  1. Well obviously if you've got the luxury of having a stack of real devices this doesn't make sense, but not many of us do. I'm curious as to what way they differ from the real devices? Aside from the obvious ones of on a large screen resolution they sometimes look far bigger than the real device screen (some imagination has to be used there).
  2. Well then you have to have a list excluding "the" and so on. If I find the article with the solution I'll dig it out as I'm fairly sure it lists all the pros and cons as well.
  3. No problem - any time
  4. I had to refresh it once or twice to load the new styles.
  5. Yup. Probably not the best way to go the more I think about it, plus it might suggest the forum support isn't the best, but it I'd probably the best support I've ever had with a software product.
  6. Nice updates, my only thoughts are when opening some elements it switches some blocks to different columns - I guess this is simply to keep the column lengths more or less the same length? Is there any way to turn that off as I'm not sure the animation/reordering is necessary and could be a bit confusing even if you use the cheatsheet so much you know things are supposed to be in a certain column. Certainly not a big/important issue
  7. That must have been a momentary glitch as it works for me now too. It definitely wasn't for a minute though.
  8. Cool - finally back at my PC now so I can play with this!
  9. I'm coming in very late with a reply here, but when migrating it's always worth deleting the contents of the site/cache folder just in case anything got cached that could be causing interference in some way.
  10. Obviously I'm adding my 2 cents weeks later as I'm catching up on topics I've not read, but I had a similar situation with images. The scenario was a gallery where the client wanted to add new photos over time, and they obviously wanted the new photos to appear first without reordering them manually, so the solution was: foreach ($page->images->reverse() as $galleryimage) { // code here as normal Pretty sure you could use foreach $page->children()->reverse() as well, but might not be suitable for this particular scenario. That said, the info might be useful to others so I thought it was worth posting.
  11. We can actually change the three letter word check - I think it's actually a built-in restriction of mySQL more than anything. ryan - do you think it's worth making it possible to search for three letter words on the forums? If so I can certainly dig out the solution as I had to implement it elsewhere last year. The only downside is that on very busy sites this can add overhead when people put the word "and" in the middle of a search query and it goes off to find that word, which must appear in most threads which is the reason I think mySQL uses four letters as the minimum by default.
  12. Mats - love this one as it's a nice simple layout (didn't realise you could customise Twitter Bootstrap until now!), and like the ability to view the background image too! Very neat
  13. I agree with ryan on this one - maybe the City website could be re-done by you too (just followed the link at the top-right)
  14. I'm just checking up on threads I've not read yet (down to the last two pages now!) and noticed that http://www.tracktime-asia.com/ doesn't load for me - just thought you might want to know that Marty in case you're not already aware.
  15. Just a quick one, is this part of the core yet or is it due for inclusion in 2.3? Just curious, but I've not had a look at the latest build yet and I'm going from my mobile so can't test right now.
  16. Ah right, that core folder. Yup - either way you can overwrite the whole wire folder if you think there's something wrong with it without messing up the rest of your site which is handy.
  17. By "core" I guess you mean "wire". It does sound like something odd happened there but good to hear re-uploading it fixed things. Just a note on the admin folder - where Ryan said to rename the one in the site folder this would default to the admin theme in the wire folder then to rule out a custom theme issue. Basically keeping any custom modules or themes in the site directory means that you can simply overwrite the wire directory with a new version to upgrade without overwriting any custom modules or themes in the site directory - simple upgrade path
  18. Another way to do it could be some sort of paid support package, though there are pros and cons to that as you would need to offer something like "5 support tickets with 24 hour guaranteed response time" or something like that and you're only one person with other demands on your time. Plus it's nicer for queries to come through the forums so everyone benefits from the discussions. That said, might not be a bad idea for more corporate-based companies in the future where they need some sort of SLA. Don't mind me, I'm just rambling
  19. I wonder if this was only a browser-specific issue anyway? I know IE goes crazy when you miss out semicolons, but in other cases other browsers are fine with it.
  20. I quite liked the idea of an emulator actually as I didn't even realise until recently the problem with retina displays (even though I own an iPhone). I think some other manufacturers are using high density display as well nowadays but if using the emulator I'd only ever bother checking on the latest devices it supports - anything more than that will drive me crazy as I have a hard enough time getting things working in older versions of IE sometimes Interesting to see the other options though - very useful so if anyone has any more let us know!
  21. Sounds useful - im guessing if a page's path changes twice the first path will be automatically redirected to the latest path, and not through any paths in between?
  22. Could even have a different colour scheme for modules to avoid confusion (thus creating more work because that's just what Soma needs ).
  23. Thanks both - this would be a useful thread to discuss any such integrations I guess ceberlin, as there are many scripts out there that had their own member systems. It will be good to see integration with another forum package too as we'll likely have different approaches to similar problems so good luck with it Thanks for your post ryan, that certainly gives me a good idea of how to do a few things I wasn't sure of
  24. Might be easiest to have them on a drop down so it switches to a module-specific cheat sheet page. That said, now I think about it there aren't all that many modules that would have more than a handful of cheat sheet functions anyway.
  25. Yup - I was also pleasantly surprised
