Is there a tutorial anywhere that goes through the entire process of creating an app from start to finish? I'm finding the documentation to be very poor.

I have created a custom field in database of type Upload (Allow multiple). I would like to display uploaded images in the Lightbox widget. In the description of Display custom field is stated: If using mulitple uploads, $value is an array of File Objects. However it seems to be an array of strings and not File Objects, as this code fails: Error: Call to a member function thumbnail() on string (0)

I created a new type of profile field but I can't seem to find how to use my own template as it doesn't has a class on form helper due to that in CustomField model: /** * Build Form Helper * * @param mixed $value The value * @param callback $customValidationCode Custom validation code * @return \IPS\Helpers\Form\FormAbstract */ public function buildHelper( $value=NULL, $customValidationCode=NULL ) { $class = '\IPS\Helpers\Form\\' . $this->type; /* Hooks can add custom field types which are stored in the database.

I have a \IPS\Content\Item class that implements \IPS\Content\Searchable. I've successfully gotten it to display arbitrary content in the search snippet in expanded view: I have not, however, succeeded in getting anything in condensed view. Other content items have a "user posted a ___ in ___", but mine shows nothing: When I look at the other applications shown in this picture, this isn't stored in the snippet template. As far as I can tell, something's displaying the language item "x_created_(class)" or "x_created_(class)_in" here, but I don't know how to tell the system to do so for my content item. Simply making sure those language items exist isn…

Hello, system/Task/Task.php if ( method_exists( $extensions[ $key ], 'preQueueData' ) ) { $class = new $extensions[ $key ]; $data = $class->preQueueData( $data ); if ( $data === NULL ) { return; } } Based on DocBlock the method preQueueData() should return an array /** * Parse data before queuing * * @param array $data * @return array */ public function preQueueData( $data ) Ok. You allow to return NULL as you do in some background tasks. But a queue will not be run (added into core_queue table) and the method postComplete() will not be executed. Examples - applications/core/extensions/core/Queue/Re…

I'm having a really frustrating experience with this "CSS selector" feature. I'm simply trying to disable the "Show results" button in polls. I can successfully control other elements of the poll's rendering, but anything "deep" doesn't seem to be targetable. I've tried the built in picker. I've tried manual selectors. I've verified in a browser that they select one and only one correct element. It simply doesn't do anything. What am I not understanding? Example #1: Replacing the entire pollcontents works div.ipsPad.ipsClearfix[data-role='pollContents'] Correct: Example #2: div.ipsPad.ipsClearfix[data-role='pollContents'] ol.ipsList…

Everytime I update (since 4.4.6) it resets the default_theme on init.php: // Default theme ID // It isn't really possible to change this but we have it defined as a constant rather // than putting "1" everywhere in the code just in case. If you deleted theme ID 1 and attempt to // build a custom application as a developer, you may need to override this value to specify a new // default/unmodified theme. 'DEFAULT_THEME_ID' => 1, I'm already on theme ID 44 due to that and I have to edit it everytime I update the board.

It will certainly be my fault but I waste a lot of time to find the issues that are reported to me by whoops. In this case for example I have a warning generated in the FormAbstract.php that had never happened to me: // from: /Users/sviluppo/Documents/sites/44x.test/system/Helpers/Form/FormAbstract.php THIS IS THE ERROR: "var_dump(): Property access is not allowed yet" full stack report also a file in my app but with no comments. // from: /Users/sviluppo/Documents/sites/44x.test/system/Dispatcher/Controller.php Any advices on what and where to look?

I came over this by accident and not really sure what problems it'll cause, if any. But something seems very wrong to me, unless I'm missing something. The reason I came over it is because on this community we've never used the archive posts feature, and so I was investigating whether I could just delete the task for the \IPS\forums\Topic\ArchivedPost class. Which I at first ended up concluding I can do in theory, but then I discovered it actually changes values for rows in the reputation index anyway, even when the rows in question have already been changed for the queue task for the IPS\forums\Topic\Post-class. When upgrading from 3.4 to 4.4 you kick off tw…

The exception above has been recently reported to me, it can occur when using \IPS\Member\Group::groups() in tasks executed by cron. In \IPS\Member\Group::getStore() i found the following code: if ( !isset( \IPS\Data\Store::i()->groups ) ) { \IPS\Data\Store::i()->groups = iterator_to_array( \IPS\Db::i()->select( 'core_groups.*', 'core_groups', NULL, 'core_sys_lang_words.word_custom' )->join( 'core_sys_lang_words', array( "lang_id=?

In background tasks and upgrade tasks you generally seem to like updating the database even though the values you'd like to update is the same. I can understand that this might make sense to do in some circumstances, but in cases where it's not much extra work to check if it's the same values, it could speed up the execution of background tasks and upgrade processes quite a bit. As an example of a background task that I saw benefit from this is: applications/forums/extensions/core/Queue/TopicStarterIds.php In the majority of cases the initial value will be correct, so it doesn't make sense to spend time updating every row. As an added note: t…

There was a thread saying we should not copy large part of the IPS core code. I agree, I do not like to copy something that already exists. I have asked several times before but have not get any answer. That's why I try again here. Is there any default templates we can use to output to the frontend: category nodes to browse through content items to browse through content item including moderation functions, report, follow buttons and so on. comments for the content item reviews for the content item I just need Yes/No answer for each list item above. And if Yes then what template to use. If No, then it would mean I have to copy large…

Hi, I only found one reference to TypeScript in the forums. I assume TypeScript is not supported or unpopular? I would like to port a complex Swift iPhone app ( https://www.PsychologyByNumber.com ) to a web-based application to support non-iPhone devices. The Javascript language is too simplistic. I need true class inheritance and Swift-like enum support. How have you solved around this problem? Thanks, Mike

Hi, I'm going through the upgrade code for 3.4 -> 4.x. In applications/core/setup/upg_40000/upgrade.php I found what appears to be an unused variable. Around line 2410 you have the following code: <?php if( \is_array( $data ) AND $_decoded ) { $newPoll = array(); foreach( $data as $_key => $_data ) { if( isset( $_data['question'] ) ) { $data[ $_key ]['question'] = utf8_encode( $_data['question'] ); if( \is_array( $_data['choice'] ) ) { foreach( $_data['choice'] as $_idx => $_choice ) { $data[ $_key ]['choice'][ $_idx ] = utf8_encode( $_choice )…
