That's definitely keeping me from joining and voting.

Maybe try copying the User Authentication Salt from the local to remote server location /** * Installer: User Authentication Salt * * Must be retained if you migrate your site from one server to another * */ $config->userAuthSalt = 'xxxxxxxyourusersaltxxxxxxxxxxxx';

Real-Life Example Website: crms.sdtool.info Purpose: Collaborative Resource Management System (CRMS) Ok, this website uses Adrian's Protected Mode module to control access to the website. ProcessWire (PW) Roles are then used throughout to control access to selected pages. Fields within templates are also controlled via this method. These PW Roles are added at each PW template using the Access Tab. I use a concept I call a "Security Container" that sits at the top of the PW Page Tree (backend) on the website. This is how the "Security Container"is explained on the website: Each "Security Container" has a PW template that controls who has access to that particular page. Once again, access is gained via one or more PW Roles. You have to have access to the gateway "Security Container" page to get to any pages under it. My Client: (I will be using the name Axxxx, as I still need to respect confidentiality and privacy) is an Internet Marketing and Investment Company in the Washington DC Metropolitan Area. They provide selected SEO services to their clients. My role with this client is to provide back-end Internet-based infrastructure support for Axxxx and their clients. This comprises of: Manage/maintain existing web hosting user accounts (SSH/SFTP) and creating new ones (when required) Database creation and upkeep Domain and SSL/TLS registrations Wordpress website installations, day-to-day back-end management and upkeep Email domain/account creation, back-end management and upkeep (website, plug-ins and themes) Centralized database backups and restorals Analytics management using Google Tag Manager/Analytics, Piwik and Woopra Work with Wordpress developers, on behalf of the client, to integrate third-party plug-ins or capabilities Accessing Axxxx Client Data or Resources The Axxxx Client has three possible PW Roles that can be assigned: axxxx-client-access (Contractors or any outside Axxxx related entity) axxxx-manager-access (Axxxx Business Owner or Manager) axxxx-staff-access (Axxxx Staff who aren't at the manager level) The top-level Axxxx "Security Container" Page ensures that only the above three PW Roles have access to Axxxx data or resources. Whenever an Axxxx employee logs into the website, they only see Axxxx related information. Form-Based Page Submissions All newly created pages (by clients) make extensive use of Ryan's Form Builder module. Support request pages and emails are created using this handy tool. Each client has dedicated Form Builder forms that are applicable to their particular mission. Email-Based Page Submissions All my clients have the capability to submit updates or new submissions to me through email. I use the fantastic Email To Page module by Pete and Adrian to achieve this feat. I now make extensive use of Twilio based communications capabilities due this module being installed on this website. Axxxx Company Clients The Axxxx Client company has clients of their own and their data is stored within the website's "Client Portal" Security Container. They can all see the "Client Portal" page (but not any CStevensJr or Axxxx data) and each has an individual named page (which is a "Security Container" for their permissions) under it. PW Roles are used here also to segregate access to each client's own data. Whenever a Axxxx client logs into the CRMS, they only see the "Client Portal" PW Page and beneath that their own data/resources. Final Thoughts PW has an extensive Roles and Permissions system which has significantly improved over the last year. I previously made use of Ryan's Page Edit Field Permission module but now use the greatly expanded native permissions instead. My SDTool Project has progressed very nicely and is being expanded to make use of all the great new capabilities that PW provides. I hope this rather long explanation is helpful. This is just one way I work with PW. I will, in the next few months, provide some more promised updates on the SDTool Project (in the linked post) .

No problem, Give me a little while and I will write something up.

I strongly agree. This is a process that I use frequently and it works well.

I've already read 19 pages and (to me) it is a very enjoyable read. Thanks for the link. I've downloaded the pdf for further reading on my iPad.

Great work (as always), @Macrura!

On the modules page http://modules.processwire.com/ Click "View All". This list does have pagination, however it shows all published modules. I don't think a continuous long list would be suitable on a web page.

@GuruMeditation, You and everyone on this forum are an important part of this ProcessWire Community. Learning the many things about ProcessWire can be difficult, I know it's taken me a long time. I'm still learning about module development. I would hope that you don't give up or think that your concerns have no merit. The fact that you bring them up, means that we are made aware and I know there are many people on this forum willing to help with anyones understanding. Everyone's level of understanding is different, however I believe you will get there. Things in ProcessWire are changing all the time, unfortunately the documentation doesn't always translate into concepts that novices (me included) can quickly understand. I know I work with things and eventually the lightbulb comes on and I can move on. Finally, ProcessWire is a great tool that can help you do many things. There are many things to learn and I hope that you will continue to ask questions, as we all learn something new when people give freely of their knowledge as they do on this forum.

2016 is starting off with an enormous bang! Great work @horst.

I believe you need to click the "More Reply Options" button, which will bring up the full editor. Then you can add your images.

Windows 7/8 has reached end-of-life for mainstream support. You only have Windows 8.1 and 10 for mainstream support. Windows extended support still covers Windows Vista to Windows 10. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/lifecycle

This will be a boon to anyone supporting clients who haven't upgraded their Windows browser technology. This announcement is directly related to ending all technical support issues that deal with entrenched Windows XP/2000/Vista installations (hint: there are still a lot of them out there).

@SyberKnight, Welcome to the ProcessWire Forums. When you have some time, please review our Community Rules Guidelines. It will detail what is permitted or not permitted within this community. Thanks.

I believe this is also associated with trying to access WP sites.

What happens if you copy the ZeroClipboard.swf file to the /repair/assets/flash/ directory?

I finally figured out why the websites with the Protected Mode module (yes I didn't use the correct module name earlier) are not showing up ---- a look at the view source shows the following for my internal website odmc.sdtool.info: <!DOCTYPE html> <head> <meta charset='utf-8' /> <style> .container { margin: 360px; } legend { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; display: block; width: 100%; margin-bottom: 1rem; color: #6F6F6F; } button { font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 100%; padding: 0.5em 1em; background-color: #006DD3; color:#fff; text-decoration: none; border: 0 rgba(0,0,0,0); border-radius: 2px; } button:hover, button:focus { background-color: #007DD2; } button:focus { outline: 0; } input[type='text'], input[type='password'] { font-size: 100%; padding: 0.5rem; display: inline-block; border: 1px solid #ccc; box-shadow: inset 0 1px 3px #ddd; border-radius: 4px; -webkit-box-sizing: border-box; -moz-box-sizing: border-box; box-sizing: border-box; } </style> </head> <body> <div class='protected-mode-container'> <form class='protectedModeForm' action='./' method='post'> <legend><h1>PLEASE LOG IN</H1></legend> <input type='text' name='username' placeholder='Username'> <input type='password' name='pass' placeholder='Password'> <button type='submit' name='login'>Login</button> </form> </div> </body> </html>

I don't believe the ProcessWire version is the cause. All of my internal systems are running current (at least 2.7.2 versions of ProcessWire). There are in deed unknown factors that are causing this problem and now that you have identified a problem, it can be researched and fixed.

You have already brought this up in the following post: https://processwire.com/talk/topic/11629-developing-barbaracolcom/#entry109521 Where I commented" At least cross-reference this post in that one. Thanks.

As @LostKobrakai correctly stated in response #4, you need to bring up this request or any other enhancements/issues in the FormBuilder Support Forum.

Are you using separate databases or the same database?
