About Standard Theme Processwire: where is html file?
pwired replied to franciccio-ITALIANO's topic in General Support
Many of us have used "classical" systems with "system rules" to make websites before using Processwire. Processwire is a decoupled system without any rules. So with Processwire you handle html by: 1. writing your own html code in your processwire template files, 2. including inc files that hold your html code using php include, 3. generating dynamic html code with the processwire api combined with php, 4. etc. etc. etc. So if you see a nice free html template somewhere on the internet that you want to use to make a website, you would have to strip its html code and bring it inside processwire. -
Does anyone know of an uikit cheat sheet ?
-
Not only that ! Found there also a lot of links to more great material !
-
Thanks for mentioning those. Responsee can speed up work on some websites especially with the available templates. Ink looks like a good smaller alternative for bootstrap. Groundworks looks very professional. Start playing with Ink first.

Interesting. I always would like to stay with pocketgrid since it is so small and easy and practical. But some things I could never accomplish with pocketgrid in a "normal" way. Like giving a processwire block a background picture. In the end I found a way by using padding-bottom (image height/width x 100)% See this post: https://processwire.com/talk/topic/12830-reaching-the-limit-of-pocket-grid-css/ But still this solution gave me always problems with views on different screens like on desktop, laptop, tablet and smartphone So I changed to bootstrap but still thinking about pocketgrid

Hi, I am searching for a file sharing service to host movies and music instead of hosting those files on my web hoster. Then I want to use links to those files in my web code. I tried a few e.g. idrive but the links dont let you access the files directly. Instead the link opens a wrapper that shows a window with downloading options and referring to the file sharing service. Do you guys know a file sharing service that let you use direct links to the files usable in your code ?

Are you guys using uikit both for web interfaces and web site front ends ? So for web site front ends the next question would be: is uikit better than bootstrap ? Digged with Google but would like to hear from you guys from the field directly.

Sub-links and Images is not functioning in proper way
pwired replied to Ibrahim El Haddad's topic in General Support
It also depends on what local server your are using to find the wrong config you have now. Are you on windows/mac/linux ? Have you installed Adrians debugger ? Really speeds up finding problems. http://modules.processwire.com/modules/tracy-debugger/ -
I think it is. It’s not just what your words say anymore, but where they appear.

You have to empty the cache and sessions in your backup before you can run it locally

Thanks for coming back on this Francis. Code like this is really necessary. Backing up websites and databases takes time. Yes I know this can be done with services provided from your hoster and this works all fine. But I dont want to put my bets on just the hoster. I dont know about you guys but considering the countless hours of work I want second backups on my portable hdd. At night I want my computer to make those second backups with code or scripts.

Welcome back NooseLadder. Is it already a year ago ? Time really flies man. I remember your posts very well. Here you go: https://github.com/ryancramerdesign/BlogProfile http://modules.processwire.com/modules/process-blog/ Remembering your posts I think you have enough code experience for using pw.

Its an existential thing. The world is more than the sum of its parts, like processwire is more than the sum of its code.

Web designer gone; I need help changing home page.
pwired replied to AndreaPT's topic in General Support
If he owns the domain the hoster eventually will give new access to the database but this can be a frustrating id process depending on the hoster. Especially if the domain is not registered with the hoster but somewhere else. Speaking out of experience. I just find it strange that a designer who has the admin credentials leaves and then cannot be contacted again. -
Web designer gone; I need help changing home page.
pwired replied to AndreaPT's topic in General Support
You have access to change text but not a logo ? So how do you access to change text ? As a user with lesser access rights ? The designer who has the admin login credentials has left and cannot be contacted again ? ? ? If that is true find a skilled white hat hacker to get into the database and let you reset admin access. -
Has been discussed before in several threads. I my self grow my own library with processwire themes. It takes time to grow your own library with processwire themes but it is worth it as you can adapt/modify/change a processwire theme into anything a client wants. After you finished a website, clients are always going to call you back and want something changed, modified or added. With processwire, having everything open, no problem. My experience with Wordpress is you depend heavily on plugins or need to learn how to "hack" a wordpress theme into what the client wants. All wasted time as you will never get it right 100% this way and you learn nothing useful new in coding. Besides that, wordpress theme support will never help you with code questions and is limited to functional support. This processwire forum is the best support you can ever wish for if you have any question about processwire.

This is really cool !! Have still to learn this.

Very nice made with cool effects. Thanks for mentioning Masonry and vivus, didnt know them yet.

This will always be an issue especially with non tech clients. Thats why you need to communicate very clear with a client about what he might need later on. Many times the client only knows what he needs today, but will call you in the future when he needs something extra. And there you have it, will you be able to cope with asked extras in the future ? Most likely there will be no processwire plugin for it like you have in wp or drupal world. Just an example, I was asked to make a website for a call center in spain, no problem there. But later on they called me if I could make the website fetch data from a server and database in germany. I dont know if there is a plugin for that with wp or drupal but with processwire if you are not a good experienced web coder it will be a no go for the client. Thats why I say in the beginning to a non tech client that they dont depend on me in the future as the only person. Any good experienced web coder can pick up processwire and code what they might need in the future.

Thanks for the examples guys. From here I can start trying out things. To let a website or a local computer (sometimes even a laptop) communicate with foreign databases is a much asked item. For example I know many call centers who are situated with local computers in Spain but want to fetch data from servers and databases in Germany. Until know I lack how to code this but am learning bit by bit. This kind of work is payed very well if one knows how to do this.

Thanks for that kixe. Do you might to know where to find more about $database and WireDatabasePDO ?
