  1. That NearlyFreeSpeech looks really nice! I might try them for my personal website to save some bucks!
  2. I have a lot of faith in Processwire's future. I´m a graphic designer who happens to do web development, and I could not be happier with how easy it is to grasp Processwire's foundations and even more complex coding like making modules. So I think in the near future we will see a lot of non-technical background people having "AHA" moments when finding out about Processwire. I mean, the API is just pants dropper!
  3. Geez I'm sorry, OS X, sorry for the stupid omission.
  4. That looks really nice! But I'm not on Windows
  5. Does anyone know of a "portable" solution? Something that encapsulates the whole Apache/PHP/MySQL, so that I can move to another computer and just open again the my text editor, start the server and keep on developing? I read that I could do this with Vagrant and Docker but I´m not quite sure if I´m understanding correctly.
  6. In Setup > Fields, select a field and in the Input tab, there is a Visibility setting that can be changed to several options to display the field open or closed. Hope this helps!
  7. thanks, noticed that yesterday, the owner cancelled his hosting what a bummer Supposedly it will go up again.
  8. I always read across the forum that the best way to search, is what you are already doing, a kind of google custom search. https://processwire.com/talk/topic/6196-easy-search-on-pw-forums-with-google/?p=60632
  9. It took my a while to realize that this could be VERY educational, thank you BernhardB!
  10. This! Please don't tell me I have to offer Woocommerce for my next eCommerce site
  11. When I read posts like this, I always think about a list of quotes titled "Developers react to Processwire" , it always seems to be kind of a shock to find out about PW.
  12. I tested adding this function to the module: <?php function convert_twitter_links($tweet) { //converts URLs to active links $tweet = preg_replace('/((http)+(s)?:\/\/[^<>\s]+)/i', '<a href="$0" target="_blank">$0</a>', $tweet ); //converts mentions (e.g. @stathisg) to active links, pointing to the user's twitter profile $tweet = preg_replace('/[@]+([A-Za-z0-9-_]+)/', '<a href="http://twitter.com/$1" target="_blank">$1</a>', $tweet ); //converts hashtags (e.g. #test) to active links, pointing to a twitter's search URL $tweet = preg_replace('/[#]+([A-Za-z0-9-_]+)/', '<a href="http://twitter.com/search?q=%23$1" target="_blank">$0</a>', $tweet ); return $tweet; } and then called it like this: $text = $this->convert_twitter_links($text); Though, I had to put this line just below this line (this is within renderItem() definition ): $text = wire('sanitizer')->entities($text); I will guess I must be doing something wrong here not sanitizing this string before rendering it, but I can't really tell, I don't know much about this "entities" methods, so I will recommend taking this solution as unsafe or something like that until someone else gives a hand
  13. I hadn't thought about this two points of view around admin. I have seen some apps made in processwire around the forum, like for example this preview of an intranet, is this the same kind of "front end edit" you are talking about LostKobrakai? Just in case it's that, I would also be pretty excited to learn how to do that
  14. I have used fullpage.js in a few sites! Clients love that thing
  15. My bad! I didn't read the issue properly, and I would have never reached to your answer I think
  16. Maybe you could use something with $page->parents to get which are the parent pages, and make a selector accordingly? $parents = $page->parents; $pois = $pages->find("parent=" .getPathString($parents). ",template=poi, interests=$int"); I included that getPathString() because $page->parents returns a PageArray that I don't know how if has a method to make it into a string like "/this/is/a/path/".
  17. Now that I know what this is about, I'd like to mention use this: https://imageoptim.com/ And googling for what SuperPNG does, I found this which seems to be from the same author as ImageOptim, though I don't really know if it does the same: http://pngmini.com/
  18. I had been looking for CMS alternatives for a few months, I had been doing work primarily on Wordpress but only with already made templates, later, for custom design needs, I discovered Perch which I was quite excited to see how well it worked and how easy it was to set up a site with it, but the license fee made it less attractive as it did impact my costs of production (I normally do small websites). But I did love this thing, simple websites, simple admin, just the right amount of things to edit, everything managed through Pages (though not in tree form). Though, I did had a hard time getting used to their weird way of configuring field types (which looked like you were making a template, so I got confused between templating and configuration now an then) I then went to Kirby, flat-file CMS, also a very neat CMS, though I didn't like much the admin panel, I did like that it was pure files, so my local version of sites were pushed really easily, galleries options weren't as neat as in Perch and had no comments system for blogs. Then again, the license fee kicked in. Start looking again... This is when I came up with Bolt, Pico, Grav CouchCMS, etc. But nope, nothing at least comparable to Perch in simplicity, (or some don't have admin panel) If I remember I think Bolt did call to my attention but when I tried it it had this "bloggy" feel to it, similar to Wordpress, that ended up not convincing me. Then I was making a website for a friend's to be released comic book and I wanted to mimic what is done on manga sites, volume, chapter and page navigation dropdowns and stuff, then again same old story, look for a Wordpress plugin, found out that the best option wasn't exactly what I had expected and then again, doing Wordpress themes always looked like such a pain, so I that didn't even bother. Started looking again...even found a dedicated CMS for comics, that didn't really fit my needs. In this now long search for a perfect CMS, I stumbled upon CMS Critic while looking for reviews website, and saw they had an award thing going on, so I decided to check top places. "Well well, who do we have here Mr.Processwho-No-1-OpenSource-CMS?". Started reading the docs, saw the examples, looked awesome, so I decided to put it inside a website. Clean urls, everything custom fields, repeaters, multilanguage out of the box, extendable, a kick ass API....YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME! The rest is history my friends, Processwire has brought the happiness to my web development career as nothing had ever done. I believe in this project and it's community, it's gonna be awesome, nuff said!
  19. Could you tell a bit on how this extra parameters help you? That clean transparent checkbox calls to my attention.
  20. RT @francoisz: devdocs.io: Searchable, well organized doc for #JS, React.js, Angular.js, Symfony, etc. http://t.co/1aA39vFCw0 Works offline…

    I thought that too! I started with a few lessons, and damn now I am doing parabolas while resting from work. It calls to my attention that there's a lot of "standing desks". Don't know if that's the correct term.

    I just saw this and think it's amazing. https://www.khanacademy.org/partner-content/pixar
  23. I hadn't heard about the concept of "headless" CMS, though I believe it is kind of the way PW is built right? Like, everything modules around the core? Also the examples they give about distributed technologies as management systems reminded me of a topic around General Support of someone making an API for a mobile app. My favorite part of Processwire is this feeling that I know "a way" of accessing data and just present it however I want to. Not having to look into the documentation every time to see which specific function I need to call and the default admin that makes so easy to show just enough for the right user. I love this CMS too
  24. This is so awesome!! Can't wait to put my hands on it!
  25. Just released my second @processwire site! Kudos to a great band with a bright future! http://t.co/mBctGcxxAs @sensoriaoficial
