  1. Ollie - This should be pretty straight forward. I worked with MODx from 0.96 evo on. What we is more into.

    Hi jamienk, This thread might interest you.. http://processwire.com/talk/topic/2106-creating-a-page-without-a-title/
  3. I have a 2006 Mac Pro that still is chugging along just fine as a primary. A dual xeon running 6TB with a 512 SSD for boot and apps. Has 16GB and I upgraded the video for the Apple 30" and 24" . Both need to be replaced now the colors are shifting and not accurate enough anymore. Good work space though. Have a 17 MBP for mobile. Have considered getting a new 15, and running dual 27's via thunderbolt but can't make up my mind between that and waiting for the new MacPros due this year. Regarding a raid array, while you can have redundant storage in a raid box, you need to have a redundant backup of whatever your primary storage is (think theft or natural disaster). I archive off an external raid array out to 2TB drives that go off site. Hot files are backed up to the cloud. Why so much data? I have alot of media (raw image files from photography and video) that needs to be archived long term. I grew up on Unix (BSD and Solaris) so when OS X was released I moved my personal computing over from MS platforms. Now I have my cake (unix under the hood) and can eat it too (apps).
  4. Sorry I misunderstood. You want both. If you set it to manual, the default will be to append. I have not taken the time to look at the admin, but you might be able to create / modify an admin template to do what you want. Maybe Ryan could chime in on that. Updated -- That behavior in the core.
  5. You can choose sort settings for all children that use a template by going to Admin>Setup>Templates Choose the template you want to edit Click on the Family menu item Expand the "Sort setings for childen" section Choose the "Children are sorted by" option you want Toggle the direction of sort if needed Save your changes
  6. @joss - You could always count the rows and close the ul then open a new one in code. Extra markup but works without javascript enabled and on old browsers too.
  7. The issue with thumbnails is only present on .row-fluid parent elements (responsive). The ticket keeps getting closed meaning they probably will not address this issue. If your building out a bunch of templates based on bootstrap, you really might want to take a look at v3. Major changes in that branch. Mobile first, no more submenu's in drop downs, plus a lot of other changes you should be aware of. Stuff to consider as you code your solutions. https://github.com/twitter/bootstrap/pull/6342
  8. A child page of the Commercial Banks page is a descendant of each parent. So there is an assignment already that you use can by leveraging a selector in a template. You would use a has_parent selector to build the pages array that met that condition in your template. You can just leverage the page tree and the structure you build.
  9. This error is a either a permissions error where the user does not have rights to the database or you specified the wrong database name which appears to be a rights issue as well.
  10. Buy Ryan one, but if he is not available you can join me for a round on you. It does rock!

    I actually find some of my best problem solving occurs while I sleep. I push the tough ones into the night shift and wake up and implement the solution. Now if I can figure out how many hours to bill the client for actual sleep work, I will be all set.
  12. Hi Matthew, Welcome to the forums. I believe you could build it with PW since just about anything is possible given coding effort. However just because you could does not necessarily mean you should. There would be much to work out. Just as there would be in EE (unless you already built something similar). Big factors in development effort here would be related to the level of automation required. Your specs bring up more questions than I care to ask at the moment. Posting a big scope for review and feedback is usually asking alot in a forum. Best to approach it one bite at at time. ProcessWire is a great CMF/CMS and can accomplish much of what you can with EE, without the expense of third party modules. I have not built a site in EE that mimics the functionality you require, so I won't comment on its fitness to the task. You just might want to take a look at moodle and evaluate it for this particular project. It is a learning management system that might have many of the features you need built in or available in a plugin already. Since your here, I will say this. ProcessWire has good docs and the api is easy to follow. You can quickly be very productive. The community here is helpful and friendly. Come on down and kick the tires. Might not be a match for every project, but it is for most I am working on.
  13. That conversion function is not in the PW API (SEE http://processwire.com/apigen/class-ImageSizer.html), but PW does use GD. GD has functions that can do this. So you can accomplish what you want. See imagecreatefrompng http://php.net/manual/en/book.image.php Take a look at this http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1201798/use-php-to-convert-png-to-jpg-with-compression
  14. @Georgson - That is called the ternary conditional operator. From the manual .. <?php $first ? $second : $third ?> If the value of the first subexpression is TRUE (non-zero), then the second subexpression is evaluated, and that is the result of the conditional expression. Otherwise, the third subexpression is evaluated, and that is the value. For those interested read more at php.net ...
  15. First confirm that you can resolve localhost. From a shell prompt, ping localhost. If you don't resolve the name, confirm that there is an entry in /etc/hosts If localhost resolves, and the MySQL server is running, validate a db connection by simply using the mySQL command line client. $> mysql -h host -u user -p Where host is localhost and user is a valid user account. Can you connect? If you can connect, can you use the DB you created for ProcessWire? Following this procedure would isolate the issue.
  16. I am working on a 200 page content rich Foundation based site (on ProcessWire of course) and it is working well. We have Lots of templates and leveraging lots of the features which made it worthwhile. What is nice is being able to focus on the site IA, the content, then layout, then layering styles on top like icing on a cake. Noticed some bugs, but they are pretty active on the dev side at Zurb. So not to much to worry about. The css from foundation and bootstrap can easily be made more manageable in size by simply including only the sass or less templates you need, based on features you are using. That goes for the javascript as well.

  18. @Jennifer S Take a look at this thread in the forums. Short answer is yes you could. Take a look at the API for repeaters and selectors.
  19. Take a look at this thread.. http://processwire.com/talk/topic/2561-hide-landing-page-keeping-children-visible/?hl=%2Bhide+%2Bpage
  20. Install - ProcessWire 2.3 dev Host: Ubuntu server - SMP - 12.04.2 LTS Apache Server: 2.2.22 PHP: 5.3.10 with suhosin patch MySQL: 5.5.29 Install success Admin console functional. Site pages loading fine (default profile). Added image to page , modified page content, installed optional modules. All ok so far.
  21. @ryan - Might make sense to open a new thread for this.
  22. Install - ProcessWire 2.3 dev Host: OSX 10.7.5 Apache Server: 2.2.22 PHP: 5.3.14 with APC 3.19 MySQL: 5.5.25 Install success Admin console functional. Site pages loading fine (default profile). No other tests done.
  23. In a corporate environment I would strongly suggest not hosting the intranet on the same server as a public facing site. In addition you would want to secure the intranet behind a firewall in a DMZ and use a web application firewall like mod security as well. Also you would typically separate your DB from your HTTP server and pass those communications through a FW and VLAN with monitoring. Sounds like overkill? Check out the cost for a typical compromise. Happens every day. I don't know your environment, but the fastest attack path against / into a company is compromising a site/server that employees use. That is not to say the PW is a security issue, but that security should be layered. And as soon as you start serving up sensitive corporate data, the game changes. Just saying.
