  1. Hello, Ajax Search looks lovely! Would it work on Blog Profile 1.0.1? From I've seen, the search.php and Form id are different from Processwire 2.4.0, so I'd have to edit both the search.php and the settings of the module ("Class or id of the search form", "Class or id of the search input field"), right? So, if anyone already did it, please tell me what edits did you make, I failed to make it work... Thank you!
  2. Wow! So many useful replies already! @ pwired - thanks for posting those links! Very useful to start with! @ Martijn Geerts - kinda true, PW has more basic features than many of orher cms (but not instantly applicable). Thanks for Font Awesome suggestion @ diogo - Thanks for your patience and suggestions. Very good tips, it will help for sure! Form Processor is good for start, Ryan's template is Awesome Your replies are very "refreshing", they reinforce my initial feeling that PW has so much potential! It looks like PW offers Great Rewarding with Little Learning. So I should do the learning. For the moment I'll stick to PW for my personal projects and learning. Well, I guess it just sounds that way. As I said, my mind doesn't really get it yet but my heart (unconscious mind) loves PW. I trust my unconscious mind! And I am very happy this forum has so many skilled and helpful guys. Thanks all for replies. I will start with A-B-C. Thanks! I'am glad I found PW and this Forum! Have a nice day!
  3. Hello! First of all, I have just registered at Processwire / Forum so it's possible that I am posting in the wrong place. Sorry if that's the case. Now, straight to the subject: For the latest weeks I've been Testing CMS solutions for small to medium websites. The initial list had about 50 platforms. I have personally tried - download/install/customize - about 20 of them. Now, my list has only about 4 CMS platforms and Processwire is one of them... I don't really understand how or why but I found myself coming back again and again at Processwire... My Mind doesn't understand very well PW but my Heart is somehow in love with PW. Important: I am NOT a coder and I'll never be. For the moment, I deeply regret Processwire IS NOT a "Ready To Go" CMS. I have to build a few small sites and I don't have the Time and Knowledge to Code! For the the first 2 websites (small and simple) I have already used other CMS platforms but I was hopping to make Processwire WORK! And I still hope but time is short... When I say I'd like "Processwire to Work" I mean it LACKS too many BASIC Features, so I can't use PW for my projects yet. Here they are: -No "Contact Us" or News / Newsletter feature or module - at least a Contact Form with Name and Email it's a Must! -Awful Text Editor! No Alignment and worse, NO Font Color changing - thats almost unusable! I've lost my patience trying to make CKEditor work... -No Image Gallery? The image(s) open in full resolution. No Next-Previous, Back or Close. The BlogProfile has it, and a very good one! Why Processwire not?... -Multilanguage Suport but NO Language Switch for Frontend... no comment. -No Friendly management of Logo's, Banner or Frontend skin... and NO Social Sharing... (I mean Facebook, Tweeter, Google+ etc) Conclusion: Not Easy / Friendly, not Ready To Go. It seems it's designed for geeks and a good option for medium/big websites. Now, don't get me wrong! There is something I LOVE at PW... I don't know exactly what... it's nice, clean and fast and... I don't know, I Like it! What I want to say is that with people like you (on this forum, including Ryan Cramer) Processwire COULD become twice as Usable in 2-3 months... OK, that's it... I dont know if my post deserves an answer, I guess I have to stick to what I used already (ImpressPages, Concrete 5, Silverstripe) and, the most important, have patience and LEARN Processwire. Thank You and Apologize! PS: I will complete my profile later, I just arrived!
