Couple o questions...

[BamaRob]

I've noticed a couple of "issues" that I wanted to see if anyone else had noticed.

First, sometimes when I hit the Logout menu item, I get:

Code: Select all

Logging out.  Redirecting to login page...

but it never redirects. It just sits there.

Second, when I create a new News item, I can never get it to submit unless I leave the start date and end date fields blank. I'm entering dates exactly like the pattern shown (i.e. '2004-09-24 08:00:00', without the single quotes, of course). I can submit the news item with the dates blank, then edit it. In edit mode, entering the dates works fine. The problem is with the initial submit.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

P.S. My graphic design partner loved the prototype site I put together with CMS, so it looks like we'll be moving forward developing a client site with it. You guys aren't planning any major backend changes to CMS in the near future, are you?

Can we not edit our posts in this forum?

Anyhow, I forgot one question...

I have cms running on my laptop (HP Pavilion zv5120us / Debian Sid). When I connect to the network at the office, I get assigned a (fairly static) IP address. And I can access my CMS site from my desktop workstation by navigating to http://123.456.789.000/cms/ . Of cource when the laptop is not connected to the network, I can open a browser and navigate to the web root by navigating to http://bilbo/ or http://localhost or http://127.0.0.1 . However, when not connected to the network, if I go to http://bilbo/cms/, I get the main page, but if I click on a menu item that should link to mypage.html, it tries to go to http://123.456.789.000/cms/index.php?page=mypage. Of course, this doesn't work because 123.456.789.000 is not a valid address when I'm not connected.

The solution that I"ve come up with is this:

I copied config.php to config.php.dhcp and to config.php.local and changed the appropriate lines in each. Then when I'm connected to the network, I overwrite config.php with config.php.dhcp. And, when I'm not connected, I overwrite config.php with config.php.local.

I've never had to do anything like this with any other cms packages (I have phpWebsite installed, and recently removed Mambo).

Any hints?

Thanks,

I'll look into both issues. The second is probably some obvious. The first might be more difficult to track down.

As for backend changes, nothing. We will always make an upgrade path and we strive to keep backwards compatibility. If something major changes, we'll be sure to give everyone some major advance warning.

I'm glad she loved the system. That's great if the "non-techies" are loving it too.

The problem with adding News items is fixed in svn. It'll be in the next release. It was really a stupid bug. I'll try to track down the other one.

Thanks!

Glad to help. I'll jump on IRC before too long. I think I'd like to get more involved with this project.
