RockGatekeeper A lightweight ProcessWire module that provides simple password protection for your website using a configurable gatekeeper password. Overview RockGatekeeper adds a basic authentication layer to your ProcessWire site. When enabled, it blocks access to all pages for guest users unless they provide the correct password via URL parameter. Features Minimal footprint: Only runs when gatekeeper is configured Session-based: Once authenticated, users stay logged in for the session IP tracking: Remembers the IP address of authenticated users Clean URLs: Automatically removes the password parameter from URLs after authentication CLI safe: Won't interfere with command-line operations Installation Copy the RockGatekeeper folder to your site/modules/ directory Install the module in ProcessWire admin Configure the gatekeeper password in your site config Configuration Add the gatekeeper password to your site configuration: // In site/config.php $config->gatekeeper = 'your-secret-password'; Usage Basic Authentication To access the protected site, users need to append the password as a URL parameter: https://yoursite.com/?gatekeeper=your-secret-password After successful authentication, users will be redirected to the same page without the password parameter, and they'll have access to the entire site for the duration of their session.

I think the recent updates are really making a big improvement. One thing I like is the return of the page list action buttons, but I am confused why they use the defined "main-color", but the rest of the buttons in the admin use "text-color" but change to "main-color" on hover. Can the page list action buttons match the same behavior as the other buttons please? PS - this alignment bug is still there: Add New button dropdown still needs internal scroll feature please.

ProcessWire 3.0.251 has several updates to the AdminThemeUikit default theme by Konkat, a page-finding selector bug fix, and more. This version should fix the majority of reported issues with the new default theme in AdminThemeUikit, as well as cover the scope of Uikit features much more broadly. As we get closer to our next main/master version, we appreciate your help testing it. This version converts to “—pw” namespaced CSS variables. Previously variables were named like "—main-color" (no namespace prefix) and now they all have a "—pw" prefix, i.e. "—pw-main-color". Make note of that if you are using any custom CSS with the default theme by Konkat, as you may need to update your CSS variable names. This version also adds 3 new toggles (available in the AdminThemeUikit module settings). These toggles enable you to customize specific parts of the theme to be more similar to or consistent with the Original theme. They are intended to answer common feature requests for the theme. If you think any of these should be enabled by default, please let us know. Currently they require you to enable them in the module settings. These toggles include: Use bold headers for repeaters, files, images, etc. - This uses the selected “main color” as the background color of repeatable and sortable item headers, which results a treatment that’s heavier and more similar to the Original theme. Use buttons for page list actions - These makes the theme use page list action buttons that resemble those in the Original theme. It also slightly modifies the appearance of pagination links. Highlight focused inputs - This makes the color of an input change (to white or black) when it is the focused input. It makes select and text inputs have the same color presentation. And it makes TinyMCE have a white (or black) background when focused, rather than a muted background. In addition to the above, today’s version also adds version query strings to the CSS/JS files used by the Konkat default theme. Previously it didn’t, which due to browser caching could have caused some to see the incorrect output of the theme. ProcessWire 3.0.251 also fixes a bug with word matching operators that query the database, like those you might use in a $pages->find() selector. (Word matching operators are those with a “~” in them). If you attempted to match a word that was more than 80 characters long, it would cause the word to get filtered out of the query completely, rather than force a non-match. So if your selector was “a=b, c=d, e~=[81 character word]”, then it would behave the same as a “a=b, c=d” selector, with the “e” part no longer contributing to the result. The correct result here is to match 0 pages, but it would instead match public pages that matched selector “a=b, c=d”. It was corrected by truncating the long word to 80 characters, rather than removing it from the query. If you are using full-word matching operators in your site search engines, it’s worth throwing some 81+ character words at them just to see if it causes any issues with your results, perhaps matching incorrect, irrelevant or too many pages. If so, then you may want to upgrade to PW 3.0.251, or truncate your search text to 80 characters before putting it into the selector. i.e. $q = substr($q, 0, 80); Thanks to @adrian for finding and reporting the issue. Lastly, ProcessWire 3.0.251 contains a few other updates, such as the ability for Process modules to use icons in their headlines, a ProcessPageLister fix, and more. ProcessWire Weekly #584 covers a couple of them in more detail. That’s all for this week, thanks for reading and have a great weekend!

Pagination buttons issue - note the missing left border on #2

@ryan @diogo @jploch are you planning to upgrade also the font awesome icons? They haven't been upgraded for over a decade... Few days ago the v7 was released. Last year I've created a module that upgrades backend with the latest Font Awesome free icons (solid + brands) but I think a core upgrade would be much better integration.

@ryan, can you pretty please look at this issue that has to do with a sub-selector bug that occurs when there are about 1500+ pages? https://github.com/processwire/processwire-issues/issues/2084 It would be nice to have that fixed before the next master version.

I can’t believe ProcessWire Weekly is still going strong! Its 10 year anniversary was actually in May last year.

Hi Brendon, I followed your advice and nothing was revealed, as I think you pointed out and I originally suspected this was the hosts issue, so in the end we found a host that has better support for Process Wire and there have been no issues, so we're migrating everything over to them. Thanks for all your help with this. Mark.
