I think this is where modx evo shined with template variables that you could fill with custom html, css or js for a specific page.

yup, php is the language that drives the web - and processwire. I wished I started learning php 10 years ago. https://tutsplus.com/course/php-fundamentals/ http://www.w3schools.com/php/default.asp http://www.tizag.com/phpT/

Thanks for your replies, this is one of the open parts of PW where I still have to learn how to use it.

This is an interesting topic. Using fields in the administration without db data but holding custom js or css that you can call in your webpages. Apeisa: how do you create an input field with a dummy field type Adamkiss: how did you solve it ?

Great find! Do I need typekit.net to have these fonts showing up on my webpages ?

Ok that's great news. Forgive me if I'm asking something obvious here, but does this mean that I now, in a more easy way, can put little country flags on top of each page, and when a visitor clicks on one of the country flags, the text on the pages will be loaded in the selected language ? Would I link a country flag to the fields holding the text in it's language ?

Another great way to promote PW.

Have a look at this post : http://processwire.com/talk/topic/2393-processwire-framework/

Very well said Joss. Processwire goes beyond just another cms and thus it is going to be a very good starting point to define what processwire actually is, what it can be and do, for who and for what. Processwire can be put in a much wider perspective than a cms and that will promote it very well on a meeting and demonstrating it to new people. Look for example how Luis ported his php app office management suite to PW because of it´s flexibility, scalability and built-in user-roles. I think more examples of this kind would serve very well on the about page on the processwire webpage to show it more directly and openly. Actually it is already there under "What's unique" and "Why processwire" on the about page, but newbies can easily overlook what is actually said there. At least that's what happened to me in the beginning. After being left out from modx evo I started my journey to another cms and came across processwire two times. I didn't really see that the architecture of processwire is even more open than modx evo. If you can't imagine something it is hard to see it. It was only after hanging around on the forum, discovering to my surprise that I was not the only one coming from modx evo, going through the processwire basic website tutorial, that I had my "light bulb" experience. Long story short: put on the website of processwire that it is actually "a scalable modx evo on template variables steroids" and newbies will rush in more quickly and not miss the point. Of course I have put here just an example that does not cover processwire completely, but I think you get my idea. I think Luis ported office management suite to PW will be a good example. I'm sure there are more of them.

However, I must give modx the credit that during my time using modx, I learned really a lot from them. I think also their meetings with demonstrations in different countries and their ambassador program could also work for processwire.

Remember the days with philips video 2000 - betamax and vhs ? Philips video 2000 was technically the best system with the highest quality video, but, lost because vhs had the best marketing ! It doesn't matter how good a cms is, without good marketing it will not get known. We could copy marketing strategies from modx and drupal. Also a bit progressive marketing would certainly help. Something like: processwire = what modx and drupal should have become.

You like doing this kinda stuff, don't you. Thanks and saved the list.

I you want to work comfortable with photoshop first look if your macbook pro has a nvidia graphics card with lots of memory and good gpu.

According to your first post .htaccess must have at least: RewriteEngine on RewriteBase /fyp If that doesn't work, see if you get a 500 error when requesting a normal .html or .txt file.

Check this post: http://processwire.com/talk/topic/2177-server-error-500/

You still have a copy right ? Go step by step. Delete everything inside root/fyp. Install a fress PW inside root/fyp and get your .htaccess working for this fresh PW install. Save this .htaccess file. Delete everything and copy your old site to root/fyp. Now compare the old and new .htaccess files.

Luis, you did it again. You're not only a skilled coder but also a source of inspiration for processwire projects. Why is the youtube video without sound ? Makes it more difficult to follow.

Thanks Horst, Ryan and Philipp. Great module added to the repository. Processwire - connecting people.

Yes, look for a provider where, as your site grows, you can easily upgrade your hosting needs.

For that we should start organizing local PW meetings each in his or hers country.

Priceless

Ryan, the concept behind PW is clearly attracting people who are fed up with getting locked out with their creativity and for them failing roadmaps with other cms'es. I am sure one of them. What are your thoughts about a second core team member for the focus on PW you mentioned ? Donations won't fit the bill, a marketplace will. Keeping the cms free it is needless to say that a marketplace will make money both for PW and coders who add professional modules. And it will present PW also in the market out there. Have a look at the marketplace of concrete5 http://www.concrete5.org/marketplace/addons/

Clear and clean layout and good presentation of your business.

Promoting processwire is always good, but with such bold statements you should at least add some arguements to it. Before I ended up with processwire I evaluated getsimple and wolf cms. Getsimple has a fantastic backend and professional modules. Their forum is as active as the forum of processwire. In some channels even more active. It's been downloaded over 120.000 times. There's a reason for that. Getsimple is bound to xml for it's database so the performance will decrease beyond hundreds of pages. But then again, how many websites will be build between the 5 - 500 pages range ? How many between the 500 and thousands ? See what I mean ? Wolf cms has no more than a tabbed backend with tabs for pages, layout, snippets, files, etc. That's why it is very flexible because it leaves it up to you with it's api and your php coding skills. Wolf cms has no page limit, uses also sqlite3 and is compatible with php 5.4. The forum of wolf cms is almost dead but it is still updated on github.

goto localhost/, does the index.php there open up normally ? Put a few test scripts in www like testmysql.php or phpinfo.php, etc. Do they open up normally ? Check if the Apache module, rewrite_module is enabled. Since your processwire install is in a subfolder down the root www, did you adjust .htaccess ? RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /processwire Are you using friendly urls ? # If your processwire installation is in a subdirectory, change the following line to match the physical # path to the "root" of the site as follows: # RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /path/to/subdirectory/index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /cms/index.php?q=$1 [L,QSA]
