I would love to try this but I am getting an error when trying to restore the backup on the prod machine. When trying to go into the Database Migrations page I get an error that says: Unknown field supplied to saveField for page 1167 If I choose the migration from the admin section of the page tree I get the same error. I can open up the bootstrap one though. It was only a simple test. I added a field and a template in the dev side.

I'm having another issue with duplicator. When I try and restore a backed up site, the files are unzipped and it looks like everything will work, then I get a page saying: The file containing the MySQL database couldn't be found. All the files from the backup are there. It extracted the files. I've never encountered this before. Does anyone know how to fix this?
-
I didn't see this anywhere else, but it seems the new admin theme clobbers the custom CSS that is in TinyMCE fields. Without new admin theme: With new admin theme: Is this a known problem? Are there any solutions?
-
Did this ever get addressed? I know it's been many years but I'm still having the same problem.
-
I just used the IP address as the URL and it worked. We have a pretty simple setup (no shared hosting, server is located on premises) so it was easy to do the IP thing. I didn't find any log entry that reported the problem though.
-
I was able to use http:// and the IP address, then everything worked as expected. I was using https:// and the domain name before.

I apologize for being clueless here, but I installed the module, and although it created all the templates/fields/pages, it doesn't do anything. By that I mean nothing on the site has changed. Am I supposed to place some code on each page on the site or something? I'm obviously missing something. Thanks for any help.

Problem that has been off and on for a while. When I click on the Backup Now button in the control panel it briefly shows the busy graphic, then it disappears and nothing happens. I've tried other browsers, clearing cache, etc. It works sometimes as I have several backups, but this time I can't get it to work. Has anyone else had this problem? I do see an error in the console about the content needing to be served over a secure connection (https) which the link to kick off the backup process is not. Is this something that can be fixed?

I just wanted to give a big thank you to @ryan for making Processwire and making it so easy to use. We are going through a domain name change for our organization and it was SO easy to make the changes in Processwire. Just a little change to a config file in Processwire (and Apache) and it's done. Everything is working fine. All the internal links (and images, PDF files, CSS, JS, etc) still work with no intervention on my part. Maybe it's that easy in WordPress or one of the other 'big' CMS programs, but I doubt it.

Sorry to answer my own question. I had to change the installer script and put set_time_limit(1200); at the beginning. It was 300, then I changed it to 600 and that didn't work, so I tried 1200.
-
I am unable to restore a backed up site all of a sudden. I've done it many times, but this time it isn't working. After running the installer.php file, it goes through the motions, but it takes forever to extract, when it's finally done, I get a partial Step #3 page. I can't do anything after that because there isn't any button or anything else to click. This hasn't happened in the past. Do you have any ideas on why this might be? Like I mentioned, the extraction takes forever, seemingly much longer than previously. It isn't a big archive (110 MB).

I agree with you on it being simple, but when you are managing 1800 books, those books stored at 15 different locations, and over 100 library users, the page tree isn't really very practical. Though the search in processwire helps, I guess I'm looking for something a little easier for the tasks the 'librarians' have to do on the back end. I'm wondering if the suggestion to use CustomAdminPages would be the way to go. I suppose I could make a page so when a librarian logs in, they would just see their books in a nice table (using datatables with filtering/sorting?) with clear buttons for their various tasks. Can these be set as the default page the admin opens to if the users isn't an administrator? And when they complete a task (check in a book for example), have it go back to this page? Almost like a dashboard for each librarian I suppose.
-
Maybe a simple question here, but what is the common practice for allowing users to interact with the back end? Do you just let them into the administrator interface with some access control set? Do you build special pages that they can use to manage content? I have a library site I built for a local group where I live. I would like to allow the 'librarians' to see what books are checked out, check books back in, send canned emails out to people who have overdue books, add new books, etc. But seeing all the back end of Processwire will be way too intimidating to them. In this case, would it be worth creating pages that allow the librarian to interact with the data, but shield them from the admin sections of Processwire? Or is that too much of a chore and should I just show them how to use the backend and tell them to get used to it?

Is it possible to have a thumbnail for the buttons instead of the name with the + icon?

Thanks for the feedback. I agree on the slider criticism. I designed the internal pages first and then was struggling on what to do on the homepage. The slider was more of a 'fill the space' decision than anything else and I was never happy with it. I will revisit that soon and see what improvements can be made. Feel free to suggest anything if you have any ideas.
