Filtering with “later than” isn’t working in 2.3.2

Sun, 19 May 2013 13:23:00 +1000

By thebestsophist

I think I’m going crazy.

I’m using 2.3.2 (master) on my dev environment (php 5.4.6, mysql 5.5.31) and testing/live (php 5.3.5, mysql 5.1.54, I know, old), and have found that filtering datasources by later than {$x} and equal to or later than {$x} isn’t working. I have sites using 2.3.1 that are working in both environments. earlier than works perfectly.

Anyone else seeing this problem? Should I revert to symphony 2.3.1 and cross my fingers that it magically starts working in 2.3.3?

(I’ve tried with a brand new install with only the default extensions, so nothing else is causing my problems.)

CSS editor on textarea fields

Sat, 18 May 2013 12:02:00 +1000

Hi,

Is there a way I could enable CSS syntax highlighting inside the textarea of a section?

I know there is an extension that enables CodeMirror highlighting but it seems to work only with utilities and pages textarea in the backend.

Thank you.

Upload filesize limit issues

Hi,

For some reason I cannot upload large files. I have increased the maximum allowed upload size in the config file. I have also increased the local server allowed upload size. But still no success. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Symposium 2013

Fri, 17 May 2013 18:35:00 +1000

By stuartgpalmer

Has anyone thought about a Symposium meet-up for 2013? I was sorry to miss the last event and would love to see a European venue this year.

If something's going to happen, it would be good to block out some dates soon. Has anyone given this any thought?

New to Symphony and stuck!

Hi all,

I've been asked to help with a website for a UK charity that has run out of money to complete the job. Whilst most of the site is complete some important sections have not yet been created. I've been unable to find a Symphony developer who'll work for peanuts so am now trying to complete the work with the help of a friend.

The other chap is pretty good with PHP so we're trying to do as much as possible in Symphony and do the more complicated parts in PHP.

First steps were to try and call PHP from within XSL. We've tried Andrew Shooner's extension, starting with his 'Hello World' example. The extension was uploaded and enable, associated page and XSL created but we only get errors...

eg ;

XSLTProcessor::importStylesheet():
    compilation error: file efm://functions line 7 element param
    element param only allowed within a template, variable or param
    compilation error: file efm://functions line 8 element copy-of
    element copy-of only allowed within a template, variable or param
    compilation error: file efm://functions line 10 element param
    element param only allowed within a template, variable or param
    compilation error: file efm://functions line 11 element copy-of
    element copy-of only allowed within a template, variable or param
    compilation error: file efm://functions line 7 element function
    Failed to register function {http://example.com}hello
    compilation error: file efm://functions line 10 element function
    Failed to register function {http://example.com}hellonode
XSLTProcessor::transformToXml():
    No stylesheet associated to this object

Next came the example from Carson Sasser http://tech.carsonsasser.com/article/how-to-register-and-use-custom-php-functions-inside-xsl

Unfortunately, his example also fails to run on our system with the following error (when I only include the unix time function)

XSLTProcessor::transformToXml():
    Not allowed to call handler 'time()'

We are now running out of time so unless we can find a way to persuade Symphony to run custom PHP we'll have to re-do the site using another platform or even hand code it.

I'd imagine that the examples should work without any other changes to Symphony or have I got that wrong? Could our platform perhaps be causing our problems?

Sorry for the essay!

Thanks in advance,

Carl

How to format this date?

Thu, 16 May 2013 21:09:00 +1000

By Tintin81

Hello,

I have a datasource that gives me this:

 <booking>
     <item handle="2013-06-13-19-30-00">2013-06-13 19:30:00</item>
 </booking>

Is there a way to convert this into something like this?

13.06.2013, 19:30:00

The standard datetime utility which I've be using so far won't work here.

Thanks for any help.

Discussion Forum Links don't reflect the getsymphony.com url

Thu, 16 May 2013 02:02:00 +1000

By wjnielsen

From what I can tell, http://getsymphony.com is no longer resolving and http://getsymphony.com is being used.

All the links which cross-reference other discussion posts on the site have not been updated to the getsymphony.com url and don't function.

Would it be possible to do a REPLACE on the database and update these links for us blokes who use the discussion forum a lot?

Thanks my friends.

Symphony error caused by deleted field.

Wed, 15 May 2013 23:34:00 +1000

By acreek

Hey All,

I had a field that had an id of 50. I deleted the field from the section and now when I try and save something from that section I get this error.

Symphony Fatal Error: Error creating field object with id 50, for filtering in data source "". Check this field exists.

I've been messing with symphony for the last couple of days to try and fix the error but to no avail. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Simple Forms Question: How to save Checkbox values in Event for Contact Form

Wed, 15 May 2013 08:11:00 +1000

By lbradford

I have a form with a few checkboxes and am having trouble getting these values to save, while the rest of the text input fields work fine.

Here's the truncated version of the form code:

<form action="" method="post">

<label>Individual</label>
<input type="checkbox" name="fields[individual]" value="{events/save-volunteer-form/post-values/individual}"/>

<input id="submit" type="submit" name="action[save-volunteer-form]" value="Send" class="box button" /></form>

Is there something particular I need to add when saving input from checkboxes?

Symphony causes subdomain redirect loops

Tue, 14 May 2013 18:17:00 +1000

By Ecko

I have a Symphony install on my root directory. I created a subdomain in cPanel to store static files, ex; images.example.com

When I try to access the subdomain (that contains static files), I get a infinite redirect loop error Error 310 (net::ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS): There were too many redirects..

http://img.example.com/img/index.php/?symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/index.php/&symphony-page=img/img/403.shtml/

All I want is to be able access any arbitrary subdomain without interference from Symphony.

How do I solve this? My .htaccess skills are lacking.

CRM/ERP

By Manaus

Hello,
a client of mine, for whom I am developing a website on Symphony, asked today if it would be possible to develop on the website a dealer-only area, where to write down orders for products, and so on. Every dealer has his personal customers, and there's of course a superadmin supervising all what is going on. Do you have suggestions or extensions I should look up?

Thanks

Thanks!

XML Importer: Images

Mon, 13 May 2013 21:20:00 +1000

By Nils

I'd like to import images using XML Importer. The files are uploaded manually, so I just need the importer to create the connections between my entries and the physical files.

My problems are quite basic:

Which data needs to be passed to the upload field so the import works (the path – relative or absolute – doesn't seem to work)?
Is it possible to make the importer skip non-existant files?

This extension is a beast (I know) and a lot of information around is seems to be outdated (yeah) and the forum search really isn't a help (well). Anyhow, anyone around with an idea or a pointer into the right direction?

I'm using Symphony 2.3.3beta2 and XML Importer 2.0 (integration branch).

How to get the sum of a number of values?

Mon, 13 May 2013 02:16:00 +1000

By Tintin81

Hello,

I am currently building a reporting tool for an event booking website:

If I have a number of entries with different values, is there a way to get the sum of those values using XSLT?
If some entries share the same value (e.g. in the How did you hear about us? field), how can I generate a count for those values so I get something like this:
- Google: 7
- Yahoo: 3
- Bing: 1

If anybody could help me out here or point me in the right direction, that would be very much appreciated!

Symphony Extension Missing Error

Sun, 12 May 2013 05:54:00 +1000

By colinbrogan

So, I have a local and production deployment of the same symphony ensemble. The local site was developed first and has no errors. I copied that db onto production. On the backend I kept getting extension errors and couldn't reach anything. I cleared the symextensions and symextensions_delegates table, and I can make it to most places on the backend, except for sections that use the disabled plugins and the extensions page itself, which gives me the following error:

Symphony Extension Missing Error

Could not find extension apipage at location /home/colbro13/CBrogan/extensions/apipage/extension.driver.php.

You can try uninstalling the extension to continue, or you might want to ask on the forums

Is there some other simple way of resetting the extensions and re-installing them?

Trouble with dynamic datasource chained with multiple output parameters

Sat, 11 May 2013 21:08:00 +1000

By vincentd

Hi,

I have two datasources attached to a page, first one standard that output a parameter, second one dynamic called with the parameter. It works well when the parameter is only one value, but it doesn't work when i have multiple values.

Do I have to create a custom dynamic datasource to multiply the results for each parameter? Any idea where i can find examples for that kind of datasource?

Switching/converting fields of existing section

Sat, 11 May 2013 11:06:00 +1000

By Pat

Is there anyway to convert a field in a section to different field?

Specifically, I'm looking to change a Section Box Link to Reference Link. But a general process for doing so would be helpful (e.g. changing a Text Input into Text Box)

Have any of you encountered this, and do you have any suggestions for fixing it?

Thanks,

EDIT: nevermind, I figured it out!

Hello,

I installed importcvs on this way.

The last one I did because I need it by version 2.2.5. I enabled the plugin but when I choose the plugin in the system menu I see a 500 error message.

Can anyone help me figure out what went wrong here ?
