01:42 pwatol Is anyone here?
03:29 PaulLS Hi all, I'm trying to include a php script to output content into a page and am following the tutorial at http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/references/doc_core_tsref/4.0.0/view/14/1/ ... it's a bit unclear as to where I'd define the element on the actual page itself and how to go about doing that
04:18 brain-xy hi all
06:40 uschi good morning folks :))
06:41 uschi morning koomi_
06:53 uschi koomi, are you talkative already?
06:54 dax77 good morning @all
06:54 uschi morning dax77
06:54 uschi *yawn*
06:54 dax77 oh, up early :)
06:55 uschi yes, struggling with file permissions
06:55 uschi why is it, that even as an admin i cannot delete a whole directory from fileadmin
06:57 uschi and then i need to understand what is meant by indexing with respect to dam
06:57 uschi that is the task for the day
06:57 dax77 you have to define the recursive-delet-level
06:57 dax77 its in your user setup
06:57 uschi aha, and where?
06:57 uschi there is an option for the page tree
06:57 uschi but for files?
06:58 dax77 Directory: Delete recursively (rm -Rf)
06:58 dax77 tools->user
06:59 uschi aaaah, there it is
07:14 brain-xy morning all..
07:15 brain-xy pizza for breakfast?
07:16 uschi there is some left from yesterday night, brain-xy, want some?
07:16 brain-xy no.. i meant if i should throw one into my ofen :P
07:16 brain-xy but.. yes.. i can't have enough of pizza :)
07:19 brain-xy hurray :D
07:39 koomi uschi: now :) wasn't even there
07:40 uschi morning :)
07:41 koomi moin :)
07:57 Phlogiston_ hello guys :)
08:18 Phlogiston_ oh no one here on saturdays? =)
08:21 bane007 hi there!
08:22 bane007 is it possible to choose only specific pages for menu?
08:24 bane007 aha i found it
08:25 af_ hi, how could I select a different html template for each language?
08:26 bane007 af_ try if statements
08:27 af_ I have this now: content.file = fileadmin/template/main/template.it.html
08:27 af_ on what variable should I do the if?
08:27 koomi af_: you don't use tv, right?
08:27 af_ config.language?
08:28 koomi you need a condition
08:28 af_ koomi, right, is the plain static things
08:28 koomi depending on the language, you take a different template
08:28 koomi so define your constants like template.it = $it, template.en = $en
08:28 koomi and in the condition test for the language used
08:29 koomi http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/references/doc_core_tsref/4.0.0/view/4/1/
08:29 koomi you should probably read the frontend localization guide before starting
08:29 koomi will clear a lot of questions - and certainly raise some new ones :)
08:30 af_ well I have localization working now
08:31 af_ oh perfect (the url)
08:31 af_ let's see
08:44 af_ [globalVar = GP:L = 1] is a correct if?
08:48 koomi looks good
08:49 koomi you can always test it with page.20 = TEXT, page.20.value = L=1 worked :)
08:50 af_ some pieces are missing
08:50 af_ [globalVar = GP:L=1]
08:50 af_ config {
08:50 af_ template = fileadmin/template/main/template.it.html
08:50 af_ }
08:51 af_ how could I retrieve this?
08:51 af_ config.template?
08:51 af_ content.file = config.template
08:51 af_ does nto work
08:55 koomi af_: if you want to use a constant you need to access it via {$constantName}
08:56 koomi in your case it would be {$config.file} or even better {$mySite.template.it} so you won't override anything
08:58 af_ pff, no way
08:58 af_ plugin.tx_automaketemplate_pi1 { content = FILEcontent.file = {$mysite}
08:59 koomi plugin.tx_automaketemplate_pi1.content.file = {$mysite}
08:59 koomi you sure about content = CONTENT, contnet.file = bla?
09:00 koomi you could also change the constant's value ...
09:00 koomi but that's v2 :)
09:01 koomi af_: you could always use phpfi to post your ts code ...
09:01 af_ what is that?
09:02 af_ http://phpfi.com/226642
09:02 af_ here it id
09:02 af_ it is
09:02 af_ why line 26 does not works?
09:04 koomi af_: because you did not define a constant correctly :)
09:04 af_ so far so good
09:05 koomi go to "info modify" in the template tool
09:05 koomi and edit constants
09:05 koomi there you'd define a few constants: mysite.template.it = bla, mysite.template.en = morebla
09:05 koomi then you'd set the value of the template file in the conditition
09:06 koomi hmm. phpfi is borked in konqueror
09:07 koomi af_: like so http://phpfi.com/226643
09:08 koomi line 13 is important
09:08 koomi your first language - or default language - is L = 0 by the way
09:09 af_ http://phpfi.com/226644 -> why the if does not works?
09:09 koomi af_: do you have &L=1 in your url?
09:09 af_ yes
09:09 koomi af_: add page.20 = TEXT, page.20.value = a test in that condition
09:10 koomi to see if it works
09:10 koomi but!
09:10 koomi you've got to define page = PAGE before that :)
09:10 af_ uhm
09:10 koomi (at least i think so)
09:12 koomi [globalVar = GP:L=1]
09:12 koomi config {
09:12 koomi sys_language_uid = 1
09:12 koomi language = it
09:12 koomi locale_all = it_IT
09:12 koomi }
09:12 koomi page.20 = TEXT
09:12 koomi page.20.value = a test
09:13 koomi [end]
09:13 koomi works
09:13 koomi even with page defined (page = PAGE) after the condition
09:13 koomi so give this block a try: if you see "a test" at the bottom the condition is working
09:13 koomi else it aint :)
09:13 Phlogiston_ any templavoila users here? I'm going to use it for the first time and now I'm going to create my template. The main template how should it look like? It should contain the divs where the content and menus are filled in right? So its actually a normal template, just wihtout markers?
09:14 koomi Phlogiston_: basicly yes.
09:14 koomi Phlogiston_: instead of markers you select "leaves" from the "tree"
09:14 koomi af_: don't be :)
09:14 Phlogiston_ so I'm going to create a html and css file now?
09:14 koomi Phlogiston_: jep
09:14 Phlogiston_ Does TV recognize my divs later automatically then?
09:15 koomi Phlogiston_: nope. you've got to select them
09:15 Phlogiston_ ok
09:15 koomi Phlogiston_: read the futuristic template building tutorial - they cover it pretty thorougly
09:15 Phlogiston_ and I can create additional subtemplates for example the main part on my page right?
09:15 Phlogiston_ yes after I've done that I will read there
09:17 koomi af_: :)
09:17 koomi af_: you can't use condition in {}
09:18 koomi af_: http://phpfi.com/226645 like this (line 32ff)
09:18 af_ now this line: content.file = fileadmin/template/main/template.it.html
09:18 koomi oh. there's a . missing on line 33
09:19 af_ oh
09:19 koomi this ought to work :)
09:19 af_ non I am seeing now
09:19 af_ let's see
09:19 koomi np: Carmen McRae - Get It Straight (Live)
09:20 koomi config.no_cache = 1 might be helpful
09:20 af_ great it works!
09:20 af_ so cool
09:21 koomi ^^
09:21 af_ now I have understood-> no if between {}
09:21 af_ yeah
09:22 koomi now try some constants (in the constant field this time)
09:22 af_ and I have to put the thing after the definition
09:26 af_ mysite.template.en = fileadmin/template/main/template.en.html -> this way?
09:26 af_ but in "Constants"?
09:26 af_ no in "Setup"?
09:26 koomi constants :)
09:27 koomi that way you've got one place to define everything that might change
09:27 koomi without having to dig in your actual setup
09:27 koomi + it's handy because you can simply overwrite it for some pages with an extension template
09:28 koomi af_: check the modern template building tutorial from typo3.org - i think they cover it there too
09:28 af_ it does not work anymore
09:28 af_ ${mysite.template.en}
09:29 koomi you broke it! :)
09:29 koomi did you set mysite.template.en = fileadmin/something/something
09:29 koomi in the constants field?
09:29 af_ sure I dod
09:29 af_ did
09:29 koomi oh
09:29 koomi {$mysite}
09:29 koomi not ${mysite}
09:29 koomi ^^
09:30 muh-die-kuh is there a way to search for all extensions which have to be updated?
09:31 koomi muh-die-kuh: if you find something like that please let me know
09:33 muh-die-kuh i cant believe that there isnt such an option...
09:33 muh-die-kuh but im looking for it for weeks now
09:33 muh-die-kuh ill write to the ml, i guess
09:33 koomi famous last words before someone wrote an extension
09:35 muh-die-kuh ;-)
09:42 Richard-nl Hey hey
09:42 Richard-nl Someone here?
09:43 Richard-nl With FTP where can I find the SysFolder ?
09:44 uschi hi Richard-nl
09:44 Richard-nl Hey Hey
09:44 uschi what do you mean by sysfolder here?
09:45 koomi Richard-nl: the sysfolder is just a database entry. it's a special kind of page
09:45 Richard-nl You can add a special forlder where users can down-/upload stuff.
09:45 uschi you mean the a sysfolder in your page tree?
09:45 uschi dax77?
09:45 uschi are you there?
09:45 dax77 jo
09:45 Richard-nl Yes.
09:46 uschi i still cannot delete my directories using dam file module
09:46 dokma hi all
09:46 Richard-nl I want do check what is inside that sysfolder with a FTP-programm
09:46 dokma richard-nl sysfolders are not filesystem folders
09:46 dokma they are database structures
09:46 uschi Richard-nl, you cannot access a sysfolder via ftp, because it is a database record
09:46 dax77 uschi: sorry, didn't know you were using dam - I don't :(
09:46 Richard-nl Oh.
09:46 dokma you cannot navigate them using ftp
09:46 Richard-nl And when I add a page to it?
09:46 dokma because they are not on the filesystem
09:46 Richard-nl Oh. ok
09:46 dokma same thing
09:47 uschi then you add a new entry in table pages
09:47 dokma it is all in the database
09:47 Richard-nl Oh.
09:47 dokma only things that you see in the file tab in the main menu
09:47 dokma can be seen on the filesystem
09:47 dokma those are actual files and folders
09:48 Richard-nl Ahh...
09:48 Richard-nl I get it now.
09:48 uschi enlightenment on a lovely saturday morning
09:48 Richard-nl Storage Folder is the same in that way
09:48 dokma I've got a menu question: how do I make each menu entry a bit more to the right than the previous one by prepending   to them?
09:49 dokma so the first menu item has no  
09:49 dokma second one has  
09:49 dokma third    etc.
09:49 dokma can option split be used here?
09:50 Richard-nl Make the first menu option also with a  
09:50 Richard-nl If someone rol-over it you remove the  
09:50 dokma you didn't get me right
09:50 dokma I want the menu to look like this
09:50 dokma item1
09:50 dokma item2
09:51 dokma item3
09:51 dokma item4
09:51 dokma where all items are on the same level
09:51 Richard-nl I don't know that one.
09:52 dokma I'll have to keep digging in the archives
09:52 dokma option split seems to be somewhere near there
09:52 dokma if I would define something like this
09:52 dokma temp.optionsplit = ||   ||    ||    
09:52 dokma but I do not know how to use it
09:53 dokma how to write ts that makes that option split used and prepended to each menu item
09:54 Richard-nl I cannot help you with that because I use a pre-made tamplete with already the menu in it (www.kringag.nl)
09:54 uschi dokma, what are all those   good for?
09:55 uschi i do not understand what you want to achieve
09:55 dokma to get my menu items aligned like this
09:55 dokma item1
09:55 dokma item2
09:55 dokma item3
09:55 dokma item4
09:55 dokma for menu items all on the same level
09:55 uschi what about using css for this?
09:55 koomi same thought here
09:55 uschi what is the markup for your menu?
09:55 dokma classic ul
09:56 uschi is item2 a subpage of item1, or are the all on the same level
09:56 dokma all same level
09:57 uschi you know, how many entries will be there?
09:57 uschi so, four items and that is it?
09:58 dokma not 100%
09:58 dokma but there wont be much more that 5-7
09:58 uschi but it will not change very often?
09:58 dokma no
09:58 uschi ok, then i have an example for you :)
09:59 uschi go to www.datenwolken.de and have a look at the clouds menu on top
09:59 uschi this is a normal <ul>
09:59 Richard-nl Thanks for the answer. See you.
09:59 uschi ciao Richard-nl
09:59 dokma adio richard
10:00 uschi i shall paste the ts-code of the menu at phpfi.com, wait
10:00 muh-die-kuh koomi: there are two possiblities to do this: TER Update Check ( ter_update_check ) and Light Extension Manager ( ch_lightem )
10:03 uschi dokma, ts-code for the clouds menu is here: http://phpfi.com/226648
10:03 dokma tx
10:04 uschi you will have to write the appropriate css-classes, though
10:04 dokma I see the trick is using field:title
10:04 dokma is it possible to get item offset?
10:04 dokma that would be much more practical for me
10:05 uschi this is done via css
10:05 uschi look at the classes in my css
10:05 dokma I understood how you performed after typo3 is done
10:05 dokma what I need is typo3 to output menu item offsets instead of page titles
10:05 uschi class="classics" has a different position then class="webstuff"
10:05 dokma after that css would be easy part
10:06 dokma yes I understood that
10:06 dokma all I need is to get menu item offset instead of page title
10:06 uschi well in the datenwolken it is done via optionsplit
10:06 dokma that might be my way
10:06 dokma I just do not know how to do that
10:06 uschi yes, but where to get the menu itemoffset from?
10:06 dokma any examples of option split for this?
10:07 dokma no clue
10:07 dokma option split might suffice
10:07 uschi this line is optionsplit:
10:07 uschi allWrap = <li class="home off">|</li> || <li class="webstuff off">|</li> || <li class="classics off">|</li> || <li class="privat off">|</li>
10:08 dokma aaaahhhh
10:08 dokma darn
10:08 dokma it was too obvious for me
10:08 dokma i see it now
10:08 dokma that is it
10:08 dokma the problem is how to truncate the unneeded entries
10:09 dokma because I would like to make it just a bit dynamic
10:09 uschi which unneeded entries?
10:09 dokma so I do not have to rewrite it every time
10:09 dokma i change the number of entries
10:09 uschi hmmmm
10:09 dokma I would like to write the option split for lets say 10 elements
10:09 dokma and then truncate the unneeded ones from the end
10:09 uschi this means looping with split, and i did not get it yet
10:10 dokma is it possible?
10:10 uschi wrong way
10:10 dokma Ill try to figure it out
10:10 uschi see funtion split in tsref
10:10 dokma ok
10:11 koomi are there good oswd.org alternatives out there?
10:12 uschi koomi, are you using dam?
10:12 koomi good time to visit http://oswd.org then :)
10:12 koomi uschi: nope. should i?
10:12 uschi would be great, because i do have some questions
10:14 koomi hehe
10:28 uschi hi just2b_ :)
10:28 just2b_ hi uschi
10:28 uschi just2b_ do you use dam?
10:29 just2b_ sometimes
10:29 uschi can you explain to me in simple word, what indexing means and does?
10:30 just2b_ every file has an entry in the Db so that you can store more information to a file and e.g. search for it and show in the BE how often and where an image is used
10:31 koomi is there an extension which automagically detects certain strings in the page content and marks them or wraps them with custom content? so if a person's name is in the page content i could wrap it with a microformat/vcard entry?
10:32 uschi and as long a file is not indexed, this entry in the db does not exist?
10:32 uschi and that is it?
10:37 just2b_ yes
10:37 just2b_ not indexed > you can't use the file
10:38 uschi do you know the exact table where this index is stored?
10:58 reber hello typo3 world
10:59 muh-die-kuh how can i find out what a specific cHash means?
11:03 just2b_ maybe you can look inbto the chash table, bug just guessing
11:03 koomi http://typo3.org/development/articles/the-mysteries-of-chash/
11:03 muh-die-kuh oh, thanks :)
11:04 muh-die-kuh koomi: did you get my message regarding ter updating?
11:04 koomi muh-die-kuh: jep. thanks :)
11:33 dokma back from lunch/jogging
11:33 dokma puf pant
11:33 dokma :)
11:33 dokma greets all
12:02 Phlogiston_ I can't move my HMENU Layers with leftOffset, can you help me? http://www.schirin.net/zff/index.php?id=4
12:02 just2b_ Phlogiston_ why not using css?
12:02 Phlogiston_ instead of table???
12:03 just2b_ oh you mean 2nd level?
12:03 Phlogiston_ nope, first
12:03 just2b_ 1st level can be done with padding
12:03 Phlogiston_ ok I will, not sure how... is it better in this case to not use a table? I had some troubles when I tried on anohter side, is there some example code somewhere?
12:05 just2b_ you can still move a table with padding
12:05 just2b_ no need to change to divs if you don'T want to
12:05 Phlogiston_ hmm by the way are those Offsets from TS measured from browser window? My page is somewhere in the middle with a % margin from top, will this cause troubles?
12:06 Phlogiston_ just2b_: if you strongly recommend me using divs, I will :)
12:06 just2b_ i don't use layer menus, so sorry can't help more
12:07 Phlogiston_ ok np
12:08 just2b_ you can do the things also with css if you want to
12:09 Phlogiston_ ah now it rocks ;)
12:09 just2b_ take a look at http://www.just2b.com/mein-typo3/css-ts-menues.html
12:09 Phlogiston_ ah thats you, I knew your page already! Thanks, its cool :)
12:10 just2b_ yeah, just2b is always me;)
12:10 just2b_ everywhere, typo3.net as mod, here, in www
12:27 MasterYin hey everyone
12:28 MasterYin got a question
12:34 MasterYin how can I set the following condition: [PIDinRootline=5] temp.xyz.20.text.field = table_field ***WHRE
12:34 Ries morning guys
12:35 Ries MasterYin: Yoi need to put that in your typoscript setup
12:35 MasterYin how can I set the following condition: [PIDinRootline=5] temp.xyz.20.text.field = table_field ***WHERE UID=5 [end]
12:35 Phlogiston_ Is it possible to change the name of the id of items from a Layers Menu? So I can access them?
12:35 just2b_ you wanna change IDs of a page?`
12:36 Ries Phlogiston_: I never used TMENU_LAYERS...sorry
12:36 MasterYin no, i want to use the table_field where the UID is 5 for example
12:36 Ries Phlogiston_: if you are looking for not using tge page title in your menu but some other title then try alias and see if it is supported
12:37 Phlogiston_ Hmm I was talking about the id="foohash" of the divs around the entries on first level
12:39 Ries Phlogiston_: I never used tmenu_layers, I always make them from HEMNU's and TMENU's
12:40 Phlogiston_ hmm ok...
12:40 Ries I believe that a TMENU_LAYER is some kidna build in layer script... it might be hard coded, it might be configurable
12:40 Phlogiston_ Ries: yes you're right..
12:41 Phlogiston_ <div id="itemID0da5a74c3d" style="width:100%; height:100%;">&nbsp;<a href="index.php?id=3" onfocus="blurLink(this);" onmouseover="GL_hideAll(&quot;617238&quot;);" onmouseout="GL_resetAll(&quot;617238&quot;);">Home</a>&nbsp; |</div></td>
12:41 Phlogiston_ i would like to change the style="...."
12:42 Phlogiston_ hmm i could insert another div myself... but that quite much then
12:43 null0_ hi
12:43 Phlogiston_ you know what I want to do is to align the <a> link at the buttom of that div... Hmm I think I can do this easier with css...
12:43 Phlogiston_ but how? =)
12:44 Ries Phlogiston_: Why not make the it yourelf with hmenu's and tmenus?
12:44 Phlogiston_ not sure :)
12:44 Ries Phlogiston_: http://www.rvantwisk.nl/typo3-snippets/yacbddm-yet-another-css-based-drop-down-menu-for-typo3.html
12:48 Phlogiston_ i found it now its hardcoded :(
12:48 Phlogiston_ id="itemID'.t3lib_div::shortmd5($this->I['uid'].'-'.$this->WMid).'" style="width:100%; height:100%;">'.$item.'</div>';
12:49 Phlogiston_ Ries: and why is that one there better???
12:52 MasterYin I will ask my question agaim a little modified, how can a pick up a value from the Table "pages" with a spezial UID, normaly i use text.field = nav_title but the I got allways the nav_title from the page I just look at, how can I pick up allways the value from the page WHERE UID = *example 5*
12:52 Ries Phlogiston_: it's better because you sir will have full control on what you generate and how your code looks like
12:52 Ries Phlogiston_: I also found that tmenu_layers create a shit load of junk in the header increasing teh page size tremedously
12:53 Phlogiston_ hmm... ok... strange. I can change that php file: typo3/sysext/cms/tslib/media/scripts/tmenu_layers.php clear all caches, but the output isn't changed... any idea on that?
12:53 Ries MasterYin: you might need records in that case
12:53 MasterYin can you give me an example ?
12:53 Ries Phlogiston_: No clue, it shoudl have been changed I gues...
12:54 Ries MasterYin: http://typo3.org/documentation/document-library/references/doc_core_tsref/4.0.0/view/8/10/
12:54 Ries MasterYin: I also think that typoscript by example has some good examples
12:54 MasterYin thx thats what i search for
12:55 Phlogiston_ Ries: ok I think you won... lets get rid of hmenu layers ;) but whats the best way to include that piece of javascript in my template?
12:55 Ries Phlogiston_: I think the example was shown...
12:55 Ries I also have a delayed version, so teh menu is less jumpy
12:55 Phlogiston_ Ries: hmm with a text object... I'm using templavoila....
12:56 Phlogiston_ Ries: where?
12:59 Ries I am using TV aswell, same rules apply
12:59 Phlogiston_ Ries: do you have a link for a delayed version? or can you tell me how to change that?
13:04 Phlogiston_ Ries: hmm? =)
13:15 Ries Phlogiston_: hang on
13:16 Ries Phlogiston_: see pm
13:20 dokma anyone knows how to detect which font firefox selected for particular text?
13:20 dokma i'm on linux
13:20 dokma I installed win fonts
13:21 dokma but it seems that firefox is using the same font no matter what I specify in css
13:21 dokma I've got web developer extension installed
13:22 dokma uschi u here?
13:27 Phlogiston_ dokma: I would recommend you asking that in a linux or firefox channel
13:27 dokma is there such a channel on this server?
13:27 dokma I came here only for typo3 and I'm not that versed in irc
13:28 Phlogiston_ yes there is
13:28 Phlogiston_ what linux do you use?
13:28 dokma tx
13:28 dokma debian
13:28 dokma testing
13:28 Phlogiston_ do /j #debian then
13:28 Phlogiston_ or try the same for #firefox
13:28 dokma tx
13:28 dokma I'm there
13:28 dokma ok
13:29 Phlogiston_ good luck
13:46 af_ cool
14:48 olegs hello all
14:48 Ries hey olegs
14:49 olegs if I install typo3 into a subfolder and later want to move it to website root - what kind of problems should I expect?
14:49 olegs hi Ries
14:49 gerards templates?
14:50 olegs probably
14:50 olegs no TV at first
14:50 gerards realURL? depending on how you set it .
14:50 gerards any apache mod_rewrites?
14:50 olegs OK - realURL and mod_rewrites can be re-configured
14:51 gerards if image magick is local to your website, maybe need to change path?
14:51 olegs anything in database data?
14:51 gerards possibly.
14:51 olegs imagemagic is global there...
14:52 olegs there's 11 yrs old static website that I want to migrate into T3
14:52 gerards for database data, a good start is to check the TCA for the upload folders.
14:52 olegs TCA of all the installed extensions?
14:52 gerards yes.
14:52 gerards just go a "find | grep" in the typo3conf/ext directory.
14:53 olegs I;ll do. I'd expected this kind of setup to be relative to t3 root.
14:54 |Affe| Hey there
14:54 gerards olegs it depends on what your document root is in apache.
14:54 olegs hi |Affe|
14:54 olegs A! I see.
14:54 olegs any other ideas?
14:55 gerards olegs you best case is that the document root already points exactly to the subfolder.
14:55 gerards if so, you just move it down. then your templates will be intact.
14:55 gerards and databse (AFAIK) will be stable too.
14:56 olegs no, the docroot is /Users/<removed>/public_html. I plan first to install t3 in /Users/<removed>/public_html/gallery and when It'll be ready, just move it 1 level up.
14:56 gerards some extensions also require an absolute file system path. I'm not sure how to check for those except by checking the ts setup for each extension.
14:57 |Affe| Is anybody here who could modify an extension for me (for a payment of course....)
14:57 gerards olegs why not install it in /Users/<removed>/publick_html_temp ?
14:58 olegs because I can't ask it from admin.
14:58 gerards |Affe|: might be good to ask on monday.
14:59 |Affe| ok thanks
14:59 olegs I'd rather play with .htaccess to mask t3 inside the root.
15:00 gerards |Affe|: I do extension development. please send some info to me.
15:00 |Affe| query?
15:00 gerards olegs: becuase if you install it in public_html/gallery, then you'lll HAVE to have your document root point to public_html
15:00 olegs yes it is
15:00 olegs is is poiting there
15:01 gerards that might be hard to move up later (for templates and uploads reasons).
15:01 olegs I see
15:01 gerards olegs is it possible to create another virtual name host?
15:01 olegs that;s what I have to know before we start working.
15:01 gerards typo3.mydomain.com
15:01 gerards and points directly to public_html/gallery?
15:02 olegs gerards: it's not. because of ogranizational reasons
15:02 gerards i understand fully.
15:02 gerards is this for demo purposes?
15:02 olegs can't ask that from sysadmin. not our server, etc.,etc.
15:02 olegs no
15:02 olegs not for demo, for work.
15:02 gerards i see.
15:03 gerards well then you have no choice but to install it in public_html/gallery
15:03 olegs gerards: I played with .htaccess
15:03 gerards how does htaccess help?
15:03 gerards how does htaccess help in this case?
15:11 _Affe_ gerards?
15:12 gerards yes?
15:12 _Affe_ Would you do that? I mean, modify an extension for me?
15:13 gerards i need to see details. and i'll quote you.
15:13 gerards pm?
15:15 null0_ does someone know a "free" good irc client for windows? It looks like i have to star onto a $MS Os for the next few days :(
15:15 gerards hahahha!
15:15 pulponair41 hi there
15:15 gerards null0_: I'm using miranda. its ok.
15:16 null0_ s/star/stare/ i meant
15:16 gerards null0_: to tell the truth, windows OS as workstations aren't horrible.
15:16 null0_ ah thank you gerards
15:16 pulponair41 gerards: right
15:16 af_ cool, all works
15:17 pulponair41 NickServ RELEASE pulponair ********
15:17 pulponair41 fuck
15:17 pulponair41 :)
15:17 af_ I am proud of my new typo3 site
15:17 gerards time to change pssword eh?
15:17 pulponair41 i gotta change my password
15:17 null0_ *G!*
15:17 null0_ .oO( next time Bierglas)
15:17 olegs gerards: to plant t3 files into existing sites
15:18 olegs existing files
15:19 pulponair41 hmm
15:20 gerards i don't see how .htaccess files can help you much in that. unless you want to write tones of modrewrite statements.
15:20 gerards s/tones/ton/
15:20 gerards s/ton/tons/
15:20 gerards ;)
15:23 af_ there is a way to duplicate on another system to do testing?
15:23 af_ (a typo3 install)
15:24 pulponair af_:there are several ways
15:24 pulponair af_: for a small site you could just install a nacked t3 and import via t3d
15:25 af_ I see
15:25 pulponair af_:for larger sites i recommend moving the whole docroot over and doing a db dump import
15:25 af_ yeah, it's small
15:25 af_ ah that's quick!
15:26 pulponair af_: perhaps you need to adjust installer settings if the target system uses a different environment (IM etc)
15:26 pulponair gerards: yeah it is creepy
15:26 af_ well just the hostname is different
15:27 pulponair gerards: all those dublication crap
15:27 pulponair i personally prefere the "copy over" -variant
15:27 gerards pulponair: yeah me too.
15:27 gerards pulponair maybe you can help olegs.
15:28 gerards he needs to install typo3 on a subdirectory of the apache docroot.
15:28 gerards but he needs to move it to the docroot itself in the future.
15:28 pulponair gerards: hmmm
15:28 gerards pulponair: any supercool,easy way to do it?
15:29 pulponair gerards: i wonder if it is a problem at all
15:29 pulponair gerads: since all paths a relative ...and templates know about their location
15:29 gerards just thinking about a db script to change all the subdirect/uploads/my_dog.jpg to uploads/my_dog.jpg gives me headaches.
15:29 gerards oh is that right?
15:30 pulponair gerards: they are relative imho
15:30 gerards ah....
15:30 pulponair just uploads/me.jpg
15:30 gerards even if real url is used?
15:30 pulponair i would give it a try without any modifications
15:30 pulponair gerads: real url could become an issue
15:30 pulponair but i do not know for sure
15:31 gerards yeah.... because of real url, i always thought images, media were all absolute.
15:31 pulponair so what is the reason for installing t3 into a subdir?
15:31 gerards olegs kinda disappeared for a while.
15:32 pulponair i assume it is for testing purpose or something
15:32 pulponair if that's the case i would just open a new testing vhost ..
15:32 olegs yep
15:32 olegs I was busy with .htaccess
15:32 gerards olegs.
15:32 olegs I can put index.php inside old files.
15:32 gerards its really easy pulponair is right.
15:32 muh-die-kuh can one of you recommend me a german book about developing t3 exts?
15:33 gerards all images, js scripts, media are all relative.
15:33 gerards the reason it works is because there is a base URL somewher ein templates.
15:33 olegs pulponair: it's an existing server where I dont have access to httpd.conf
15:33 gerards olegs: so when you move it up, you just change the baseurl in typoscript setup and it should all work.
15:34 olegs gerards: if this is the case, that's quite good.
15:34 olegs thank you for help.
15:34 gerards <em> should</em>
15:34 pulponair olegs: just give it a try and come back to us if you run into any trouble
15:34 olegs ^)
15:34 gerards <strong><em>should</em></strong>
15:34 Phlogiston_ how can I include the search box on everypage? What I am missing is the name of the "plugin" == standard typo3 search box?
15:34 gerards <h1><strong><em>should</em></strong></h1>
15:35 gerards Phlogiston_: i had that problem too.
15:35 gerards in the end i just created my own form on every page.
15:35 Phlogiston_ lol
15:35 gerards its pretty easy and works.
15:35 Phlogiston_ then I would use an extension
15:35 gerards why?
15:36 pulponair Phlogiston_: just use your own form ...ts html snippet as gerards suggested ...i use to do it the same way
15:36 Phlogiston_ I will use macina_searchbox
15:36 olegs pulponair: thanks. I prefer to measure twice before cutting ...
15:37 gerards olegs: i personally cut, curse, measure then cut.
15:39 pulponair gerards: :http://www.typo3-unleashed.net/singleentry/date/2007/04/13/tv-drag-drop.html
15:39 pulponair :)
15:39 gerards ahhh is that your site?
15:40 gerards and is that your post?
15:40 pulponair gerards: the blog no but the extension
15:40 gerards sweet.
15:40 Phlogiston_ hmm i added some new elements to my TV template updted the mappings but it does not change in FE?!?
15:40 gerards clear cache.
15:43 Phlogiston_ i did
15:44 Phlogiston_ my new divs that I added to the template do not even show up in sourcecode
15:46 Phlogiston_ whats the difference between a Section and a Container in TS?
15:46 Phlogiston_ *TV
15:47 pulponair Phlogiston_: sections are of use for repetive elements
15:48 Phlogiston_ hmm ok
15:48 Phlogiston_ i still can't change the TV object :(
15:48 Phlogiston_ the changes are not in the FE
15:50 gerards Phlogiston_: make sure you saved the new mappings in the same DS/TO
15:51 Phlogiston_ I have only one :)
15:52 Phlogiston_ I can create a container inside a container?
15:54 Ries Phlogiston_: yes you can
15:54 Ries That's why there are containers :)
15:55 Phlogiston_ hmm without the container it seems to work
16:00 null0_ lol
16:54 af_ uhm, installed mini news
16:55 af_ tx-mininews-pi1-listrowField-teaser -> why if I define a class no effects?
17:10 olegs hmm
17:10 olegs will 8MB memory_limit be enough for install?
17:27 gerards olegs: i think extmgm needs more than that.
20:17 uschi can someone please explain something to me?
20:17 uschi subject is Web->View
20:18 uschi on a page with tv, i do not know how it behaves in the traditional way
20:19 uschi if i am on Web->View and click on a page, i get the pencils for editing a content element
20:19 uschi but: if i click on the pencil, all i am allowed to edit is the header of the respective content elements
20:20 uschi not the content of the ce itself
20:20 Ries uschi: Wasn't there a issue with taht with TV??
20:21 Ries I never used that function myself, since I find it highly confusing
20:21 uschi this is what i am asking for, i do not know the answer
20:21 Ries normalyl it should show a other pencil for the CE
20:22 uschi yes, and that pencil i can have how or not or whatsoever?
20:23 uschi i am running into one problem after the other and ...
20:26 uschi right, Ries, i found it, it is beneath the text
20:26 uschi usability is ... well, may i call it poor?
20:28 uschi Ries, is that where the pencil is found if you do not use TV?
20:40 Ries uschi: I don't use the penceil at all, I just know with TV is also can work
20:40 Ries But I don't find teh pencial usable at all..
20:40 Ries simply with a lot of CE's there are a shit load of pencils on the screen
20:40 Ries and that confuses me a lot
20:40 Ries I find it easer to edit the CE's in the BE
20:41 uschi this is exactly why i did not come accross this problem up to now :)
20:42 uschi but, imagine you are not Ries, and you are not uschi, then the Web->View mode comes in very handy
20:43 uschi even for me, if there are lots of CEs FCEs on one page
20:44 Ries uschi: with all these little pensil icons, I don't know what I am editing anymore
20:44 Ries usably is inline editing
20:44 uschi look, the problem is
20:45 uschi for me, personally, using it right now
20:45 uschi if i create a CE, i see the header and the content and can edit it at once
20:46 uschi if i want to edit the very same CE, i have to click different penicils
20:46 uschi one for the header and one for the content of that fce
20:46 uschi or ce, better
20:47 uschi how the hell i am supposed to explain this to my editors?????
20:49 uschi Ries???
20:50 uschi we need to start an initiative on that, in order to get it fixed and logical
20:52 Ries uschi: what i would suggest is look into google
20:52 Ries I know tehre has been issues with it, I just cannot remember what issues
20:52 Ries since I don't use it I never take a look into these thibgs
20:53 Ries and try to solve it, I write mich more extension then I make typo3 instalaltions (on average 1 in two-3 months)
20:53 uschi but that is utterly wrong, if you set up a system someone can really work with
20:54 uschi not you writing extensions
20:54 uschi i mean :)
20:55 Ries uschi: Well.. I teach them to use the page module for adding content
20:55 uschi that is what we will have to do, and i know what teaching means
20:55 Ries if I go to view I don't even see the little penciels
20:55 Ries how do I enabled them?
20:56 uschi good question :)
20:56 uschi if i find out, i will report to you :)
20:57 Ries try tm_contentaccess?
20:59 uschi how will that work together with be_acl?
20:59 Ries well.. be_acl is not official, so I guess there i no connection
20:59 uschi as i told you, i am running from question into question
20:59 Ries we all do...
21:02 uschi it is a catch 22 situation
21:29 pulponair41 ding
21:30 Ries Hey pulponair
21:30 pulponair hey ries
22:04 pulponair BORInG!
22:05 Ries pulponair: think so??? :D
22:06 pulponair i meant i feel bored
22:08 Ries pulponair: were is your drinking mate?
22:11 pulponair Ries: more and more people arround me become bourgeois , get childs and become unflexible ...:|
22:12 pulponair ries: finding someone to go in for someting spontaneously becomes harder every year ;)
22:16 Ries pulponair: hahah yes I understand..... I am not sure how old you are
22:16 Ries but for me I am much less a pub kinda guy then I used to be.... Karina and I will not get any children though
22:18 pulponair ries: probably because there arent so much pubs in equador ?
22:21 Ries There are a couple, dutch pub, english pub etc
22:21 Ries But I am getting to old for that crap
22:26 pulponair Ries: well i wasnt talkin about pubs in detail....more about all kind of spontaneous free time activities ...
22:28 pulponair ries: it isnt even possible to phone someone like " hey dude its saturday the sun is shining lets get down to beach have a barbecue and lets play frissbee"
22:29 Ries that's indeed a shame....
22:30 Ries usually I used to do that often
22:30 Ries But here in the middle of teh big city things like that are not really possible, or I can go to the park where many peopel are
22:30 Ries so Karina and I go to teh beach once a while.... But that means taking a plane for a 30 minute fligh
22:30 Ries t
22:31 Ries leave on friday, and comeback on sunday or monday
22:31 pulponair ries: yeah its annying i received answers like "oh no today i have to meet my parents and afterwards we have to meet my girlfriends parents for cake and coffee and in the evening we go....and next weekend we are at ...what about in 2 months" ...
22:32 pulponair ries: and that is not related to my person as you may think ;)
22:32 Ries I do admit that living together with a GF changes things...
22:32 Ries hahaha, no it's not the person... I know
22:32 pulponair ries: yes right ...but not in that way
22:33 pulponair ries: all that would change in this case is something like "ok beaching sounds cool o gonna as my gf and call you back in a minute"
22:33 pulponair s/as/ask
22:34 pulponair well is used to asked the persons "hey what happend to you..." and i got answers like " i am 35 now and i need to plan my life." ...what a crap yes of course life needs to be planned but more in a directional way and not in this way. ..
22:34 pulponair s/is/i/
22:35 Ries yeaaa but it's not always that easy with two persons...
22:35 pulponair ries: yes right
22:36 pulponair ries: indeed if you got a child or something ..you are 100% right ...but this also happens with childless people
22:37 Ries well... if I look at me and karina
22:37 pulponair ries: beside that beaching is a activity childs can participate to :)
22:37 Ries we basicly always make plans, we are not going to sit and wait untill sonebody will call us
22:37 pulponair ries: oh you got me wrong
22:37 Ries well
22:38 Ries what I am trying to say is that once we have the paln, we don't change from it
22:39 pulponair ries: hmmm right depends on the plan ...if it is something like lets book a journey to another town you wont change it of course ...but if its something more loose/less important you are probably more flexible
22:39 Ries well... even things as simple as shopping is a plan and needs to be done :)
22:40 Ries But it all depends of the persons ofcourse...
22:40 Ries When I was living in NL.. I had friends that where married ( I was single)
22:40 Ries and they always had tiem for some fun...
22:40 pulponair right but it is not a full day time plan (at least for men) ;)
22:40 pulponair yes that is what i am talking about
22:40 Ries other I didn't see anymore... like a other friend... he was not even allowed to leave the house from his wife!!! :)
22:41 pulponair there is nothing against plans and relations and stuff it is all a question of social integration ;)
22:41 Ries are you married and licing together?
22:41 Ries living
22:42 pulponair sometimes it seems as if some people isolate themself argueing they are getting old and serious
22:42 pulponair ries: me?
22:42 pulponair no
22:42 pulponair but i used to live together with my former girlfriend
22:42 pulponair on problems
22:42 pulponair no problem
22:42 pulponair s
22:43 pulponair regarding the above named stuff ...of course some things but not that way
22:44 pulponair ries: anyway i thing we share the same opinion
22:44 Ries I think so
22:44 Ries it's just that typo3 doesn't share my opinion right now
22:44 Ries it doesn't show my damn 6th plugin
22:45 pulponair pi6?
22:47 Ries yeaaa
22:47 pulponair by doenst show you mean at the frontend?
22:49 Ries yes
22:49 Ries seems like that I 'forgot' something, my controller doesn't even get called
22:49 pulponair integrated via type43?
22:50 pulponair oh controller ....you are using the "elmar"- framework right?
22:51 Ries I think it's a bug in TV
22:51 Ries yeaaa lib/div
22:51 Ries with smarty
22:53 pulponair ries: i used it a very early stage ....didnt work that good but i am conviced it is way better know
22:54 Ries crap found it.... it's a 'feature' I missed :)
22:54 Ries pulponair: I don't like the design much, but it's under active ddevelopment
22:54 Ries and as long as I ignore the things I don't like... I can work with it
22:55 Ries I use 95% teh MVC features
22:55 Ries and all the others I don't use
22:55 Ries it just give me a heady system to use MVC
22:55 pulponair ries: to be honest i didnt look close at the current versions but it seemed a little "over academic" to me ..
22:56 pulponair compared to other mvc frameworks like rails or similar ...b
22:57 pulponair are there any complex plugins in ter using the "new api"?
22:59 Ries Not yet
22:59 pulponair ok
22:59 Ries it's indeed quite acadamic.... but I think it uses a wrong OO design
23:00 Ries My plugin consists if 6 plugins
23:00 Ries which holds a gallery/exhibition system
23:00 Ries User registration
23:00 Ries Awards system
23:00 Ries Press release system
23:00 pulponair Ries: yes the oo design is strange
23:00 Ries and a simpel workflow
23:00 Ries mostly teh plugin should beable to handle big galleries,
23:01 Ries in the order 100.000 images per gallery
23:01 Ries it does feature a multi-user, multi-gallery system...
23:01 Ries each BE user can create and manage there own galleries
23:01 pulponair sounds good
23:01 Ries I hope
23:02 Ries in teh next couple of weeks I am going to start testing the gallery...
23:02 Ries we have around 400GB of images laying around
23:02 pulponair to be honest i dont like writing frontend plugins :)
23:02 Ries all data for teh plugin is stored in postgresql instead of Mysql
23:02 pulponair though i do it anyway;)
23:02 Ries I like it actually...
23:02 Ries better then setting up typo3 intselfd
23:03 pulponair yes right
23:03 Ries I do have a design for a CMS aswell.... But I am still working on the DB design
23:03 Ries Teh core of teh CMS is already working (like bare core.... it says 'hellow world'
23:04 pulponair hehe
23:04 Ries But I am working on a DB design that can handle all features typo3 as, but then in a normalised DB design
23:04 pulponair ;)
23:04 pulponair YEAH fuck the XML and list relation stuff
23:06 Ries nothing wrong with XML.....
23:07 pulponair ries: no not in general ...but not for relational stuff like tv uses it
23:07 Ries it's just how you use and implement it
23:08 pulponair ries:http://www.chaosbutze.de/stat.png
