Thank you @bernhard for sharing your modules and for your open source contribution to the ProcessWire community! When I was developing modules, I initially thought of each one as a potential source of income. But over time I realized that the real value lies in something greater than money — the support from users, their questions, the connections made, and the ability to contribute to this amazing community. That's what makes it truly worthwhile. Your decision to open source your modules is inspiring and will benefit many developers. Wishing you all the best! 🙏

I made a similar file a long time ago, which I upload to the server. Then I select the archive I need, and it download and unpacks it automatically. Important: you can prepare a ready-made archive with ready-made profiles (skeleton) to make it easier to get started. pw.php

Hi everyone! 👋 I'd like to share SquareImages - a simple module that creates perfect square images from any source format. Born from a real-world need: displaying vertical product images (like Coca-Cola bottles) uniformly in galleries and grids without distortion or awkward sizing. The Problem // Traditional methods don't work well for mixed aspect ratios: $image->width(300); // Too narrow for vertical images $image->height(300); // Too wide $image->size(300, 300); // Distorted The Solution // One simple method - smart cropping, perfect squares: $square = $image->square(300); Key Features 🎯 Smart Cropping - Automatically centers on longer dimension 📦 Format Preservation - Maintains original format (JPG/PNG/GIF) 🌐 WebP Support - Chain with ->webp() for compression ⚡ Performance - Fast URL generation 💾 Automatic Caching - Built on PW's image engine Quick Example <div class="product-grid"> <?php foreach ($page->products as $product): ?> <?php $thumb = $product->photo->square(300); ?> <img src="<?= $thumb->url ?>" alt="<?= $product->title ?>"> <?php endforeach; ?> </div> Perfect uniform squares, regardless of source dimensions! API Methods $image->square(400); // Main method $image->squareWidth(500); // Based on width $image->squareHeight(600); // Based on height $image->getSquareURL(300); // Direct URL (faster) // WebP conversion $image->square(500)->webp(); // 25-65% smaller files Installation GitHub: https://github.com/mxmsmnv/SquareImages cd site/modules/ git clone https://github.com/mxmsmnv/SquareImages.git Or download ZIP and extract to /site/modules/SquareImages/ Then refresh modules in admin and install. Use Cases E-commerce product galleries Team member avatars Blog thumbnails Social media previews Instagram-style grids

It will be difficult to do all this even if you use AI to create what you need. First of all, you need to understand how it all works in ProcessWire and have skills in working with ProFields, Repeater, Repeater Matrix, Selector, and other basic modules. There is nothing complicated about it, but the time you spend creating a solution from scratch is better spent finding a ready-made solution and removing what you don't need. To understand how these systems work, I suggest you start by studying https://processwire.com/modules/site-invoices/

I’d like to bring attention to a long-standing organizational issue that affects projects with many template files. As projects grow, the /site/templates/ directory becomes cluttered with dozens (or even hundreds) of PHP files, making it difficult to maintain and navigate. The Problem Currently, ProcessWire doesn’t natively support organizing template files into subdirectories. For example, if you want to organize templates like this: /site/templates/ ├── warehouse/ │ ├── dashboard.php │ ├── packing.php │ └── packages.php ├── customer/ │ ├── dashboard.php │ └── packages.php └── sso/ ├── login.php └── callback.php You currently face several challenges: Alternate Template Filename field is unreliable - The admin interface often strips or resets the path when saving, especially if the file doesn’t exist at that exact moment No automatic discovery - You must manually configure each template’s file path Hooks don’t work as expected - Attempts to hook TemplateFile::getFilename or Template::getFilename don’t fire reliably Current Workarounds The existing workarounds are less than ideal: 1. Bridge files as suggested by @LostKobrakai // site/templates/warehouse-dashboard.php <?php namespace ProcessWire; include(__DIR__ . '/warehouse/dashboard.php'); This creates file duplication and maintenance overhead. 2. Manual Alternate Template Filename for each template: - Requires clicking through every template - Path validation often fails - No bulk operations Previous Discussions This has been requested multiple times over the years: Does PW support organizing Template files in sub Dirs? (2016) Template file in other folder than /site/template (2017) How do I organize a lot of templates? (2017) Proposed Solution I’ve opened a GitHub feature request with detailed suggestions: https://github.com/processwire/processwire-requests/issues/575 The core ideas: 1. Path persistence - The Alternate Template Filename field should reliably save paths like folder/filename.php 2. Automatic discovery - If a template named warehouse-dashboard isn’t found, check for /warehouse/dashboard.php 3. Template grouping in admin - Visual organization in Setup → Templates based on folder structure Why This Matters Large projects - Sites with 50+ templates become unmanageable Team development - Clear organization helps multiple developers Module development - Modules could bundle template files cleanly Modern standards - Most frameworks support organized file structures Use Cases This would benefit: Multi-role applications (admin, customer, warehouse staff interfaces) Projects with many page types Module developers who want to bundle templates Anyone with SSO/OAuth files, API endpoints, or admin tools What Can You Do? If you’ve faced this issue or would like this feature: 1. 👍 React to the GitHub issue 2. Share your use cases below 3. Suggest implementation approaches @ryan - Would love to hear your thoughts on this! Is this something that could be considered for a future release? Thanks for reading, and I hope this resonates with others who’ve felt this pain!

Happy 2026 everyone! 🎉 TL;DR: I made 2048 game for ProcessWire admin. Install it, ignore your inbox, get high scores. Why? Because it's January 1st and: ✅ You're probably hungover ✅ Nobody expects you to work ✅ You're definitely checking your admin anyway ✅ Why not play some 2048 while you're there? What's inside? 🎮 Classic 2048 (arrow keys or swipe) 🏆 Leaderboard (compete with your team!) 🔊 Sound effects (mutable, we know your head hurts) 📱 Works on phone (for bathroom breaks) ⚙️ Configurable grid (3x3 to 12x12 if you hate yourself) Download https://github.com/mxmsmnv/Process2048 Install Upload to /site/modules/Process2048/ Modules → Refresh → Install Setup → 2048 Start procrastinating! Screenshot: Cheers 🥂

As we close out 2025, I'm pleased to share a new module that I've been using in production: FieldtypeTimezone / InputfieldTimezone. 🎯 What It Does A straightforward timezone fieldtype that handles the complexity of timezones automatically - no configuration needed, just install and use. Key Features: Dynamic UTC offsets - automatically calculates current offsets with DST support Simple format - displays as "Country → City (UTC+X)" Intelligent caching - 24-hour cache for optimal performance Production-ready - strict validation at all levels Complete coverage - all major world timezones included 💡 Why I Built This Working on global websites (wine shop, news portal), I needed a reliable way to handle user timezones without complexity. The module automatically adjusts UTC offsets for DST: America/New_York: UTC-5 in winter, UTC-4 in summer Europe/London: UTC+0 in winter, UTC+1 in summer 🚀 Basic Usage <?php // Display date in a nice English format $timezone = $page->tz; // e.g., "America/New_York" if ($timezone) { $tz = new \DateTimeZone($timezone); $datetime = new \DateTime('now', $tz); echo $datetime->format('F j, Y \a\t g:i A T'); } ?> Perfect for: User profiles with timezone preferences Event calendars with automatic time conversion Global applications requiring accurate time display Any site serving users across multiple timezones 📋 Requirements ProcessWire 3.0.0+ PHP 8.1+ 📦 Installation GitHub: https://github.com/mxmsmnv/FieldtypeTimezone cd /path/to/processwire/site/modules/ git clone https://github.com/mxmsmnv/FieldtypeTimezone.git Or download and extract to /site/modules/FieldtypeTimezone/ Then install via Modules → Site → FieldtypeTimezone 📖 Documentation Full documentation with practical examples, API methods, and advanced usage scenarios is available in the GitHub repository. 🤝 Feedback Welcome The module has been tested in production on several sites, but I'd appreciate any feedback, suggestions, or bug reports from the community. Happy New Year to the ProcessWire community! 🎉

Hi everyone! You’ve probably seen embedded product cards directly in articles on sites like Allegro, PriceRunner? I was using Hanna Code but found its capabilities limiting for my needs, so I decided to fork it and create Embedr - a more feature-rich version: Key Features: 🎯 Dynamic content blocks via ProcessWire selectors (not just static code) 🔄 Live preview directly in admin interface 🎨 Built-in visual card builder (UIKit-based) - no PHP required! 📝 Custom PHP templates for full control when needed 🏷️ Reusable embed types system 🔍 Debug mode with comprehensive logging ✅ Guest-safe - works for all users out of the box Quick Example: Create an embed with a selector: Name: featured-products Selector: template=product, featured=1, limit=6 Type: products Insert in text: ((featured-products)) Done! The module automatically finds pages and renders product cards. Need custom design? Just create a PHP template at /site/templates/components/products.php GitHub: https://github.com/mxmsmnv/Embedr Give it a try and let me know what you think! 🚀

I don't think you need a disguise to view your website, but you can always add exceptions. Also this week, I updated the module to version 1.1.9, where, in addition to prohibitions, exception fields have been added: for search robots (user agent), ASN and IP. Thanks a lot, I've corrected it everywhere. Yes, I see that access to the site is blocked when javascript is disabled. I'll think about how to solve it.

Hello! 👋 I'm thrilled to (re-)introduce WireWall — an advanced security firewall module for ProcessWire that I've been actively developing and refining in production for months. After blocking massive amounts of malicious traffic (99.98%+ on my e-commerce sites) with zero impact on real users, it's time for a refreshed community announcement with all the latest features from v1.3.4. What is WireWall? WireWall turns your ProcessWire site into a secure fortress with enterprise-grade tools: city-level geo-blocking, full IPv6/CIDR, multi-layer bot protection, true stealth mode, rate limiting fixes, and file-based caching that easily handles 1M+ IPs. Key Features (as of 1.3.4) Geographic Control City-level blocking (e.g. Philadelphia, Beijing, Sydney) Subdivision/region blocking (Pennsylvania, New South Wales, Île-de-France) Country blocking (blacklist/whitelist 200+ countries) MaxMind GeoLite2 integration (Country + ASN + City) — 0.5-2ms lookups HTTP fallback (ip-api.com) when MaxMind not available Full IPv6 + CIDR support Bot & Threat Protection Bad bots, scanners, vulnerability tools AI training bots (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, GrokBot, Perplexity, etc.) Fake/headless browser detection (Puppeteer, Selenium, etc.) VPN/Proxy/Tor detection (multi-API chain) Datacenter blocking (AWS, GCP, Azure, Hetzner, etc.) ASN blocking & whitelisting (block/allow entire networks) Security & Rate Limiting Configurable rate limiting with burst handling & permanent/temporary bans JavaScript challenge for suspicious traffic IP whitelist/blacklist with CIDR Priority system — now 16 levels (logged-in users at #3, trusted modules at #2) Stealth & UX True silent 404 mode — plain "Not Found" text (no HTML/branding) Beautiful custom block page with location/IP display Custom redirect or message on block Option to completely disable AJAX protection (fallback for tricky integrations) Performance & Management File-based cache — scales to millions of IPs, no DB overhead Cache UI with stats & per-type clear buttons Detailed logging (city/region/ASN included) Admin area always protected (triple-layer) Real-World Results On production sites (e-commerce + others), WireWall consistently: Blocks 99.98%+ of attacks/scrapers/VPN fraud Zero false positives for logged-in users & legitimate traffic (thanks to priority fixes) Handles spikes without issues after rate limiting improvements Eliminates most cloud-based automated probes Installation (Quick) cd site/modules/ git clone https://github.com/mxmsmnv/WireWall.git Then in admin: Modules → Refresh Install WireWall Configure (start with rate limiting + VPN detection + bad/AI bots) Monitor: Setup → Logs → wirewall Priority System (how requests are evaluated) Admin area → always ALLOW Trusted ProcessWire module AJAX → ALLOW Logged-in users → ALLOW (new in 1.3.4 — unconditional bypass) IP whitelist → ALLOW Allowed bots / IPs / ASNs → ALLOW Rate limiting → BLOCK if exceeded IP blacklist → BLOCK JS challenge → CHALLENGE VPN/Proxy/Tor → BLOCK Datacenter → BLOCK ASN blocking → BLOCK Global rules (bots/paths/UA/referer) → BLOCK Country blocking → BLOCK/ALLOW City blocking → BLOCK/ALLOW Subdivision blocking → BLOCK/ALLOW Country-specific rules → BLOCK First match wins. MaxMind Setup (strongly recommended) Free GeoLite2 databases → fast & offline. See README or https://wirewall.org for setup guide. Requirements ProcessWire 3.0.200+ PHP 8.1+ Resources GitHub: https://github.com/mxmsmnv/WireWall Releases & Changelog: https://github.com/mxmsmnv/WireWall/releases Landing: https://wirewall.org License: MIT (free for commercial use) Why build this? ProcessWire deserved a native, scalable, granular firewall with city-level control, offline capability, and proper exception handling — things missing or hard in other solutions. Happy to answer questions, hear about your security setups, or debug any issues! Feedback from the community has already shaped big improvements (like the recent logged-in & stealth fixes). Best regards, Maxim

Yes, I tried to solve this problem yesterday,but there are two options you can use: https://images.weserv.nl/ or https://github.com/thumbor/thumbor Cloudflare Transformations didn't work for sundomains. You may use ProCache module by Ryan for caching images with CDN. -
