I thought of a concept and it doesn't have to be as complex infact here's my proposition There should be a changelog.md and also another changelog.json which contains each version and the text serving as the changes, however this might hard to implement as it means enforcing everyone to do this, another better alternative could be a changelog.md with a specific format to follow, so that a Parser can be read to extract the needed information, it is vital a changelog is seen before uploading to inform user about what has changed and what to expect.

is there any progress on having Changelogs for an update, so we can know if some updates are worth updating to.

As long as he's not the owner of the source i don't think it's proper to create pages for the feeds that would change over-time, the only thing I can say is too fetch the XML Feeds and create a Cache for that maybe like 1 hour, to save speed.

The major difference for me is the how detailed it is for me to write Twig Extensions, especially in OOP manner asides that they are quite similar.

After picking up Symfony, I think i might migrate my PW from Smarty to Twig,

Is it possible to use TracyDebugger to inspect what the count is and if indeed it is an integer and not string

@kongondo Seriously this is an awesome job, I use the blog alot and this looks really clean and 'lit'. Can't wait for the new UiKit however would there be a guide to other devs so their Modules looks clean with the new UI

if you to make things easier, you can create an API sitting infront of the DB so from PW you simply call that API and based on the Data needed the API will fetch it from the relevant Database. However this might mean all call-centers having their own API so each can easily communicate because I doubt it would be easy to connect to their DB remotely directly.

Not really, what the addHookProperty does is to run that code and inject your data from the database into Page::courseData in TLDR it dynamically creates the courseData property in the Page class.

Yep this works. Though once a cache is in place for that DB call there, I can say this seems like the solution and satisfies what OP needs.

Adrian is right if calling external database you can use WireDatabasePDO, it's a wrapper around PDO and additional method,

If I am to get this straight you are looking to have Processwire render a page but the details are not coming the PW Database, it's trying to set data to PW instance during runtime, making it seem like it's serving from a page. Indeed this is quite odd. Am curious why ?

Hi Beate, Congrats on the migration also this is how it goes, First you need to go the your Fields and see the name of the fields that hold the comments, then all you need to do is to $fields->find("comment_field_selector,sort=date,limit=AMOUNT_OF_COMMENT");

This is so awkward, The issue was sorted out but i actually forgot to reply to this forum as i didn't get any notification. thanks

Hi I noticed during development of Modules, if i attempt to use Process::setViewFile it calls the current TemplateFactoryEngine which in my case is the Smarty Engine and attempts to look for a view in the site, I want to create modules with external templates rather than having templates in the code. I want to ask if there's a current way to stop this action. I will research and find out but i won't mind pointers thanks.

I feel silly sorry, it works all it needs is all the dependencies specified

Am resurrecting this topic because I noticed after adding the plugin 'CodeSnippet' it tries to read from the wire folder rather than the site modules, but if there's an update won't the folder be deleted ? http://okeowoaderemi.com/wire/modules/Inputfield/InputfieldCKEditor/ckeditor-4.5.5/plugins/widget/plugin.js?t=2015030801.156

Yes it does there's a setting for caching and lifetime, I think it's using Smarty Caching only gives you an interface around it, here is the module http://modules.processwire.com/modules/template-engine-smarty/

This is the main layout where other sub templates will be injected into plain.tpl <div class="header-container" id="header-container"> <!-- Site navigation --> {include '../elements/nav.tpl'} <!-- The title of the site --> </div> <div class="wrapper"> <div class="page-content"> <div class="post"> <header class="post-header"> <h1 class="post-title">{$page->title}</h1> <p class="post-meta">{$page->published|date_format:"%A, %e %B %Y"}</p> </header> <!-- Beginning Twitter sharing Large button --> <a class="twitter-share-button" href="https://twitter.com/share" data-related="twitterdev" data-size="large" data-count="horizontal"> Tweet </a> <!-- End of Twitter sharing button --> <article class="post-content"> {block name="content"}{/block} </article> <hr> Notice the block name "content" assuming a visitor navigates to my about page here is the file for the about view about.tpl {extends '../layout/plain.tpl'} {block name="content"} {$page->body} {/block} See how clean and easy it is

Go with Smarty there's a module for Smarty it's what i use if you are familiar with Twig, ASP Master Pages and all it's similar let me post some codes

I started a tutorial but never got to finish it as Work got more tedious it has enough to get started. hopefully i should finish this off assuming API hasn't changed

Thanks already altered the core code, but i am going to inform the client that disadvantage of not taking emails... really requests like this make me want to quit frontend and do Backend totally.

is there a way to disable email field in the comment form, as in I don't want the email form to be rendered...... Client Specific request , I know it sounds weird

Your roles requirements are very basic so you can go with Processwire as for building a frontend on PW that's very achievable

Not familiar with Laravel that much but I will talk on Yii2, Yii2 has a class responsible for adding Roles and Permissions, the roles are stored in the Database and there's a console tool to aid in creating of Roles, however how it works in Yii2 is that you create roles , create permissions, and you can also create more complex roles system in a way that goes like this Younglinh -> Padawan -> Jedi Knight -> Jedi Master with each higher roles having the existing permissions of the lower role, and when creating a user all you simply do is assign a user to a role, to use it, you simple check the users role and also infer if the user has permission to access that resource. http://www.yiiframework.com/doc-2.0/guide-security-authorization.html#access-control-filter you will see how it's implemented here. However since Processwire works with composer easily, there should be package around this.
