I stumbled on this video by Primeagen. If you're not familiar, he's a highly experience polyglot developer that uses a lot of different languages regularly and talks about them on his channel. His content isn't really my style (I think this is one of the first "reaction" videos I've ever watched), but I enjoyed seeing him get reintroduced to PHP, especially since he states that he hasn't used it since PHP 5.x. The video he reviews is also a really great introductions to modern features of PHP 8+ that I think more developers should adopt- both because they are totally cool and really do provide a better developer experience. So come for the "PHP is cool again", stay for the syntax we should all be using. The original video was by the same person that @wbmnfktr shared in this comment earlier in the thread, if you haven't watched his other videos, check them out!

It is definitely not, I agree. I think even the introductory blog page does not make it clear what the purpose of DefaultPage actually is: https://processwire.com/blog/posts/pw-3.0.152/ And a lot more could be documented and supported, see my old thread, for example:

Interesting but I find it hard to digest this chart as being a useful overview. I keep looking at it and fail to "keep anything of it in my brain". I find the following "cheat sheet" much more informative and therefore usable: https://addyosmani.com/blog/script-priorities/

He has different formats, but yes... "reaction" videos are special. Still I really enjoyed this one (and the original video).

@bernhard Thank you for this thorough response. Thanks also for making those videos. When I was trying to learn more about ProcessWire these were some of the first I watched, and I'm looking forward to the DDEV video. Because I work on an Ubuntu LTS workstation, and host on Ubuntu LTS servers, it has been easy for me to be lazy. After I figure out how things work in PW I would like to make it easier to get more skilled developers involved on projects, so having an easy-to-reproduce development environment and a better development workflow will be important. I hope especially to figure out how to deal with synchronizing databases between development and production sites. I'm so tired of refreshing the page. I'll be putting RockFrontend to use immediately! @wbmnfktr I think I will take your advice on the direct output and I agree @elabx that changing the default install would help beginners. Even using the more verbose `pw-id` attribute instead of the HTML id would have helped me get started more easily. I still find it hard to predict which template inherit's content or position from which. The debugger helps, but it's an unfortunate requirement in an otherwise intuitive experience. That's just my experience. Thanks again to all for the warm welcome and fantastic advice. Community is what I really love about open source projects.

@ryan I am very curious about the decision to limit deletions for non-admins to single pages. It would be great, if you elaborated a bit about the reasoning behind this. Thank you! My sites mostly use the page tree for page section content aswell and in this situation, it is completely reasonable to assume a "normal editor" to be able to delete a page and it's children/sections/contents in one step. Maybe we could work on introducing configurability for this. Thanks for considering!

After 8 months in development we are excited to bring you ProcessWire 3.0.226 main/master. This version has a ton of great new features, improvements and optimizations, plus more than 100 issue fixes. This post takes an in-depth look at highlights from this great new version. While there's even more in this version than is covered fully here, we hope this gives you a good taste of what you'll find in 3.0.226! https://processwire.com/blog/posts/pw-3.0.226/

Hi, Now that the page-edit-redirects permission is in the latest master, I've redeveloped this module to list redirects in the system. I've also added a list of redirects present in the htaccess file (that match one of the httpHosts), and a field for filtering the tables. Cheers, Chris

It's not official documentation but the topic has been discussed here: The page and diagram that @teppo created and linked to is dead now but I've found it very informative so here's the diagram for posterity: It would be wonderful if @ryan or someone knowledgeable created an updated version of this.

Ahhhh thank you - penny drops, aha moment! ? This works - the template-specific classes need to extend DefaultPage and not Page... painfully obvious with hindsight that it should follow usual inheritance rules. I'm not 100% sure it's clear from the docs though, I think I was expecting some kind of PW magic to kick in and inject the DefaultPage methods. Either way I know now and this awesome PW feature becomes even more useful. Thanks all. ? Edit: I now also realise this is exactly what @Charming Troll's reply was demonstrating. - thanks.

The master/main branch is now updated to version 3.0.225. Early next week I'll be adding a git tag for the version number as well. I usually like to merge dev to the master/main branch first, let it marinate for a day or two, and then tag it. That's because once we tag it, it triggers other services to pick it up and broadcast it. So letting it marinate for the weekend just adds a layer of comfort, for whatever silly reason. That's pretty much how I've always done it. When I did the merge, it reported 511 files changed, 76421 insertions(+), 23539 deletions(-), so there's quite a lot in this version. There's enough, that I'm going to need another week to document it all into a new blog post, which should be ready by this time next week. Our contributors list also continues to grow nicely with this new version. Thanks to all those that have submitted PRs, reported issues, and submitted feature requests. Big thanks to @matjazp in particular who has been helping a lot in identifying, testing, organizing and even coding the solutions for numerous issue reports. More details on this new version next week. Until then, thanks for reading and have a great weekend!

I can definitely reproduce this. The exact reason for it can be found here ProcessPageListActions.php @ line 221. The ability to trash a branch of pages as non-superuser is specifically not allowed. Why that is, probably only @ryan can shed some light into. This would also explain why "Edit" > "Delete" tab does not have the same restriction. The commit introducing this functionality from 2018 can be found here.

I don't really get the point of the video, and associated with you question, it make me confusing, can you elaborate what you had in mind by asking ? ? (keep in mind I am not following the current bashing) I think I am in not the targeted audience. Like him I always ever been confused by people trying to reinvent the wheel, or trying to do in the frontend what the backend already do/ship, or even without it. A fact is (and I hope not a global one), among others, schools recruiters need to focus on the teachers they are recruiting to give good habits and knowledges to students. I have a real example as since one month as I have a trainee at home (first year of a Bachelor Digital School in France), she asked me to help make things about coding more clear in his head. I could see what she learnt in his first year making me not surprised that this kind of video pops. Experienced devs have no excuses anyway. edit: just a (maybe useless ) comment, this is what I like (even if I am not using it) about HTMX philosophy.
