Nov 25, 2009 issue 161 (Improve install process for SQlite) commented on by martijn.niji - Sorry... I've GOT to respond to this one. (NOTE: I am no longer involved with this project since I left for Wolf CMS) It is a VERY bad idea to place your SQLite database in Frog's folder. That would expose your complete database to your site visitors. Not good. Always place your SQLite database OUTside your webserver's document root. Your home directory is okay as long as you set proper permissions but www or public_html is definitely not okay. Sorry... I've GOT to respond to this one.

I usually loop all children of the homepage and check if they have 'in-main-menu' or 'in-top-menu' part and either output link or continue to next step. The same technique is used for creating sitemaps. If you need to hide some pages from sitemap, you will add 'no-index' part to it. My suggestion is to add possibility to set 'has_content' in args. This is very simple to implement by adding INNER JOIN page_part to the query. 'has_no_content' and 'has_or_inherits_content' also would be helpful, but I have no idea on this can be implemented except filtering mysql results by PHP (which is currently done outside Page::children() method by people like me=)) My websites usually have multiple menus and I need to have a simple mechanism to define if page goes to one menu or to another.

On what operating system? doesn't matter. Please provide any additional information below. I need to filter pages by presence of 'in-list' part. Also I need to apply special formatting to the first one. Currently I use: <?php $i = 0; do { $page = $this->children(array('limit' => 1, 'offset' => $i)); $i++; } while ($page and !$page->hasContent('in-list')); ?> <?php if ($page):?> <li><?php echo $page->link();?></li> <?php foreach ($this->children(array('offset' => $i, 'limit' => 999999)) as $page):?> <?php if (!$page->hasContent('in-list')) continue; ?> <li><?php echo $page->link();?></li> <?php endforeach;?> <?php endif;?> (I've cut some code) As you see, I put 999999 which is hacky thing. I need it because you apply LIMIT to sql select only if limit is set in args and is larger then 0 disregarding offset. MySQL guide says: "To retrieve all rows from a certain offset up to the end of the result set, you can use some large number for the second parameter. This statement retrieves all rows from the 96th row to the last: SELECT * FROM tbl LIMIT 95,18446744073709551615;" I think this large number shall be appended by the method, not by call.

Thanks, Alex Sep 15, 2009 issue 195 (The ability to set a Flash message to display for the curren...) reported by jedimike - There is currently no way to set a Flash message to appear on the same request it was set in. There are cases where this is desirable. For example, currently when handling invalid add/edit operations with forms the following idiom is followed in Frog: 1. Form is presented to user. 2. User fills in form incorrectly and submits it. 3.1 Errors are detected, 3.2 a Flash message is set, 3.3 the POST data is also set in a flash message, and 3.4 it redirects back to the same form. However, with the ability to add a Flash message that display in the current request, it enables this flow: 1. Form is presented to user. 2. User fills in form incorrectly and submits it. 3.1 Errors are detected, 3.2 a Flash message is set, and 3.3 the edit form is displayed again. Besides saving a step and keeping form data out of the session store, it also makes for DRYer code because you can submit adds and edits to the same 'save' function without checking a bunch of conditions. See attached patch for a naive implementation. There is currently no way to set a Flash message to appear on the same request it was set in. There are cases where this is desirable.

Turns out I had an undefined variable which broke the layout. It is terrible of me not to have thoroughly tested that all this time. Anyways, ensuring that there are no syntax or coding errors should prevent this from happening. I'd recommend deleting this issue, unless others have had an issue of course.

Jul 15, 2009 issue 190 (More observers required) reported by only.the.em - While creating plug-ins the observer mechanism is helpful to add more functionality to the Frog system. But Frog lacks of support for more observers at several areas: - for example there is no observer to add code to the '<head/>' of the administration backend. Sometimes global variables (e.g. environment information from the Frog backend like e.g. language) can not easily added. Each plug-in will come up with an own 'hack' (e.g. WYMeditor or the Assets plug-in) --> request for a 'page-head-observer' - when creating a 'content backup' plug-in, the observers are sufficient for 'pages', but lack for other core contents like layout and snippets. While extending the user interface (e.g. add a content history tab) it's possible for page, but not for e.g. 'layouts'.

Each plug-in will come up with an own 'hack' (e.g. WYMeditor or the Assets plug-in) --> request for a 'page-head-observer' - when creating a 'content backup' plug-in, the observers are sufficient for 'pages', but lack for other core contents like layout and snippets. While extending the user interface (e.g. add a content history tab) it's possible for page, but not for e.g. 'layouts'. All main controllers with their view should have observers to 'hook-in' e.g. a tab interface or simple links. --> request for observers for every core admin sites Jul 15, 2009 issue 189 (Html, base tag confuses third party plugins) reported by only.the.em - Currently Frog uses the '<base href="xxx" />' tag to reference files for a webpage (e.g. javascript, css). Third party plug-ins (such as WYMeditor) are using javascript to detect the location of their script file. They simply scan the DOM tree and match the file 'file.js'. Because the plug-in is not aware of the '<base/>' tag, generated relative URLs will be invalid. This is _not_ a defect from Frog directly, however the '<base/>' tag is not commonly used and causes third party libraries to break. A 'simpler', much straight forward solution would be to drop the '<base/>' tag and to reference the files absolute.

Jul 15, 2009 issue 188 (Add plugin javascript files not only for physically existing...) reported by only.the.em - Sometimes the javascript frontend needs information about the backend (e.g. language settings, etc). Currently the function 'Plugin::addJavascript' only allows physically existing plug-ins to be referenced. But for dynamic generation a .php file can be specified once it's existing. But simple PHP files do not have access to the Frog backend. Adding the complete Frog backend for a php file is not feasible. Of course one can use the $_SESSION array to transfer data from the backend to this newly created php file, but it would be simpler and cleaner to reference a function of a controller. E.g. Plugin::addJavascript($plugin_id, get_url('plugin/'.$plugin_id.'/environment')); While 'environment' is a function from the controller. The only purpose is to generate javascript code 'on the fly' for the frontend with backend data. Sometimes the javascript frontend needs information about the backend (e.g. language settings, etc).

Jul 08, 2009 issue 121 (Add <title> tag field to Metadata section) commented on by bl.horizons - I really would object to the idea of linking a breadcrumb value to any other value, not just the title value. Regarding the title tag not being an SEO title, I think the current limitations are clear enough at this point without need of further SEO/title discussion. Instead, we should accept that as long as Frog uses the admin page identifier not only for page identification, but also for the title tag, page headings and breadcrumbs, there are clearly valid cases where this is not always going to be ideal. I personally can see admin page identifiers linked to breadcrumbs, but sometimes a page title might need to say a little more than a breadcrumb ... then again, the page heading could also want to say more than a breadcrumb. It might be good to open a poll on this issue and let the community have some input. I really would object to the idea of linking a breadcrumb value to any other value, not just the title value.

Create a breadcrumb using: $this->breadcrumbs(). 2. Now to add a custom divider, we place it inside the brackets like so: $this->breadcrumbs(' . ') 3. Now we want to prepend the text "you are here:" to the breadcrumb, so we add that text before declaring the breadcrumbs function. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? One would expect the prepended text to flow into an inline breadcrumb, but the breadcrumb function actually introduces a block level element (div wrapper), thus there is no valid way to introduce a preluding text. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? All versions of Frog. Please provide any additional information below.
