CMS Made Simple Forums

Hey! I'm not a n00b anymore! Anyhow - Okay. Bummer about images. I was thinking that it was more of a display/UI thing: type="image" would bring up an image browse window instead of the FCK editor on the page editing screen. You browse, select, maybe enter some ALT text, etc. But then all ...

Er... We're looking at this, and I don't get it. So you can put this in a template: {image name="foo.jpg"} instead of: Is that it? I'm unclear as to how useful this is... we had something a little more something more like {content name="headerImage" type="image"} in min...

Well - This moves the conversation into an entirely different realm, because we're straying into the realm of "brand," and I'd argue that design/brand is incredibly important. They've now determined that people make subconscious decisions about web sites in a split second, so you don't hav...

Thanks Jelle -

I'll see what we can do. It's the age old problem of design vs. scalability.

Apparently we played around with !important tags, but since user CSS takes precedence, there's not much we can do, save for trying to make the whole design scale. That's tough. 

Jelle -

Can you provide more detail on this error? How can I reproduce so that I can fix? I suppose we need to add some "!important" tags for the menu declarations. Thanks for the tip.

Oh, we're making good progress, especially on the module-module. The module-module provides a CRUD interface (Create-Read-Update-Delete), a tab to create templates to display the data on the pages, a tab to create templates to display the data in the admin, and a tab where you can create MySQL queri...

Thanks for your reply -

I didn't hear anything, but I did manage to find a great local resource - an old aquaintance, which makes it even better. Interesting about the scriptlance idea, though.

Thanks! Yes, we pride ourselves on our designs. Unfortunately, there are a couple of pages on this site where they've 'broken' the templates - we have to continually tell them not to copy and paste from Word, that sort of thing. Now that we've discovered oneline=true we can make our templates a litt...

Holy crap! thanks.

I put it in version.php just to debug - didn't realize that was included! Thanks.

I'll put the code in index.php.

Wa-hoo!

Awesome, thanks. Will CMS wonders never cease?

Aha! So it's an ADODB / PHP 4.x thing. That makes total sense, as the CraigslistFoundation site is on a 4.x environment. I'll see if they can provide me with a PHPMyAdmin interface to test this. Is the code snippet you mention something I should leave in there to optimize for this environment? I can...

Basically, a simplified content type that would enable users to select an image for inclusion on a page. Display would be handled by the underlyng template. Obviously you *can* insert images via the WYSIWYG editor, or by editing the raw HTML, but this gives the novice user FAR too much ability to co...

wysiwyg = false is a great start. What we'd like is to be able to specify how large a box to display on the Page editing screen. For example, we'll set up a template where we divide a page up into a headline, and the main body. Currently, both display large content editing boxes, when all we really ...

Hey Wishy - First: I love, love, love CMS. I chose to migrate to CMS because of the feature set and the general impression that the dev brains behind it were top notch. I've since had two very experienced programmers take a look and both have been extremely impressed. Congratulations. Anyhow, could ...

Thanks Patricia - I saw that thread - but a couple of sleeping connections *shouldn't* be such a problem. The usage was going a lot higher than that. And I worry that shutting down those two persistent connections might slow CMS down. I guess the question then becomes, "Can CMS open a large num...
