+1 Pete for the Site5 recommendation. I've used them in the past and really liked their community. @Ryan I'm just getting into git for local development. When you say that Hostgator offers shell access, that includes git, correct? I've never required shell nor git on a host, but my current one will not allow it, so I'm looking to move soon.

So how would this work? Could you share a little snippet?

I'm using Foundation4. Check out this little code snippet they have. http://foundation.zurb.com/docs/components/breadcrumbs.html I'm just learning to use ProcessWire, as I've been trolling here for a long time. I haven't actually used it for a site yet. So I'm collecting all the snippets I need to use all my favorite elements and components from Foundation.

Awesome. I was trying to figure out HOW it works (my PHP skills are at beginner level). And I understand it ".($parent == $page?" class='current'":"")." So that's kinda like saying, if the page is the current page, put this class.

I searched for you on GITHUB and found the link, as it is no longer available on BitBucket https://github.com/adamspruijt/metrowire Can you update your post?

I also was saddened by the 404 download page

[Reviving an excellent topic]

Hi Ryan. I'm using the above and can't figure out how to style the current page. <ul class="breadcrumbs"> <li><a href="#">Home</a></li> <li><a href="#">Page1</a></li> <li><a href="#">Page2</a></li> <li class="current"><a href="#">Page3</a></li> </ul> How would I style the current page? This is what I have right now: echo "<ul class=\"breadcrumbs\">"; foreach($page->parents() ->append($page) as $parent) echo "<li><a href='{$parent->url}'>{$parent->title}</a></li>"; echo "</ul>";

If it's a permissions issue, that may point that out, as the installer would fail. I'm sure someone with more ProcessWire and migrating it to another server, will come along with better advice amigo.

I'd suggest trying a fresh install first. If that works, then replace the fresh installed files with the ones you moved over.

@Ryan Why not use something like http://openlayers.org/ or http://www.openstreetmap.org/ ?

Windows firewall would be my last guess. Maybe your antivirus disables that connection also?!

I'm sure it's a security issue with MediaTemple. I once tried that same scenario, to connect from my localhost LAMP install, to my webhost MySQL database. Everything I tried would NOT work. I finally decided to LiveChat with a host rep and they said it was disabled would could be turned on on a case-by-case basis, as long as I submitted a ticket request.

I'm a big fan of this one https://github.com/imsky/holder It runs locally via javascript.

@ricknew Why would you need to connect to Media Temple MYSQL from your XAMPP localhost? If you create a dump from the site and import it to your localhost, your connects will be MUCH faster. I'm sure you are running it locally for testing/development, right?

@Jennifer Please take all these comments and criticisms in the best constructive light possible. We mean the best for you and only want to help you. With that said, here are a few simple things you can do to speed up your site: 1. I see you are linking to foundation.css You should use foundation.min.css. It's 84KB, as compared to 101KB for the one you are using. A small difference, but many small differences make quite a big deal! 2. You are using lots of fonts no your site. Using many font styles can slow down your webpage, so only select the font styles that you actually need on your webpage. Instead of doing this: <link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400italic,700italic,400,300,700' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'> <link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Bitter:400,700,400italic' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'> Do this instead: <link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Bitter|Open+Sans' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'> I'm actually looking at those two fonts you chose and dig this up from my bookmarks: http://designshack.net/articles/typography/10-more-great-google-font-combinations-you-can-copy/ 3. Checkout http://yslow.org/ It's a browser addon/extension/plugin thingie that give your tips on improving your site speed. It's a great tool! We look forward to hearing from you.

Incredible site. Nicely done. I'm also a fan of Foundation3. Version 4 rolled out a couple nights ago.

yup, i received an email with the update. The demo looks awesome by the way! Well done amigo!

After seeing how popular HTML Kickstart is around here (http://processwire.com/talk/topic/2731-how-can-i-integrate-html-kickstarter-with-processwire/), I've decided to give it a go Foundation 4 was released yesterday and with it a bit more complexity. While I've been using it since v2, the tinkerer in me wants something new. Thanks to Joss and Ryan for converting me! (I have yet to get into the code, was wondering if I can nest the grid?)

I'm looking forward to this preview. It's always exciting to see what others build with ProcessWire.

I'm on my way out the door, so I'll make this quick: It would be nice to have the option to rename the backup.zip, or is it automated timestamp? Is this configurable to zip from the root up? or only user files and modules? [i'll make sure to come back and read the entire post later today just incase this was already covered.]

It's not a big deal, but just to create a little more consistency across the site. Maybe add a hover color #ff6759 to the logo.

woohoo! Now let's see what other odd things I spot! I tend to have an eye for this sort of thing. OH, hey Ryan, I just finished the tutorial here: http://wiki.processwire.com/index.php/Basic_Website_Tutorial I think it was written by Joss? I kinda recognized his writing style, but am not too sure. I came across a few mistakes. Shall I let him know? or how can I edit the Wiki entry?

LMAO I feel lame today. So simple. Thanks fellas!

GOSH, you guys make me feel so NEWBISH, hahaha. My creams are HTML and CSS.
