any tikifester around?
I guess not, because of the time zones...
anyway, just in case... I found a good candiate (imho) for the new name of the Trackers feature...
for after tracker revamp... or even earlier...
after thinking for many weeks about it
"Data Tables"
a single tracker will no be the equivalent to a database (the name that I'0ve been using for years to explain what trackers were, for people to whom "trackers" meant nothing) but to a datatable ***: chibaguy has joined #tikiwiki
ChanServ sets mode: +o chibaguy chibaguy: polom xavi: and with several datatables (like in mysql), linked, etc., with indexes (IsMain , etc), would mean something similar to a database
polom-after-earthquake!
good to see you around chibaguy
I read the log from yesterday... and saw the news...
are you already at home, or still in the "cubicle"? chibaguy: heh, yes, I made it home ok; everyone in my office is ok, and family is ok. xavi: phew... such event from Nature... chibaguy: Our house needs cleaning up though. It's hard to imagine how much it was shaking to move things around. No one was home at the time. xavi: you were lucky chibaguy: Except for the traumatized dog. xavi: oups chibaguy: I think she'll recover ok. xavi: good chibaguy: So you have a new name for trackers? xavi: he he... well yes (proposal, of course)
:-)
http://irc.tiki.org/irclogger_log/tikiwiki?date=2011-03-12,Sat&sel=24#l20 chibaguy: Ah, Data Tables. xavi: I would initially prefer "database", because users are more familiar (probably) with it
and you can use trackers to create your own custom database of items, etc
but a single tracker wouldn't be a database 'sensu stricto'
but a data table, like a mysql table within a mysql database
and that's why "Data Table"
they can have forms, reports, stats, etc.
from a single table (tracker) or from a set of tables (= database, tracker base = tracker set = Data base in Tiki) chibaguy: Yep, it's definitely logical. xavi: initially I thought that database (or data tables) might create confusion with uisers which know that the database in tiki is mysql, etc.
but in fact, that's not going to be the case, since users know that there are "file galleries" in Tiki, to hold user files, etc.
and they don't make the confusion with Tiki's own files (tiki-index.php , etc)
even if both things are "files"
so that's why I think that something similar to feature "Data Bases" o "Data Tables" would be a good candidate
s/a/some chibaguy: I think it's probably agreed that Trackers is too narrow (as in bug tracker) so your idea is in the right direction, for sure. xavi: not only narrow, but missleading for 90% of the users (and new admins) of most of the Tikis I've installed and helped to admin
in Spanish, Catalan, etc. "trackers" means nothing
and I still remember that it took me something like to 2 years (!) to understand that a Tracker in Tiki was like a database creator and manager. chibaguy: heh xavi: And in those 2 years I was looking for other software to manage custom databases in other cms's...
kind of frustrating
of course, documentation is much better know than before... but also overwhelming for a newbie... chibaguy: yep, sure shows that the name isn't self-explanatory. xavi: and the clearer the name, the better to start in the right and clear direction for the whole Tiki user base
s/better know/better nowadays
well, I'm back to testing the GroupMail feature in tiki 6.x...
it's not working for me in 6.x, I dunno why (and it was for sure, in 4.x... I documented it!)
and I was finally going to use it for production... -: xavi is sad to see how many things are still broken or not working properly in our stable 6.x, and the future LTS...) chibaguy: It seems like adding/enhancing new features should slow down or be paused and instead time should be put into fixing things. xavi: +10 chibaguy: Anyway for tiki 6. xavi: there needs to be a balance, of course (some "tiki service providers" probably need to "sell" new tiki features to get funding,e tc) chibaguy: Time to eat here now. I'll be back soon. ***: qoumaq has left xavi: but if the base is not working.... or if the features they have sold, break in < 24 months (in Europe) they are (should, at least) be in trouble
ok, enjoy your meal! ***: Yonixxx has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving.) sylvieg: agree with you guys - too many broken things in 6
It is time to slow down and to fix xavi: yes, sylvieg, I agree
last: webmail seems to be broken
and the last issue: webmail is not working for me, but the worst is that an admin seems to be unable to delete the non-working email account...
and that is consuming lots of browser time (ajax_xajax was enabled , etc)

Kissaki has joined #tikiwiki luciash: polom xavi: molop luciash: xavi: what about "Data Forms" ? I would rather prefer that to avoid confusion with real database tables... xavi: Hi luciash. Trackers are not just forms
and this confusion (imho) wouldn't exist, in the same way that there is not confusion with "files" (tiki files)
files from file galleries or files uploaded by ftp such as tiki-index.php, etc. (I'm talking about end users, etc)
"Data Reports" are for trackers in a similar way to "Data Forms" CIA-83: tikiwiki: 03chibaguy * r33342 10/trunk/css/ie7.css: [FIX] z-indexes added for IE7 to keep cssmenus on top of other content such as tabcontent. xavi: to me, the easiest, shortest, simplest, etc. would be either "Data Tables" or "Data Bases" (instead of Trackers)
"Structured Data" would be also quite specific, but it's not as easy for new users as Database (or data tables, if we don't want to use esactly the word "database"). luciash: "Data Records" sounds nice too :) or "Data Books" ? imho in every language any title can sound funny or confusing... imho it could stay Trackers... but translate in your language as you feel appropriate xavi: See this: Dadabik: Database Interface Creator... luciash: Dadabik ?
chibaguy: hi, good to hear that xavi: it's not a question of translation... I bet my 21-old USA students (non-techie) have no idea what a tracekr is
tracker -: luciash likes "Databook" ;) xavi: http://www.dadabik.org/ -> to create databases for users on a free soft. php + mysql (and other db's) based application CIA-83: tikiwiki: 03chibaguy * r33343 10/branches/proposals/6.x/css/ie7.css: [bp/r33342][FIX] z-indexes added for IE7 to keep cssmenus on top of other content such as tabcontent. xavi: Databooks: ok, good candidate, imho, also luciash: xavi: ah, i see chibaguy: re
that's good, luci.
xavi, I used Dadabik for a project years ago. It's pretty neat. xavi: yes, chibaguy, I agree.
I used it too for a few projects years ago (while I didn't know that trackers were to create databases)
a common use case is that a client has a (ms access or other) database, and they want it online
they will look for some software which allows them to have their database online, and they will not find Tiki as an alternative
even if they search the 1000+ pages of documentation! chibaguy: I think I might have known that Tiki's trackers were a database kind of thing, but I found Dadabik to be easy for a noob to use. IIRC, I didn't know how to do the same kinds of things with trackers. xavi: :-D ***: lphuberdeau has quit IRC (Remote host closed the connection) xavi: I didn't follow the evolution of dadabik since many years ago... but trackers are very powerful right now (while you don't hit any bug in your way)
I woner if dadabik followed a similar path as trackers did...
but anyway, beyond my roadmap for this weekend :-)

anyone using webmail for any of your clients?
tiki webmail, I mean
I'm willing to use GroupMail (based on webmail) for our local barter group in our suburb, and it's still a promising feature!
however, there are some tiny issues here and there which make it unusable for production
and I know jonnyb is quite busy with too many things related with Tiki luciash: webmail is usable only as emergency solution as it doesn't support attachments yet chibaguy: Time to sleep here. Will be back tomorrow. Thanks for your good thoughts and words, guys. luciash: the attachments are displayed garbage-text xavi: nor non-english text, nor paginating the webmail module, nor mail folders, ... luciash: chibaguy: sleep well xavi: ok, g'night
luciash: more basic than that: non english text is not shown! (I mean , accents, etc): hidden in html version of message, and weird chars shown in the text version of the message
or maybe charset conflicts? (even if I try to use utf-8 everywhere)
I'm willing to pay some coder to fix those things.... but everyone seems to be too busy...
we need more coders willing to help to fix things (even with paid work, we need more help!) ***: chibaguy has quit IRC (Ping timeout: 244 seconds) xavi: bbl (food time)
and walk-the-dog-time-on-a-rainy-day luciash: i got czech characters correctly
in webmail xavi: lucky you! luciash: i fixed some issues actually in the listings xavi: then it must be charset issue
there are issues still
maybe because user sends email with iso-8859-1 and tiki expect utf-8
:-( luciash: in 6 OR TRUNK ?
oops, sorry xavi: 6x
using stable
well, "stable" in theory luciash: 6.2 xavi: I don't even dare to test trunk for any serious stuff luciash: but i tested with utf-8 mails so far only... or iso-8859-2
sorry, gotta finish this translation now... bbl xavi: ok, see you ***: Kissaki has left "Leaving"

help is needed to identify how to fix this (non i18n) string in a template:

it comes from tiki-register.tpl , and it seems that it's not parsed properly (it's not included in language.php files once get_strings.php is run, etc
any smarty guru around to fix the above line? ^

I am ready to drive there - but if the house is empty... fabricius: Ah you r in Boston? sylvieg: lexington fabricius: ok sylvieg: 20mn from the tiki house fabricius: if you have 5 minutes, you might explain me s.th. sylvieg: yeh fabricius: you remember the site search bar ... I did put the sitesearchbar without background picture in the header top right
it should be in or besides the secondary menu
css wise that's ok for the moment - not elegant, but I got there
I would like to take off the word "search" from the standart sitesearchbar and I am looking throughout the tikicode, where that is organised
I guess that is not a css thing, but might have to do s.th with .tpl or so? sylvieg: spmething like .search .btn {display: none;} ? fabricius: or am I completely wrong and it would be an admin thing?
yes, s.th. like that
what does that mean: .search .btn
I am just starting to look into the code stuff
trying to learn to read the code and trying first mini mini mini adjustments ;-) sylvieg: when you want to hide some part on a tpl - an easy solution is to hide blocks with css
the class for the search bar is .search
the class for the button is .btn
so you say every object of class btn that is in an object of class search will be hidden fabricius: ah - css or smarty thought? sylvieg: you can solve both way fabricius: what I do not want to have displayed is just the word "search" left of the input field ... the field and the "go" button should be visible sylvieg: but the css is more local than a tpl and easy to do the upgrade fabricius: understand ***: rodrigo_sampaio has joined #tikiwiki sylvieg: hi rodrigo_sampaio: is Daniel arrived? fabricius: better do it in one css file, than to do in several files and to have to take care at every update rodrigo_sampaio: sylvieg: you mean if he arrived in boston?
