  1. We faced this also at work and while we need it very rare, it's not easy to have all countries for example in all different languages. After lot of searching I found a repo on github from a guy with all the country iso names in many different languages in different formats (php, json, xml, etc) http://dev.umpirsky.com/list-of-all-countries-in-all-languages-and-all-data-formats/ https://github.com/umpirsky/country-list Would be possible to create a service for this, but haven't yet come to decide what would be best. For something more extensive like postal codes etc, a service like http://www.geonames.org/
  2. Go to the guest user and change language to what you wish i.e. Deutsch. Having english as a second language is also easy, you don't need language translation files for english as it's already english, so just keep (core) it empty.
  3. Richard are you still there? Haven't seen any activity on this as I filed couple issues on github some time ago. Thanks
  4. Its much easier to use in place translation with the gettext method as it is now. Adding an extra file with translation complicates things and add overhead where not needed translations would be loaded.
  5. There's is now a translation tool in core that will find all translatable files automatically. Just click and add.
  6. On Install is that a midule is inited or triggered twice. Not sure about details but recognized this long time ago. But otherwise usually not unless theres some thing happening like rendering multiple thing in one request. It can happen.

  9. Nope. Obviously your class is inited two times. How do you trigger that example?
  10. Just committed an update to the FormSaveReminder as it's an essential tool in your bag Changelog 1.0.4 - refactored code a bunch to simplify things - added support for CKeditor, regular and inline mode - made alert message translatable If you find any issues, please post in this thread or better open an issue on github . Next: - Look into PageTable, and why it's not triggering on changes. - if you find anything or want to help improve the module just shout For module developers To make sure your custom Inputfield works with FormSaveReminder, you'd have to make sure the input is triggering a change event. Sometimes this isn't the case if you simply change a value through js. You can after chaning a value use the $(element).trigger("change") to make sure FormSaveReminder will be able to detect a change. Thanks
  11. See them as "not" fields but a system property that is consistent with when a user edited or created a page that never changes. Don't try to use this as the article created or modified, instead I advise to use custom datetime fields. This makes sure you get a "real" creation and modified date you can rely on for maintenance or rechecking what happened when and so on. Many times this can be good to have. Adding custom date fields for the editor is then only used for output.

    End-User Usability

    Just to tell you I'm not a coder, I'm a designer and artist who happens to like coding as it's also a creative process. I used Tpyo3, Wordpress, Joomla, WebEdition, Modx and other CMS when starting with CMS's. I barely could code php. I only struggled with those platforms and had to deal with stuff I didn't want to, be it security issues or updating, learning something arbitrary platform specific. Modx happen to be a tool I worked with before ProcessWire. Within days and many hours I had a prototype of a module which didn't do anything other than say hello. All those system never really let me do what I wanted without getting in the way or installing some plugins that didn't work really. It's because they're too opinionated to be useful in a wider range of contexts. They're all cluttered (I think you got that all wrong). Which all lead to frustration and hours and hours of wasting fighting a system. They try to save you time but in fact they put you in constraints that often make little to no sense. Now all those systems try to solve certain issues by putting yet another layer of complexity and so on. Then I discovered PW and finally I was in charge, saving time, focusing on things that really matter. Within an hour I had my first module "HelperFieldLinks" working without even reading a manual other than the HelloWorld.module. It's so simple, it didn't take me long to see the simplicity and power of PW. I am able to put contrains where the project demands and not the system. It's all so simple even I could as a non coder. PW makes me shine, and people think I'm a good coder. lol. So wrong. I have built websites for my mom and sister, and never had to explain or show them how to edit their site, they found out them self, which speaks a lot of the usability of PW.
  13. Ok. Now I'm hungry and thirsty.

    End-User Usability

    ProcessWire IS successful. I've not read all but think it's all kinda way off to what PW is in its philosophy and core. Sorry, but I usually am too lazy to read more than 2-3 paragraphs. You need to work on your end-user usability (me reading your post, or not).
  15. Interesting. But then you're logged out?
  16. It's only ascii.

    That proverb we don't know. It's the opposite here. I say nothing if I'm happy, and it's urgent and important to say something that you don't like. Anyway sorry that I said something.

    Just saying honest what I think, if you feel this insulting then yes ok. I'm not speaking here as a representant of PW. This is my personal thinking. I'm sure you have reasons to do it all the way it is. I know how it works and what is takes to build such a website and make a living. The downsides of it you need to flood it with banners and ads and that get a little annoying. Either have a sponsor and 1-2 logos or have 10+ banners, that's how it is. Sorry, I'm not the only one ignoring websites that have lots of banners popups etc in general. It's just I don't feel at home. It's I get lost to where I want to go and where I am. Too much noise. Then it's maybe also the "hard" serif font, colors etc making it worse. It just don't makes me wanna click somewhere It's really not against you or cmscritics as per se. I just don't feel at home there. You can't make everyone happy. I know and really like that you're trying to push others like PW, and that's great! I judge books by cover. Edit: btw I thought my feedback was clear in that why: "I lost interest in cmscritic since I get overhelmed by the content flooded by banners. "

    I don't want to step on anyones foot (maybe), so ignore my ignorance and take it as a kidding post. I lost interest in cmscritic since I get overhelmed by the content flooded by banners. Edit forgot the

    I'm not sure what Unreal game you're refering to, but my avatar is a hand(mouse) drawn pic I did 15+ years ago on a mac.

    Not. https://www.cmscritic.com/2014-best-open-source-php-cms/ Best? Rather the largest community that voted. How comes there's devs that think it is the best? How comes I don't care.

  24. Welcome Lauren can you elaborate a little more on the case? Front end? I think there's ways around that but need more info.
