Hi, A) it is not a problem that PW has. Every one with this meaning should have a closer look to the screen that you have posted to dropbox: The software is running without problems. It informs you, the superuser, about something language related, at a stage where it cannot know what you want to do with the site. B) It is not a bug, it is a warning or information to the superuser which is the admin. These sort of informations are never displayed to users, only to superuser(s). Superusers are some sort of bus drivers, right? They need to know how much fuel is available and if the tire pressure is to low or not. The other users don't need to know all that informations, they are not driving the bus. C) If you use a default english windows system, bought as a german in germany, and it has no de_locale settings, is this a bug? Or is it disrespectful, that it doesn't assume that the most clients may be germans and may want to use german language with german dates and german float numbers? I don't want to become nitpicking here. If a user has no knowledge of the nature of default PHP installations, how should he know that it is set for EN-locale and not DE? Does the hosting company welcome you in english or in german on their websites? (If they do in german, it is a clear sign for me that they assume you are a german person.) Maybe one can say that both ways have their pros and cons? If a PC-software informs you about a configuration of your system, that has potential to be not correct for your usage, it is one way that may help users with no knowledge about a special fact. But other then a hosting company in a special country, PW cannot "assume" the most used language there, PW is installed around the world. IMO, a hosting company may assume this, but also don't need to act upon it! It is like with a car dealer, he can buy you a car or ten cars, without to care if you can drive or have a driver licence. Should he do care? An example: If a person with no knowledge uses something two years long, without to get confronted with some facts that may need recognition or a decision, the person will have the same level of knowledge in this regard after the two years. If a person gets confronted with those facts and get pushed a bit to start to look behind the scenes of some things, he/she will have more knowledge after the two years. Is more knowledge usefull or obstructive? (You see, we are now on the floor called philosophy. ) As another example, take your own current situation: You don't understand exactly what this locale thing is or means. Is it a bug, is it an information, is it related to PHP, to PW, to something else? You are sitting between all chairs of your friend, a hosting company and some PW lovers. Not as comfortable as it could be. If you would have get some knowledge about that thing in the past, you simply would know all relevant facts about it on your own and you now already would have done some experiments with building your site. You already would have made your hands dirty with coding. IMHO, its PWs philosophy to force the (super)users into a bit more knowledge. But it is up to you, the superuser (or bus driver), which route you want to follow. Do you want to take the red pil or the blue pil? https://youtu.be/OuJ87X9YX3c?t=57 Maybe you know the SELFHTML project in germany? It's slogan was or is: Die Energie des Verstehens (The energy of understanding). It was my ever goto reference since I started with webstuff in 1998/1999. (Now you know the time when I decided to take the red one ) To sum up: Neither the hosting company is wrong, not to assume a default language, nor PW is. It's only my personal opinion when I said that it could be more by the hosting company to assume a default language, than it could be by PW. But neither the web host is buggy nor PW is in this regard. PS: Also, for me it is not a question which pil is yours. Only question for me is: Do you already have taken it, or are you just in the moment before it?

Yes, but with this articles and if you are fit in HTML and CSS, you don't need much more. Only practice. Best thing is to grab you something like from the c't article, and work with it. The few starting things you don't know on PHP you will get there and further more you will find help here in the forums. To your initial questions, it is simply HTML markup from the template files. Reading the HTML, you will find the appropriate parts and can remove them.

ProcessWire detected that this isn't set in your hosts server setting and warns you about that. I never have seen this warning on any of my 40+ projects, hosted by differend hosting agencies. And it wouldn't be a good pratice to silently change server settings, as it may have a special reason, (that is, by its nature, out of the scope of the PW installer). PW does several checks with the installer, and some more, less important ones in intervals, only visible for the SuperUser. Long story short: your host simply misses the local setting. It is the same like with your Computer System, e.g. Windows. If it wouldn't have set any locale, you may get the (for you) wrong english settings. Wrong date, time and float values, etc. etc. It is a missing PHP init setting on your (bought) host.

@fermion You may find two (or more) well written articles in the german c't magazin: https://www.heise.de/ct/ausgabe/2015-7-Websites-betreiben-mit-dem-Open-Source-CMS-ProcessWire-2562549.html And there was an article in 03.12.2016 (interessante CMS-Alternativen zu Wordpress) but cannot find it atm. Ah, here it is: https://www.heise.de/ct/entdecken/?jahr=2016;ausgabe=25;sort=seite_auf;seite=6 There are three articles in it. Better you buy the whole magazine for 4,50 instead the online articles one by one.

Reno Admin is capturing my browser navigation keys
horst replied to Scheintod's topic in Themes and Profiles
Hi, welcome to the forums. I think this is a good place, (at the end of the page). Unfortunately I cannot move your post to it. So, let it stay here this time. The author of the reno admin theme is @renobird. -
current state: https://github.com/processwire/processwire/commit/8fe1eb13f4cbc85c6d5dad093fc559c438c92667#commitcomment-27795259 - sadly I will not have more time this week.

Reno Admin is capturing my browser navigation keys
horst replied to Scheintod's topic in Themes and Profiles
@Scheintod You better had asked this in the support thread of the Reno Theme. The author may have checked to get notices of follow-up posts. -
There are no such steps. The cropable image and the focus point are completly different things and can be used side by side. If you want to drop cai and use focus point, you have to switch the api code in your templates. Before you completely remove cai calls, you may change them to a call to remove variations. But others then that isn't necessary.

Linking directly between templates and field edit screens from pages
horst replied to Vigilante's topic in Wishlist & Roadmap
When $config->debug is true, you can read all fieldnames when hovering the arrow in the top right of every field. This is possible with plain PW. -
Post to database of another Processwire site
horst replied to modifiedcontent's topic in General Support
Yep, that's how it is often. Also I tried to bookmark all interersting stuff (with several systems of subfolders), it ever ended up unusable, just because of the amount of bookmarks collected by the time. -
ePrivacy was planned to be obliged at the same time, but now is considered to be obliged not before 2019!

Did you have read this? https://processwire.com/blog/posts/multi-instance-pw3/ -
There is currently a discussion with code examples from @BitPoet going on here in the forums withexact that point. Have a look into the security thread. I'm on mobile and not comfortable enough to find and paste the link. But it is only 1-3 days ago.

The problematic data is only "personal sensitive data", not every data that is in the DB. So what about encrypting the personal sensitive data. This should be doable with less effort. At least, when sensitive personal data is / should be out of scope of search results. This said, it should be less possible to reveal sensitive data from mysql-backups that are not under own control.

I have temporary hidden some posts, as I'm not clear if they are following our guidelines. EDIT: The above mentioned posts will stay hidden, as they are not in conjunction with our guidelines.

ImageExtra works together with AOS. This way you can add all fields you need and has the ability to filter and sort. No need for othet modules.

this comes from time to time since PW 2.3

Retrieving wrong (non-croped) file with filesManager
horst replied to Noel Boss's topic in API & Templates
There was a bug in 3.0.88. It get fixed in 3.0.89. Don't know if it affected your case, but want to ask: Did it work for you after upgrading? -
not exactly but a bit related thread:
-
Maybe you can use the the imagesExtra module, drop your sorting-module and install AOS (Admin On Steroids). WIth AOS you can add filter and searchboxes to images fields, what makes it very conveniant to find images with specific strings. So, I'm not sure if that search/filterfield includes all imagesExtra fields by default. But a quick question to @tpr will shed some light, I hope.
-
You can set a reply-to emailaddress in the config screen. If this isn't what you are after, there is a possibility to add individual headers. I'm on mobile now, thus not able to do a search. Can have a closer look later.
-
Maybe you better should collect an array, and leave it as is? $address_rev = wire('users')->find("roles=revisor"); $emailcc = array(); foreach($address_rev as $one){ $emailcc[] = one->email } $options = array( 'sendSingle' => true, 'cc' => $emailcc );

Hi @mr-fan, thanks for sharing this calendario demo. Would you mind to post the css tweaks you show in the example?

Hi @Robin S, congrats to one more nice module! And I totally understand why you created it. I also (wanted to) use such a feature in different scenarios. Therefor once I added the "weighten" option to the PIA module. Hopefully you don't mind my following propagation of an alternative way to apply such a functionality. Maybe it is usefull for some people to have a different way to define / calculate / imagine the resulting images. You call it Megapixels, Pia uses image pixel dimensions for width & height or a single dimension for squares, defining a bounding box and get the images contained & weightened into that box. Additonally Pia handles one out of four values to the weighten-option to prioritize the landscape or portrait images in two ways: So, what you wanted was allready available in the modules directory for about three years. But I believe, when seeing all your modules, you have had fun building and sharing it. OT: For me, the last two years it is not possible to keep track of all the good new stuff coming into the core and from community members (like you). Some years ago, it felt doable for me. Lately I also found "a new possibility" to do things that was allready three years available. Even I had read it in the past and bookmarked it under my other several hundred PW links, it got out of focus. If somebody know a good way to keep track and or archive all the good stuff from here, (besides the few things that get mentions in the weekly news & blog posts), please share.
