Wishy here is some more information regarding the phplayers problem. With today's daily and a fresh install including database. I get a page display but the phplayers menu only shows the home link, no submenu. WindowsXP Pro, Apache 1.3.33, MySQL 4.0.24, PHP 4.3.11
View source shows:
Home Page >" />
If I click on the Home menu item I get a javascript error with the following detail:
Hope this info helps in finding the elusive bug.

Some good commits this evening before I start my Cocoa programming...
- Added RSS autodiscovery link, but ONLY if news module is used on the page
- Changed PHPLayers so that the javascript includes in only show if the module is actually used in the page/template
Greg,
Can you paste the top part that PHPLayers makes? Should start with something like: menuTopShift = 6;
Really the key line is: listl = ['L1']; I'm betting money that the L1 is missing...
Thanks!

Re: Status of next release - language selection?

In response to the question regarding language selection at login - it is not immediately apparent where the language settings are, or that other languages are even available once the users is in admin (assuming the user understands what 'valid user credentials' are in their language)...
Most multi-language applications and sites allow you an option to choose another language fairly early in the session
Also, if options were included to control which admin sections are available to specific users there's a risk that a user may not have access to the preferences section
It doesn't (didn't) really get in the way anyway.
I wouldn't discard the idea as 'useless'

That's exactly what I thought. Apparently we're the only ones, though.

pinthenet - I can only talk from my point of view, nothing else. That is for business clients where I myself set up a accounts for them(with language choice) so for me it is 'useless' and gives a nuke feeling. And they are only two clicks away from changing the languages but I assume that the admin have already set up the correct language for the users already anyway.
I also assume that most of the finished cms-sites will be runned by users with the same language. Maybe when we have a multilanguge frontend CMS there could be a need for a choice in the login.
But the ultimate solution is ofcourse as always choices choices choices from the admin...
Feels more professional now to...

P.S. Oh, wishy posted before my comment...hehe...but the real difference here is that you are in total control and can play god!
Re: Status of next release? - Template edit width

If the width of the admin remains 100%. It would be nice if The template editing textarea could take advantage of the extra space.
The Image Manager does not behave well with 100% width in IE.
In Firefox it looks good, but as you add pictures, the full width is not used.
The height of the ImageManager could be increased to allow at least two rows of thumbnails.

PHPLayers bug with php4 is fixed and committed!!!
Please test me, though.
I think I'm going to release beta4 tomorrow, since the major bugs are taken care of. I know we have little issues left, but I don't think any are showstoppers. I'd like to get 0.10 finished sometime this year.

With 1750 I get the following
LayersMenu Error: setTpldir: d:\aaaweb\cms\modules\PHPLayers\phplayers/d:\aaaweb\cms\modules\PHPLayers/phplayers/templates/ is not a directory.
Halted.
By commenting out line 274 of phplayers.module.php everything works

Same here - what are the side effects of commenting out the line?

Commented 274. Uncommented 275. It should be good now. I always forget you windows people.

To eliminate the vertical scrollbar in IE the following needs to be changed in the admin style sheet:
table.pagetable { margin-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 5px; border: 1px solid #c6c3bd; font-size: 1em; width: 100%; }
to this
table.pagetable { margin-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 5px; border: 1px solid #c6c3bd; font-size: 1em; width: 97%; }
