When I delete a Page database via ACP, then the table for the records is just dropped: /* Delete records */ \IPS\Db::i()->dropTable( 'cms_custom_database_' . $this->id, TRUE ); There is no handling for record images stored in the record_image column. The files are never deleted and are orphaned in /uploads forever.

This was also brought up in the following topic, but there was no answer from IPS there and I do believe it is solvable: In almost all places where Item::$containerNodeClass is used, there is an isset test before accessing it and graceful fallback when it's not present. However, that check is missing in a few places that affect following and tagging. For followable: \IPS\core\Followed\Table:99 - this join should actually be within the preceding if statement (since I believe it only makes sense when permissions are used) core/front/table/tables/rows.phtml:104 - the if should also check that method_exists, as it the pattern everywhere else (but this i…

I want to create a new theme, but creating a new theme in Customization>Theme has limitations for working on DB, classes, custom forms, and so on. But in app development, you can overwrite the classes and the theme and you are free to work with everything. Is it common way to create a theme using app development? what is your suggestion?

When a user goes to the store they can change the currency using this widget: How can I change it programmatically? I figured it's not a database setting as if I set the currency in one browser, it goes back to the default in a different browser. I also don't see any cookies about currency setting. Is it using $_SESSIONs? I just want to be able to manually change from the default currency if the user is from the U.K. for example.

Due to financial constraints my organization cannot support a self hosted option but I am still looking to develop additional features for our instance. Any advice on good ways to go about this? Right now I am using custom blocks but this requires a terrible conflation of HTML/CSS/JS into one file which is less than ideal. Another issue is there doesn't appear to be any way to utilize BE & FE code for one feature as custom blocks make you utilize just PHP or HTML. Is there a way to utilize ENV variable to hide my API keys in the custom blocks I make? I know this is a broad question and the answer may just be that I am SOL but I wanted to check in with all of you …

When an ips.ui.editor instance is destroyed, you are following the answer from a Stack Overflow question and trying to manually destroy the CKE instance. Unfortunately, that manual destruction is not sufficient, and is leaving references to the editor and behaviour. Take ipsautosave as an example (and maybe the only example, I've not looked further) - it maintains a reference to `editor`, and runs autosave on it every two seconds. It attaches a `destroy` event handler, which would be triggered when calling editor.destroy(), to cancel the timeout and therefore release the editor reference, but because you never trigger the destroy event it's not sufficient. (I'm noticing t…

I've developed an app and for the new version, I created a version (for example 1.1.0) and the corresponding query (creating a new table). When I try to upload a new version, everything goes well, but the query (create table) does not run.

When in Developer mode, if I upload a plug-in, the developer (Dev directory) files are created (Manual upload), however the css files are created in the css folder. However, the CSS styles can be found in the theme ACP. Also, I have found that sometimes the version files in setup don't always get created either on install..

I'm not totally sure about this, but will say anyway. I got Gallery and Blogs disabled on my live board. After upgrade to 4.5.4.1 yesterday, they got locked because they remained in 4.5.4: Now I have to downlload the package and upload both apps. I tested the upgrade on my dev board and worked fine because no app was disabled. As I said, not sure it is the cause. Just to let you know.

I submitted this as feedback last week, but it looks to be a bug. In any case you currently have javascript related to this behaviour that doesn't do anything in your default theme. In version 4.4, this was the HTML for the share link on posts in html/forums/front/topics/post.phtml: {{if $comment->mapped('first') }} <li><a class='ipsType_blendLinks' href='{$comment->item()->url()}' data-ipsTooltip title='{lang="share_this_post"}' data-ipsMenu data-ipsMenu-closeOnClick='false' id='elSharePost_{$comment->$idField}' data-role='shareComment'><i class='fa fa-share-alt'></i></a></li> {{else}} <li><a class='ip…

I couldn't figure out from reading this article: I created a simple dropdown menu using this format: <!-- The trigger --> <a href='#elMyMenu_menu' id='elMyMenu' data-ipsMenu>Open Menu</a> <!-- The menu --> <ul id='elMyMenu_menu' class='ipsMenu'> ... </ul> But I want to be able the listen to open and close events. How can I create an event listener using ips.ui.menu? As a side note, a lot of these articles lack an actual example which would save people from having to post to the forum.

Hi, I've created a template hook for a plugin. Everything is ok when I'm in developer mode(IN_DEV = TRUE) but in production mode(IN_DEV = FALSE), I get this error : [[Template core/front/global/navBar is throwing an error. This theme may be out of date. Run the support tool in the AdminCP to restore the default theme.]]

PHP 8.0.0 has been released. Some bugs that I've found in a couple of minutes of testing: There are a bunch of deprecation warnings for required parameters following optional parameters - from my search with the regex function\s*\w+\s*\([^=)]*=[^)]*,\s*\$[^,)=]*[,)] there are 47 instances of this in the suite. It should be safe to remove all of the offending default parameters, since they can never be utilised. The cms lang key can_edit_item_message_record is invalid - it contains %S rather than %s, which causes the page to (randomly?) 500. Fatal error: Cannot make static method XMLReader::open() non static in class IPS\Xml\_XMLReader in .../system/…

Having trouble finding this in the documentation - where can we adjust the task frequency? unlockmembers is set to run once an hour, while the lockout default is 15 minutes. Turns out, some folks sit there and wait!
