Re: Passing Default values to FormBuilder Multiselect

if you move away from the form samples (which are there more as generic all purpose templates to make sure the module can be used out of the box) you can do whatever you need, the mantra being to use pure HTML and the provided variables, so that a text input would be something like: <input type=&quo...

Re: LISE & UDT - Get previous item's id

Absolutely, go with what works for you and your client. Babysit it for a while to see if there are any drawbacks, but if not, it's golden.
And you are welcome! 8)

Re: Cannot update FormBuilder to versio 1.2

It's a bug in the XML generator used to create that installation file. I'll be solved in next release but for now, you can grab the archive from the forge and extract the files overwriting the already installed FormBuilder. The missing files should be there from that point on.

Re: LISE & UDT - Get previous item's id

Well, usually everything depends on the job requirements and the reliability of an algorithm. Databases don't usually recreate ids based on whether you delete a record or not for a number of reasons: 1 - the counter auto-increments in a way that reliably generates UNIQUE ids; 2 - it's totally agnost...

Re: LISE & UDT - Get previous item's id

Code: Select all


    # $db = \cms_utils::get_db(); // may or may not be needed...
  
    $query = 'SELECT MAX(item_id) FROM '
             . \cms_db_prefix()
             . 'module_' . $mod->_GetModuleAlias() . '_item';
    
    $last_id = (int)$db->GetOne($query);

That should work. Have fun!

Re: UDT Display Child Pages

I think you have a mix of issues there: - it seems you are mixing PHP and Smarty syntax there; - there is some legacy code that CMSMS doesn't support anymore; - possibly some PHP typos or syntax errors; I didn't test it but just corrected it to what it seemed a bit more logical and valid PHP code. T...

Re: LISE and custom field from smarty

Intialy it didn't work because of a" too many shorthand attributes" error. Having posted it by memory I suddenly realized there were a few syntax errors but it should have worked with: {* LISE Categories *} {$opts[''] = '- None -'} {foreach $categories as $category} {$opts[$category->cate...

Re: LISE and custom field from smarty

No, you are misunderstanding smarty... :) So what you are doing is a text representation of an array, which is not the same as an array. I would try this: {* LISE Categories *} {$opts [''] = '- None -'} {foreach $categories as $category} {$opts[{$category->category_id}] = {$category->name} {/foreach...

Re: TinyMCE

It is, and, honestly, there have been circumstances where the lack of proper testing of people aiming to help set us back months on what several times was an almost ready release, so it is, as everything, a double edge sword. I'm not going to go into any more details than what I just said. Additiona...

Re: TinyMCE

I know all of this and I hope that everything possible will be done to quickly enable full transition to PHP 8.1 and a recent version of Smarty. This goes for the core and say the 20 most used modules. But this must always be done while preserving backward compatibility with existing sites. And the...

Re: Smarty Updates

Too much ado about nothing, in my opinion. We have been having discussions in the Dev Team about the policies we want to adopt, or keep from those we already have, and one is to prevent as much as possible the amount of breakage from one major version to another and, to some extent, what features we...
