Last week I told you how I was working on a getting a new Stripe payment method working with FormBuilder… and I’m still working on it. That wasn’t exactly the plan. Stripe isn’t quite as easy to work with as it used to be, or maybe Stripe thinks I’m not as easy to work with as before. Either way, I’m learning, and it’s been a good opportunity to expand FormBuilder with its own class for plugin “action” modules. Hopefully some of this work on the Stripe side can apply for other payment methods, or any type of action you’d want to take with a form submission. It’s probably going to take another week or so before this module is ready to release in the FormBuilder board, but it’s going to be built well and accompany a new version of FormBuilder too (that supports these plugin actions by way of PW modules). Having these actions as ProcessWire modules opens up new doors for FormBuilder, and I may even move some of the built-in actions (like saving to Google Sheets) into this type of module, which would be nice for hooks and maintainability. There’s not a lot to report on the core side this week. There are a few commits and improvements, but not yet enough where I’m ready to bump the version to 3.0.168. One small but useful improvement is that handling of selector queries for words with apostrophes has been improved. One of my clients noticed they were having trouble with their site search engine matching terms like “Alpe d’Huez” and “L’estello”, and so our page finding engine has been improved to narrow them down with the fulltext engine and then find the exact matches with regular expression queries. This improvement enhances most of the partial text matching operators. It also solves the issue of there being different kinds of apostrophes (ascii straight vs utf-8 curly), among other things. Overall the core is running running very smoothly on the dev branch, so I’m thinking we may try and do another merge to master before 3.0.170. Thanks for reading and have a great weekend!

Yeah, we all struggle with that sometimes. ? I did a bit of experimenting and here's another way the language options can be removed from the title field: // Single-language title field for "test-template" at Page Add $wire->addHookAfter('ProcessPageAdd::getAllowedTemplates', function(HookEvent $event) { $tpls = $event->return; $t = $event->wire()->templates->get('test-template'); if(isset($tpls[$t->id])) $tpls[$t->id]->noLang = 1; $event->return = $tpls; }); // Single-language title field for "test-template" at Page Edit $wire->addHookAfter('ProcessPageEdit::buildFormContent', function(HookEvent $event) { /** @var InputfieldForm $form */ $form = $event->return; $page = $event->object->getPage(); if($page->template == 'test-template') { $title = $form->getChildByName('title'); if($title) $title->useLanguages = false; } });

I might be misunderstanding something (I don't normally work on multi-language sites), but isn't it optional to enter page titles in any language other than the default? The user isn't forced to add a title in all enabled languages as far as I can see. So it seems like it's a question of user education more than anything else, the lesson being "only create page titles in languages that you need", which is really part of a more basic general lesson that any CMS user must learn: "only fill out fields that you have information for".

Haha great, and sorry - I completely forgot the issue due some spontaneous new ProcessWire side project for the guest registration in Vienna/Lower Austria: https://www.heute.at/s/cowirtat-hilft-bei-der-registrierung-im-gasthaus-100106087

The _x function is part of ProcessWire's translation system – using it is good practice, because it allows you to change hard-coded strings (such as the language code) through the backend without touching the code, and translate them to multiple languages for multi-language sites. You're probably just missing a translation. Go to Setup -> Languages -> Portugese (might also be default depending on your language setup), then under "Site Translation Files" check if the main.php is already listed, otherwise select it through "Find files to translate". Add the correct language code there and it should appear in your HTML!

It was Kongondo doing maintenance release to old one. But I know Kongondo is working hard to get v2 released.

Hi, With the deprecation of Instagram's API and therefore the end of the Instagram Feed module, I've developed a replacement module which uses the Instagram Basic Display API: https://github.com/nbcommunication/InstagramBasicDisplayApi To use this module you'll need: ProcessWire >= 2.7 A Facebook Developer account Access to the Instagram user account you wish to use Prior to installation, you'll need to create a Facebook app. The app you will create uses the User Token Generator for authentication - it does not need to be submitted for App Review (and therefore stays in Development mode). The README contains full instructions on how to create and set up the app and also how to use the module. The primary reason for this module's development was to retain functionality on existing websites that use the Instagram Feed module. To assist with upgrading, this module replicates some methods provided by Instagram Feed. I've already upgraded a couple of sites and it was quick and painless ? Cheers, Chris

NOTE: This thread originally started in the Pub section of the forum. Since we moved it into the Plugin/Modules section I edited this post to meet the guidelines but also left the original content so that the replies can make sense. ProcessGraphQL ProcessGraphQL seamlessly integrates to your ProcessWire web app and allows you to serve the GraphQL api of your existing content. You don't need to apply changes to your content or it's structure. Just choose what you want to serve via GraphQL and your API is ready. Warning: The module supports PHP version >= 5.5 and ProcessWire version >= 3. Links: Zip Download Github Repo ScreenCast PW modules Page Please refer to the Readme to learn more about how to use the module. Original post starts here... Hi Everyone! I became very interested in this GraphQL thing lately and decided to learn a bit about it. And what is the better way of learning a new thing than making a ProcessWire module out of it! For those who are wondering what GraphQL is, in short, it is an alternative to REST. I couldn't find the thread but I remember that Ryan was not very happy with the REST and did not see much value in it. He offered his own AJAX API instead, but it doesn't seem to be supported much by him, and was never published to official modules directory. While ProcessWire's API is already amazing and allows you to quickly serve your content in any format with less than ten lines of code, I think it might be convenient to install a module and have JSON access to all of your content instantly. Especially this could be useful for developers that use ProcessWire as a framework instead of CMS. GraphQL is much more flexible than REST. In fact you can build queries in GraphQL with the same patterns you do with ProcessWire API. Ok, Ok. Enough talk. Here is what the module does after just installing it into skyscrapers profile. It supports filtering via ProcessWire selectors and complex fields like FieldtypeImage or FieldtypePage. See more demo here The module is ready to be used, but there are lots of things could be added to it. Like supporting any type of fields via third party modules, authentication, permissions on field level, optimization and so on. I would love to continue to develop it further if I would only know that there is an interest in it. It would be great to hear some feedback from you. I did not open a thread in modules section of the forum because I wanted to be sure there is interest in it first. You can install and learn about it more from it's repository. It should work with PHP >=5.5 and ProcessWire 3.x.x. The support for 2.x.x version is not planned yet. Please open an issue if you find bugs or you want some features added in issue tracker. Or you can share your experience with the module here in this thread.

Hi everyone, Here's a little module that allows you to force users to change their password on their first login, or at any time if you manually force it. http://modules.processwire.com/modules/password-force-change/ https://github.com/adrianbj/PasswordForceChange Key Features During install it creates a new checkbox field in the user template, "force_passwd_change". Automatic checking of this checkbox when creating a new user is determined by the "Automatic Force Change" module config setting. When a user logs in for the first time (or if you have manually checked that field for an existing user), they will be warned that they have to change their password and they'll be automatically redirected to their profile page. They must change their password to something new - they are not allowed to re-enter their existing password. Bulk "Set All Users" option to at any time, force all users (by selected roles) to change their password. Hopefully some of you will find it useful and please let me know if you have any suggested changes/enhancements. PS I used the new info.json way of defining the module details, so it requires PW 2.4.3+

@ngrmm https://processwire.com/talk/topic/1536-module-video-embed-for-youtubevimeo-textformattervideoembed/?do=findComment&comment=167329 or https://processwire.com/talk/topic/23528-lite-youtube-embed-module/ or https://processwire.com/talk/topic/11160-textformattervideoembedoptions/ (which has a privacy option which sets it to the nocookie URL). I would go with the 2nd or 3rd option.

Here's another... I am not sure if in your case the slowness is due to the query itself or the page objects that have to be created after the find. If the latter, you can tell ProcessWire not to return page objects. You can then work with arrays as it seems your main interest are not the items themselves but their IDs and the quantities. Just a quick thought..

That sounds ... bad ? Are you sure there isn't a more convenient way to do this in Snipcart? Anyway, as far as I can tell your solution is producing the correct result, so the only problem is the memory consumption. You could try to build the JSON on the fly instead of pushing everything on one big array. That is, open a file handle, encode individual lines in your recursive function and write them directly to the file. Might be a bit slower, but wouldn't require holding all combinations in memory. Though you gotta take care to have valid JSON in the end, i.e. no trailing comma for the last line and stuff like that.

Here's how I managed to do this by hook or crook ?. Summary Hooks alone are not enough We still need to be able to switch templates and view/enable languages if those templates support languages We need to be able to do this both during page creation and post-creation We need CSS, JavaScript and Hooks We use hooks to: (a) deactivate non-default languages (b) to pass an array of template IDs that we designate as mono-lingual We use CSS to hide unrequired language tabs, inputs and labels We use JavaScript to add/remove 'hide' classes as needed We need to load the CSS and JavaScript in the admin. There are various ways to do this. I've simply added them via templates/admin.php You'll notice some brief FOUC, but they are not major and can probably be sorted out using CSS and JavaScript. I've left in some example code in the CSS (see below) Code CSS JavaScript PHP /site/templates/admin.php /site/ready.php Other approaches, anyone? Demo

Hey folks! Just wanted to mention that ProcessRedirects 2.0.0 is now out. As far as I can tell it should fix most of the issues that have been reported here, as well as those reported via GitHub. This is a major update and the module now requires ProcessWire 3.0.112+ and PHP 7.1+, so please keep that in mind if and when updating ? Here's a kind-of-a-changelog for this release from the PR that got merged earlier today: In case anyone is wondering why update this module now even though we already have a very powerful alternative (Jumplinks), the thing is that this module still serves a purpose: it's super easy to use, and does what it needs to do — no more, no less. Powerful features can be a double-edged sword, as they also tend to increase complexity, at least to some extent. When it comes to "power users", Jumplinks is by far a superior tool, but for regular content editors who just need the occasional shortlink (or something similar), this module is often just the right fit. Hope that makes sense. Anyway, I still have some relatively minor additions in mind that I'd like to add to the module (assuming that Antti thinks they are a good fit), but again, for the most part this module already does what it needs to. Power users will likely feel more at home with Jumplinks ? If you find a bug or have a feature in mind that this module really needs to have, feel free to open an issue at the GitHub repository. Thanks!

ProcessWire 3.0.167 is the newest version on the dev branch and contains the updates mentioned last week, as well as the following: Improvements and optimizations to several database fulltext index-based text-searching operators (such as *=, ~=, *+=, ~+=) so that they can better match words too short to index, as well as many stopwords. (code changes) New $input->queryStringClean() method is like the existing $input->queryString() method except that it enables you to get a cleaned up version according to rules you specify in an $options argument. I added this method primarily because it’s something I need in the core for some planned updates. But it’s in the public API because I thought it might be useful for some other cases as well. Kind of technical, but some minor improvements to the $sanitizer array methods were made so that they can now support associative arrays with a ‘keySanitizer’ option that lets you specify which sanitizer method to clean up array indexes/keys. The $sanitizer->validateFile() method was rewritten and improved plus new ‘dryrun’ and ‘getArray’ options were added. The core file and image fields have been updated with the ability to require (rather than just utilize) a FileValidatorModule for certain file upload extensions. This was motivated by SVG files being increasingly problematic (or at least my understanding of them) because they can contain the kind of bad stuff that regular markup can (scripts, loading external assets, etc.). But since SVG files are used by many just like the bitmap image formats (JPG, GIF, PNG, etc.) exploits can spread quite easily and unknowingly. I’m not aware of that ever occurring in a ProcessWire site, but it’s one of those things that strikes me as being an inevitable problem for any website (on any software) that has regular SVG uploads. ProcessWire doesn’t allow SVG file uploads by default, but you can manually add “SVG” to your allowed upload extensions for any file/image field… and from what I understand now, a lot of people are doing this—using SVG files not just during development, but as an image format that their clients upload too. The usual protections of having a trusted user admin environment don’t help much here. That’s because what matters is not whether the uploading user is trusted or not, but whether the source of the SVG is trusted. And that’s something we have no control over. It seems apparent the core could provide some extra help and guidance in this area. So ProcessWire now requires you install the FileValidatorSvgSanitizer module if you want to have SVG uploads, OR you can check a box in the file/image field settings to whitelist the extension (acknowledging you understand the risks). Now you could manually add HTML or JS as allowed upload extensions to a files field as well— and if you are rendering the resulting HTML markup or JS directly in the code of your website, then the same risks would be present as with SVG. But the risks seem obvious for doing this with HTML or JS files. Plus, why would someone do that with HTML or JS files unless for some very specific development purpose? I think it’s unlikely any of us are running websites where clients might be downloading HTML or JS files from other sources and uploading them into the website. And even further unlikely that we’d written the site’s code to include the contents of those files among the site's markup. Whereas, this is essentially what happens with SVG files, from what I understand. As I’ve come to learn this week, it’s even quite common to do this (maybe I’m late to the party). Given the above, this week I rebuilt the existing FileValidatorSvgSanitizer module from the ground up, so that it now uses a better/newer SVG sanitization library found by Adrian. I’d suggest installing the module if you are supporting SVG uploads in your site. It seems to do a nice job of cleaning the harmful stuff out of SVG files. I’m not aware of anything it can miss, but I’d still advise some caution with SVG file uploads even if you have the module installed. If you currently allow SVG file uploads but don’t really need them, just remove SVG as an upload option, as that’s still the safest bet. That’s essentially what the current dev branch version does: if you’ve added SVG as an allowed upload extension, it’ll disable it until you decide if you need it; and if you do, then install the sanitizer module or whitelist the extension. I know not everyone is going to like that, but it seems like it’s the right and safe thing to do; as well as a good strategy going forward for any other file formats with similar concerns. When our next master version arrives, it’ll be in the upgrade instructions as well. The core has been updated so that it can support the same means for any other file formats we come across in the future that might be problematic in similar ways. That’s everything I can remember that’s new to 3.0.167. Thanks for reading and have a great weekend!

The spec for http 1.1 (rfc 7231) only specifies the behaviour of the location header for http 201 and 3xx. I'm not sure it's a good idea to depend on undocumented behaviour of not setting a proper 3xx status code. Especially as this seems to happen even when explicitly calling: $session->redirect($url, 302); This not setting a http status code is waiting to cause people trouble. One isn't always dealing with browsers, which are usually quite forgiving.

I played around with multi-instances and found out that we currently (PW 3.0.163) are not able to use multiple instances when more then one site has set $config->useFunctionsAPI (in site/config.php) to true! Then I saw that, (when $config->useFunctionsAPI was set to false) in all instances $config->version returned the same version, that from the master instance. So, first I was a bit confused, but then I thought that this may have to do with the early step when PW processes/build the $config. And indeed, if I set in all site/config.php files the $config->useFunctionsAPI to false, and then in all site/init.php files to true, everything is working fine. Now we can use our sites with the functions API, and we can load as many multiple instances in parallel we want. ? TL;DR site/init.php /** * FOR BETTER SUPPORT OF MULTIINSTANCES, WE ENABLE $config->useFunctionsAPI HERE, * INSTEAD OF THE site/config.php FILE: */ $wire->config->useFunctionsAPI = true; Bootstrapping three different instances, in first step each of them in a single environment: <?php namespace ProcessWire; if(!defined('PW_MASTER_PATH')) define('PW_MASTER_PATH', 'E:/laragon/www/hwm/'); if(!defined('PW_MASTER_HTTPURL')) define('PW_MASTER_HTTPURL', 'https://hwm.local/'); // bootstrap ProcessWire instance site1 (3.0.163) require_once(PW_MASTER_PATH . 'index.php'); mvd([ 'httpurl' => $wire->wire('pages')->get(1)->httpURL, 'instanceNum' => $wire->getInstanceNum(), 'config->version' => $wire->wire('config')->version, 'useFunctionsAPI' => $wire->wire('config')->useFunctionsAPI ]); When running all three in a multi instance environment, they load fine, (no compile error), all with the use for the functions API enabled: <?php namespace ProcessWire; if(!defined('PW_MASTER_PATH')) define('PW_MASTER_PATH', 'E:/laragon/www/hwm/'); if(!defined('PW_MASTER_HTTPURL')) define('PW_MASTER_HTTPURL', 'https://hwm.local/'); if(!defined('PW_SITE2_PATH')) define('PW_SITE2_PATH', 'E:/laragon/www/hwm2/'); if(!defined('PW_SITE2_HTTPURL')) define('PW_SITE2_HTTPURL', 'https://hwm2.local/'); if(!defined('PW_SITE3_PATH')) define('PW_SITE3_PATH', 'E:/laragon/www/hwm3/'); if(!defined('PW_SITE3_HTTPURL')) define('PW_SITE3_HTTPURL', 'https://hwm3.local/'); // bootstrap ProcessWire master instance (3.0.163) require_once(PW_MASTER_PATH . 'index.php'); mvd([ 'httpurl' => $wire->wire('pages')->get(1)->httpURL, 'instanceNum' => $wire->getInstanceNum(), 'config->version' => $wire->wire('config')->version, 'useFunctionsAPI' => $wire->wire('config')->useFunctionsAPI ]); // create a secondary instance from master (3.0.163) $wire = new \ProcessWire\ProcessWire(PW_MASTER_PATH); mvd([ 'httpurl' => $wire->wire('pages')->get(1)->httpURL, 'instanceNum' => $wire->getInstanceNum(), 'config->version' => $wire->wire('config')->version, 'useFunctionsAPI' => $wire->wire('config')->useFunctionsAPI ]); // create instance of a second site (3.0.162) $site2 = new ProcessWire(PW_SITE2_PATH, PW_SITE2_HTTPURL); mvd([ 'httpurl' => $site2->wire('pages')->get(1)->httpURL, 'instanceNum' => $site2->getInstanceNum(), 'config->version' => $site2->wire('config')->version, 'useFunctionsAPI' => $site2->wire('config')->useFunctionsAPI ]); // create instance of a third site (3.0.152) $site3 = new ProcessWire(PW_SITE3_PATH, PW_SITE3_HTTPURL); mvd([ 'httpurl' => $site3->wire('pages')->get(1)->httpURL, 'instanceNum' => $site3->getInstanceNum(), 'config->version' => $site3->wire('config')->version, 'useFunctionsAPI' => $site3->wire('config')->useFunctionsAPI ]);

Hello, Upon reading these articles https://dev.to/maxlaboisson/an-introduction-to-api-first-cms-with-directus-open-source-headless-cms-9f6 https://snipcart.com/blog/jamstack-clients-static-site-cms I was thinking that PW can be used for a Jamstack or Headless CMS with no changes at all. You can easily create REST Api with PW or use the GraphQL module https://github.com/dadish/ProcessGraphQL So ProcessWire is an Open Source Headless CMS since 2010

We recently relaunched the website of IBIS Backwaren, a brand for international pastries and bakery products. Concept, design and implementation by schwarzdesign, built with ProcessWire. As always, we aimed to deliver a clean website design with a focus on content and fast loading times. Here's a list of modules used on this site, followed by a couple of interesting features included. The site is bilingual, though currently only the German version is available. The English version will be released at a later date. ProFields FormBuilder WireMailSMTP Cache Control MarkupSitemap Hanna Code Automatically link page titles Unique image variations Product database and product collections The website features a product database with all the products IBIS distributes. The product template is rather extensive, including fields for product categories and attributes, nutrition facts, certifications etc. We make heavy use of page reference fields, e.g. for product categories and attributes such as vegan or gluten-free products. Nutrition facts are stored in a Textareas field. There are multiple ways for visitors to explore products. One is a classic product finder with filters for product category and attributes. But there are also individual product collections (Produktwelten) which can be regularly updated by the client. Product collections include a list of related products. This allows the marketing department to quickly set up targeted landing pages. Recipes and custom forms Another approach to marketing and activating fans is the recipe section. Each recipe uses at least one IBIS product to give visitors some ideas. Of course, recipes and products are cross-linked to allow for exploration and discovery. There's a recipe submission form which allows you visitors to send in their own recipes, as well as a couple of other forms. All forms on the site are built with the Form Builder module. We made use of the form submissions to pages feature, which automatically creates a new (unpublished) page for new recipe submissions. Those can be reviewed by the staff and published directly. We also use a hook to automatically transform the plaintext fields for ingredients and instructions into HTML lists. Multi-brand IBIS uses different brands for different sets of products. Some landing pages as well as the gluten-free selection are branded differently. To accomodate this, we create an additional "brand" template with an override for the default logo. Each page has a brand selection field to allow switching the logo / branding for that page. Since brands are represented by normal pages, then client can create additional brands on their own.

I did the same for the TextformatterVideoEmbed module. Also added an option to it, if you want to use the nocookie domain or not.

The module does not support this, but you could edit the module file, adding the following line here: $embedCode = str_replace('youtube.com', 'youtube-nocookie.com', $embedCode); If you later update the module the change would be overwritten and you would have to redo it.

Anyone out there who can give a hint??? Thanks!

Is there a way to use the youtube nocookie url like https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/XYZ123 This would be a nice feature in times of the european GDPR ...
