfortunately I can't find the original topic where this concept was introduced (if anyone can find it, please link to it as I can't take credit for the idea), but essentially what the module does is create a left and right columns that are actually fieldsets, and you simply add the fieldsets to your template and place fields in each of the columns to suit yourself. Enough chit-chat, the screenshot below will explain it better: I think when this was originally discussed it was back before ryan had introduced field widths, but I think this still has a place for where you have differing heights of field (as per the ASMSelect field on the right of the shot) where using field widths would result in a space before the next row of fields. In fact, this works especially well on pages where you have small bits of information to enter and want to leave a larger left column for text editor, image and file fields. The beauty of now having variable width columns per-template now as well is that you can change the fieldsets from their set widths of 70% and 30% respectively to whatever suits your needs on a particular template. Download from the modules directory. Usage Download and install the module above Add admin_column_left and admin_column_right fieldsets to your template and put the fields in the relevant column fieldsets (Optional) change the field width for either column, taking care to leave 1% for a gap between the two columns (default is left column at 70%, right column at 29%) That's it!

Hi Guys! Earlier last week I was asking about Linode here.I was reading up on how to setup a Linode and was going to sign up. But whilst searching on Google, something caught my eye.... Digital Ocean. 20GB SSD 512MB Memory. https://www.digitalocean.com/ I signed up and it's been great playing around with my first box! They take paypal and so I just popped in $10 dollars and this will of course let me play for a couple of months. What a perfect way to learn! I installed Ubuntu 12.04 as this was what diogo suggested to me in the Linode thread and to give you an idea of what resources Digital Ocean offer, I've gotten this great Ubuntu listing link to give you an idea of what you can do / have some hand holding with... https://www.digitalocean.com/community/community_tags/ubuntu Hope this helps someone! Cheers guys!

Hi all, I'm a big fan of the Sublime Text 2 text editor and of course of huge fan of ProcessWire, so I went ahead and created a library of PW snippets to be used with the ST2 Snippet system. I followed the PW cheat sheet, and created Advanced and Basic versions. The Advanced version contains only those seen in the advanced mode of the cheat sheet, so if you want the full set, you'll want to get both Basic and Advanced. They are on GitHub here: https://github.com/evanmcd/SublimeProcessWireSnippetsBasic https://github.com/evanmcd/SublimeProcessWireSnippetsAdvanced I've just submitted the Advanced set for inclusion into Package Manager, so hopefully that will be added soon. See the README for more info. Any feedback welcomed

yep, safari has actually different issue. it doesn't show edit page at all. stable chrome allows saving, but doesn't close modal. I am able to reproduce both issues, so should be able to fix after I find time.

Greetings Everyone, I just completed building a site which serves as a companion to a book published by Rutgers University Press. The book is about Holocaust films. The author uncovered these films during extensive research in Russia, Israel, and elsewhere. This site is designed to be used as a college classroom resource. Teachers will go to the site, play movie clips for their class, then use the chapter summaries and discussion questions as further materials. For the video pages, I used the video.js player. Every movie page includes an .mp4 and a .webm file, in order to cover as many browsers (and tablets) as possible. The movies play in regular and full screen. Although the site is launched, I am still planning to build additional sections for "educator resources." I may also make some style changes in the coming weeks. Using ProcessWire made the building of this site very smooth! The author can easily log into the site, add or edit chapter text and discussion questions, and upload video files. She can also easily edit any of the static pages. This is a relatively simple site that will get a lot of practical use in college classrooms. Here it is: www.phantomholocaust.org Thank you, Matthew

Greetings. Thanks diogo for answering! Yes -- video.js. To answer your other question: the videos are hosted on my server. The client wanted to control where the videos are housed and seen, and there are some copyright demands. In the future, I may store videos on an Amazon S3 directory. I'm in the process of expanding this site. Will post again on this. Let me know if you have other questions and I'll be happy to share! Thanks, Matthew

Just looked at the video for Scout App - works well for Windows or Mac and the video shows it as simple to use for those of us who don't see why we should be doing any command line stuff and installing Ruby when there's a simpler (lazier) solution Though I also like the look of the others - Codekit is especially interesting for its other features at a low price tag!

One thing to note with the new theme is that in one module I'm working on that uses jQuery to watch certain elements for changes it no longer works because I assume some of the elements' parent containers have changed. Not difficult to fix, but might break a few modules is all I'm thinking. EDIT: To fix mine all I had to do was change references for .ui-widget-content to .ui-widget-content, .InputfieldContent

Thanks ozwim for the testing and bug reports. I'll see what I can do about getting these sorted out. I haven't tested with fieldsets at all yet. As for the error on line 734 - it is a language module related thing. I had seen that once before - should be easy enough to sort out. Good idea for adding details to the github readme on what's working etc - I have a feeling it will be an increasing list for a while, before it starts getting smaller, but I am sure we'll get there

Hey Martijn, I have made some substantial changes and pushed to github: Images are no longer deleted and repopulated by default - makes saving the page when there are no changes to the videos much faster as this module doesn't have to do much. Any images that are from videos that have been removed from the page are now deleted on a per video basis (ie if the URL is now gone) I have removed the option to disable image renaming - renaming proved essential to make the above two options work properly. I don't think this should be a problem. Renaming is handled slightly differently nowif you choose "First Available" for Which Images, it will name the image like so: videoID.jpg (eg: pmqzchx-mtc.jpg) if you choose "All Available" images it will append the name to the videoID: videoID-imageName.jpg (eg: pmqzchx-mtc-maxresdefault.jpg) I think this change will make it even easier to call the image from the API as you can directly match the image name to the video ID without knowing which one was grabbed. You just need to do a strtolower on the video ID as image names in PW must be lowercase. I think that's it, but definitely open to additions if you have ideas / code. EDIT: v0.1.3 limits module to page edit process only - prevents php notices on other admin pages.

Could you be so kind to show us what code you are using? Are the translation files available in your language?

From the source, looks like it's this one http://www.videojs.com/

Oh, that was so obvious, just hadn´t seen it. Thanks Thank you, I will try it soon!

Use inputfield files, not images.

Didn't test this one: hope it works. $home = $pages->get("/"); // all menu item exept home $page_array = $home->children(); // count all items in $p_array $count = count($page_array); // all items divided by 2 + rounding down to integer $position = floor($count/2); $insert_after_page = $page_array->eq($position); $page_array->insertAfter($home, $insert_after_page); then: foreach($page_array as $p) { do your funky stuff }

Yeah I did a hard refresh, clear cache, cleared any other modules out and still no go with being able to get past Submit on the modal box. In Safari (6.0.5) I just get a blank modal box.

sorry for this late reply. Thanks a lot for this links. I found a lot of useful things (as you expected, I guess) to understand PW. Although the ImagesManager and the Manipulator are really cool I decided to code something on my own - not because I don't like the modules but for a better understanding. So after some long nights I have my own admin pages which can manage uploads (with watermarks) and creates pages etc... The next step will be creating some templates. Perhaps I'll ask someone, something again thanks again, Chris

Just my opinion. Base font size currently is 10px/20px (body) and just set using #id's to 1.3em. I don't understand why it is has to be this way, as I'm long time used to working with 100%, font-size: 1em for starting point along with media-queries in em too. Some related reading I just found about this why this seems like a good practice: http://filamentgroup.com/lab/how_we_learned_to_leave_body_font_size_alone/ http://blog.cloudfour.com/the-ems-have-it-proportional-media-queries-ftw/ Defining font-size should not happen on containers but on html set to 100% and body on 1em as default first, and then on text elements. We don't think in pixels anymore. In this case this #content 1.3em is just scaling it up from the 10px/20px which seems ok but there's drawback as you in some cases can't overwrite it easily on inherited elements without using #content in the selector again. I'm also in general not very convinced about how the admin default css is built (but it get's better and better) and think it could be cleaned and improved a lot. There's a lot of redundant, unnecessary (and some not even having an effect at all!) definitions it even goes into performance rendering (even if very minimal). I think it need's a global scope rethink and rewrite/cleanup and I would be willing to help where I can. Sorry I'm not so good at explaining and communicate those things with text and even so more not in my mother language. - Desing wise I think colors are important, (I just think not as many as it has now, I count over 10!)) but good UI design is much about font type, spacings, and how elements are presented. Good UI design doesn't distract and confuse, I can't currently say that this theme does solve anything from the default previous theme. Colors should be used to emphasize certain things and elements not brand it. My opinion. People I know that don't like PW aren't saying colors, but general UI design and style not being modern. And that comes down to how big a font is and how much spacing it has.

@Raymond: Edit your post (the one above mine), click full editor (or something) then a under the textarea there's an upload function.

@adamspruijt, yes please submit any feedback you'd like, that's what this thread is for. I would just request that any feedback be based on actual use/testing the theme itself rather than the screenshots, as the screenshots are fairly limited in scope relative to the theme. We may have to wait to act on some of the feedback until we approach the bigger admin-theme project in the future, but all feedback is appreciated either way. For instance, if there is a consensus that the page list actions are too small, I'll be glad to increase the default size of them. That's also a fairly simple thing to do. Chances are that the value in your session was already set to something, and the session value overrides the $config value. To resolve that, just set your session value to match the $config value, or clear out the session value by specifying an unknown color theme. /processwire/?colors=classic /processwire/?colors=poopst I'm not sure that I like the sound of that, but if you mean post a color theme file here that's great.

there are also some applications for the fancy sass, scss, compass, less or coffescript stuff... http://incident57.com/codekit/ http://mhs.github.io/scout-app/ http://koala-app.com

A couple small updates today to InputfieldImage and InputfieldFile, on the dev branch. You can now double-click the trash icon associated with a file/image, and it will select (or unselect) all files/images for deletion. The image inputfield now has a grid-view option. To switch to it, click the grid icon seen in the upper right corner of the field. This mode makes it more convenient to sort lots of images. Below are screenshots of the regular view and the grid view. You can toggle between them just by clicking the icon. While these screenshots use the development admin theme, this all works in the regular/old admin theme as well (and 3rd party admin themes I'm assuming too). Another update to mention is something sort of like the HelperFieldLinks module, but not quite as comprehensive. This works only in the development admin theme. If you hover the little down pointing angle on the far right of the Inputfield, it will append the field's name to the label. This is helpful for instantly telling what the field's name is from the API side. In this screenshot the "agent_files" part you see in the label appears only when that icon on the right is hovered.

Hello Matthew, Simple but beautiful page! it would be really nice and helpful to offer this or a similar profile to download. I think this will help beginners quickly and the popularity of this magnificent system is increasing rapidly. THANK YOU

Hi ryan, hi PW Community. no worry about the 500th member when i saw that right at my registration i was the 501... But the main point is that i´m glad to be here !! Thanks Ralf ps: i´ve got my first post 8)

Hmm.. number=0 actually chooses pages that have no value at all (even if number is integer field). Only way that I have found to choose number fields that have explicitly set 0 as their value is number>-1, number<1 So it seems that 0 is universal and meaning more like a NULL there.
