Refresh & no expiration cookie

2013-05-21T11:04:16-05:00

Hello all!
I have created a codeigniter + bootstrap + ion auth web app. Now I have to show a part of this web app into a monitor. The page shown is refreshed every 2 minutes. However to view this page I have to enter username and password.
How can I update the session cookie so that it never expires?
There are other methods?

Thanks for your help!!!

Google Analytics - help!
2013-05-21T10:09:09-05:00
Hi all.

This is my first post on the forum, and I’m hoping to receive quick helping hand from someone about implementing Google Analytics tracking in a CodeIgniter website.

Basically, we had our website developed in CodeIgniter and our developers had forgotten to implement the Google Analytics tracking.  Being relatively comfortable with editing a few lines of PHP, I figured this can’t be too difficult.  However, finding a plethora of topics on implementing hooks and redirects and access rights has made me too scared to touch anything.

Would someone please help illustrate to me where I should paste the Google Analytics tracking script (e.g. in the header.php file, which is called for every page, or in a separate PHP file as Google suggests - but where do I link it?)

Any advice would be greatly apprecaited.  Thanks everyone

How can I get active records NOT to add single quotes to int values?
2013-05-20T18:42:43-05:00

$this->db->select('products_table.id, code, class, category, status, price, production_date, products_status.title AS STATUS');
$this->db->from('products_table');
$this->db->join('products_status', 'products_status.id = products_table.status');
//$this->db->order_by('products_table.id');
$this->db->where('products_table.id >', $record_start);
$this->db->where($data);
$this->db->limit(10);
$query = $this->db->get(); 

The code above creates the query below. The type of the column class is INT but it adds the single quotes and I don’t want single quotes for type INT in MySql. How can I stop active records to add single quotes to int columns?

Thanks


SELECT `products_table`.`id`,
       `code`,
       `class`,
       `category`,
       `status`,
       `price`,
       `production_date`,
       `products_status`.`title` AS STATUS
FROM   products_table
       JOIN `products_status`
         ON `products_status`.`id` = `products_table`.`status`
WHERE  `products_table`.`id` > 0
       AND `class` = '2'
LIMIT  10 




Most complete syntax highlighting for ExpressionEngine now available
2013-05-22T00:18:04-05:00
I’ve just finished an overhaul of syntax highlighting for ExpressionEngine code in the Sublime Text editor. I believe this is now the most detailed syntax highlighter available for EE at this point:

   https://github.com/fcgrx/ExpressionEngine2-Sublime-Text-3-Bundle

If you’ve already got Sublime Text, just disable any previous EE package, and then add and install the above repository.

You may find that your color theme is not comprehensive enough to display the full level of detail available with this setup. The readme includes more detail on that.

I’d appreciate feedback on this.


A PHP Error was encountered in simple commerce.

In admin control panel, by click “Add purchase”, a PHP Error was encountered.

Relationship List with headers
2013-05-21T22:45:06-05:00
Hey Everyone,

I’m struggling a bit trying to create a list of entries with relationships.

My client is a home developer and they would like a list of their communities that are separated by the quadrant they exist in. For example:

North West

 Community Name

 Community Name


South

 Community Name

West

 Community Name

I’m not having any issues creating list. The problem I’m having is: when there isn’t a community related to a quadrant I don’t want the Quadrant title to show and I’m finding it difficult to find a solution. 

Here is a sample of my code:


{exp:channel:entries channel="quadrants" site="home"}
  {if parents:no_results}
    <h2>{quadrant_title}</h2>
  {/if}
  {parents field="quadrant"}
    <a href="{path=communities/details/{parents:url_title}}">{parents:community_title}</a><br>
   {/parents}
{/exp:channel:entries} 



Right now the conditional is showing all Quadrant titles that currently don’t have a community attached and I would like it to do the opposite.

I realize this is probably pretty simple but I’ve been banging my head against it for too long now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks All!


CI is ignoring what I sent the index page to
2013-05-21T20:10:57-05:00
In config.php I made it so my index page should be local_index.php


|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Index File
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Typically this will be your index.php file, unless you've renamed it to
| something else. If you are using mod_rewrite to remove the page set this
| variable so that it is blank.
|
*/ 
$config['index_page'] = 'local_index.php'; 



It’s still loading index.php Any ideas as to why?

 


Rich Text Editor - line breaks disappear
2012-05-17T06:58:01-05:00
I just tried the new Rich Text Editor of ExpressionEngine, but somehow all line breaks (br) disappear on te front-end of the web site. Paragraphs are working fine.

When I click view code in the publish-form, I can see all br’s and p’s looking good. When I view the output HTML on the site, all br-tags seem to be removed.

Any idea what could cause this?
