1.4?? already?

[Russ]

Hi Calguy, I don't mean to be funny but is the fix for the CMS producing non-standard forms included - strikes me that this is a quality issue and should be fixed ASAP?

Whilst this lists the issue with FEU, it is a core issue as you say in your replies. there have been other form issues with the core as well.

graded some of the sites I can upgrade to 1.3.1, but I am a bit hesitant of upgrading one 1.2.5 site (got postlet removed manually so apparently no risk involved), because it turns out that FCKEditor to which the client is used to does not work with Nuno's theme and 1.3.1. This need some more testing however.

Are you sure ... I. too, had prblems with FCK .. turned out that in the same time, Firefox was updated to Vesion 3, and FF is the culprit. With IE all seems to be fine. Still testing, though ...

cheers,
Alex

Hi Alex, mmm, same in Safari... hidden fields outside fieldset... not really a browser problem but the way in which the forms are generated I think?

CMS 1.4 will come with a translatable installer.  You'll be able to choose the language that you want to perform the installation in.  The installed version will still be in English for now, but at least those people with limitted english skills will be able to choose a language that is easier for them to read.

So Translators, please catch up on translations, and translate the CoreInstaller stuff at your earliest convenience.

Okay, so after a bunch of debate, and research by numerous people on the IRC channel, we've diagnosed the biggest of the problems with TinyMCE of late.  They are:

a) The program is usually running in a suexec or php/cgi environment
b) The instructions that people have been following for installation are inaccurate.

It's not really a problem with the code, it's a problem that this module, ImageManager, and perhaps FileManager behave slightly differently than all of the other ones.  Therefore there will be different problems under different environments.

The proper solution to this problem is to fix our install documentation.

So now, I'm looking for somebody who is proficient at (and admits it)... at writing documents, that is willing to help us write a text file, a wiki document, and perhaps a PDF or something to illustrate to people the proper steps for installing this package.

This document will be aimed at our target audience i.e:  the experienced web developer, not necessarily the IT professional, but certainly not the person that just graduated from the remedial-computer-lessons class. It should provide the basic steps to install CMS made simple in 80 to 90 percent of the hosts that can be found out there, but does not have to handle every permutation and combination of problem.

The intent of this document will to help minimize the support load, and provide a thorough document that most people can read and understand.

So I'm looking for volunteers,  I can't write this document myself... I'm not good at that type of thing.

i'll cover this a lil' bit here..

if this applies to you.. i.e. your php runs as your user, not the web server (do the umask test in global settings if you don't know, ask your host, or check who owns files in ./tmp/templates_c)....

then you do NOT and should NOT be using 777 permissions on ANYTHING. default file permissions of 644 and directory permissions of 755 will work; and should be the most 'lax' permissions you can have on a php file or a directory containing one... in order for it to run (otherwise you'll see 500 Internal Server Error messages in your error/server logs)

644/755 permissions in this environment still allows php (which would be running as your user account) to write files, such as to tmp and modules.. apache does NOT need write permissions nor does it need to own any files if your php runs as your user.

I can definitely write up documentation. Please let me know what to do/how to proceed to help.

Update... again... OMG Hopefully we'll be able to test it really thoroughly so it will be the stablest of the stable releases until 2.0 is out =)
