  1. I'm not familiar with foundation, as I use bootstrap myself. Bootstrap does have responsive tables within a div tag. You may want to look there and transfer that styling into your style file. /$.02
  2. tbody class background color is not transparent in app.css line 3301. Is that what you mean? See sass reference, $table-background, default is white.
  3. I would like to make a suggestion, which combines this topic with those of the cheat sheet and documentation topics, and the blog posts covering filed type definitions. I would think that someone new to processwire isn't concerned so much as how to design a front-end layout as it is how to use the power of the api as it relates to both the front-end and manipulating the supporting data. I think most people coming to processwire already have a decent grasp of HTML, PHP, etc., but lack an understanding of how to assemble all the excellent tools found within the processwire core to accomplish a desired goal. Based on the recent (past few weeks) forum topics, tutorials could cover menu creation, searching, extracting specific data from one or more pages, defining multi-language interfaces, etc. As there are many ways to approach a general objective, I would like to see specific procedures that utilize the efficiency of processwire. A great example is this tutorial by LostKobrakai. And even though there are excellent modules available that satisfy specific development requirements, there is still a need (at least for me) for a centralized location of instructional information. The resulting tutorial code samples could then be integrated into the appropriate sections of the cheat sheet and the general documentation.
  4. Hi Pete, Couple of things, one related, one not. In the developer directory, is there any method we could implement to verify that a member's data is valid and functioning correctly? For example, one member's web site returns an error. This looks bad. Can we poll the URLs and notify members if an issue is discovered? [Note: I PM'd the member about this error.] Not related: On the members page of this forum, the alphabet tabs don't appear to work. Selecting a specific letter returns all results rather than that group. Where should this issue be reported? Or in the immortal words of Monte Python, "Those responsible have been sacked."
  5. The issue I have with providing joopalpress, out-of-the box, pre-configured solutions, is processwire shouldn't be implying endorsement of any framework or component that is not processwire itself. By including any of those in a default installation, or as an add-on, would degrade processwire to the level of the joopalpresses. The primary strength is processwire is non-destructive and non-limiting with a developer's creations. What I think might be a solution, is to create a sub-forum under getting started where we can provide topics on setting up processwire with whatever framework (or other add-on) as a guide for new users, and even for seasoned developers to look at. We could also demonstrate how to swap site profiles. I think it would be advantageous to show new users how easy it is to utilize these various components with processwire. But putting all the combinations into an install would not be my first choice.
  6. This is just my personal opinion, but I hate social media. Actually, I find it annoying to be constantly interrupted with tweets, or other messages, while working. And when I'm not working (read playing golf) the last thing I'm concerned about at that time is an update. I also try to keep things centrally located so that I don't have to go lookin' at other places to get my news or information. As it is now, we search both the forum and github for information regarding a topic. I think it would become a maintenance issue to add more avenues. Don't get me wrong, I'm not against using these tools to better the publicity, I'm just sayin' I personally don't use them.
  7. I like this option. Regarding the intermittent click, maybe i glanced at it wrong, but aren't you already in the click event on line 128, and then executing another click on 131 for the same element?
  8. 2016, so far, so good.

  9. Glad you got it sorted. Looks like the new year is starting off well.
  10. Hi Jones, and welcome to the forum. If I understand your question correctly, adding HTML markup within and SVG element is a front-end issue (therefore not related to ProcessWire) and quite a bit more complicated that it looks. There are, however, many references available from a google search regarding SVG <text>, or CANVAS, etc., which would be a great starting point for you. Since ProcessWire does not restrict you on what or how you create your user-interface, I would recommend you first create the front-end and get it working the way you desire. We could then help you with having ProcessWire manage that information. You will have to determine the best way to accomplish your goals, but you might look at either the TSPAN var text = svg.append("svg:text"); text.append("svg:tspan").style("fill", "red").text("hello"); text.append("svg:tspan").style("fill", "blue").text("world"); Or an foreignObject element: svg.append("svg:foreignObject") .attr("width", 200) .attr("height", 200); .append("div") .html("<span style='color:red'>Hello</span> <span style='color:blue'>world</span>!"); Or even an absolute-positioned HTML overlay. Edit: @Mods: Should this be moved to off-topic?
  11. Thanks! Happy New Year to everyone! Be safe! I want to see everyone back here!
  12. Hello atar, and welcome to the forums! -- Don't worry about your English. Ask any questions you want and everyone will jump in to help. Edit: Misunderstood the question.
  13. I'll second that. Nice work on the new .pw domain
  14. Things that make you go, "Hmmm". A few options are: 1. Using responsive tables may work, but I suspect it will yield the same results as you are trading one container for another, and the same issue as described in #2 remains. 2. You may want to use images of much larger dimensions, initially set for the largest target display resolution. The issue appears that you're wanting a subordinate element to conform to it's parent when the parent itself no longer conforms -- hence the Cascade in Css appearing to fail* after a certain point. 3. Lastly, javascript can adjust the desired elements of a certain class/id/name. This was the method commonly used to mask issue #2 before browsers learned to parse more specific css directives and windowing events, such as resizing. * Technically, css is not failing here. If you were to display a background color for each element, you will see that they occupy the desired space. The figure image should be enlarged to fill the available space to aesthetically resolve this issue.
  15. Hi Peter, Take a look at this figcap test example and see if it is what you are looking for. I copied the portion of your original site referring to Richard for the content. I use bootstrap myself, but you could adapt your styles easily enough. All the styles are inline rather than a separate file for quick reference. I've tested this in FF, Chrome, and Opera. I don't use internet exploder so I'll leave that up to you.
  16. Macrura, that second link under 'others' says I don't have permission to view this forum.
  17. heldercervantesWorks great on linux with FF, Chrome, and Opera
  18. Thanks! Merry Christmas to you and your family as well! Here's to a safe and prosperous new year for all!
  19. I'd like to thank LostKobrakai for this excellent tutorial included in the Dec 25, 2015 blog post regarding custom page types. If you haven't read it yet, please do so. It is contributions like this by the senior members that prove selecting ProcessWire was the correct decision for this ProcessWire-Newbie. I am impressed at what I have learned within the functionality of ProcessWire, and discovering avenues I hadn't yet thought about. It is indeed a merry Christmas. I also want to thank all staff members. They deserve our gratitude for the time they dedicate to helping us learn ProcessWire, and the many avenues available with each project. For example, kongondo contribution is another great example of the team in place here. My hat is off to Ryan and his team for giving of their time and sharing their knowledge. In addition to the regular staff, there are many members, such as Kixe, Tom, (and too many others to name them all here) that also deserve recognition for their contributions and assistance. It is greatly appreciated. I am certainly looking forward to ProcessWire 2016 ;-)
  20. Not that I would 'alter' my basic LAMP development and production machines for the sake of having new stuff, but so far PW 2.7.x and 3.x have performed without issue using MariaDB 10.x on my ubuntu 14.04 localhost and debian 8.x servers, also with custom tables/pdo. I haven't pulled the trigger on lightspeed just yet -- I'm only curious about the performance difference to apache. Again, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. I see no reason to change until there is reason to do so, such as exceeding mysql indexing limits, or apache barfin' on concurrent users, etc.
  21. Old has been referenced way too many times in this thread. I find it interesting to observe the development methodologies preferred by the different generations. It reminds me of this...
  22. Merry Christmas to you as well. That was one of the many CMSs I looked at before making my decision to go with ProcessWire. I'm old-school, so my requirements are far more basic than what others may think is best for development. For example, that matrix functionality, in my opinion, was one of the items that was more fluff than actual enhancement. Being old-school, I don't care for the "dreamweaver/frontpage"-esque approach to developer tools. As powerfully simple as ProcessWire is, anyone can develop whatever feature module they think may help take their ability to create to the next level. I prefer an unobstructed, hands-on approach to development, rather than adding bloat from installers, less, template engines, and any other proclaimed 'enhancement' for development. Split windows and a refresh work just fine for preview.
  23. Nicely done! And cheers to a wonderful holiday for you and your family as well!
  24. I like the Powered by, DaveP. I'll add this to the list.
