are there any programming experts on this forum?
Beluga replied to franci77's topic in General Support
Leaving this here to give a UX perspective: http://shouldiuseacarousel.com/ I guess carousels are ok, if they don't involve links or if they don't auto-play. Otherwise they give a negative experience. -
The inventor of the Wiki certainly hasn't thrown in the towel, but is constantly pushing the envelope: https://github.com/WardCunningham/Smallest-Federated-Wiki Page with lots of videos about the federated approach: http://wardcunningham.github.io/

Dont listen to the pragmatist! Seriously though, I have been known to offer money in the hopes that some PW dev would get inspired to create community/forum building blocks. I'm again offering 500 euros towards any forum features, so now the budget is $10k + 500 €!

Yes this is what I was trying to say (and I guess have said in other threads)

I see modules for payment gateways as out of scope. These would appear on a per-need basis, built as people build their shops. At least for Finnish payment gateways, with their provided example code it takes a PHP dev a single day to build a working module. No comments on PayPal.. I'd like to see some kind of toolkit to work with these: - building payment modules - orders and order tracking - customers and groups - products/product combinations and categories - stock management - currencies and taxes - discounts - shipping price rules (destination, weight, dimensions) If we look at an open source project like PrestaShop, the devs are working their butts off, but they are supporting a complete package and putting huge amounts of time into backend and frontend templates, marketing features, gamification (!!) and innumerable modules that are not the bare necessity. This effects the development pace of important features: for example their CSV import feature was released over two years ago and it still doesn't support all of their product and stock management features! @Macrura: Foxycart is not open source.

Did you go through these: http://wiki.processwire.com/index.php/Category:Long_Tutorials Note that they are just one way out of many to do these things.

Would be cool to see people post their own login/reg systems in the PW wiki, though.

How could this method be adapted in place of the current method in the obfuscator module: http://johnhaller.com/useful-stuff/obfuscate-mailto/code-php

Ok now I saw that one of the presets was YMj and not Ymd as I claimed. I'll just convert my dates then, it's no big problem. Edit: here's how to convert dates from ddmmyyyy to any other format: http://jacksonjose.wordpress.com/2012/01/10/change-date-format-in-excel-from-ddmmyyyy-to-ddmmyyyy/ =DATE(RIGHT(B2,4),MID(B2,LEN(B2)-6+1,2),LEFT(B2,LEN(B2)-6)) Replace commas with semicolons in Libreoffice (and remember that you have to use function names specific to your language, so in a Finnish LO version DATE becomes PÄIVÄYS etc.).
-
But Ymd doesn't have a delimiter and it works (actually can't check right now, but Ymd was one of the preset input types). I only have dmY as my input need, not the output need. I just have a lot of file names created by myself which have dmY format dates in them (common in Finland). I'm going to grab those to a spreadsheet and finally CSV-import stuff to PW, but I guess I can convert them to some other format in the spreadsheet, if you are sure that this is not a bug.
-
If I change the date format for the input to dmY and input a value of 02052013, it changes to 24011970. This with the latest dev version 2.3.7. Can others reproduce?

http://css-tricks.com/introducing-scut-new-sass-utility-library/ http://davidtheclark.github.io/scut/ This is so in tune with the spirit of Processwire I thought I have to make a post. In the CSS Tricks article comments you can find some other people, who are building similar libraries.

Maybe the migration documentation will be better by Jan 2014, but I thought I'd share this little rant:
-
Well autoplaying carousels with relevant stuff like links can be pretty annoying. Also, low-contrast text. Then there are those funny modal overlays that are supposed to act as paywalls, but can be deleted with browser dev tools..

I guess it's this: http://bugs.jqueryui.com/ticket/8297 (closed bug: notabug) Resolution set to invalid jQuery and jQuery UI do not support setting overflow on the body or html.

I have just built a shop using Prestashop and I had to create many little modules and overrides because the shop owner has very specific ways of working and also a unique customer type (food clubs). The documentation of what I had to build or copy/modify from others now consists of 10 different sections. Working with the database structure was tiring as always (hunting where everything is stored). Maybe I should post the documentation on the PW forums sometime so you can evaluate, if all of it would have been possible already with PW + Antti's module.

Did you see this: http://processwire.com/talk/topic/4892-an-almost-mvc-approach-to-using-templates/
-
PW in itself, yes, but I don't see why a 3rd party module shouldn't explore this. I also wouldn't call existing open source forum solutions "exceptional" (Discourse was started because of stagnation in the forum world). I just think someone clever might be able to create a forum toolkit for PW that would allow people to build different takes of forum-like interaction as opposed to a ready-made solution.

I can confirm the inflexibility. I even translated the newest version of the extension SEBLOD CCK to Finnish and now I will never use it.. I also used Yootheme's Zoo, which was ok at the time. What's interesting is that Yootheme just announced a new CMS built with Symfony: http://pagekit.com/ It uses their front-end framework: http://www.getuikit.com/

It's about setting a "radically" higher minimum requirement for a project like PW or WP or Joomla to pressure hosting services to offer newer versions of PHP. So in this scenario PW would have a minimum req. of PHP 5.5 by summer 2014.
-
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/php-fig/ogp03OHbVJ0 The framework interoperability guys are gathering forces to push newer versions of PHP. The above quote rings true to me. Any thoughts on when PW should drop 5.3 support and have 5.4 as a minimum? Or does it all depend on Wordpress ?

When the email address is copied and pasted, it is right-to-left. Wouldn't it be better, if copying+pasting worked normally?

Would be cool to create a project management system using Processwire.. with the help of something like http://dhtmlx.com/ components. What do you think?

Captchas are bad user experience anyways.. use a blacklist like http://stopforumspam.com/
