  1. Look into increasing the max file upload size in your php configuration file (php.ini). I had the same problem and this helped after I increased it. Set it something like 100mb even if you know you won't need that much.
  2. JJS, I think what others are trying to say is that you can't take the code from Wordpress plugins and easily integrate it into PW. If you want to use PW then you need to use PW framework and forget about Wordpress. Wordpress' PHP does not work with PW. They are two completely different systems. There are some PW modules created by the community that will work with what you are desiring, like putting the site into maintenance mode or language translations or tagging. But for other features, like a members only section, you are going to have to dig into the forums and learn how others have implemented into their sites. Just ask very specific questions and you will get the answers. Break your project down into what you need and ask away!
  3. Personally, I would do it with jquery versus CSS3 since javascript will be supported by all browsers. Unless of course, javascript it turned off. Its 2012. Who browses without javascript?
  4. Hayden, welcome to PW. The ability to publish and unpublish has been made into a module. You can download it here. After you have installed it, you can click on your page in the admin and publish / unpublish it. There is also another module to hide / show a page. I'm not really sure what the difference between the two but I'm sure someone will explain shortly.
  5. I recently followed the advice from this page about browser caching and it appears to make one of my PW sites load faster. I'm curious as if this is already done in PW and if not, why it is not being implemented in the core. Thoughts?
  6. I have an idea for a site where users could post a service that they offer and other users could connect with them. One example site is Freelancify which was built with RoR. Is it possible to create something like this in PW and if so how could I get started? Or am I as a php newbie over my head and really am looking at creating a custom PHP or RoR based CMS?
  7. Marty - you can use use repeaters for images and also move the order of the images around by simply drag and drop!
  8. Fmgujju, nice work on your first site and thanks for sharing. One suggestion: on the home page, perhaps you could simply display all events, even if they are past and present. Therefore it wouldn't look like nothing is going on even if there is no future events coming up. The same with the news box. I realize that currently isn't any news, but perhaps it could display the last news item.
  9. Wow Ryan. I'm impressed. Not only are you a rock star developer but you also kick ass in the design realm! The design is super clean and the site is easy to navigate. I love the slab serif type. It fits in nicely with the schools crest. Those guys at the school must be gushing over their site and CMS. Thanks for sharing and showing what is possible with PW. Anyway we could see some admin pages for some basic pages? Screenshots? Just curious as to how you are setting this all up on the backend. Kinda unrelated, but do you know of a way to have a site's contact form / application form to fill in a pre-existing pdf form that could be filled in and emailed upon submission?
  10. Yes! You guys rock. This is exactly what I need for a client's site. I will test and might be back with more questions. Thanks!
  11. Slkwrm, I set up a new template and called it members template. At the top of that I put in this check: <?php if ($user->viewable_pages->has($page)) { echo $page->body; } else { echo "Nope"; }; ?> But I keep getting this in the error logs: Error Call to a member function has() on a non-object, and the user content is not displayed.
  12. Yes, that is exactly what I need.
  13. I'm trying to implement something similar to what onjegolders is trying to do. My problem has to do with redirecting the user to the page. For example I have this below in a custom login form: if($user->isSuperuser()) { $session->redirect('/admin/'); } elseif ($user->hasRole(editor)) { $session->redirect('/admin/'); } else { $session->redirect('/members/'); } But I need a variable to redirect the user to "their" page. I have already set up a new user with roles and a unique template. So something like this: elseif ($user->hasRole(guest-member)) { $session->redirect('/UNIQUE PAGE PATH TO USER/'); } Where UNIQUE PAGE PATH TO USER is based on their login info in this case their user name and password. Any suggestions?
  14. Elequently worded Reno and I can see your point and position. I think I can agree with you on this. Sorry to hijack the ClintonSkakun's forum on developing a module for forms! BTW I would like to help with creating an additional form module. Let me know ClintonSkakun how I can help. I will look into some more about the php class and how it can ride on PW.
  15. Thanks @Martijn Geerts. I will give it a read. Good to see that this has perhaps already been discussed.
  16. Martijn Geerts: I knew I might stir up the bees nest. I'm not dissing on Ryan's work at all and saying that it is not appreciated. Perhaps we should have a donation option for those that would like to support PW. I would love to support Ryan's work and expenses, even supporting the hosting for this site and the forums. I think that would be a better gesture of support than by buying code.
  17. Thanks Clinton! That looks like a promising start. Please do keep us up to date. I know Ryan has kicked out a form builder module (and its sweet!), but he has stuck a price tag on it. I realize that he has spent a lot of time on it, but I would prefer if PW was just users helping one another out and not trying to turn a profit. So thanks for taking a stab at this!!
  18. I'm trying to wrap my head around how to implement a members only section of a site where specific content could be delivered to a site visitor based on their login credentials. For example, "Sarah" logins and she sees content only specified for her and "Bob" logins and sees only content for him, and so on. And it would also need to be easy for the site administrator to easily add the login credentials, and then also easily add content for that user. I have a client who wants to be able to share videos with potential customers and they don't want the general public to see these videos. I have done a PW site that has a members only section, but everyone sees the same content since they have the same login info. I'm thinking that I would have to have the site admin be able to add a new role to a user to be able to view a page specific to them. Can this be done with PW and if so, does anyone have suggestions as to how I can implement this? Thanks!
  19. Nico, I'm not suggesting that it be elsewhere. I'm just boo-hooing that there is a lack of support in the US. O well. I wish PW was more popular over here. And I will continue to spread the word about how great the system is!!
  20. Sigh, I'm not in the UK. What about something in the States? And how come PW seems to not be popular in the US? Is it that Wordpress is so popular here? Is Wordpress popular overseas?
  21. Ryan, what about an option in the module to a play a video in a modal overlay?
  22. Ryan, this looks great! I will have to give it a test soon! What about having required fields on the comments section? And yes a color picker would be key. Thanks for your great start!
  23. Can anyone recommend how to do version control on a mac for a single user? What apps are you using to do this? Links to a beginner's guide?
  24. Diogo beat me to it. But I will reiterate one of his comments I think this is what make wordpress so attractive for many people who can't code. They can download a wordpress theme and if it supports customization then they can easily change out header images, fonts, text color.
  25. WillyC, you the man. That worked like a charm. I forgot to say "misjgoth" but it still worked!
