  1. @kongondo - I can confirm that "PageAutocomplete" is not visible under "Input field type" when looking at the field "tag" in the current blog profile and on PW 2.4. 

    PageAutocomplete is visible on another field (page type) in a custom profile I have running on that same host. Can't explain this one. 

    Test platform: PHP 5.5.10 (MAMP PRO 3.03) on OS X. 

  2. Just an FYI: Been running on MariaDB for most of my installations  PW ( 2.2, 2.3, 2.4) with no issues to report. That does not mean you should migrate a production site with out testing it however.

  3. ProcessWire is easy to get the hang of. If your going to build sites for clients, you will appreciate the differences soon enough. Come on in, the water is nice. 

    BTW: i just finished moving the last of my client sites off MODx (started on 0.95).  Most of them I converted on my dime. I did it because It saves me time and is easier for them to manage content.  No more dependance on custom modules to get my sites the way I want. Have most everything I need in the core.  Dumped drupal for many of the same reasons too.

    I used to think lots of great third party modules for *some cms* saved us time. Not so. The upgrade problems alone cost us more than the coding in PW. 

    Learn to code. It's a skill that won't be replaced.

  4. I go off to build stuff, come back and get floored with new PW stuff. Man it just keeps getting better! This will be super handy on some sites I have in the queue! Looking forward to 2.4!

    @Ryan Thanks for your hard work. 

    A big shout out  @Avoine and @Antti!

  5. Your service provider probably already has set these parameters. They are not allowing you to override them. Normally you would not want indexes displayed in application folders or on a normal site,  Which is why you you see empty index.html files in directories in some applications or the -Indexes directive in your .htaccess file.  You can test for  this condition by going to a folder without a directory index file, that has other resources. If you don't see anything then indexing is not on in for that host (or implicitly set on that dir)

    I am pretty sure Processwire is not using symbolic links. It is possible that someone could or did write a module that does. Just none that I am aware of.  If you create some yourself, you won't be able to follow them in, Apache if this directive is not enabled.    I know that drupal does need this directive for a private download method in the core.  Not sure why it is present in the PW .htaccess file. 

    From the Apache Docs..   

    Indexes If a URL which maps to a directory is requested, and there is no DirectoryIndex (e.g., index.html) in that directory, then mod_autoindex will return a formatted listing of the directory. FollowSymLinks The server will follow symbolic links in this directory.   http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#options

  6. @onhegolders -- Try running the script against an image you say it did not work for, and test. You can add some error handing to find out what is happening. 

    I don't like to process large size reductions on the server personally as I am not typically happy with the results. Sharpness takes a dive.  That is why I usually batch locally where I have much better control over the quality.   

  7. I recently had to prune a 800k image collection where many files were orphaned or needed to go (product no longer available) . Had the relative path in the db. Exported the records  to a Filemaker  DB and copied the images to the local HD. Imported the image file size and dimensions into the DB from the filesys, ran a query, moved selected records out of the tree to a new directory and synced the revised file tree back to the server deleting the orphans.

    How many records do you have? 

    If your going to reprocess your images on a Mac,  you could give Graphic Converter a try. It has some very nice batch operations that are easy to implement.

  8. @Tyssen 

    That only works from within the WYSIWYG though right? Doesn't work if you want to add an image with the standard images field.

    Correct 

    One idea might be to modify the image field to allow you browse other page image fields(s) and then choose an existing image as a reference that would be rendered like a local image that is uploaded.
