BackendPro 0.6.1

[eluser]adamp1[/eluser]
I haven't tested any language solutions with BackendPro, funny thing was BackendPro 0.1 did have language selection built in (I removed it for a reason). It worked what looks like in the same was as Language Selector 2 does.

But I can't help on a current selectors which works.

Language selection in BEP is exactly what I'm currently working on. The road I'm taking is that a user will be able to set his language in his preferences (hence my question about the userid above).

I'm unhappy about the way all the language selection packages work because I don't want to bother with language tags in the URIs.

I only have a few hours a week to work on this project, so progress is very slow. If I'm happy about the way I'm doing it, I will tell you about.

BackendPro used to be so if there was no language value stored in the cache, it would detect the browsers language and use that. If the user over-rode it, either by a selection dropdown or through a preference change then that would be saved to the cache and that used.

It's a pity since that's exactly what I want :-)

Why did you remove this behaviour, if I may ask?

[eluser]adamp1[/eluser]
I can't remember it was a year ago, my god that reminds me BackendPro is coming up to its 1st Birthday (22nd of june, the alpha releases don't count I don't think.). I will have a look on my PC when I get home see if the class and code is on the for the language stuff.

Sorry, I still have some newbie issues. I'm slowly coming to terms with the module architecture added by Matchbox. But where do you load the modules' controllers?

I want to separate my code from yours as much as possible and created a new subdirectory in 'modules':

Code:

app_root
  -modules
    -my_app
      -controllers
        -admin
          -my_controller
      -views
        -admin
          -my_view

How can I load the "my_app" module so that I can call the my_controller by typing my_app/admin/my_controller ?

Thanks for your help.

[eluser]adamp1[/eluser]
Just call the admin/my_controller. Controllers will be found, while libraries/models must be loaded with the module_library/module_model code.

library "Page"

Line 35:
var $breadcrumb = array(); // Breadcrumb trail

is not used in class. instead of this, used $breadcrumb_trail

I'm do this:

Code:

if (count($this->page->breadcrumb_trail) > 1) {
    // Then show breadcrumps
}

Still struggling with language setting issues. Now everything works perfectly except that the user has to refresh the page to see the new language in action. I guess I have to reload the language after setting it, but I didn't find how to do it. Here's the controller that sets the language setting:

Code:

function index()
    {
        // If the form was submitted, there's gonna be stuff in $_POST
        // maybe we need to make this a little bit more secure...
        
        // Language change
        if(array_key_exists('lang',$_POST))
        {
            // Fetch the new language setting
            $update_data = array('lang' => $_POST['lang']);
            
            // Put the new language setting in the session parameters
            $this->session->set_userdata($update_data);
            
            // ... and store it in the database
            $this->db->where('user_id',$this->session->userdata('id'));
            $this->db->update($this->config->item('backendpro_table_prefix').'user_profiles', $update_data);
            flashMsg('success',$this->lang->line('meetomatic_preferences_saved'));
            
            // Too bad the new language will not be applied until the user reloads.
            // The lines below seem to have no effect. I'm probably missing something...
            $this->config->set_item('language', $_POST['lang']);
            $this->lang->load('backendpro');
            $this->lang->load('meetomatic');
            
        }

Can you help me out with this? Thanks tremendously!

50% of the time I go to login to BackendPro I get the login box duplicated on the same page. Since when I type in one box that text shows up in the identical box below, and when I look in source there's only 1 form, I'm guessing it's a javascript issue. I'm using Firefox 3.0.11 (Chrome and IE don't have the problem)

Running BackendPro 5.1, CI 1.7
I've attached a screenshot.

Ps. Love what I've seen of BackendPro so far.
