What's the value of upload_max_filesize in php.ini, and is your web server Apache or nginx? Asking because... upload_max_filesize limits the maximum size of any single file (post_max_size is the maximum size of entire request), and if you're running on nginx then there may be other directives (such as client_max_body_size) that also affect this. Depending on server config this may not work at all. If you have access to php.ini, that's definitely more likely to work.

By default, the ProcessWire object is only output in the backend or if you have frontend editing active. Otherwise, you need to add it to the html head in your your php template like this: <script> var ProcessWire = {config: <?= wireEncodeJSON($config->js(), true, $config->debug) ?>}; </script>

Hi. You can try to use $page->if() https://processwire.com/api/ref/page/if/ if($page->if('image')) { // ... } $page->if('image', function($image) { // ... })

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.

When your blog content is growing to some thousands of pages and you have comments scattered here and there, sometimes you start wondering if placing comments below each post is the best approach. Of course this totally depends on your project and contents. In my case I came to the conclusion I could provide a better user experience switching to a Forum-like solution, where discussions were organized by macro subjects and not below each individual post. Of course there are many products and services providing fully featured forum solutions, but getting only few comments per day I was reluctant to setup a dedicated forum and to deal with users' profiles. A nice thing of the comments system is that users do not need to create account and password, but simply use their email address. And here we are ... why not to setup a very basic Forum-like solution using PW Comments? But please do not get too excited… we will just use comments in a way that looks-like-a-forum. I think this solution makes sense if you have a limited number of comments per day spread on some topics. If you need to deal with high discussions traffic with several users ... do it with a fully featured forum solution !! To implement this Forum-like solution we will take benefits of (1) PW pages/templates flexibility (why you should be here otherwise…), (2) core module FieldtypeComments, (3) Uikit 3 Site/Blog Profile, (4) some of the tutorials I recently released about PW Comments (listed at the end). OK, let's start. Login into the Admin panel, select Setup, and then Fields. Let's create a checkbox field named "sticky" that we can use to keep some forum subjects on top of the communities. Now let's move to Setup, Template. We will create a new template with name "communities'. In addition to "title" field, we will add also "body" and "sidebarRight" fields (already available in the profile): Then we create a template, that we will use for individual communities, with name "community". In addition to "title" field, we will add "date", "body", "images", "comments" fields (already available in the profile) and the "sticky" field we have just created. If you wish, as I did, you can also associate some category fields. If you use Multi-Language is a good idea to use the field "date", as ,differently from createdStr, it will automatically return a locale-formatted date as you defined in the field. Now that we have created the templates, we need to customize them. Reopen the "communities" template. In the Family tab: allow the template to have children, allow only one page with this template, select "community" as only allowed template for CHILDREN. Then in the URLs tab: select allow page numbers. This will return a paginated list of communities. We reopen the "community" template. In the Family tab: do not allow the template to have children, allow to create new pages, select "communities" as only allowed template for PARENT. Now in the URLs tab: select allow page numbers. This will be necessary to create paginated comments. Let's go to the page-tree, under Home we will create a new page named "Community" using the templates "communities" (note the final s), this will be the page listing all the communities. Under the Community page, we will create the individual communities. Give the pages the name you wish and use the template "community" (note w/o the final s). It may be good creating one with the name "New Forum Requests" checking its "sticky" field so that it remains on top. As to implement this Forum-like solution, the comments pagination is a must, at this stage you will have to implement it as described in this tutorial: Now we are ready for coding (very little!) the php templates. We need to associate php files to the two templates we have created. In site/templates create two new php files communities.php and community.php. Open the template blog.php and copy its content to communities.php, then repeat the same operation copying the content of template blog-post.php to community.php. Great! We are few steps away from our Forum-like solution. Modify communities.php as follows: ... echo ukHeading1(page()->title, 'divider'); echo page()->body . '<br><hr>'; //>>>>> ADD THIS LINE //$posts = page()->children('limit=10'); //echo ukBlogPosts($posts); $posts = page()->children('sort=-sticky, sort=title, limit=10'); //>>>>> ADD THIS LINE echo ukBlogPosts($posts, ['moreText' => '', 'moreIcon' => '']); //>>>>> ADD THIS LINE ... Then modify community.php as follows: // blog post content echo ukBlogPost(page()); // comments if($page->hasField('comments')) { //>>>>> ADD THIS LINE $comments = page()->comments; // comment list if(count($comments)) { //echo ukHeading3("Comments", "icon=comments"); echo ukComments($comments->find("sort=-created"), ['paginate' => true]); //>>>>> ADD THIS LINE - READ PAGINATION TUTORIAL (NEEDED) echo '<hr>'; } // comment form $gdpr = __('I agree with the processing of my personal data. I have read and accept the Privacy Policy.'); //>>>>> ADD THIS LINE - READ GDPR TUTORIAL (OPTIONAL) echo ukHeading3(__('Join the discussion'), "icon=comment"); echo ukCommentForm($comments, ['labels' => ['gdpr' => $gdpr]]); //>>>>> ADD THIS LINE - READ GDPR TUTORIAL (OPTIONAL) } //>>>>> ADD THIS LINE Very good (hope so...). Now let's see the result. When browsing to the Community page we will get the list of the communities. In my example I decided to keep sticky the one where users can submit suggestions for new forum subjects. Selecting one of the communities we have created, we are going to see (1) a description of the community, (2) a paginated list of comments, (3) and the comment form at the bottom. Please note that in this picture pagination is kept with a limit of three items just to fit the image … It makes sense to have 10-15-20 comments per page depending on your preferences. And we are done, here it is. If you wish you can implement some additional features as described in the tutorials below. Not mandatory but probably makes good sense to enable the honeypot field as described in this tutorial as anti-spam measure: If you have the "pleasure" to deal with GDPR matters, here is described how to add a privacy checkbox to your comment form: and finally if you wish your Forum-like solution to be Multi-Language here it is what to do: I hope you enjoyed and wish you a nice week-end ! PS: it's a couple of tutorials I miss the emoj … hope they will come back in this forum soon !!

Hi PW fanatics In this post I share two of my addHookMethods for those interested. As you surely already know (if not, time to take a look at it) the Wire::addHookMethod() and the Wire::addHookProperty() API methods can be used to "breath some extra OOP" into your projects. Using addHookMethods and addHookProperty are alternatives to "Using custom page types in ProcessWire". The methods I want to share: basically the idea here is to get the URL pointing to images uploaded in the admin without writing much code in the template files. With methods like these below, it does not matter what Formatted value is set to the images, because some predefined defaults are used in all circumstances. #1 Example template file code: <?php $img_src = $latest_article->siteFeaturedImage(); ?> <img src="<?= $img_src ?>" alt="<?= $page->title ?>"> addHookMethod goes into /site/init.php <?php /* Returns URL of the original Pageimage of Article. * Image field's value can be either null (default missing image), Pageimage or Pageimages. * * @return string */ $wire->addHookMethod('Page::siteFeaturedImage', function($event) { $page = $event->object; if ($page->template != "article") { throw new WireException("Page::siteFeaturedImage() only works on 'Pages of article template', Page ID=$page is not such!"); } $article_featured = $page->getUnformatted('article_featured'); //always a Pageimages array if (count($article_featured)) { $img_url = $article_featured->first()->url; } else { $img_url = urls()->templates . "assets/img/missing-article_image.jpg"; //we show this when image is not available } $event->return = $img_url; }); ?> #2 Example template file code: <?php $img600_src = $page->siteProductImageMaxSize(600, 600, ['rotate' => 180]); ?> <img src="<?= $img600_src ?>" alt="<?= $page->title ?>"> addHookMethod goes into /site/init.php <?php /* Generates image variations for Product images. Returns URL of Pageimage. * Image field's value can be either null (default missing image), Pageimage or Pageimages. * * @param int arguments[0] Max allowed width * @param int arguments[1] Max allowed height * @param array arguments[2] See `Pageimage::size()` method for options * @return string */ $wire->addHookMethod('Page::siteProductImageMaxSize', function($event) { $page = $event->object; if ($page->template != "product") { throw new WireException("Page::siteProductImageMaxSize() only works on 'Pages of product template', Page ID=$page is not such!"); } $width = isset($event->arguments[0]) ? $event->arguments[0] : 48; //default width $height = isset($event->arguments[1]) ? $event->arguments[1] : 48; //default height $options = isset($event->arguments[2]) ? $event->arguments[2] : $options = array(); //default empty options $product_image = $page->getUnformatted('product_image'); //always a Pageimages array if (count($product_image)) { $img_url = $product_image->first()->maxSize($width, $height, $options)->url; } else { $img_url = urls()->templates . "assets/img/product-missing-image.jpg"; //we show this when image is not available } $event->return = $img_url; }); ?> BTW, you can find more examples here: How can I add a new method via a hook? Working with custom utility hooks Adding array_chunk support to WireArray addHookProperty() versus addHookMethod() Have a nice weekend!

Solved: PHP update reset the memory limit too low.

Good point about making charts styleable via CSS. My experience has been that most clients and most dashboards don't need charts at all, so frankly I don't think I'll be investing too much time here, but if or when I decide to revamp the chart panel I'll keep that in mind. Adding tabs is definitely on my list. Groups are already supported, so adding tabs should be somewhat trivial. There's possible performance issues to keep in mind when rendering too many panels at once but that shouldn't be a blocker.

Here I come diving in at the end of a thread that's probably solved your question, but if you need a yes / no answer then shouldn't you be using radio buttons anyway?

I think we need to setup ElasticSearch for the search index as it's partly a limitation of the MySQL setup but also so searches don't overload the forum itself when people search for "the" etc (imagine if someone just wanted to slow the whole system down - you can do it fairly easily with 3 letter searches as it'll find a lot more matches even with flood control systems in place). I'd like to get it setup eventually as Horst's suggestion works for public forums but for other parts like the Pro module forums it doesn't work there. I thought we had it in place already actually but apparently not - I'll look into where we got up to with it.

Might a Select Options field suit your needs? Part of the core, and can be suitable for uses such as you describe. Details at https://processwire.com/docs/fields/select-options-fieldtype/.

@Jens Martsch - dotnetic @Macrura Adding multiple panels via $panels->add([]) should work now.

@Jens Martsch - dotnetic @Macrura Come to think of it, I could check if the config array has numerical keys, and in that case treat them as an array of configs.

I could make that a bit more obvious in the documentation ?

Under Edit field > Input > CKEditor Settings > CKEditor toolbar, you need to add the button: A11ychecker Save, then you should see the new button

Thank you! This is very useful because I'm not a php expert. Welcome everyone!

This is the method that I use and find it really handy. The main.php file for processwire.com has this at the top: if(strpos($page->body, '<p>https://www.youtube.com') !== false) { $replacement = '<iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/$1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>'; $page->body = preg_replace('#<p>\s*https://www.youtube.com/watch\?v=([^\s&<]+).*?</p>#iu', $replacement, $page->body); }
