  1. There is the possibility to add new items directly from a page reference field, see this video. This is limited however to titles. I agree that it would be very neat in some scenarios to add and edit page references directly, with all fields, possibly via a modal window. Codingwise this may be complex i'm not sure. Maybe it can find it's way on the roadmap.
  2. I haven't used it myself but i hear good things about Foresight.js
  3. I think that it could be beneficial to do a learning project using PW as well as a framework side by side. Write down your feature set (don't make it too complex) for your community app and try do do it in PW and with the framework. Remember that it will take some time to understand your framework of choice before you become productive. A relatively new framework that i really like and just makes sense is http://laravel.com (excellent intro tutorials at http://daylerees.com/ )

    Really nice site. One suggestion; screen resolutions of 1920 wide are fairly common these days. The body background is set to 1800. Seeing that the used image is big enough maybe you could set it to 1920.
  5. If you're also looking into frameworks i suggest you take a look at http://laravel.com/ It's relatively young but already has some nice momentum, good documentation, and it just makes sense. For a quick intro look at http://daylerees.com/category/laravel-tutorials/

    My deutsch isn't very good but in the closing disadvantages section (nachteile) the writer doesn't seem to have a good grasp of the freedom and possibilities of PW templating.
  7. Hi onjegolders. Just wondering: Is your Processwire learning experience also one of your first times working with PHP? A 'do while loop' is pretty common stuff. Along with for, foreach, if, elseif, else etc. Don't take this the wrong way, i'm just curious. As for shift; i think this is just an PW api shortcut to a standard php array_shift function, for use on Page- WireArrays. It's on the PW cheatsheet ( http://processwire.com/api/cheatsheet/ )
  8. Allen; judging from a couple of recent threads i scanned your quite hung up on providing some short/perm link functions. Ofcourse, everyone has their own requirements for certain projects but i don't see the real benefit. Twitter auto-shortens links or use bit.ly or such services. In mail, where there's no 140 lmit i would rather have descriptive url than some id based url.
  9. Ryan, Some googling reveals this: http://www.ipbwiki.com/ which seems to connect/integrate IP.Board and Mediawiki. As for hostnames: i personally quite like rtfm.processwire.com (there's already rtfm.modx.com) but i'm not sure that everybody can appreciate this. Some other options: userguide.processwire.com guide.processwire.com
  10. In your example what would "example.com/deep-frying/29/the-best-way-to-deep-fry-leeks" would resolve to?
  11. Hi Jufo. If you haven't already i suggest you take a look at this forum thread: http://processwire.c...ct-walkthrough/ Also take a close look at the template code that comes with a fresh install of PW. It's well commented and can help a lot to get an idea how easy things can be. Once you understand the basics of working with processwire it's (my opinion) pretty easy to make your own site structure, put the data you want and work with that data on the front-end. - edit: almost forgot, the documentation on the main site is also mandatory material: http://processwire.com/api/
  12. Nice module diogo! With my lack of php skills i wouldn't be able to come up with modules like this but it does seem quite easy in PW to make stuff like this. On line 17 and 18; shouldn't the variable name be $nobrackets? The module doesn't output width and height attributes. Is this intentional?
  13. I like it. Not the kind of design i love but i think it appeals to the target audience. Haven't seen the use of a smartphone pic like this before, quite original. One thing i noticed; when switching to chinese, in the 'our programs' section one of the items still is in english. But maybe that's intended.
  14. Damn, i suppose this is meant to be English but i can't make sense of things. Curious to see if anyone else is able to.
  15. This is already requested i guess; in the works and available via Github. More enhancements on the way. See: https://github.com/ryancramerdesign/ProcessWire/pull/84 and also: http://processwire.com/talk/topic/1064-module-install-usability-improvements/page__fromsearch__1
  16. I'm not sure about this CMIS business. It think it's more in the realm of enterprise content (document) management systems and their repositories. Of course it would be neat to have the capability to integrate PW with some cmis enabled repositories, like Alfresco, but it seems pretty pretty complex and the reward questionable. An interesting set of slides on the subject is this: http://www.slideshare.net/alfresco/tech-talklivealfrescodrupal All very nice but it does seem a little "enterprisy" to me.

    Hi Jasper, Nice site with a lot of good content. As a fellow dutchman i now know where to look for information about Sweden Site's fast too. Do you do any caching on the site? Template cache or maybe markupcache for your menu? Also, are there others working with the PW backend? If so i'm curious what they think of PW.
  18. Q1: If all you want to do is echo the contents of the field 'pref_site_name_simple' belonging to the site-settings page probably this: echo $pages->get("/site-settings/")->pref_site_name_simple // or "name=site-settings" if you expect the page to move in levels or if you want to make a variable for reuse: $psns = $pages->get("/site-settings/")->pref_site_name_simple Remember the PW api allows for chaining, and all fields are at your fingertips regardless from what template you are working. Q2 There's nothing low-tech about an inc file. Instead it seems ideal to store stuff like you mentioned.
  19. Having the images and fonts directories there shouldn't be a problem. More likely it's a problem in your server setup. What error message do you get?
  20. I'm quite the noob myself but i'm sure someone will correct me if i'm wrong
  21. Ho Soma, awesome stuff! Can't wait to play a bit with this module. I think there is an error in the opening post and docs on github: The call under basic usage should be $treeMenu = $modules->get("MarkupSimpleNavigation"); // load the module instead of $treeMenu = $modules->get("SimpleMarkupNavigation"); // load the module
  22. number of posts, sorry, couldn't resist
