I lost 85% of our clients to WordPress due to page builders like Elementor. They aren't concerned with code clutter, page speed and SEO disadvantages. I would love some offerings in that direction, I am aware that this maybe will open Pandora's box. Some praise here for ProcessWire: ProcessWire is unbeatable for websites that almost work as applications. We coded the whole backend office management for our web design firm with ProcessWire including tons of SEO-, Data protection-monitoring- and wp-plugin-updates-montitoring crawlers and checkers: We kind of remote control WordPress from ProcessWire. Clients can log in and see everything they booked at a glance, and can order things directly from ProcessWire, and it is directly connected to the invoicing app. This is a unique system, 10 years of work in it and now makes the entire company manageable by a minimal team, unthinkable without ProcessWire. Thinks I would like in PW4 are things I am used to from WordPress, a full switch to utf8mb4, those needed GDPR utilities out of the box, modules can be "deactivated" leaving the settings intact, and "removed" to make troubleshooting modules compatibility issues much easier. Some image optimization capabilities would be great, the existing 3rd party modules do not meet our expectations yet. Also a good monitoring/curation of outdated/abandoned modules, with supplied warnings, would be great; there are a lot of those old modules, unfortunately.

This is really useful. Some ideas which would make it easier to understand for my editors: Would it be possible to output a rounded value? There is no extra benefit from the super accurate floating value, and they are harder to read, especially if the decimal divider is not country styled typical, but US. I would like to be able to set a threshold value in the module and store texts for it, such as "too short", "too long".

Here I have it like this: If a field is mandatory, also the intitial value field is also mandatory (not always intended by me). If a field is not mandatory, the initial value field is also not mandatory.

Hi, this can be very useful, thank you. Why is an initial value mandatory and not optional?

There is a warning with your composer version when running PHP 8.1: PHP Warning: Uninitialized string offset 0 in .../SymmetricEncryptedText/vendor/composer/ClassLoader.php:375

shows still as "version": "1.5.61" after the update?

@zoeck yes that is possible. ProcessWire was fiddling with the modules recently. - I drop a note in PW "issues".

@horst is this still supported?

@horst - The latest ProcessWire DEV 3.0.220 seams to break the WireMailSmtp module (namespace fatal errors) after a module recompiling. Class "ProcessWire\WireMailSmtp" not found I cannot reach the settings any more and probably it does also not send out mails. Isn't it a good idea to drop compatibility to ancient ProcessWire 2 versions and add the ProcessWire namespace in your code, so it does not compile?

Really? Isn't this field basically a nicely decorated number field, storing only 1 value? It outputs as "5" in my frontend. (Maybe I got the concept wrong?) That has a value of its own, and I start using it in forms. What I'm looking for now, is a mix of these stars and the Pro module "Likes" from @ryan. So a user can not only "like" but also rate with one click. And I have the total number of voters with the average rating, which can then be submitted for SEO as rich content. "Likes" also has a simple fraud protection. Too bad, "Likes" seems not to be in development any more. User interaction becomes more and more important with SEO. (Or like the "Comments"-Field but only with the rating - textual comments can be a pain - but "Likes" is so cool because it's just 1 click and not a form.)

Sorry I was not precise: It can display stars, but I could not figure out to extend this to a user rating system where users do the rating and average stars are displayed. Probably not.

There is actually no working frontend user rating module existing currently, correct? This field works great for other purposes, but is not suitable as a frontend star rating module, is it?

To ask differently - is someone caring it remains up-to-date with PHP and PW? (This is one of my favourite modules I use)

utf8_encode and utf8_decode functions are deprecated in PHP 8.2 Hi, I am curious if this module still actively maintained?

Update: in my case the issue was not language related. This code snippet helped to identifying a broken display condition for a field in the template: So it's worth looking in all directions. I wonder why PW does not show such issues more precisely by default.
