  1. Hi all. We're a small web firm out of Pennsylvania, USA. We're seeking a reliable web developer to collaborate with in the completion of a project built on Processwire. We'll need to team up with someone that is: US-based, preferably on the east coast (same timezone) Responsive and reliable - will respond to questions in a timely manor A frontend developer - can take existing HTML/CSS/JS and built on them to complete required front end specs A backend/Processwire developer - can take existing PW templates and build on them to complete required back end specs Some key features that need to be implemented are: Build listing and detail pages for 3 collections of records (e.g. blog, products, companies) Implement ajax driven filtering and sorting on the listed records User registration - Users can manage profile and mark specific records (products) as favorite Some additional details: This project contains products but is not a transactionall website. It is not an eCommerce site, no cart, checkout, etc. The design work is complete. The records are already being populated by the client using PW The PW edit pages and structure are in place although additional work will be required to support registered users We would like to complete the website by mid- November, 2017. We can certainly provide additional details to those that are interested. Please send us an email.
  2. Thanks. It worked. What's this ready.php file do? I suppose I need to create this?
  3. Hi all. I setup a repeater. I'd like to use a unique label for each repeater item. I opted to use the repeater's index number. Perfect, but it's adding the pound (#) sign in the label. Can I include the repeater index number without the pound sign? How? See my repeater item below (screen shot)
  4. Thanks for the response. I need the width so I can set the max-width css property of the img tag. I need the value of the width. Is there a Processwire method/function for that which I can use when coding my Hanna Code?
  5. Hi all, I created a Hanna Code that allows a client to embed a image. First they upload an image to the page (using the images field). Then they use Hanna Code to embed it. The Hanna Code looks like the following. [[image file='myimage.jpg' caption="my image" align='center']] I'd like to set a max-width on the generated HTML img tag. I need the width of the image. How can I get it? So I need a way to get the image width based on the name of the image? Any ideas?
  6. This is exactly what I needed. Exactly! Thanks. And I should thank you for pretty much co-developing this module.
  7. Gotcha. Thanks. I found this article for those in the same boat as me.
  8. "tpr", I do appreciate that resource. Thank you. That would in fact get me to where I want to be but it's a bit much. I like to keep it light and tidy. I only need about 1% of what that module offers. "louisstephens", Thanks. I'm using a Markdown formatter on a textarea field. I suppose 'Auto Grow' won't fit the bill for that?
  9. Hi all, I'm interested in making a small enhancement to the textarea fields that display in the panel/backend (when a user is editing a page). I want the textarea fields to expand automatically based on the content within the field. To do this I want to apply 'Autosize', a small stand alone js script. I don't know how to make this happen. Before I begin an epic journey through PW's less than awesome docs can you good folks point me in the right direction?
  10. Hello. I was excited about the latest admin uikit . I was assuming there would be some unveiling of a stable admin theme. News of the new uikit seemed to fade away. Is there any news regarding a new default admin theme?
  11. Hi all. I'd like to use the "Page Autocomplete" field to allow the user to select pages (categories in my case). I have sub levels of categories. I'd like to allow the user to create a new category directly from the field. I can do this. This is an option of the "Page Autocomplete" field, but the user will not be able to choose the parent category (if any). So this means they can't add sub categories. Is there a way to allow a user to create a page at any level from an edit screen with "Page Autocomplete" or any other field type? Thanks.
  12. Awesome. Thank you greatly. Just for the record you mean... $v->column_name
  13. I've owned this profield for a long time. I guess I never really used it. It outputs a html table. I know there's gotta be a way to grab just the values. I'm not interested in PW generating my HTML (that's what Wordpress is for). Before I spend time digging, can you good folks let me know how I can just pull the values. Some foreach loop...? Thanks.
  14. Thanks for the confirmation. In my case, even if I get this handy dependent selects feature to work, it would not fit the bill of allowing the user to select multiple pre-defined specs and values. Unfortunatley, this would only allow one spec to be defined. I've come up with a elegant solution though. I've opted for the AsmSelect field that targets the spec values (e.g. blue). And Instead of just using the spec page/value as the label I included the page's parent too (color: blue) which makes it clear when viewing the list. See shoot below. And I included a link in the field's notes so they can quickly jump over to the appropriate location if they wish to add a new spec type or spec value. Now that should allow me to safely gather the appropriate data to setup those filters. That's the next bridge I'll be crossing. Thanks again.
  15. Hmmm... I can't even get to this work when I ditch the idea of using the fields in a profield table. I just have two page reference fields on a page - one targets a group of pages and allows the use to select one of 'em. the other page reference field should target the children of the page selected in the first page reference field and allow them to select multiple. Of course the first page reference field works fine (nothing special there), but the other doesn't seem to do anything based on the selection. Drat. I'm using a select on one and a asmselect on the other. both fields are using the 'selector string' option for defining the target pages. Any other vital step I'm missing? Thanks for your time.
  16. Robin, Would this Ajax feature work if the page reference fields were in a Profields Table field? Take a look at the attached. This doesn't seem to work. Any help? Just to be clear, I'm looking to set up 2 select fields in a table row. One column will select a page. The other column will select the children of that page.
  17. Thanks for the reply. I found a couple contenders. I'll have to give them a go. http://modules.processwire.com/modules/fieldtype-select-relation/ http://modules.processwire.com/modules/custom-inputfield-dependencies/
  18. Hello. I'm interested in using two page reference fields. The user will select a single page from one page reference field. I'd like the second page reference field to base its values off of the value that was selected in the first page reference field. I'm interested in predefining product attribute labels and product attribute values (e.g. size, small...). So size would be a page, small, medium, large would be children pages of the size page. The user would select the size page from a page reference field, the second page reference field would select the children pages of the size page. Those selections, in this case, would be the small, medium, and large pages. Is that possible or crazy talk? I need this to be dynamic. I'm not interested in setting up logic manually, because I want the client to be able to add new attributes and values on their own.
  19. Hello all, I'm more of a designer and front-end developer, but Processwire has allowed me to extend my offering to more complex solutions for my clients. And sometimes I find myself not quite sure about the most efficient game plan. I'd like to share some of the features I need to pull off and maybe you good folks can let me know what you would do. When I say game plan, I'm referring to setting up the templates, fields and relationships in PW as well as filtering/selecting the content using PW's API. So here's what I have... Visitors of the website will be able to find products and product manufactures (among other things, but let focus on just this). The products will be categorized. One product may have multiple categories. Visitors can search for products (via search field) and navigate products (via the categories). I believe this bit is setup as best it can be in PW. I predefined all categories under a page called 'categories'. There are 2-3 levels of categories. When inputting a product I have a page reference field which allow the user to efficiently assign one or many categories. Pretty straight forward. This is where I start spinning my wheels in the mud... In addition to the search and navigation via categories, the client wants to allow visitors to further narrow down the results with filters. See attached wireframe to get an idea. Imagine Amazon-like functionality. The filters will be things like style, shape, material, size, etc. Not all products will have the same filters though. For example, benches may not have a size attribute, while trash receptacles will. So this opens up a couple questions. How would you set this up in PW so the user can input these bits of data? Keep in mind they differ from product to product. Wouldn't it be safer to pre-define these attributes and their values? Probably, but how, like categories, but it's a filter label and its value (e.g. Size, XXXL) How can I use that data to display the filter options to the visitor? The fact that the filters can differ from product to product is clouding how I see this working. What needs to happen to find out what filters are available. See.. Usually it seems like you have a fixed amount of filters, say one is color, and the page just goes through the collection, looks at the color value, and builds a list of options based on that targeted value. In my case there is no fixed filter that all products use. Attributes/filters can change from product to product. These attributes need to be identified and a list of options/values for that atrribute need to be made available to the visitor to select/tick to narrow down the results. Let's start there. I have more questions, but maybe your feedback will help me clear them up.
  20. Hi. Consider the attached. How do you get the image path so folks can use Markdown to display an image? I know I could use some other wysiwyg field, or install some other module, etc. but what about for this case? Thanks.
