Hi Folks,

I'd like to hear some opinions of some experienced CI users.
I have to develop a file up-/downloading system with the following requirements:

- admin can add clients, projects and possibly subprojects (multiple projects for 1 client)
- clients can log in and see/download files that were uploaded for them (by
admin)
- clients can upload files into an selectable project (project must be assigned to customer, of course)
- clients and admin can write comments on uploaded files
- client gets notified by e-mail when admin uploads new file/writes new comment
- admin gets notified by e-mail when client uploads new file/writes new comment

I've already done a little, less complex, file uploading script in CodeIgniter using freak_auth for authentication and was quite satisfied with it. Just haven't really used models yet, that was rather dirty, I guess.

Now, I got attracted by cakePHP for it's built-in authentication. The documentation of cake seems bad compared to CI, though. Also Cake doesn't have a built-in upload helper class.

CakePHP on the other side doesn't seem to offer any helpers for file
uploads, which CI does.

I know, it's kinda stupid to ask inside the CI forums if you'd prefer some other framework over CI. I'd be just glad if someone would convince me, CI is the tool of the trade to get this thing well done


Talking 'bout freak_auth: Is this great class still being activly developed? It's been a while since the last time it got updated, so I'm just wondering...

Regards,
Daniel

I have a shop that sells digital goods. You pay your money, you can download your product instantly.

Trouble is, i have recently had a few people buy who have used cloned / stolen credit cards. The credit card is accepted by the payment processor and tells my shop that all is well, so the shop releases access to the product.

A few hours later the person who's credit card it is notifies the payment processor that the transaction was fraudulent and i refund their money, but obviously someone else has got my product that i can't get back or trace who has it.

I'm wondering if i should put a 10 (or more) hour delay between people paying and actually delivering their product. This would be a shame as i would like it to be available to the purchaser as soon as they have paid.

Does anyone have any experience of this or any advice they could slip my way?

I use the following plugins:
1:adodb 5 (which can connect more than one database ,though the db type is different.)
2:fckeditor 2.6 (which can allow you create a editor,strong and easy...)
4:enable $_GET (because CI disable $_GET,but when you get data from another website which use get...,now you can GET...)
5:Smarty 2.6 (option)
...
Is it useful ?

I'm a bit discouraged to continue making my product. There is one called Bamboo Invoice that's open source. I wanted to make one to sell, but why wouldn't someone use one that's free?

I was going to have PayPal, etc. integrated in to it. What are your thoughts?

Hello all

I'm fairly new for Codeigniter, I'm mid-experianced PHP and Java developer. Using eclipse-PDT. Not used any framework before.

I saw Webnode.com yesterday. They are created a site builder service. You can join and create a website, very simple. You can use you name as subdomain. (username.webnode.com like ) Editor panel using ajax, very smooth. I think this is using Extjs or Jquery.

So Anyone can explain me, what is behind this website, I'm planning to do like this service

Can CI handle ? and Jquery. Also they got a backbone for domain register, email service and webstats. How they do this webware, any thoughts ?

I have ported Modular Extensions to run PHP5 only.

It is still 100% compatible with CodeIgniter.

Please let me know if you would like to test drive this new version.

Thanks for your interest.

EDIT: 11-19-2008

Modular Extensions 5.2 is now available for download from the wiki.

Click here -> Modular Extensions HMVC

EDIT: 10-15-2009

Modular Extensions PHP5 is also available via svn from google code.

Hi
im getting a the parse error, syntax error, unexpected ';' and i cant see it (i can't see any semi-colons at all? )
ANYHOW here's the code

I tend to use integers to store stuff like options in the DB. For example:

$brand[0] = 'Chevrolet';
$brand[1] = 'Buick';
$brand[2] = 'Ford';

To store a carbrand I may store '2', which corresponds with 'Ford' etc. And to echo the brandname I do $brand[$result_from_db].

Pretty straight forward stuff and it works fine, but when looking at raw data in the database it doesn't make any sense, you only see integers and you don't know what they mean, unless you have the conversion table next to you. It would make far more sense if the data was stored as a string, but does it matter how you store it performance wise?
