Re: Feedback to: Textpattern CMS 4.7.0 beta released
Hmmm, ‘Add new author’ or ‘Create new author’ – I’m still not sure.
Regarding ‘Users’ as opposed to ‘Authors’ – most of the admin texts refer to users as authors currently (and in past releases).

There’s a lot of pushback on the term “user” in UX these days. Author is good in my book.
And the mug agrees. ☕️
<txp:author />
The baseline. On top of that you can also be publisher, editor, freelancer, even the designer. ;)

Probably an overzealous checksums generating script.
Yep, mea culpa. I’ll get the script to omit that one, thanks.

You need “create” because that’s the action to take, the verb. But you don’t need “new,” the needless adjective, because its redundant to the fact one is creating something
I think I like this. Shorter, leaner and retains the context. Can we? Can we? Please?

I’m also not too keen on peppering the buttons with icons too
No worries. You’re right that could look a bit iconfusing™. The Files panel’s header area is already a bit, well, all over the shop on mobile, with the various form controls for image upload, category assignment, assign missing file dropdown, search box, clear search link, and list options all wrapping. Could probably do with some love one day but I’ve no idea how to present it better right now…

While I can change the English Textpacks no problem – I am not prepared to delete all the translations of these phrases that are already translated into other languages.
So yes, in part, we can do this. It’s kind of all or nothing on Crowdin: You either keep current translations or you blow them away and force translators to re-translate those strings again. Of course current translators can edit their translations if they wish.

Files and images panels will be getting a UX makeover in Textpattern 4.8 (along with adding that pesky image grid we’ve always talked about).

If it’s too much ruckus, it’s fine to leave it. We could always just change the English for now and the rest can follow over time if necessary. It’s an English thing anyway, so may not even affect other languages.
Is there no way for translators to be notified in CrowdIn that a string has changed and may need a tweak, or they can decide the translation is fine as-is so it can be marked as “seen it, no action required”? You have to either let them figure it out or force the issue by deleting it?

A short blog post with relevant details and link (Crowdin?), a tweet and forum post to point to it. Let the rest follow.

Not detrimentally, perhaps, but the refined grammar should help translations be more concise too.

Yiannis, I think that is some code of yours that is complaining. If you correct the entities you get:
<txp:php>
if ($_POST['submit']) {
$url = $_POST['site'].$_POST['terms'];
if ($_POST['section'] && ($_POST['section'] != 'null')) $url = $url.'&s='.$_POST['section'];
header('Location: '.$url);
} else {
header('content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8');
}
</txp:php>which gives you
Notice: Undefined index: submit while parsing form 'None' on page 'default'That snippets waits for some incoming form input that is posted from another page. If you’re calling the page on its own (where it’s not receiving input from somewhere else), it doesn’t know about the submit event and says it’s not defined.
Change your first line to: if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { and that should silence the error. Pls double-check that your form processing still works as desired.

Thanks so much Julian, I’ll be checking it tomorrow as we are flat out now with guests. The script is here and your solution seems very easy!!!

Re: Feedback to: Textpattern CMS 4.7.0 beta released
Oh man. Totally excited to mess with Textpattern again after some time away. The new features look awesome.
I’m just leaving a message here to say that i’ve just installed the beta on Laravals Valet running on High Sierra with PHP 7. This is basically nginx under the hood with some fancy pants dnsmasq stuff on top. look ma, no server :)
I was expecting some bumps but it went totally without a hitch.
Good job chaps :)
