Hello all!

We've just released v1.23 with some new features and many improvements and bug fixes.

Some of the new features include:
- Admin Design: Changed admin menu design to have left navigation menu
- CSS Stylesheet: Made huge improvements to program CSS stylesheet making it easier to re-style and change colors
- Languages: Added Portuguese translations (thanks to jamtc in the forums)
- WYSIWYG: Upgraded tinyMCE to version 3.2.0.2 (2008-10-02)
- Program Urls: Help Url and Website Url can now contain PHP code (to specify values on per user basis, for example)
- Usability: If a user is one allowed to edit one record in a section they are redirected straight to edit page (instead of list page).

This is a screenshot of the new admin.

Increasing the width of the admin is now simply to do by just changing the ui.css file.
#main > DIV { width: 690px; }

Hello,

I have a problem with the modal window since the button Add Field.

For example :
Admin > Section Editors > realty_homepage (Add Field)

I use a resolution of 1024 (and IE7) and the buttons (Save, Save & Copy...) are not accessible.

I do not have a problem if I use the modal window with the link modify.

You can help me to solve this problem ?

Thanks,

Djulia

Hi Djulia,

This is fixed for the next version, here's the fix if you'd like to apply it now.

- Open /lib/menus/admin/editTable_functions.js
- Save a backup of this file
- Search for: function addField
- Replace this:

function addField() {
var tableName = $('#tableName').val();
var fieldname = '';
var thickboxUrl = "?menu=database&action=editTable&addField=1&tableName=" +tableName+ "&fieldname=" +fieldname
+ "&TB_iframe=true&height=600&width=700&modal=true";

tb_show(null, thickboxUrl, false); // code reference: http://jquery.com/demo/thickbox/thickbox-code/thickbox.js
}

With this:

//
function addField() {

// set iframe height
var iframeHeight = 600;
var windowHeight = document.documentElement.clientHeight;
if (windowHeight > 0) { iframeHeight = parseInt(windowHeight * 0.80); }
if (iframeHeight < 200) { iframeHeight = 200; }
if (iframeHeight > 600) { iframeHeight = 600; }

// get url
var tablename = $('#tableName').val();
var fieldname = '';
var url = "?menu=database&action=editTable&addField=1"
+ "&tableName=" +tablename
+ "&fieldname=" +fieldname
+ "&TB_iframe=true&width=700&height=" + iframeHeight
+ "&modal=true";

// show thickbox
var caption = null;
var imageGroup = false;
tb_show(caption, url, imageGroup);
}

Let me know if that fixes it for you.

Hi Dave,

Thanks, it is perfect ! [:)]

I have another suggestion.

In the editor ( Capture1.gif ), it is possible to have the link "modify" of the Section Editors ( Capture2.gif ) ?

For example : if in Admin > User Accounts


Admin Access == Yes


Then, it would be possible to reach directly the function editTable.

In the Select for example ( Capture3.gif ) ?

Your opinion ?

Thanks,

Djulia

We want to be careful to keep the interface simple and clean. So I want to give it some more thought before we add more links or options:

Here's how to do it yourself, though. You can add a link just below the section name after </h2>:

</h2>
<?php if ($CURRENT_USER['isAdmin']): ?>
Admin:
<a href="?menu=database&action=editTable&tableName=<?php echo $tableName ?>" >Edit Section</a>
<?php endif ?>

This will show:

Your Section Name
Admin: Edit Section

Hope that helps!

P.s. : I added it in /lib/menus/default/list.php

Hi Dave,

I have a JavaScript error with the use of the function Add New Editor (in Section Editors).

JavaScript - ...admin.php?menu=database&action=addTable&
Event thread: keyup
Error:
name: ReferenceError
message: Statement on line 1: Undefined variable: autoFillTableName
Backtrace:
Line 1 of function script
autoFillTableName()
...
stacktrace: n/a; see 'opera:config#UserPrefs|Exceptions Have Stacktrace
You have an idea ?

Thanks for your assistance.

Djulia

P.s. :

It is also pleasant for me to exchange with you. But, it is sometimes tedious that my English is not better. I cannot always express as I would like it.
