That seems to be a game changer. Congrats on this effort. Keep it up!
-
+1 Absolu +1 and i'd suggest the blue one!

the community here is second to none. Never experienced such a combination of Knowledge and Kindness.

Thanks for posting. This is exactly the kind of information which should be displayed centrally and not scattered around various places...
-
+1 for explanations of the numerous variants of $pages / pages() / $this->pages..or when do i have to use "wire" etc --- generally explain the different methods of variable instantiation, scope, when where, why, differences ... with bringing the mostly used / recommended method on first place. +1 for a codepen like playground / console for a API demo a module installer as described above would be great!

ok, @adrian your points make sense. Then there's only one solution: Adrian has to become part of the core ?

Congrats on the launch! The whole site looks much more modern and to the point now! Respect for putting in this much effort in such a short amount of time! I second the suggestion of showing a video or a slideshow of images without the imac frame on the starting page. The frame indeed distracts the user from the valuable content imho and steals important space for displaying the actual features of PW. Also a display of a console where the output of API calls is displayed could be a game changer in terms of a pro PW decision for developers. I think Tracy Debugger should be part of the core. In my eyes this is one of the most valuable developing tools if working with Processwire.

On Linux (MX Linux) Firefox 64 / Google Chrome 71.0.3578.98 all is looking fine, like in the screenshot posted by @breezer

That'd be great! +1

aha, now it's clear. @ryan Thanks a lot for clarifying this. Also thanks for the hint @fbg13

Thank you very much for these new and - as always - useful features. I have a question regarding the update of pagination module (MarkupPagerNav) to automatically populate $config->pagerHeadTags. @ryan you explained: To use, simply populate them in your document <head> after pagination has been rendered [...] So, do you mean i have to insert some code within the <head> tags in order to generate <link rel='next'> and <link rel='prev'> tags? - If so: How exactly would i accomplish this task? I've heard the first time of $config->pagerHeadTags, neither found documentation in https://processwire.com/api/ref/config/ nor in https://processwire.com/api/ref/markup-pager-nav/ . But then again i think i wouldn't have to do anything manually if the modules populates $config->pagerHeadTags automatically? Surely i misunderstood something basic here. Thanks in advance for some enlightenment.

Did also my small contribution. Thanks @adrian for rightly reminding us to show our appreciation for Processwire where possible. Processwire really should be recognized much more in the world. Maybe it'd be a good idea to place a github link directly on the starting page additionally to the one on the download page...?

duh, 10 °C is really a damn frigid room temperature. I also had problems with my furnace connected with a rather serious and complex water pipe break. The heating installer needs 3 weeks to repair the damage, in part because he wasn't able to discover all the defects properly / immediately...

[WIP] ProcessMailer - A module for managing and sending newsletters
Lenz replied to abdus's topic in Modules/Plugins
Hello @abdus, congrats on your really great venture. Much appreciated. Is there any news about your newsletter module? -
@Bergy Sure, no problem. The scripts make some assumptions: 1. you have ssh access to your server 2. you not only have access to your document root (-> mostly /var/www ...etc), but also to your /home/user directory 3. your /home/user is at the same time your ssh user 4. your rsa public key is located under /home/user/.ssh/o2u_rsa 5. All scripts are located under /home/user/ For more comfort register a (RSA) key of your client computer to the development remote server (with keygen you can easily create a key on your machine under linux) you also can generate a key under windows with putty (with some plugins, google therefor putty generate ssh key, ssh authentification without password). # explanation regarding the use of placeholders in the scripts: # all placeholders are indicated with double braces -> {{ ... }}. Don't put your concrete names/data at all in braces, the double braces only indicate a placeholder # {{dev dbname}} is a placeholder for your database name on the development server/webspace. EDIT: Or is it actually the db-username? # {{prod dbname}} is a placeholder for your database name on the production server/webspace. EDIT: Or is it actually the db-username? # {{dev server user}} is a placeholder for your username on the dev server/webspace. # {{prod server user}} is a placeholder for your username on the prod server/webspace. # {{prod.server.name}} is a placeholder for your production server name. These scripts are working successfully at my hoster Uberspace The hosting os used by my hoster is Centos Linux (6) Feel free to correct me, or optimize things, always glad if i can learn something Now the Following describes the scenario Deployment of a new dev version of a website to the production environment / server / webspace The main script is deploy-dev-prod.sh. It executes 2 further scripts, like a php include. Code deploy-dev-prod.sh #!/bin/bash # Deployment Script: # Deploys the website from development environment to production environment # should be placed in your /home/user folder on the server # Usage: # # chmod +x deploy-dev-prod.sh # ./deploy-dev-prod.sh # If a sqldump-dev-backup.sql File already exists rename sqldump-dev-backup.sql to sqldump-dev-backup2.sql if [ -e sqldump-dev-backup.sql ] then mv sqldump-dev-backup.sql sqldump-dev-backup2.sql printf "\nSource Server: Done - rename sqldump-dev-backup.sql to sqldump-dev-backup2.sql\n\waiting for next step ...\n\n" fi # create MySQL dumpfile on source server mysqldump {{dev dbname}} > sqldump-dev-backup.sql # Attention: mysqldump --databases {{dev dbname}} > name.sql would export the database per se, which is not desired here.

Feel free to give me your opinion. The only problem is, i'll be on holidays the next 10-12 days and not available. But afterwards i have a look at this thread.
