Peter Knight Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 Just updated one of my PW installations on my iPad on a boat in the middle of the Irish Sea. This amuses me for some reason :-/ Ever update your PW installation from somewhere 'wierd' ? 5
Joss Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 "I'm walking backwards to Christmas Across the Irish sea...." I'm too lazy to update from somewhere interesting. Though I did direct a vocalist over my phone sitting on Haytor rocks in Dartmoor. I was on the rocks, not the singer. 1
Ivan Gretsky Posted October 19, 2014 Posted October 19, 2014 Did you do it with the new module or the old way? I guess the places that we are may seem weird to others. PW is updated from thousands of weird places all over this crazy little spinning piece of rock.
Peter Knight Posted October 19, 2014 Author Posted October 19, 2014 Ivan - I upgraded with the new Upgrade module. I didn't even back up the database. See what 2 weeks of holiday in the UK does ... Makes you reckless and free. 1
Marty Walker Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 You've got me thinking that I might try an upgrade from here when I'm next there: http://www.scenicworld.com.au/experience/scenic-railway/ 1
Peter Knight Posted October 20, 2014 Author Posted October 20, 2014 Marty - say hi to Katoomba and the Blueys from me too. A magazine I used to read (PC format) had a regular piece whereby readers would take a photo of themselves around the world holding the latest issue. Reckon we should do a PW version from unusual or even usual places? 1
Joss Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 One of our TV progs (can't think which, but it may have been a kids programme or daytime magazine or similar) had this thing where they sent a teddy bear on holiday with various people. It was then photographed all over the world and the images shown on the programme. Something like that. So maybe design something like a small A4 poster that has the logo, the right colours and something on it like: "I updated ProcessWire From Here" Then you take a photo of the poster with wherever it is in the background. That could be somewhere exotic or even your back garden or down the pub. Up to you whether you are holding the poster or not. 1
Peter Knight Posted October 20, 2014 Author Posted October 20, 2014 @Joss - Sounds good.I'll mockup a flyer and make a PDF if thats cool? Could even be tagged #processwhere 1
Joss Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 Go for it Big and bold, strong contrasts - so it does not get lost in a landscape photo 1
pwired Posted October 20, 2014 Posted October 20, 2014 I won't have a car for some time coming wednesday. So I already prepared and bought a universal rechargable battery at media markt. It's an external box with selectable volt output between 15 and 20 volts but with lots of A/h. So with this powering my laptop plus my internet usb dongle I will be updating my sites all back in the bus 2
