Hey, this is a piece of wood, but you have to be a carpenter to build a table from it ... So what? I think argos' comment puts a spotlight on how the CMS market divides into two sections: one for - more or less - out-of-the-box solutions and one for more elaborated pieces of work, which require some skills. There is nothing wrong with the demand for out-of-the-box solutions, but PW definitely addresses another market segment. Why should this be wrong or change?

I think the reason why most of us want to see PW as business CMS is, that we want to do the cool projects with a tool that is more flexible, capable, reliable as for example Typo 3 is. Right? So, why is Typo 3 regarded as "enterprise cms" (at least in Germany) and PW is not (yet)? Imho simply because it was the first tool on the market that gave agencies (the cool ones, with big clients) a tool to work on elaborated websites. It was simply one of the first movers - and I personally believe, this is still its strongest asset. Very much more important than platinum support and all this kind of stuff. Decision makers buy it, because they know it - please correct me if I'm wrong. So, what is the learning from this for marketing PW? I think it could be helpful to: Highlight solutions over features. Enterprise level sites already exist (ok, more or less) and we should look for a way to promote this solutions more Improve awareness in major agencies. They are the key multipliers for "selling" PW for big projects. Stay patient. PW has gained much attention in just some one or two years. It is on a good route. Very soon more and more bigger agencies will discover, what it can to for them ... Finally, I can only second that.

Sorry diogo, I was offline for more than a week (vacation). The font looks pretty good now on my machine.

Thank you all for your kind comments. And sorry for my late reply - I was offline for a week. @MadeMyDay The issue here is ul.recent-posts - but it is closed (check for yourself with Firebug). That's why I don't understand the validation error. The framework is Unsemantic. The only responsive grid I know that offers backward compatibility down to IE7 - a feature I need as I have many clients in the health sector. I assume that's why the expressions are there. Will do.

Hmm, can I speak to my lawyer please? Honestly, simply a 301 from the former TLD to /blog. The perfect way would have been a 1:1 redirect for each post - somewhat less than 80 at the time of migrating. Considering the tight budget I decided to set other priorities. However, this is a very particular business the client runs. It won't take long to rank perfect for the relevant search terms ...

Hi forum, I got a new one online last week: www.ecotec.de A fully responsive website for a German consulting firm specialized in cost-cutting strategies for industries with high energy consumption. Again based on my - evolved - Unsemantic Site Profile which allows for responsive sites compatible down to IE7. The site incorporates a former stand-alone WP blog which has been integrated into the new site. For this I used the new Migrator and Wordpess Migrator modules and got grandiose personal support from adrian and nico. Thank you guys, you were extremely helpful and patient. Other modules used: Admin Save Actions AIOM+ Email Obfuscator Markup Simple Navigation and Superfish flyout navigation (not a PW module) However, though I learned a lot from this project and improved my coding skills, I didn't fall in love with the site. In particular I'm unhappy with the purple/gray color scheme. Originally the project scope included a - soft - redesign of the brand appearance. But while the process was ongoing, my client somehow realized that he was still in love with his logo, his Futura font (buh!) and his purple primary color (buh, buh!). We had some very tough discussions about this in the middle of the project, but what can you do? At the end, here we are: in a purple dream. I hope I made the best out of it. One last thing (no, not what you think): The front page doesn't validate. The validator claims open elements in the blog posts section of the front page. For heaven's sake, I can't find an error in my code. So, if someone finds out why, please let me know. Cheers

Very sleek, very cool, very wonderful. However, some comments on the German version: I'm on chrome (latest) and win 8.1. the font looks very washed out, fuzzy (see screenshot). Generally speaking, the copy-writing could be a bit more let's say "laid back" or "inspired". Some examples: "Unser Service umfasst, aber beschränkt sich nicht auf:" -> very complicated sentence. why not make two sentences out of it? "Nach einigen Wochen intensiver Arbeit ist unsere neue Webseite endlich geschaltet!" -> "Nach einigen Wochen intensiver Arbeit ist unsere neue Webseite endlich online!" Yes, online is an English word - but wtf, it sounds better. And - advise from an advertising guy - no one cares if it was weeks of hard work. It's online, that's the news that matters). "diesen ganau zu befolgen" -> "diesen genau zu befolgen" - but apart from that, that's kind of officialese, somehow not the perfect fit for a portfolio website. Just a few examples. If possible for you, I would suggest to get in touch with a German friend who is experienced with copy-writing. I'm sure she/he could contribute to your website. But, apart from that, great design, great functionality. Cool.

I've tried 30 years to understand MS Word and didn't succeed ...

I strongly agree with apeisa here and, to be honest, I really don't understand this discussion about WP and PW. How could one compare this two systems? Imho PW targets a completely different group of users. Trying to move significant market share from WP to PW would mean to give up what makes PW unique. PW is a high precision instrument meant for experienced surgeons while WP is part of the medicine chest found in an average household. The have very few in common. I'm glad that it is like this and that PW can't be evaluated in 30 minutes (wait: it can. If you are experienced with web development you will discover its potential within 30 minutes while it takes some time to understand how to make use of it).

Think it was my fault. Double clicked or so.

Wait, shouldn't I be senior already?

Does that mean, if I post a lot of silly questions, I'll be promoted? Well, that's easy ...

-Home --Credit Card ---Newsletter (only renders) --Widgets ---Social ---Newsletter (holds the content and renders it) Right? Than see above. Or - alternatively for a specific field - use $page->get("selector").

Not sure if I understand your question right, but you can render the content of a page easily with another page. See here: http://wiki.processwire.com/index.php/Including_a_page_in_another_page

Sorry folks, I got it sorted by removing dev.mysite.com from $config->httpHosts in config.php Sorry for posting too quick.

Hello Forum, I have a weird problem with a new site: It was developed on the live server under an url like dev.mysite.com. Now the client's hosting company has put the site live and one can reach it under mysite.com. The problem is: all "view" links in the admin still point to dev.mysite.com. The same is true for all links in the sitemap generated by Ryan's sitemap script. In .htaccess users are redirected to www. version - no other changes were made. I'm not very good with server configuration matters. So any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

I tried to understand what this is all about. Do users post everyday and/or political/social issues here and others vote/discuss on it? If so, it must have been a rather complex project. You say you are a PHP noob, but this seems to be a pretty elaborated piece of work. I can't comment the overall design as I don't understand the topics discussed but I'm impressed by the complexity and would like to learn more about how PW helped you to realize this website (e.g. modules, custom solutions etc.).

I would definitely be interested though I'm afraid I can't much contribute as my PHP knowledge is still very limited ...

If you would like mypage/cars not to show up in lists and searches go to edit -> settings and tick the box hidden. Depending on how you render your menu/navigation the page won't show up anymore. But note that its url (the one with the redirect) will only be accessible if someone enters the url directly into the browser.

this is, btw, true and sad at the same time.

This is very weird. Try to edit the summary. Can you safe what you write in there? If so, something might be broken/corrupt with your body and/or sidebar fields. Try to replace them. If you can't safe the page at all, report back please. EDIT: Have you checked your server environment? (https://github.com/ryancramerdesign/ProcessWire#troubleshooting-installation) Is your site/config.php and site/templates writeable?

I found, that the title tag is still an extremely important element. Try it out by amending keywords in the tag from time to time and see how your site performs. With every new site I spent some thinking and effort on the browser title with mostly very good results.

that's pretty cool, isn't it?

@cwsoft from my impression the rising star for 2.4. is modesta: http://modules.processwire.com/modules/admin-theme-modesta/ why not check it out?
