This week we look at two new versions on the dev branch and a lot of updates. These include new page traversal methods, page list customization options, improved empty trash process, two factor authentication improvements, improvements to the profile editor, and more– https://processwire.com/blog/posts/processwire-3.0.115-and-3.0.116-core-updates/

Also just got this working, all generated automatically from the currently PW install, so it's always up-to-date. Do you guys think you'd make use of this?

Thanks @NorbertH issue has been fixed.

Yeah, already done on my dev copy - all PW variables are automatically added to the autocomplete. Agreed - I am working on this - I don't necessarily want to disable php autocompletions completely, but trying to tweak the triggering so it's not invasive when you don't want it.

Thanks for the updates Ryan! For the children counts in Page List, would you please consider adding hookable methods that return $numChildren and $numTotal? That would allow the option for devs to add a hook to correct those counts in case some descendant pages are not listable by some roles. Thanks. Also, not sure if this is deliberate but I notice the new child count options don't take effect in the Pages > Tree flyout menu.

Nice one @bernhard, A couple of thoughts: Always safer to deal with IDs rather than names. If I have a float field called 'price' and tomorrow I decide to change its name to 'unit_price', MathParser code would not find it (unless of course one is using the autoload feature, in which case it might still throw the warning about field does not exist). The superuser would be forced to change the config. I've noticed assets (MathParser.js, MathParser.css and math.js) are loaded in all Page Edits, even in ones where it is not required or where there are no compatible fields. Maybe there's no way to get around this? We started on the premise that we are lazy ?. So why not take lazy to its logical conclusion? Below, I present lazy max! I've changed the module config textarea inputs to ASM Selects. The descriptions are just dummy text. Only compatible fields (float, integer, decimal [do we have a Fieldtype like this?]) are listed for selection. I don't have a Gitlab account, so I've attached a zip file with the php files to this post. Having said above. The module did not work for me (even before the changes I made). Shouldn't it be auto-triggering? Demo MathParser-kongondo-edits.zip

DEPRECATED - see the new version here: Brand new module that I've built because I'm too lazy to always open the calculator when I have to do some calculations (like vat calculations etc): It adds some magic to FieldtypeDecimal, FieldtypeFloat and FieldtypeInteger fieldtypes. Of course you can define which fields you want to extend: https://github.com/BernhardBaumrock/MathParser Any ideas or contributions are welcome. What do you think about the name? What do you think about the styling?

Because it is simply amazing, has an improved user experience, is more lightweight, better looking and has nicer features than version 4. Almost everybody will profit. Please consider voting at github for this feature: https://github.com/processwire/processwire-requests/issues/217

☑️ Done

@Zeka, thanks for the hint. I gave it a shot some minutes ago and it does not work either. I dived deeper now. /wire/core/Page.php contains a method $page->set($key, $value): case 'parent': case 'parent_id': if(is_object($value) && $value instanceof Page) { // ok $this->setParent($value); } else if($value && !$this->_parent && ($key == 'parent_id' || is_int($value) || (is_string($value) && ctype_digit("$value")))) { // store only parent ID so that parent is lazy loaded, // but only if parent hasn't already been previously loaded $this->_parent_id = (int) $value; } else if($value && (is_string($value) || is_int($value))) { $value = $this->_pages('get', $value); $this->setParent($value); } break; So there is definitely support for $page->set('parent', $id) here. Proof: the following works: $page->set('parent', 3); $page->save(); In the head of /wire/core/Page.php is a definition of $settings: /** * Page-specific settings which are either saved in pages table, or generated at runtime. * * @var array * */ protected $settings = array( 'id' => 0, 'name' => '', 'status' => 1, 'numChildren' => 0, 'sort' => -1, 'sortfield' => 'sort', 'modified_users_id' => 0, 'created_users_id' => 0, 'created' => 0, 'modified' => 0, 'published' => 0, ); I think 'parent' is missing here. I added it and tried again - now this works: $page->setAndSave('parent', 3); So I guess it's a bug.

Good point. Chat apps for peer support can be a very distracting thing. I use IRC to collaboratively work on FOSS. If there was a big group of people working on PW core every day, real-time chat would be more crucial.

Sure we do, not yet in the core though... ? One can give a thumbs-up over here to support the request of adding it to the core: https://github.com/processwire/processwire-requests/issues/126 EDIT: ot here, but Padloper 2 should utilize FiledtypeDecimal, for example prices should be of this type. There are lots of currencies where a price like 100,000,000.00 is quite possible....

This is now solved: emptying the trash now uses transactions, if available and I made a PR to BCE which makes it use transactions.

"parent" is not the name of a field. If you are trying to set the parent of the page you'll need to do this: $page->parent = 'x'; $page->save();

Maybe using the Fieldtype selector in the module autoload setting?? Though I guess that limits the compatibility minimum version. type=FieldtypeInteger|FiledtypeDecimal

This seems to have been caused by a database issue. It's been resolved,

Seems the version is not bumped to 3.0.116.

@cosmicsafari - please check out my fork of the AssistedURL module: https://github.com/adrianbj/processwire-fieldtype-assisted-url It stores links as IDs so links are updated if names are changed.

https://trix-editor.org/

Lucky us! It has become PW 3.0.116 "Spacy ads" instead

@Robin S Thanks for your response - this has now been fixed: https://github.com/processwire/processwire-issues/issues/716#issuecomment-427372423

Moderators Note Just a quick update. We've consulted and agreed that the topic remain locked as per the reasons expressed by @horst above. Thanks.

When Trying to install i get this error : It seems he is trying to load acfConfig.php while the file is called AcfConfig.php .

I really love your Theme but I don't know if it is right to use it because the Uikit version you use, is outdated. Right now there is a RC17 version. Also I think Ryan made some additions in the AdminThemeUikit, do you plan to be on par, if something changes or is added?
