Re: Feedback to: Textpattern CMS 4.2.0 Release Candidate: Help us test!

Upgraded TXP Tips and all looks good…thanks to the TXP Devs! Quick question – is it necessary to change/adjust the Time Zone preference? Its blank by default. I think I missed any discussion on this when it went into SVN.

Simply set the timezone to the proper value. Any city in your timezone will fit.

Depending on your trust in us you might even allow your site to adjust DST (CEST/CET) automagically. Come October 25th…

Re: Feedback to: Textpattern CMS 4.2.0 Release Candidate: Help us test!

all looks great so far, thanx!

like REMORA a lot, i had been using an svn-version before to get an impression.
i usually make minor adjustments to the admin-interface to customize it according to a clients CI/typography, i therefore add the following at the end of /textpattern/theme/remora/textpattern.css, maybe somebody else will find this useful:

/* ***** custom styles ***** */
#article-tabs ul 
{ display: none; } /* switches off HTML-PREVIEW tab */
body, input, textarea, select, h1, h2, h3, h3.plain 
{ font-family: "Lucida Grande", Tahoma, Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; } /* changes ALL fonts */
code, .code
{ font: 1em Monaco, "Andale Mono", "Courier New", monospace; } /* smaller code font face for better editing */
input.cancel, input.delete, input.interbox, input.interbox2, input.navbox, input.preview, input.smallbox, input.smallerbox, input.smallerboxsp, select, input.edit, input.list, textarea
{ border: 1px solid #DDD; } /* plain or custom form border */
#masthead
{ background: #FFCC33 url(dropshadow.gif) repeat-x left top; } /* can be used for custom images, logo, color on masthead */
#messagepane 
{ background: white url(dropshadow.gif) repeat-x left -60px; }
#nav 
{ background: transparent url(../classic/textpattern.gif) no-repeat -60px center; }

Re: Feedback to: Textpattern CMS 4.2.0 Release Candidate: Help us test!

Hi Robert

When I try to create a same login user name than an existant one (i.e. “admin”) I’ve got this mysql warning message on the top of the page:

Warning: Duplicate entry 'admin' for key 2 insert into txp_users set privs = 2, name = 'admin', email = 'email.addressgmail.com’, RealName = ‘Tester’, nonce = ‘c5052946d22f4387d85a6ca1d534db2a’, pass = password(lower(‘m5q9xb’)) in /home/users4/c/main-domain/www/domain/textpattern/lib/txplib_db.php on line 85@

Not a “real” problem for me but seems not very professional for migrated WP 2.9 users :)).

Is it difficult to add a kind of warning into the $message?

Here is a screen play

In your very beautiful remora theme you play with jQuery. Why don’t you create this kind of animation. WP users will be surprised!

Cheers

In general, multi-site capabilities are currently built for people who know their way around their server’s O/S. We’ll address the remaining fraction of the population in a future release.

Possibly I don’t qualify :) Just trying out a multi-site setup on my Dreamhost shared hosting account, where to be honest I don’t know if the “Specify your web directory” setting is identical to adding a virtual host. Test site seems to work, but I get numerous diagnostics errors about missing files etc. Normal, or have I set it up incorrectly?

Edit: Arghh, I definitely don’t qualify. I tried my Dreamhost account first, figuring it’d be easy to get multi-site working locally. But no luck yet on the local install either …

It is a select. In 4.2.0’s early development stages, it was a text input. Maybe your testing site has received an update back then, so the current update will have no incentive to update the setting once again. Try a fresh install.

OK, gotcha, thank you Robert, I’ll try a fresh install. IIRC, the previous version of TXP I was running wasn’t a beta or RC. It was just a plain 4.0.8. No complaining or anything, just reporting back. :)

It is used when an author is deleted:

Thanks!

Another tiny report: I see logs are recording hits on feed URLs, such as /rss. It this by design?

Re: Feedback to: Textpattern CMS 4.2.0 Release Candidate: Help us test!

Updated Design Opus and everything seems awesome. Only one hiccup: I activated rvm_maintenance before the update, but adding the files seemed to break site access to plugins, so rvm_maintenance didn’t function until I the update script ran. No big deal— it was less than a minute. ;)

Is there an official thread for comments and questions about remora?

Installed it in one of my sites and all works beautifully.

Re: Feedback to: Textpattern CMS 4.2.0 Release Candidate: Help us test!

Upgraded a few sites and so far all seems to be going perfectly for me except for glz_custom_fields no longer working which I see from your earlier post above is already known. For what it’s worth I’ve noticed that if the glz_custom fields plugin is active the #messagepane status messages (e.g. “Article Posted” etc) don’t seem to appear.

Installed and everything looks fine, apart from the “sed_section_fields” plugin that no longer works (section page outputs nothing).

Another report: when deleting a user, TXP returns “Please re-assign user’s content”. Problem is that that user doesn’t have any article associated to him. Could you reproduce such error?
