I thought it might be a good idea to post some of our most helpful hints for using the CodeIgniter framework:

Hint 1
-------
I prefer to move the application directory out of the CI system directory for three reasons:

1. Upgrading the CI Core doesn't destroy my application configuration.
2. During development its easier to find my stuff and ignore the CI Core files.
3. CI works ok like this with no modifications.

(IMO Ellislab should take note here and change this!)
No other developers recommend you put application files in the system directory.

Hint 2
-------
Create an autoloaded application.php config file and use it to override the default CI config settings plus add your own custom settings.

This idea would work especially well if you create two config files using one for development server settings and the other for your production server settings.

The only file you need to change is the autoload.php config file setting, and again CI upgrades won't overwrite your custom files.

Hi there,

Hi,

I am not sure if this is possible. I need to be able to read a value from a custom library from a hook in CodeIgniter 1.6.0

This is what my code do at the moment:

Custom library 'abc' is loaded and initialized by controller 'def'. The values that initialized by Controller 'def' need to be accessed by a 'post_controller' hook.

I have tried to use something like this in my hook:

Hi all,

I hope someone can point me in the right direction.

I have a searchform from which the result is send to the search-controller

I use a model to do a query and i also use paging to page the query result.

For page 1 all works fine (it uses the values of $this->input->post('field'))

When I click on page 2 in the paging, I got all the records of the table in the database, since my post-values from the original form are gone.

Is there an example i can use to find a solution ?

Controller:

$this->membermodel->sex = $this->input->post('sexsearch');
$this->membermodel->sexsearch = $this->input->post('sex');
$this->membermodel->relationtype = $this->input->post('relationtype');

$result = $this->membermodel->get($config[’per_page’],$this->uri->segment(4));

$this->load->library('pagination');

if($this->uri->segment(3) == '') $offset = 0;
else $offset = $this->uri->segment(3);

$limit = 4;
$offset*= $limit;

$this->load->library('pagination');

$config['uri_segment'] = $this->uri->segment(3);
$config['base_url'] = site_url('/search/result/');
$config['total_rows'] = $result['numrows'];
$config['per_page'] = $limit;
$config['num_links'] = 10;
$config['full_tag_open'] = '<p>';
$config['full_tag_close'] = '</p>';

$this->pagination->initialize($config);

$data['paging'] = $this->pagination->create_links();

Model:

function Membermodel()
{
// Call the Model constructor
parent::Model();
}


function get($limit, $offset) {

// BEGIN FILTER CRITERIA CHECK
// If any of the following properties are set before mdl_contacts->get() is called from the controller then we will include
// a where statement for each of the properties that have been set.
if ($this->id) {
$this->db->where("id", $this->id);
}

if ($this->pc) {
$this->db->where("pc", $this->pc);
}

if ($this->location) {
$this->db->where("location", $this->location);
}

if ($this->lang) {
$this->db->where("lang", $this->lang);
}

if ($this->burstaat) {
$this->db->where("burstaat", $this->burstaat);
}

if ($this->sexsearch) {
$this->db->where("sexsearch", $this->sexsearch);
}

if ($this->relationtype) {
$this->db->where("relationtype", $this->relationtype);
}

if ($this->hobbies) {
$this->db->where("hobbies", $this->hobbies);
}
// END FILTER CRITERIA CHECK

// We will display our results in order by last name and then first name.
$this->db->orderby("username");

// This will execute the query and collect the results and other properties of the query into an object.
$this->db->limit($limit,$offset);

$query = $this->db->get("member",$limit,$offset);

$result['numrows'] = $query->num_rows();
$result['query'] = $query->result;

return $result;
}

Thnx,

Peter

I'm starting to roll my first CI application using 1.6.0 - it's a simple CMS for my personal site. What I would like to do is this (code shortened for berevity):

Hello everybody,
I am looking for around 5-10 people to test the new version of CodeExtinguisher and pick at it. I'm gonna be testing the system over the weekend and hopefully release before next friday.

If you are interested, please send me a private message with your email, and I'll email you the zip of gloriousness.

It would seem that the scaffolding system does not work when placed in a controller that resides in a subfolder within /controllers/

The scaffolding activation code is in the file:

e.g. /controllers/folder/session.php

You'll simply get a 404 error.

If anyone knows of a possible fix or solution, I'd be interested in using it!

Thanks
