@MarkE Love this module, thank you for sharing it. My brain works better with the way this module works than other migration modules I've tried. I have it setup and working perfectly in 1 installation. Using it for a second site, and keep running into an issue after installation. Immediately after installing in Dev site on my local machine, the page response time goes from <100ms to 1,000-1,500ms, and I think the reason is that on every single page load, the message is at the top: Bootstrap not fully installed. Attempting to reinstall... And also a list of 70 or so pages that have been modified or changed. This happens on every page load, front-end, back-end, doesn't matter. I think because the bootstrap migration is not installing, it is attempting on every page load, which slows down the site. I did not run into this before on my other site. How can I troubleshoot to figure out what is keeping the bootstrap from completing?

We’re moving along with trying to cover as many small issue fixes as possible for the next main/master version. So that’s what all the commits this week are for. There’s not much more to report than that, making good progress! If you spot any new issues on the dev branch be sure to report them in the processwire-issues repository. Thanks and have a great weekend!

This week on the dev branch are some fixes and improvements, but we'll likely wait another week before bumping the version number up. Some new hooks have been added to $pages, including moveReady(), restoreReady() and renameReady(), to accompany the existing moved(), restored() and renamed() hooks. There was also some refactoring with the way that some hooks are called from $pages to improve their reliability and cover some edge cases where they might have not been called before. See the dev branch commit log for more. The biggest addition this week is likely the newly added support for custom page classes for repeater items. This was added to respond to a feature request initiated by @thetuningspoon and @Jonathan Lahijani let me know about earlier in the week. Here's how it works. If you have a repeater field named "menu_items" then you could create a class named MenuItemsRepeaterPage in /site/classes/MenuItemsRepeaterPage.php, and it would use your custom class rather than the regular RepeaterPage. Though note it must extend RepeaterPage. <?php namespace ProcessWire; class MenuItemsRepeaterPage extends RepeaterPage { // ... } This works with RepeaterMatrix and FieldsetPage as well, since both are derived from regular repeaters. But since both have their own Page classes you'd want to extend their page classes rather than RepeaterPage. In the case of RepeaterMatrix, it uses a class called RepeaterMatrixPage. So if your Matrix field is named "hello_world" then you'd create /site/classes/HelloWorldRepeaterMatrixPage.php: <?php namespace ProcessWire; class HelloWorldRepeaterMatrixPage extends RepeaterMatrixPage {} If you want a custom class for your FieldsetPage field named "seo" then you could create /site/classes/SeoFieldsetPage.php: <?php namespace ProcessWire; class SeoFieldsetPage extends FieldsetPage {} Let's say that you want to use a custom class without using the naming convention and/or file(s) above. You can tell the fieldtype what class to use for its item(s) like this: inclue_once('/path/to/MyCustomRepeaterPageClass.php'); $field = $fields->get('your_repeater_field'); $field->type->setCustomPageClass($field, 'MyCustomRepeaterPageClass'); In the example above, MyCustomRepeaterPageClass would extend RepeaterPage. You'd probably want to do this during the "init" or "ready" state, or at least sometime before you load any items from your Repeater (or Matrix or FieldsetPage) field. If your custom class is not in the ProcessWire namespace, then you'd want to include the namespace in your call, i.e. setCustomPageClass($field, "\\MyNamespace\\MyCustomClass"); If your custom page class is already in /site/classes/, or some other path where it can be autoloaded, then the include_once() line isn't necessary. (API ref pages for getCustomPageClass and setCustomPageClass). Big thanks this week to typneun Designagentur (https://typneun.de/) for posting more than 20 awesome new sites to our ProcessWire sites directory! That made my day. Thanks for reading, more next week, and have a great weekend!
