  1. Welcome to forums, SA_DESIGNER You should write a couple of lines of code in your template to output your image. Your code should go something like this: if (count($page->images)){ foreach ($page->images as $image) { echo "<img src='{$image->url}' alt='{$image->description}'</img>"; } } Replace images with the name of your image field. See site/templates/basic-page.php and head.inc for an example with thumbs. Cheers.
  2. Congratulations, Ryan. It's just first glimpses of future fame, I guess. I could make a review on a Russian website similar to Smashing Magazine. But your site has to be ready for an effect it can make.
  3. Ryan, this is just great! I would be happy to beta-test it on my local server and maybe to begin translation if it's already possible. Everything is clear, but I didn't quite understand where the translation is taken from during runtime. Is it kept in memory as an object or is it parsed from JSON file every time translation is needed?
  4. What a pity people can't read each other's minds I think everybody liked it, I can't see it's offensive in any way. Well, maybe it is for Drupal users because of fake bicepses ;D Here's another good flavor
  5. This is why I get empty titles. I renamed admin pages in Russian, so it seems like they get stripped. Edit: Ryan, I have a question. PW's default encoding is ANSI. In order to make templete files work with Russian symbols I often have to convert them to UTF-8 without BOM (I use Notepad++). Do you have any strategy about encoding (espesially with the realease of multilanguage back-end support)? I think that using UTF-8 considered now the best practice. I'm not very experienced in this question, but I never had any problems with UTF-8.
  6. Yes, I flushed both browser and PW caches. I use Chrome v 14.0.835.202 running on Windows. It's weird 'cause html code for the menu goes like this: <ul id="nav"> <li><a href="/processwire/page/"></a></li> <li><a href="/processwire/setup/"></a></li> <li><a href="/processwire/module/" class="active"></a></li> <li><a href="/processwire/access/"></a></li> </ul> So the text of the links is missing.
  7. Looking great, but have this issue in Chrome. Also top Save button is missing. I believe, Ryan posted something about cloning bottom Save button to the top using jQuery. It works in original theme, but seems like doesn't work in yours. Cheers
  8. Wow! This topic is pretty intense Soma, that gag is really funny, though it's not 100% what I was imagining while writing ;D I'm really surprised it's getting so much feedback especially taking in consideration my limited knowledge of English. Maybe it's really worth using as a tagline This is really great news! Yeah, this issues with opensource cms is quite disturbing, I also used this site a lot, but I always was pretty skeptical about voting systems. And this site is no exception, there are CMSs listed that have several hundred votes and hardly a single review ) So I usually just read what other users had written. But I still think it's good that now PW is represented there. Many people visit this site and often they try out demo before making final decision. It's pretty sad, but Amazon system also can't be fully trusted. There are a lot of hired guns there who make a living writing reviews, some of them manage to write a dozen of them daily. From IT books to blenders. So, don't believe the hype I posted my almost identical reviews on both sites. The one posted on opensourcecms is still awaiting moderation. Definitely! I would never think of such a thing like jQuery CMS. Custom fields, fast backend, easy api are all good candidates for using in seo because almost all CMSs at the moment suck in this respect.

    Happy birthday Ryan!

    Let me join to others We have here which has a line that reads "My years are my wealth". Happy birthday, Ryan!!!
  10. I remember I was searching using google, frustrated after realizing that MODx Revo back-end is not going to be faster soon because it's based on ExtJS and it's heavy as hell. I didn't expect too much, because previously I was trying to find a CMS that would embody my vision of a good one, but was getting no results that would satisfy my needs. Every time I was finding something I felt like the architecture is not well thought out (MODx Evo) or code is poorly documented (Joomla) or that system is bloated and require a lot of hacking to get it working the way you want and its API is not intuitive (Drupal). I was looking, first of all, for a reasonably fast CMS with a concise, intuitive API, custom fields and a simple back-end. So I googled something like this: custom fields easy api cms. Bingo!!! The first result (at least in my area) is processwire.com, the second is an article on cmscritic.com, but it's dated by 3rd of october 2011, so it wasn't there at that time. So after finding it, I watched a video on the main page and liked it very much, Ryan is really good at explaining things. And on contrary (with Diogo) I really liked that personal flavor of the video, maybe because I was tired of all that standard marketing stuff that you can find on CMS websites. I was amazed by the simplicity and elegance of the back-end. I even began to doubt that it can really provide all necessary functionality. How wrong I was! Then I proceeded to API pages and they blew my mind, I began feeling that I found a true piece of software/art. Then I went to Ryan's personal website and took a look at the sites he made and I must say, I loved them. Island Hideaway, Tripsite and Directory of Scholars really impressed me, especially after seeing PW's minimalictic backend. I realized that PW is a weightlifter in the body of a ballerina (maybe you'll want to use this as a tagline) ;D Then I installed it, that was easy. I was reading through all the articles on processwire.com and toying with PW for some time. The only thing that was hard to understand is templates vs. template files ambiguity. So I regestered here, asked and after Apeisa's thorough answer all doubts gone I became a PW's neofit. Thank you Ryan!!! P.S. Maybe I should use this post (with some editions) as a review of PW on opensourceCMS?
  11. Guys, I'll be happy to help with translation to give something back to community. So just tell me when you are ready.
  12. Wow! Already 52 votes on opensource cms. When I gave my 5 stars there were only about 6 votes. Ryan, I think your great cms gonna be a bomb soon On alternative to there are comments and reviews, they're not so easy to spot though (just above filter controls). Liked PW there too.
  13. Cool idea, Apeisa! Totally agree here. This would make navigation much faster.
  14. Wow! This is really cool feature. Though not sure I'll be building sites that heavy on traffic anytime soon. Anyway, thank you, Ryan!
  15. I use the latest version and adding templates works for me. It takes me to setup/template/add as usual.
  16. Yeah, I see your point. Maybe it's not that bad to have it the way it is But would be nice at least let a user know (maybe with a flash message) that a page has unpublished links in its pagelist inputfield.
  17. My fault. I didn't clear cache. Everything works great. Thank you, Soma!
  18. Hi, Ryan. I tried the scenario when I link from one page to another -> unpublish linked page -> the linked page doesn't show up in pageselect intutfeild. But if I republish it later, it appears again. So user can't even know that they have link to unpublished page, and can't delete it until they publish that page again. May I propose: if unpublished page is linked from somewere, not to hide it from user, just cross it out in pageselect inputfield too. That would eliminate any ambiguity. Cheers and thank you for your great cms
  19. Soma, I've been using your pretty cool theme for a while and it seems that "sorting drag position" issue still remains (at least in Chrome). Cheers
  20. Great theme, Soma! I installed it and it looks very cool. It seems like there's something wrong with download count. A couple of things that could be improved, IMHO, are: 1) Change color of that green gradient jqui buttons and controls to more appropriate 2) Make luminocity effect of a current tab less distinctive (too much contrast, would be great to have it more subtle) 3) Maybe change the color of the title from white to less distinctive. 4) And yes, it would be really nice to change TinyMCE background. Keep it up!
  21. Thank you, Ryan. I'm kind of visual type, that's why I was asking. I'll check this classes more closely.
  22. Good to know system's getting more mature. I see it when tracking commits on github and downloading new versions. The more I dive into PW the more I like it ;D Unfortunately, I don't have much experience in webdev, but I'm learning a lot of things here. Thank you, guys! Ryan, I have a bit offtopic question. Do you have a UML class diagram of PW? I would be very handy to see the whole structure of the system to better understand its architecture.
  23. I saw this twit of Ryan on how to find all hooks of PW, but it works only for Linux. I use Windows at home, so I surfed some sites to find how to do the same thing on my OS. Use this: d: cd d:\xampp\htdocs\processwire findstr /s /i /l /n /c:"function ___" *.* > hooks.txt Of course, you have to substitute disk and path, so your root processwire folder is specified. You'll get hooks.txt, containing all lines with hookable functions and its line number in the file. Use Ctrl+F to search a needed string. If you are really lazy, just use the file attached hooks.txt
