I took @bcartier's code from this post and made a configurable module from it. EDIT: to make it work, you need to follow 2 steps (thanks to @PWaddict for pointing it out): Add a page name to the default language on the Home page On Languages Support - Page Names module at "Default language homepage URL is same as root URL?" select "No - Root URL performs a redirect to: /name/" You can find the module attached. I can confirm that the redirection to a non-default language works on PW 3.0.172 DefaultFrontendLanguage.zip

Hi all, The forums have just had a fairly major upgrade - everything seems brighter and cleaner though as always if you spot any areas we may have missed that don't look quite right (broken rather than different), please comment here.

Highly recommend Gumroad for selling this. It takes care of all sales tax nightmares and can automatically generate a license key per sale. Personally I wouldn't try adding license key checking into scriptable code (like PHP) as people who are going to cheat you are just going to edit the code to remove the check anyway, or just have it return true etc. Where the key can come in useful is for access to value-added features like support, so you ask "What's your license key" as part of the user's access to your support mechanism (forums/email etc)

Basically, the simplest solution, for example, is to use something similar to paypal's 'buy now' buttons; one for each license type. It really doesn't matter about a specific license ID unless you want to identify a particular user when they request support, etc., and then you can pass a unique ID which is returned with the transaction confirmation. In this example, you don't need to mess with any type of license key entry in your module; The customer just downloads the module from an email link. You insert the 'transaction id' in the email for their records that you can compare with your database entry at some future date. I know my replies seem somewhat 'negative' toward a viable solution and I apologize for that. On a positive note, one method I used many years ago was to keep certain 'key' functions on the server. The program would pass the license key and specific data to be processed on the server. If the license was valid, then the result was returned to the program for further processing. Again, this requires a 'phone home' procedure, which most people, including myself, don't really like.

That is a question I've been working on since the mid 90s. There is no simple solution when dealing with publicly viewable code. Generating a unique key is straightforward (eg, GUID, etc.). Validating the key requires a 'phone home' procedure, whether you do it on install or every time the code is executed is a choice to make. The problem lies with controlling the source code execution based on that validation. It is not possible to accomplish that with publicly viewable code.

Hi folks, Iam working on a rather complex pagebuilder module, which took a lot of time to build. Now the module is almost ready and my plan is to release it as a commercial module at some point. This will help me to support the module in the future as well as cover some of the time/costs it took to make it. There will be 3 licenses: - Single website – 3 websites – 10 websites To protect the module from being used without a license, Iam looking for a simple way to generate a license key, that is tied to a domain. It don't has to be the most secure methode. If possible it will work without making a connection to an external server to check the key? I have no experience with this but I picture it may work like this: 1. When the user buys the module, he/she needs to enter a domain, or multiple domains (based on the license). 2. The user can download the module and gets a license key (generated based on the domains entered?) 3. After installing the module in the backend, the user needs to enter the license key 4. The module checks if the url matches the key and grant/denies acess. Another idea might be to use the userAuthSalt stored in the config file of PW to generate the key. But then the key needs to be generated after the module is installed. How would you generate the license key?

Yes, you can set all of Tracy's settings as $config options. For exporting settings, use: https://processwire.com/modules/module-settings-import-export/ This post explains it all: https://processwire.com/talk/topic/5693-new-module-type-wiremail/?do=findComment&comment=172428

Thank you @Pete for your work on the forum.

Open your dev tools and inspect the active element. Which CSS classes does it have? If it doesn't have "page-item active" then something is wrong. If it has these classes, then maybe you need to use some different code for the bootstrap styling. Maybe provide the HTML code, that is outputted in dev tools, so we can help you more

Great question! I am also interested. I've been browsing the Forum with Dark Reader for years but a native solution is usually better.

Thank you, @Pete for maintaining the forum! Just a question not only out of curiosity but... does this forum software support/provide a native dark theme?

Hey @Pete! Not sure if this has changed recently, but just noticed that http://processwire.com/talk/ works as well. Should/could this redirect to the HTTPS version instead? Unrelated note regarding moderator actions: I'm pretty sure that flagging someone as a spammer used to hide their posts. Doesn't seem to work that way anymore. Also I seem to recall there being some sort of limit to what new users can post. Am I wrong or did something change regarding this/these? ?

This looks like the .htaccess file found from /site/. You should check the one in your websites root directory (one folder above /site/) instead. As @wbmnfktr mentioned, similar issues have been covered here before. This one could be related (though I'm kind of guessing here). It's a bit old so there have been some changes to the root .htaccess file since then as well:

Exactly. That is the crux of the problem here. It's not any different than the other module developers here selling pro versions. Unscrupulous people will always find a way to circumvent licensing. The best you can do is trust the customer to honor your license models. You save the license id, transaction id, or whatever id for future reference. It could be in a database or a spreadsheet so that any inquiries from a customer can be checked against that database for validity.

@PWaddict Happy to help. SimpleContactForm and FlyDev's ReCaptcha did all the real work.

Ah, I didn't notice which forum you'd posted this in! I'm pleased you find the answer.

Hi @flydev ?? I just installed the module and I'm getting this PHP Notice: Notice: Undefined index: data_badge in C:\laragon\www\mysite\site\assets\cache\FileCompiler\site\modules\MarkupGoogleRecaptcha\MarkupGoogleRecaptcha.module on line 269 Replacing the 269 line with this, fixes the issue: if(isset($data['data_badge'])) $f->attr('value', $data['data_badge']);

Just a thought- have you tried setEncodeEntities(false) before writing the rows?

@PWaddict Yes, I've got it working. I made a simple InputField that works with FlyDev's MarkupGoogleRecaptcha module so the reCaptcha can be added to the SimpleContactForm. Then, using the info on the SFC instructions page, I added the following hood to my ready.php file. I've attached the zip file of my field type if you want to take a look. I'm no expert, but I based it on another simple module. $this->addHookBefore('SimpleContactForm::processValidation', function(HookEvent $event) { $form = $event->arguments(0); $recaptcha = $form->get('recaptcha'); if (!$this->input->post->{'g-recaptcha-response'}) { // attach an error to the field $recaptcha->error(__('You didn\'t pass the reCaptcha test.')); // it will be displayed along the field } }); FieldtypeRecaptcha.zip

??

thanks @Robin S for going deep on this; yeah, i'll have to head over to GH and inquire...

The issue occurs because both InputfieldURL and FieldtypeURL put the value through $sanitizer->url(), and by default the "convertEncoded" option is true. It would be good if this option was configurable for InputfieldURL/FieldtypeURL. As a quick fix you could copy the modules to /site/modules/ and edit usages of $santizer->url() to set convertEncoded false, and maybe open a GitHub issue/request to have that added as a configurable option.

Call $table->setEncodeEntities(false) before rendering.

Thanks. I used your suggestion. I also have a Region page reference, for like counties, in each Business listing. Whereas I can also list by region -> main category -> subcategory. It was a bit tricky, but, I got it and learned a few more PW methods along the way. ? cheers! ?

They had added this as a new setting and, somewhat bizarrely, not set it to the most useful setting by default. I've changed it so the default is now what we were all used to so you shouldn't need to go and set that setting.

Are you referring to Repeater Matrix? https://processwire.com/blog/posts/processwire-3.0.4-repeaters-revisited-preview-of-profields-matrix/#repeater-matrix-details-and-screenshots

I found this in Account Settings (click the user dropdown in the forum header):

I usually keep an eye on unread posts: https://processwire.com/talk/discover/unread/ Previously, when I clicked on the title of the topic, I was taken to the last unread post and that was very convenient. However, the new version just links to the first post, which is not very useful. Currently the closest thing to do is to click on the "number of replies" link, but that takes me to the last post, and I need to scroll up to find the where the "Unread replies" begin. Is there still a link that leads directly to the beginning of "Unread replies"? I need it badly ? Also, some topics (maybe module support sections?) have a new "stats section" laid out as a new right column. This is a waste of space because the main column is narrower than full width, so a long topic has become even longer than before. This means a lot of extra scrolling from now on, which does not make me happy at all ? Code in this new narrow main column is mostly need horizontal scrolling just to see the content, and that is annoying. I also saw some fixed-width code text sticking out of the main column it for some reason. I am not pleased with these changes at all, they are definitely not welcome. I hope Pete can sort these issues out.

Hi John W., hoping not to misunderstand your data structure: I'm sure that the Drs. are not in the Gifts businesss, and Mary's Flower shop ist not involved in physicians' tasks. So the hierarchy of your categories should be just like your wanted output (see the attached image). Then the individuals (Dr. Adams, Dr. Smith, Mary's Flower Shop) need only to have a reference field to the Secondary Categories - not to the Primary Categories. (Since Mental Health is a subcategory of Physicians, Dr. Smith automatically is categorized as Physician...)

@kixe Thank you for this module! It saved me countless hours(probably days) of pain.
