I’m on Cursor Ultra and have been for some time. Even on Ultra I am frequently hitting my plan limits and while I don’t mind paying more, I’m going to rely less on the highest end models soon and start trying auto mode more. I’ll try to do more manual coding for the tasks I can do and stop leaning on agents for CSS changes etc.

Cheer for the support Maximus. Having one of those days where I need a break from it all but more coming soon. Good to hear it’s useful.

How does everyone feel about folders? I have tags working but I am also considering Collections. A photo could belong to one or more collections. In the background I’d allow the agency/developer to rename collections as folders. I know collections are more powerful but many clients are more at home with the concept of folders. And I feel like, why make them choose?

Don’t forget Cursor cloud agents. Give a cloud agent a plan and the agent works in the background while you’re away from the laptop. I give them a task on the iPad when I’m at the gym and by the time I’m home there’s a new branch waiting for me. I can’t verify this but somehow I’ve often found the quality of the cloud agents to be better than the desktop ones even on the same model. Can’t be true? But feels that way.

Rethinking my Media Hub cropping model 😑 I discovered a limitation when adding images via my new ImageHub field: selecting a crop doesn’t add a second item. Instead, it replaces the first crop selection. Root cause: the field stores a PageArray / reference list keyed by page ID, so it silently dedupes. All crops belong to the same master image page (same ID), so you can only reference it once. I’m leaning toward treating each crop as its own image/page (unique ID) with a master_id link, so multiple crops can be selected, ordered, reused across pages, and tracked for “where used”.

It's good to see Cursor getting a bit of airtime and some mentions. Been using it since around 2024, and it's improving rapidly. The latest AI models too are impressive. It helps me with development, some UI design, SEO and pretty much is across 90% of my daily work these days apart from some design work. One of the best things about AI Agents is they can run in the cloud. So I'll often fire up a Cusror AI agent while I'm out for a walk or at the gym. I get home and the development work is ready for review and merge. I have yet to use Claude Code yet but I also see people speak highly of it. It's more terminal-based. Worth a look. Especially with Claude's new skills. Here's a good video from a Meta Engineer using CC.

Some updates to the Cursor MCP to Processwire Module. There's a new front-end called MCP Sync. So if the MCP server acted as a bridge between Processwire and Cursor, why do I then need a front-end UI? Surely the point of an MCP server was 50% to bypass the Admin? Well, apart from building it for fun, I thought it was nice to have a more visual front-end for the import and export of pages. From the screenshot you might notice a traditional tree view with some useful columns... Change Status Never exported - probably doesnt need a badge but just means it's the original state Local Changes - I've downloaded the page to a file and edited it In Sync - changes have been imported Conflict - both the remote (PW) and the local file) have changes In the Actions column the three icons are WTF (Wire to file) 🙂 - exporting FTW (File to wire) - importing This was a little tricky because import and export mean different things wether you're operating from Curors MCP or import/export via the Cursor UI. So I settled on WTF and FTW because they are less relative to your environment. Big change Previously, when a page was in WTF mod,e I was storing a YAML file. Apart from Matrix items which were separate YAML files. But as we know, YAML can be prone to misformatting so the Module now understands if a field is a Rich Text field and will export that as a stand alone HTML file with a match name. It's means a few more files on the file system than the previous method but I like that I get a separate HTML entity. The screenshot of my local file system you can see I have WTF my Diagram and Illustrations page. And not just because the content was out of date and mentioned Macromedia Flash! Back to the GUI, you can see a screenshot of that row now picks up the change requiring a FTW. There's a few other helpful functions such as a changes preview as a safety step prior to committing a FTW. There's also a View YAML icon on each row which is a preview too. Here's the raw details of my WTF of Diagram and Illustrations page site/assets/pw-mcp/services/diagrams-illustration/page.meta.json This is a high-level overview of the exported page and is not meant to be edited. { "_readme": "DO NOT EDIT - This file is auto-generated.

Yeah sure. This is how I’m proceeding… Every file is a page and has its own id folder. I guess that part is predictable enough. Crops are simply variations of an image. They are stored in the same id folder with their own unique name. Re. image fields, there’s a custom field which is designed to look and feel like a normal image field, but isn't a regular image field. A user adds images to the image hub field, but they are living, connected references to the source hub. IE the image hub assets are not detached copies. The hub is meant to be the centralised media hub. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be much of a hub. At least that’s how it’s working right now. 🙂

Some more work. Not sure why the images are so fuzzy Image detail page You can edit the usual stuff...Title, Alt, Description, and add Tags etc Some utilities in there too such as Download, Copy URl, Duplicate, Delete If an image has Crop versions they are displayed under the main image Crop versions has thumbs and table view A crop version has a detailed view too Image Crop page There are presets, but you can create your own named crops Save as a crop version or save as a new image. The hardest part is in progress which is A custom Inputfield which allows you to add images from the MediaHub. All while maintaining a connection back to the hub source file. IE it's important that there's no duplication and that the images in the Media Hub are a true source / canonical version Displaying images in the page edit field in a nice consistent way with the existing UI. As much as possible, I want the user to feel like this the core and not some bolt-on with its own CSS. Although I am changing some things… Hope you like! P

Hey everyone, I have some updates to MediaHub to share. Media Hub view Screenshot of the Grid view... This is the grid view showing a thumbnail of all your images. Each card has helpful meta data (PNG, file size etc) Some images have crop applied denoted by the small pink badge. IE Lisbon tiles has 4 crop versions. Usual filters at the top and a search bar. Screenshot of the Table view. Handy if you have hundreds of images Displays tags too Screenshot of the Upload / Drag and drop mode There's some nice aniamtion / UI when the system is uploading several images Tomorrow I'll share more...

I'd love some early testers, Stefan. Thanks for the offer. If you're interested in trying it on a non-commercial site and are happy with temporarily breaking changes, I will be in touch when I'm a bit closer to the first version.

I think that sums it up 🙂

Hey, I've started to create a Media Hub for Processwire. [Edit...newest updates to UI are in later posts] Screenshots attached. Obviously a few UI improvements are needed 🙂 One of my clients requested a centralised media manager. I thought it'd be fun to give it a go and learn some stuff. I know that with a self-built Module, it'll always be maintained, and I have an active interest in evolving it. Shout out to @markus-th who just announced he is doing similar with WireMedia.

That looks great. I've started one too as of last night. Mainly for my own learning and amusement, but I think a solid, maintained Module like this is badly needed.

Agree. I'm doing a ton of work lately on the SEO space which I could help apply. I know people here from agencies might want to contribute too.
