  1. @Robin S Ok, I played around with this and can 100% determine that in your code, the following line is causing the issue: 'id.sort' => $merged_ids, The $merged_ids array is in the correct order before finding all the pages using the ids. Once that $pages->find executes with the id.sort, it's messing up the order again based on PW/MySQL's own determination of relevancy for sorting. I guess I could loop through the merged ID's array and grab each one with an individual $pages->get, but that seems ultra wasteful.
  2. @Robin S I appreciate you going to this trouble, however it didn't work for me. It's still pages 2 or 3 before I find any product results. I see where you're going with this though and will test and investigate further when I have more time tomorrow. Thanks.
  3. @Robin S Ok thanks Robin. Doesn't really address my issue in this case, but good to know this exists as once I get things working the way I want, I'm going to uncap the limits and will need decent performance for the paging.
  4. @Robin S I tried your module and all it seems to be doing is the same as $pages->add(). The results from my second selector are just being appended on to the results of the first, not actually merging the two together. I must be doing something wrong? Here's my code: $selectors = [ "productSKU|productModel|productShortName|brand|title|summary|content~=$q,template=product,limit=8", "title|summary|content%=$q,template=video|btt|article|item|case-study|testimonial|diagram,limit=12" ]; $options = [ 'limit' => 20 ]; $results = $pages->findMerge($selectors, $options);
  5. DaveP, what you're suggesting is in fact what I'm doing now, or at least close to it. However, I'm having to randomize the combined 10 as I can't figure out how to rank by relevancy between the two arrays. At least I can't see any info regarding relevancy that's returned by PW (maybe I missed it in the arrays). I can live with this solution, so long as I can figure out relevancy ranking with the merged results. It's not ideal and seems like a hack workaround, but it would suffice in this instance. Just seems weird to me that there's no easy way to tell PW that Template A results are more relevant than Template B.
  6. Thanks for the suggestions. I don't think I explained myself well enough. I'm really not concerned with pagination at this point. What I'm ultimately trying to achieve is a blend of ranked results from two different templates, but not in the usual "most relevant" sorting method PW uses by default. I still want "Most Relevant" but I want more results to be pulled from Template A than I do Template B. A real simplistic explanation would be something like: for every 2 Template A results, get a Template B result. Not quite literally as 2:1, I still want a variable blend based on relevancy, I just want more results of Template A showing up than B. Some context: I have a website that is both information pages and eCommerce product pages. I want search results to always contain eCommerce products as well as information pages, based on relevancy. My problem is that there are thousands of information pages so when I search for something, those information pages dominate the results and I don't end up seeing an eCommerce product until page 2 or 3 of the results.
  7. Not sure how best to go about this and I've tried a few things without success. I'm trying to construct a $pages->find() with a selector that will give preference to a specific template over all others. Ideally I'm trying to get a good mix of "Template A" and "Template B" pages where normally I would just get all Template B results out of thousands of pages even though my specific search terms are part of Template A pages as well. Standard find would be something like: $pages->find("template=templateA|templateB,title*=searchTerm,limit=10") How do I re-do the above to prefer templateB results, but not exclusively?
  8. Totally agree to this. I imagine most common case-use scenarios would be for using Decimal rather than Float. Given the additional confusion with Float and how the numbers get manipulated (which isn't readily clear anywhere that I could see), it definitely seems like Float should not be the default option that's installed.
  9. Oh, just figured out there's a "Decimal" fieldtype in the core that isn't installed by default. This looks like it will do the trick. Thanks everyone.
  10. Ok, so this is getting over my head a bit. My numbers are not scientific notation, I just want a way in PW to be able to specify a 7 or 8 digit number, possibly with 2 decimal places and have it not manipulated in any way. I guess I could just use a text field, but that defeats the purpose.
  11. Created a new float field and it is converting any numbers past the 6th to zero. Example: I enter 123456789 in to the field and after saving the number is 123456000. I have checked and ensured the character limit is set to it's default "10". I also tried "0" and "999". None of that worked. PW version 3.0.184 SOLUTION: use the "Decimal" fieldtype that is built in to the core. It's not installed by default, you need to enable it in Modules > Core.
  12. I did get it working! It took A LOT of time and money, but I eventually got it working. Their documentation is A) terrible and even B) misleading. I'll shoot you a message and we can pick this up in email (it'll be easier that way).
  13. Yes I've tried it with and without $raw_output. 'website' really is the API username.
  14. I'm at the end of my rope! I've been trying to use a 3rd party API that requires authorization. I've tried a zillion different ways in both cURL and wireHTTP. cURL always tells me the signature is wrong. wireHTTP returns 401 unauthorized. Here's the brief documentation for authorization with the API: https://integrate.spektrix.com/docs/authentication Here's the latest version of my wireHTTP code: $date = date(DATE_RFC1123); $string = "GET\n/sidwilliams/api/v3/customers/I-KS22-363P/\n$date"; $string = utf8_encode($string); $key = base64_decode('XXXX'); $signature = base64_encode(hash_hmac('sha1', $string, $key)); $http = new WireHttp(); $http->setHeader('Host', 'system.spektrix.com'); $http->setHeader('Date', $date); $http->setHeader('Authorization', 'SpektrixAPI3 website:' . $signature); $response = $http->get('https://system.spektrix.com/sidwilliams/api/v3/customers/I-KS22-363P/'); if($response === false) { echo $http->getError(); }else{ echo $response; } If anyone is interested in seeing my cURL, I can post that too. Thanks!
  15. Thanks to both of you for the feedback. Maybe I'm approaching this wrong. All I'm storing is time stamps. There's a hierarchical organization of pages and within these, a need to store time stamps. I considered JSON at a lower sub-level of pages, but even then, the JSON would get too large for the MySQL character limit for the text field. Also, the JSON would become time consuming to process and work with. Is there a better way of storing millions of time stamps that I'm not thinking of?
  16. I'm developing a web app in PW and have a lot of PW experience. However, this particular project will be very large scale and I have some questions. The "app" will be creating approximately 3000 pages per day at launch and continue to grow with an expected 300,000 pages per day after a few months. As you can see, even after half a year I will be over 100+ million pages. Frankly, this seems ridiculous, but it's the case. 1. Can ProcessWire even handle this? 2. Does it just come down to server capabilities? 3. Should I consider trying to break this down to separate multiple databases? 4. Alternately, instead of Pages, should I look at using fields instead? Maybe storing JSON in a text field? This would reduce the amount of pages to less than 100 per day, even after half a year. I presume the database itself would still get very large. Thoughts? Thanks.
  17. No restrictions on the address (I've experimented a lot with the module restrictions) and I have it whitelisted in the SPAM filter. It's weird that from that same address, some emails work fine and some don't. I would expect that it would be all or nothing. At any rate, I may work on switching the module over from the Flourish library to the newer/better/maintained Fetch library. Another approach I'm toying with is to just have the email address pipe to a script on the server that bootstraps PW's index.php and simply creates the page. No need to mess around with checking an email account, etc.
  18. Rather than take over, I'd probably just do something from scratch. However, I'm extremely short on time at the moment. Heck, I don't even have time to be trying to debug this issue my client is having. Embarrassingly, at the moment I'm just processing his emails by hand as it's faster for me to just manually input his 2 or 3 emails a week than it is to try and fix this thing. Obviously not a long-term solution, but something I can afford to do with my limited time.
  19. Not sure if this is dead or if anyone is still working on it. I have a problem where emails sent from Outlook only work about 20% of the time. The other 80% the module just leaves sitting on the mail server untouched. I can't seem to find any reason why. If I send the exact same email from a non-outlook client, the module picks it up no problem. Any ideas why this may be the case?
  20. Adrain, thanks for your time and input on this. Definitely easier to have Ryan relax the limit. Robin, that is a clever solution with URL segments. While I don't normally like work-arounds like this, it may be the only solution at this point.
  21. Unfortunately this didn't work. Name field is now varchar(256) and the name is still being truncated at some point after $sanitizer->pageName happens. I also changed InputfieldName to 256 and ensured InputfieldPageName was also 256. Still doesn't work.
  22. Teppo, you are of course right. Thanks for your diplomatic reply and placing some perspective on this. This is a very edge case and the first time I've encountered this need. It's specific to this one project and unfortunately, necessary. All major web browsers and the http spec itself have supported 2048 character URLs for nearly two decades now. Hence I find it interesting that PW's character limit is 128. However, I don't know the reasons behind it, be it database or other efficiency related issues. Unfortunately segments won't solve my issue. I need the URL to be a direct match with the page title. I'll change the table varchar to 256 and see what happens - seems like it could be the culprit.
  23. Ok, as a workaround I created a script that uses $sanitizer->pageName where I can set the maxlength option to 256. While this works, it doesn't solve the problem of my client creating pages and having correct URL's. I guess I can always hook in to the page save and rewrite the name, but that seems ridiculous. There has to be some easy way to tell processwire to just allow 256 character names when saving new pages. Ok I was wrong. I thought for a moment my script worked, but it didn't. Even using $sanitizer->pageName with the maxlength set to 256 doesn't work. It gets overridden somewhere and truncated to 128.
  24. Yikes! This is a major issue for me. Any ideas about how to work around this? A character limit of 128 on page names seems kind of messed up. I wonder what Ryan's logic is behind this decision. At least relaxing it to 256 would surely be acceptable?
  25. Ouch, ok NOT solved. The PW version I'm running is 3.0.131, much newer than 3.0.86 that addressed this issue. What am I missing here? Do I need to configure something somewhere to allow more than the default 128 characters?
