01:47 solshark Hello all. I have very difficult for me task. I need create site with special feature: create simple sites in "hands-off" mode. User just select in FE on the simple form template, input login and password and get site in my typo3 installation. It's possible? I want automatic creation site documents, folders for tt_news and tt_products and grant needed permission for user.
06:51 doood hello how do i get over to drupal support i typed /join #drupal-support
07:21 Doloana Hello, I've made a new clean installation of typo3 and I'm getting the error "Cannot find configuration. This file is probably executed from the wrong location." I think is something with the tslib path and about the localconf.php path. Does anybody have any idea about what to do?
07:38 Doloana No awnsers?

08:38 PaulLS_ Good morning.. could anyone point me in the proper direction to enable me to delete pages and their subpages in one step. Right now, when I attempt to delete a page with subpages, I get an error and have to delete them all individually.
09:46 maniacxs_ Hi, i am trying to create a new menu with typoscript. I want to use flexform_getfield to get the TV fields for the pages shown currently in the menu. But how do i put the flexform_getfield together with the menu, so it gets visible? http://phpfi.com/222048
09:47 maniacxs_ is this possible what i am trying to do?
12:19 brain-xy anybody alive? :)

14:34 ceed Denyerec: bugger, eh?
14:34 ceed Denyerec: still confuses me that it works as expected (list mode) in the Live Workspace
14:48 ceed show ;)
14:48 Ries ceed: when it's ready :)
14:48 Ries I am still coding...
14:48 Ries it works a bit different from newlogin box and simular boxes
14:48 Ries When it works I would like you to test it.
14:54 brain-xy hey.. somebody is alive :D
14:57 ceed sure ries
15:15 brain-xy has anybody an idea how i could do this? http://phpfi.com/222147
15:17 uschi do what?
15:17 brain-xy i want to give each record an wrap.. and in this wrap i need the headline of each record wrapped in the second row of that table
15:19 uschi morning pulponair :)
15:20 uschi somehow i still do not understand
15:20 pulponair uschi: i got up early today ...by way of an exception ;)
15:21 uschi right, the day is nearly gone, i just realise this
15:21 uschi shit, i do not get anything done these days
15:22 pulponair so you are the nasty "stay up all night"-guy this time ;)
15:23 brain-xy uschi.. you're not alone ^^
15:24 pulponair brain-xy aka "the song lyrics quoter" ;)
15:25 uschi as it is now, you will get a lot of crap markup, brain-xy
15:25 uschi yes
15:25 uschi this is because you made 10.value
15:27 brain-xy :P
15:28 brain-xy what? .. how?
15:28 brain-xy well.. now i get nothing but the normal content wrap in the table
15:28 pulponair uschi: how would you translate "leistungen" ? i mean those kind of "leistungen" which are usally accouted to bids and bils?
15:28 pulponair services?
15:28 pulponair activities?
15:31 brain-xy pulponair services
15:32 pulponair brain-xy: yes ...probably
16:07 max_muetze hello, i need some help with tw_rssfeeds again.. is anybody using this?
16:11 max_muetze noone?
16:15 Denyerec I think I might have
16:15 Denyerec is that the extension that pulls remote feeds onto your site?
16:18 max_muetze yes, i solved the problem :) i mean this: http://www.typo3.christianeiselt.de - right frame
16:21 max_muetze but i think you can help with the next step: i need to place this direct in the template
16:22 Denyerec The rightframe is images
16:22 Denyerec Pulled from RSS ?
16:22 max_muetze yes, right
16:23 max_muetze it take some time to set the right switches for displaying the images
16:23 max_muetze first there was only the title..
16:24 max_muetze i like to have it on every single page so i have to place this plugin into the template, right?
16:26 brain-xy max_muetze .. either set it by typoscript in a subpart or marker or copy it from your root page to all others..
16:27 max_muetze i would like to do this with typoscript but i am not very familar with ts yet.. can you provide a newbie tutorial or sth like this for this?
16:28 max_muetze no, stop.. i will do it by copying.. so i have the possibility to hide it on several pages...
16:28 max_muetze thanks for the explanation
16:45 brain-xy anybody has a checklist for tt_news? :P
16:51 zatmania to make it works ?
16:52 Ries brain-xy: the documentatino may be?
16:53 brain-xy i did everything right.. IMO.. :P
17:10 Stasik hi
17:10 Stasik have a problem with clear: both and css
17:11 Stasik firefox does not display the first div properly
17:12 Stasik http://stasik.mine.nu:1985/typo3/index.php?id=39
17:12 Stasik all the new items are equal
17:13 Stasik just the first div has this big gap
17:16 Stasik somebidy around?
17:26 Ries ceed: finally complete login process works... No the registration part (which is a bit easer)
17:35 neonide hello fellow ts geeks
17:37 Denyerec ries I have to ask
17:37 Denyerec why write another login form?
17:38 Ries Denyerec: Hmmmm good question....
17:38 Ries Denyerec: see PM...
17:39 Ries Denyerec: Main reason is that the workflow I need is to different from what loginbox or fe_userregistration can give me
17:39 Ries also I need email addresses as usernames, and not usernames
17:40 Ries Denyerec: Mine is also much more web2 isch
17:58 ipseos does anyone here have any experience with installing graphicsmagick into Windows enviroment?
18:00 zatmania no sorry
18:01 Ries ipseos: if there is an installer for windows, just install it
18:01 Ries and point typo3's to it's directly...
18:01 Ries make sure that permissions are set correcty... quite a lot of windows users are struggeling with permissions latly
18:01 zatmania or install an ll in one pack with apache, mysql, Im ....
18:02 Ries zatmania: that's one if teh LAME pachakes, isn't it? :)
18:02 ipseos i managed to install graphicsmagick into win 2003, along with ghostscript etc.. but i am having some issues in getting typo3 to pick it up
18:03 zatmania Ries, i prefer develop on my freebsd server or on a linux server :D
18:03 ipseos i'll see what i can find out about the permissions
18:05 PaulLS_ is there a way to directly link to an external link (versus a redirect)?
18:05 PaulLS_ i.e. a link in the menu that points to an external page not kept by typo3
18:06 PaulLS_ right now, I added a page which is an "External link" however that just redirects id=pageid to the actual url. I'd like to skip that step if possible.
18:17 Ries ipseos: Just set the correct path and it should work
18:19 ipseos my current path is C:\Program Files\GraphicsMagick-1.1.7-Q16\ but when i enter this into the search for it box, it says it checked but nothing found
18:19 ipseos within that directory you can find the gm.exe
18:19 ipseos i am thinking i may just go to imagemagick instead, since i had issues getting gm installed on a unix server too but had more success with im
18:20 zatmania do you use apache ?
18:21 ipseos no, microsoft IIS6
18:22 Ries zatmania: I have a laptop with BSD thingy here aswell..
18:22 zatmania fbsd roxx
18:22 zatmania i have on my laptop too and too my dev personnal server
18:22 max_muetze doloana?
18:23 zatmania ipseos, are u sure that your IIS have right to go to your gm folder ?
18:23 Ries zatmania: osx here...
18:23 zatmania i don't know osx but the core is base on a bsd one :)
18:24 ipseos yes, i gave the IUSR_machinename list, read and execute permissions
18:25 zatmania hum so i can't help you
18:25 zatmania have u got some log to help you ?
18:25 Ries ipseos: can you shell in and do something like sudo on a windows machine to test??
18:26 ipseos php safe_mode is off, everything else seems to be functioning correctly, directories are writable, GD lib and freetype is working etc.. this graphics magick seems to be my last niggle before i am done installing
18:26 ipseos i have remote desktop access to the win 2003 server
18:26 zatmania have you some errors messages ?
18:27 ipseos theres no particular error messsage apart from "imagemagick cannot be found" in the typo3 installer
18:27 ipseos i set the "gm" in configuration for im_version5: gm etc
18:28 zatmania yes doesen't matter the first thing is that typo must find gm
18:29 ipseos i see
18:29 ipseos when it must find gm, by that i assume you mean the gm.exe file?
18:29 zatmania i think so
18:30 Ries ipseos: if you cut/paste teh command that typo3 tries to execute, does that work?
18:30 ipseos Ries: sorry i dont understand
18:30 ipseos how do i find out that command?
18:31 zatmania in install tools
18:31 Ries ipseos: typo3's shows in the install tool the commands he tries to execute
18:31 zatmania http://typo3winstaller.sourceforge.net/ have you look here how gm is config ?
18:32 ipseos Check Image Magick:
18:32 ipseos No ImageMagick installation available
18:32 ipseos It seems that there is no adequate ImageMagick installation available at the checked locations (C:\Program Files\GraphicsMagick-1.1.7-Q16\, c:\apache\ImageMagick\, c:\php\imagemagick\)
18:32 ipseos An 'adequate' installation for requires 'convert', 'combine'/'composite' and 'identify' to be available
18:33 zatmania have you the php module for imagemagick ?
18:33 ipseos i am thinking it may be something to do with permissions of some sort, but i cant figure out what
18:33 ipseos zatmania: i am not sure
18:34 ipseos going to check
18:34 zatmania try a php file with phpinfo in
18:34 zatmania or go to install tools
18:34 zatmania and then phpinfo
18:34 Ries ipseos: d you use something like basemode or other stuff?
18:35 ipseos Ries: no idea what basemode is
18:37 Ries ipseos: That is some setting in php.ini...
18:41 zatmania ipseos, your php.ini is the default one ?

18:44 PaulLS_ Ries: does ltg_phpadsnew support openads/Typo3 4?
18:46 smg ipseos: stfu
18:46 smg use nopaste
18:46 ipseos whats no paste
18:46 zatmania ip all module with ";" before are not loaded
18:47 zatmania hashbin.com
18:47 zatmania for example
18:47 zatmania paste what you want to show here
18:47 zatmania on the site
18:47 ipseos is it necessary to load them all though? wont it eat up memory resources? i enabled the gd iconv etc
18:48 ndee_ what speaks again generating static pages and everytime you change something, that page gets updated
18:48 ndee_ s/again/against
18:50 ipseos thanks for the hashbin link, i am new to irc so i didnt know about pasting some codes
18:54 zatmania no prb
19:24 Denyerec Ries can you sum up in a short sentence what your login proviudes that the others do not ?
19:31 Ries Denyerec: Hmm it contains registration including login box... it has a different workflow. I think it's less problamatic to customize
19:32 Denyerec ahh right so FE users can reg from the same form ?
19:33 socken23 hi all! which file do I have to change in tt_news to change [more] to something else!?
19:33 Ries Denyerec: yes..
19:34 Ries Denyerec: Customizing loginbox and fe_user registration take up so much time that i feel it's better to make a routine myzelf
19:34 Denyerec Ohh good.
19:34 voidus socken23: no file, just add some TS
19:34 Denyerec Will it be available when complete ?
19:34 Ries Denyerec: You will get it, it's part of the gallery I am making
19:34 Ries Denyerec: also I can register with mail addresses instead of usernames
19:34 socken23 voidus: ok.. do you also know what TS by any chance?
19:35 socken23 voidus: otherwise I'll check the documentation out...
19:35 voidus socken23: plugin.tt_news._LOCAL_LANG.<your lang here>.more = <what you need>
19:35 socken23 voidus: PERFECT!
19:35 socken23 thanks alot
19:36 voidus socken23: no pb
19:36 Denyerec Cool
19:36 Denyerec the extension is standalone from the gallery, though ?
19:37 socken23 ok, see you all
19:37 Ries Denyerec: something for you??? http://www.guru.com/pro/notifications_det.cfm?PID=7531375453626c58&PID2=766c4c53544c6c58&page=1
19:37 Ries Denyerec: No, it's not stand alone from teh gallery
19:38 Denyerec :(
19:38 Denyerec Shame...
19:38 Denyerec as I need such a thing
19:38 Ries Denyerec: it will contain modules like login, gallery, press releases, event database, registration in one extension
19:38 Ries and a couple of modules more comming
19:39 Denyerec How much work would it be to break the login out into its own extension ?
19:39 Ries Denyerec: I know it's a shame... the module login/registration doesn't depend on anything but itself... so it could be extracted
19:39 Denyerec because these things are useful on their own
19:39 Denyerec so it would be awesome to have the gallery be a combination of modules, rather than one giant one
19:39 Denyerec improve re-use for you too further down the line
19:39 Ries It only uses dojo for form validations and some other stuff...
19:39 Ries but I tried to make it work when JS is not available
19:40 Ries Denyerec: I agree it might improve re-use, however for me it will greatly extend development time
19:42 Denyerec Hmm, true.
19:42 Ries Oo... and it uses email address for validation, not the username
19:42 Ries I 'might' release the whole extension as GPL...
19:44 uschi_ hi folks
19:45 Ries Hey uschi
19:49 uschi hm, just reading what the two of you (Ries, Denyerec) have been talking about
19:49 voidus hi uschi
19:49 uschi hi voidus :)
19:50 Ries Denyerec: don't forget, I also don't support a lot of features yet...
19:50 Denyerec :)
19:50 Ries Denyerec: I can just register a user and let him login... I don't do profiles yes like birtdates etc...
20:02 Ries this is weird
20:02 Ries I remove the MP3 if my CD player...
20:02 Ries and it keeps on playing for 30 seconds more!!
20:18 uschi hey bedlamhotel :)
20:18 uschi finally he turneth up again
20:19 bedlamhotel As a dog returneth to his vomit, so a fool returneth again to his folly.
20:19 bedlamhotel hello.
20:19 bedlamhotel :)
20:19 uschi :)
20:19 Denyerec lo bedlamhotel
20:20 bedlamhotel It's medieval greeting day!
20:20 bedlamhotel Hello Dnyrc.
20:28 Denyerec You ate my vowels.
20:30 bedlamhotel No, I was just saving them for later.
20:31 bedlamhotel 'e' is the most used letter you know...you can't justkeep them all for yourself...
20:33 Denyerec :(
20:33 Denyerec I'm monitor shopping.
20:33 Denyerec It's a headache inducing experience.
20:36 PaulLS_ Ries: does ltg_phpadsnew support openads/Typo3 4? I've installed it despite the version discrepency and it hasn't had me configure the location of phpadsnew
20:39 Ries PaulLS_: I never tried it with openads...
20:40 Ries Denyerec: http://www.lacie.com/products/product.htm?pid=10799
20:40 PaulLS_ Ries: where does the location configuration happen?
20:40 Ries PaulLS_: From the top of my head in the install tool you can configure where the location if the file he needs to include
20:41 Denyerec the 321 is only 1600x1200 and is not so good on moving pictures :(
20:41 Denyerec I'm looking currently at the Eizo S2411W
20:41 PaulLS_ hmm.. it never prompted.
20:41 Denyerec But I just keep wondering if that is big enough.
20:46 Ries PaulLS_: just to be sure... can you see it in teh setuP?
20:47 PaulLS_ Ries: Where should I look for it? I don't see anything other than the ext in the ext manager
20:49 Denyerec I'm going to need someone's assistance for 5 minutes on a conceptual issue, not a synatx/implementation level.
20:49 Denyerec Anyone bored enough to give me 5 minutes?
20:50 bedlamhotel Denyerec: 5 mintues...go!
20:50 Denyerec Heheh start the clock
20:50 Denyerec I'm starting to thin kabout inmplementing my business site in Typo
20:50 Denyerec and I've come to figuring out how to handle the portfolio
20:50 Denyerec current URL here:
20:51 Denyerec http://www.sozu.co.uk/index.php?id=15
20:51 Denyerec As you can see clicking on a thumbnail adds a getVar to the URL.
20:51 Denyerec This dictates which image to pull from the DB and display in the main frame.
20:51 bedlamhotel I suppose javascript is out?
20:51 Denyerec I wrote some JS to do this without a pageload locally
20:51 Denyerec Well
20:51 Denyerec I need it to work if JS is disabled
20:51 Denyerec JS can be used
20:52 Denyerec but there needs to be a fallback plan.
20:52 Denyerec and this is where I drew the blank.
20:52 Ries PaulLS_: it's this setting : plugin.tx_ltgphpadsnew_pi1.phpadsnew_path
20:52 bedlamhotel Denyerec: not a T3 site, but here's a crude fallback option: http://raisedeyebrow.com/portfolio/mfc.html (check the images in the sidebar)
20:53 bedlamhotel (i.e. with and without javascript)
20:54 Denyerec Hmm
20:54 Denyerec That is to display all three images then use JS to re-write the page.
20:55 bedlamhotel Correct. Would be very simple to do with a CMS backing.
20:55 Denyerec I've seen it done before , though where I saw it done was generating those tab-boxes
20:55 Denyerec so the content was just 3-4 divs with ID's which was restructured into a tab-box.
20:56 bedlamhotel If I remember right, I put the styles for the thumbnails and mouseovers in the css and just used the js to change the classes on elements.
20:56 bedlamhotel (plus, it's an ordered list :))
20:56 Denyerec Not 100% sold on the approach, mostly because I don't know a damn bit of JS.
20:57 bedlamhotel Denyerec: oh. It took about 2 hours to prove the concept, and about 6 hours to implement, including the CSS. When you say you don't know a bit of javascript: literally true, or hyperbole?
20:58 Denyerec Literally.
20:58 PaulLS_ Ries: Where can I edit/define the setting?
20:58 Denyerec I can usually hack together or implement someone elses JS and change a couple of parameters
20:58 bedlamhotel So this is not the time to learn I guess?>
20:58 Denyerec but coding something from scratch that works in every browser? Hah, no.
20:58 Denyerec Well, I need to learn abou 74839748932749327489327843298432 things.
20:58 Denyerec (Seemingly NOT hyperbole...)
20:58 Ries PaulLS_: it's a regelar typoscript setting
20:59 PaulLS_ so simply define it in the template record?
20:59 Denyerec But I'm resistant to getting myself hogtied over something that has perhaps got a more elegant solution available.
20:59 bedlamhotel Denyerec: for this stuff, it's not too hard. I used only very basic DOM functions, so as to avoid the browser minefield. I probably did not actually do a function check, though that would only add a few lines' extra code.
21:00 Denyerec I just wonder how to implement that little gallery widget section as an FCE
21:00 Denyerec and integrate into it the JS functionality.
21:00 Denyerec Or the Get var functionality
21:01 bedlamhotel Sounds pretty simple in fact. I built something like that as an FCE once.
21:01 bedlamhotel ...though I discarded it in favour of a yet-to-be-written portfolio extension. I wanted more relational information that I could achieve with an FCE
21:01 Denyerec Yes...
21:02 Denyerec I think perhaps an extension is the way to go.
21:02 bedlamhotel As far as the GET approach is concerned, you must be fully up to speed with the ins and outs of that if you've got your text-only bits working...
21:02 Denyerec THat way I can categorise the portfolio entries
21:02 bedlamhotel With an extension you mean?
21:02 Denyerec Yes.
21:03 bedlamhotel Yes. And have multiple projects per clients, etc, etc.
21:03 Denyerec THough there are 101 things that I could think to do with that that inevitably I do not know how to do.
21:04 Denyerec EG create a typolink in the main menu to "Projects in Print"
21:04 Denyerec which would access the portfolio page with a getVar
21:04 Denyerec (by way of example)
21:04 Denyerec Though I suppose you could enter the plugin onto a page called "print" and simply configure the plugin on that page via flexform.
21:05 Denyerec So perhaps it would not be all that bad, providing the extension was sound.
21:05 Denyerec sounds like I need to learn how to write extensions.
21:06 Denyerec I was worried it would come to this.
21:06 Denyerec :)
21:06 bedlamhotel Yes. It seems to me that the part requiring the most thought is just the db structure: if you're going to write the extension anyhow, may as well make sure the db structure is sound.
21:06 Denyerec Aye
21:06 bedlamhotel The kickstarter makes it easy, though you may want to read the (long) thread on the dev list about setting no_cache from extensions (brief summary: don't).
21:07 Denyerec That is: Do not turn off the cache in your plugin ?
21:07 bedlamhotel Yes.
21:08 Denyerec worth following the extension writing tutorial from strat to finish, I presume ?
21:09 bedlamhotel Yes and no. There are some functions in pi_base and elsewhere that didn't exist when the video tutorials were made.
21:10 Ries 20 minutes and counting....
21:10 bedlamhotel (so for getting a list of categories by name from a separate table, for example, there is a function in pi_base that will do the part that Kasper says you will have to figure out on your own.
21:10 Ries bedlamhotel: hehehe yeaa the thread about caching :)
21:10 bedlamhotel Ries: it's ok, I'm billing him by the second at this point.
21:11 Denyerec pi_base is unknown to me.
21:11 Denyerec And I was ona bout this: http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/tutorials/player_profile_basic/0.0.8/view/1/1/#id2694348
21:11 Denyerec Video tutorial ... ?
21:12 bedlamhotel http://typo3.org/video/
21:12 Denyerec I have found the page.
21:12 Denyerec Long list...
21:19 uschi Denyerec, i am still always one step behind you :)
21:20 Denyerec hehehe
21:20 Denyerec You are 10 steps ahead in Localisation.
21:21 uschi bedlamhotel ?
21:22 bedlamhotel Denyerec: missed what you said about pi_base: check the basic output of the kickstarter. It's a (rather kludgy) set of classes for extensions.
21:22 Denyerec ah ok.
21:22 Denyerec I will be awtching the tutorial videos for the next few hours I think
21:23 bedlamhotel classes -> should be 'functions'.
22:11 Ries gerards: !!!
22:11 Ries wake up gerards
22:11 Ries pling pling pling
22:11 brain-xy :)
22:11 Denyerec Just go round there and shake him in person
22:11 Denyerec :)
22:11 Ries yeaa Ineed to take the bus then ;)
22:12 Denyerec do
22:12 Denyerec h
22:12 gerards ries
22:12 gerards Ries: sorry i was having lunch.
22:12 gerards a late late lunch.
22:12 Denyerec I would call that "dinner"
22:12 Denyerec :)
22:12 gerards i prefer late late lunch.
22:13 gerards it means that i can eats someting later.
22:13 brain-xy midnight snack :P
22:13 gerards brain-xy: or early early breakfast.
22:13 brain-xy heheh :) ja
22:35 Ries gerards: I found it already, I needed a function to send html emails
22:35 gerards using typo3?
22:35 gerards i thought you always told me to use htmlmail?
22:36 Denyerec THe extension manager makes things look too easy.
22:36 Denyerec Kickstarter I mean.
22:36 Denyerec There must be a catch :)
22:36 gerards Denyerec: there's no catch.
22:36 gerards ks is not perfect, but its really brilliant.
22:37 Denyerec Flexforms...
22:37 Denyerec ?
22:37 gerards nah KS doesn't do flexforms.
22:37 gerards i thikn.
22:37 Ries gerards: Yeaaa but I had a function for it... I just wanted to copy/paste
22:38 Ries Denyerec: proper caching is a problem with kickstarer
22:38 Denyerec Gah, so there lies the catch.
22:38 gerards Ries: its a kickstarter.
22:39 gerards not a magic wand.
22:40 Ries gerards: well, the default is kinda ugly... it doesn't give a good example....
22:40 Denyerec Ries do you have perhaps a little more to say on the topic ?
22:40 Ries gerards: read the thread about it on typo3-dev
22:40 Denyerec As in, what the problem is ?
22:40 Ries Denyerec: it's encuraged (or whatever how I write that) to use no_cache in forms
22:41 Denyerec You mean on things like email forms and such
22:41 Denyerec I read that somewhere, and have set it on the WLA site
22:43 Ries Denyerec: For you it's properly not a big deal
22:43 Denyerec on a high traffic site it would certainly be.
22:43 Ries Denyerec: The problem starts when you have on a single page a forum with 50.000 posts (cached by typo3)
22:44 Denyerec sp: probably
22:44 Ries and somebody submits a new post,
22:44 Ries then the form set's no_cache=1 and all cached content for 50.000 posts is gone
22:44 Denyerec Erk.
22:44 Ries Now guess what happens when google want's to re-index your site... including the 50.000 posts
22:44 Denyerec Your server crashes.
22:44 Denyerec :)
22:44 Ries The server get's hit badly sinve it needs to create all content again
22:45 Denyerec In this case we are discussing
22:45 Denyerec is the form ON the same page as the 50,000 posts
22:45 Denyerec ?
22:46 Denyerec SO what is wrong with the kickstarter cache handling ?
22:47 Ries Denyerec: well.. kickstarter set no_cache=1, while in fact a user could use a user_int object
22:48 Denyerec I see
22:48 Ries then no_cache on the form is not needed
22:48 Denyerec So you just dive in and disable that
22:48 Ries yup!!!
22:48 Ries easy :D
22:48 Denyerec and insert the item as a USER_INT if that behaviour is needed?
22:48 Denyerec Rather than USER...
22:48 Denyerec I read about that in the Inside Typo3 doc.
22:48 Denyerec :D
22:48 Ries in your case, I would start off with creating extensions that are user_int objects
22:48 Denyerec This reading is slowly paying off.
22:49 Ries You could also use lib/div... although not perfect, I am fairly happy with most part of it
22:50 Denyerec Do you have to alter the code of your extensions significantly to ensure proper caching ?
22:52 bedlamhotel OT: try using google maps to get driving directions for transatlantic trips. For example, try "New York, USA to London, England"...pay particular attention to step 23...
22:53 Ries Denyerec: No, the problem is more really understanding how typo3's caching mechnism works
22:54 uschi Ries, Denyerec it is important to do what bedlamhotel said. That one is really a laugh
23:27 Denyerec LOL
23:27 Denyerec "Swim across the atlantic ocean"
23:27 Denyerec at least they have a sense of humour :)
23:38 Denyerec Ries in the extenion writing tutorial, Kasper gets a list view without writing any code...
23:38 Denyerec Did I miss something or is that some default generated code?
23:44 Ries Denyerec: not really... that's build in ino piBase.. I never used it
23:46 Denyerec Ah OK.
23:47 Denyerec I must have missed th epart where he mentions it in the video
23:47 Denyerec It would be good to look into the code to see how it works.
23:49 Denyerec This exists already:
23:49 Denyerec http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/extension-manuals/websiteportfolio/0.1.12/view/1/1/#id2831739
23:49 Denyerec But I think it would be good to write my own, or at least customise that one.
