@cmscritic Mike, great to hear from you. I'd be very interested to know a little more about the holes in the PW offerings that compelled you to look at WP; there obviously are some, or you wouldn't have made the call to switch. I've never personally used WP, but I know people that like the theme-ability (is that a word?) and the large number of extensions that are available for it. It's also very popular with a large section of online entrepreneurs. I don't think we should get too emotional about folks' decisions to switch, as there are obviously a wide choice of tools around, but I would like to understand what is missing from the PW eco-system - and where possible, without detracting from Ryan's design decisions for PW - plug the gaps through well designed modules and site profiles. Thanks for all you've done in promoting PW and hope we can get you back to using it soon.

I'm guessing, and this might not help much, but it sounds like output formatting might be off when you are not logged in.

I didn't know you liked knitting, Adrian. I, too, like textiles.

@Ivan Gretsky, there is a crypto module here that can create random token strings for you. If I remember correctly, you can just do this; $num_chars = 32; // The length of the token you want. Adjust as needed $random_key = CryptoPPP::genKeys(1); // Generates a seed key $token = CryptoPPP::keyToToken($random_key, $num_chars); // Convert to string token You can also define the character set that the random string is to use if you aren't happy with the default one. In fact, if you are going to use the token in a returned link, you'll definitely want to change the default character set used in the generation to only use url-safe characters.

Thanks for adding me as a colaborator, @horst. I've pushed a new dev branch to the repository that contains, Bugfixes to the textfile driver's itemCount() method and small cleanups for edge cases. New methods isEmpty(), purgeItems() and getItems() added to the base storage class and fully implemented in the textfile driver. The SQLite driver currently has stub implementations of these that need filling out. The addition of a Redis driver for super-fast in-memory queues (implements the full base class interface.) If anyone wants to give this a try before horst gets around to merging into the master branch, feel free to grab the zip (repository here.)

@kongondo - done, just in case.

Ok, how about in the http server error log - not just PW's own log? If you are running on a *nix based machine, the server error logs are often found in a subdirectory of /var/log/ (on my local machine, the logs are in /var/log/httpd/error-<sitename>.log. If you are using php-fpm, you can check it's own logs too.

Anything in the error or exception logs, @icreation?

John, I've not done this before so I don't know for sure - but I'd guess at something like InputfieldImage::___fileAdded() - link.

@adrian, I haven't actually given it much thought yet - that was a spur-of-the-moment posting, though I definitely wasn't thinking of using it for the core. Now I've spent a few more cycles on it, I can see that I have two different ways of using git for my PW-related stuff; For modules - in which case I just symlink in a subdirectory (suitably git init'd) from my master development directory so only some of the subdris in the site/modules/ directory will be git repos. For whole sites - in which case I install from the latest zip'd version of PW and then git init in the site/ subdirectory. I'm sure there will be other ways to do this too.

@adrian, Git branch integration next?

No Fitbit here, Pete. I do, however, use the pedometer app on my phone.

Are any of the DB tables corrupt? You should be able to repair tables from within PHPMyAdmin. Also, is there an issue with free space on the server? I've had machines grind to a halt before when running out of space in the /var partition.

@cb2004, Although this doesn't directly answer your question, have you had a look at formmailer's SchedulePages module? If you intend using your target selector to publish/unpublish pages I think you'll find his module has it covered.

@horst Thanks for this module, I've been hammering it pretty hard for the past month and have just created a pull-request over on github for your consideration. I've been having a few reliability problems with the textfile driver's itemCount() method. I also wanted a fast way to purge a queue without having to call getItem() repeatedly. The itemCount() method sometimes returns an incorrect count (anywhere from 0 to the true number of items in the queue). This happens even when there are multiple thousands of jobs queued up and it makes it unreliable as part of a conditional statement. The explanation is given in the commit that fixes the issue as part of the pull request. Thanks for looking!

@joer80, You should be able to use the PDO prepare(), bind() and execute() methods. Here's a short example; $statement = wire()->database->prepare("INSERT INTO `tablename` (`comments`) VALUES (:comment)"); $statement->bindParam(":comment", "The boat is 17' long. "); // Defaults to binding as a string. $statement->execute();

Hello Pete, Just to clarify; are you getting a non-empty, but incorrectly sorted, result set for that selector?

Hi JoshoB I think you need to escape your '/' characters. Could you try this and let us know if it works; $pattern = '#<p[^>]*>(\s| |<\/?\s?br\s?\/?>)*<\/?p>#';

I've now added the useLocale() method to allow explicit setting of the locale as outlined above. This bumps the module to v1.1.0.

Hi pwired, Thanks for taking a look. I guess it might just be my local Cloudflare Cloudfront node then. Anyone else from the UK seeing any issues?

Over the past few weeks I've been seeing some weirdness when visiting the module repository. Here's a screenshot of how it appears for me this morning on Chromium; And here on FF; Visiting the module pages also shows some rendering issues; Anyone else seeing these issues? I'm seeing a lot of 502 errors for the page - mostly from cloudfront;

Hi Adrian, Many thanks for that. I've just had word from the client that the new version of your module has their application up and running again. Outstanding response time!

@szabesz, Works fine on 3.x for me.

Hi Matt, I find nik's Selector Test module to be really useful when developing selectors. If you ever have a selector that isn't doing what you expect, it can really help. Highly recommended.

Hi Adrian, I think there's a problem when using your module with any other code or modules that use fgets() or file() - such as Horst's WireQueueTextfile module (and possibly others.) I've just spent a couple of hours tracking this down over IRC with a client. The init() routine of your module sets PHPs auto_detect_line_endings flag to true - which can have un-intended consequences on other code run after your module initialises. In my client's case, they are using WireQueue with the textfile storage and it was throwing up errors, with your module installed, while unserialising a line pulled from the queue file using fgets() at the end of the getItem() method that pulls an item from the Wire Queue. Commenting out the following in TableCsvImportExport.module; ini_set('auto_detect_line_endings', true); fixed things for us. I understand the attraction of making the exported/imported files cross-platform compatible, but I think your module has other options open rather than changing the PHP setting during the init() routine. Perhaps, at the start of the import routine, you could read the initial state of that flag, then ini_set() it to true while you do the import and finally restore it to the initial setting on exit from your routine? Thanks for your great modules and for considering this request!
