Although I couldn't do much PostNuke these days, I managed to grab my ticket to the pnMeeting in Leonberg, Germany this weekend.
See you there.

See you there.

Hi all,
Just a quick note to warn that I'm totally off the chart since a few weeks (month ?) as I have way too much on my mind between investors filling the accounts, problems with an old associate, work, personal, sleepless nights, etc., etc......
blablabla...
Oh... and blabla....
... and the temperature is killing me...
and finally... blah !
Can't give more, too boring... I hope things will cool down soon. I still hope to catch a plane for the pnmeeting but even that decision is postpone until things clear out a little.
In the meantime, drink lots of water...and..
Have fun !

Quick reminder that it is totally useless to put an invalid email... you are suppose to receive a first email telling you that your registration is pending. If that email comes back to me as invalid...
..... well.... what do you expect ? DENIED !!
Will, Please try again without the no spam stuff.
For the others, you don't have to worry, I never send email to my members and unless I'm offered a million dollars, I won't give your email to anyone. The only emails you'll receive are notifications from the forum or things like that.
So be in peace, pnConcept is not a spam source.
In fact, I don't care a tiny bit of your email... but if you want your password... up to you.
;-)
On another subject, sorry I've been long lately... Mucho things happening in real life.

Found a few issues, the most important one being that the permission check in the administration had a typo. So it is important that you at least take a new pnadmin.php either from this package or from my NOC project SVN.

Although I made a simple parser that transforms the doku syntax to wikka syntax, the structure of Doku is not making things easy to import. Doku uses a file system structure for the content that can go deep, it also can have many pages with the same name.
One solution could be to join folder names with their pages but that could result in something like this (taken from pn-cms.de)
entwickler_module_example or something similar.
Not very cute...
So for the moment and for the limited time I can put in this, I'll make sure the pnWikka mod is stable enough and I'll see later for the best approach on this... if someone did not found something before me.

Many noticed my personal project pnWikka.
To answer most of the question you may have, I'm inviting you to take a look at it, as it says on the front page, I sniffed (with the authors permission of course) many pages from the original site about the module itself.
But to answer some people asking me some question that they may not have found in the documentation, here it goes.
Does pnWikka saves the revisions in the DB ? Yes it does save the pages and revisions in the DB, not in files. It is apparently a point that many finds important so now you know.
Is it templated ? Yes, for the most part. While working on pnWikka, it went fast on the fork road instead of a wrap up (like the pn-cms Doku module for example) because of the nature of the Wikkawiki. (Hardcoded).
It is not 100% templated yet but I would say it is 90% templated.
Is it Multilingual ? Yes but again, there are issues. For example, the word "Category" is a keyword telling to the Wikka script (and pnWikka) that it's a category or that the page is part of a category. You can see the documentation about that [ HERE ].
I will later on work on the module so that the category keyword can be set for a definite language. I'm not into it yet and I'm still not sure how I will pull that up. But for the most part of the module, most if not all language related text has been pull out of the code (Wikkawiki is hardcoded) and language files were created.
Will you be able to import data from another wiki ? I hope. When initialising the module, pnWikka will check if you have a stand alone Wikka wiki (wikka prefix for the tables). If so, it will ask you if you want to import the pages and revisions from you Wikka. If your Wikka is not detected (different table prefix), you'll be able to give the prefix so that pnWikka can try to import your data.
I am also working on a script to import pages from a Doku wiki. I don't know if I'll finish it before opening testing of the pnWikka but rest assure that it's in the plans.
As for other wikis, for the moment, there is no plan yet. Maybe it won't come from me... it all depends of the difficulty and the time I have. For the moment, I'm putting my efforts on the stand alone Wikka and Doku.
As for the rest... feel free to ask or... Wait and see ! ;)
Why Wikka ? Why not ? The Wikka wiki had all I need for a simple wiki and it did not had all the annoying flaws of the pnWiki (written in pnHTML and looked like it was never finished) and I'm a sober guy... So I'm not really interested in most wikis having all sort of gadgets and colorful stuff. I only wanted a wiki. Wikka was simple enough to work with from the code perspective and it was easier to see it become a module for PostNuke than many others out there.
As there are a zillion wikis, some better, some not, one must stop and choose something. I was tired of testing and I liked Wikka. So Wikka I chose. I am totally aware that some other wikis can be better than Wikka... but when I started on pnWikka... I felt no regret. ;)
ETA ? Nope... ;)

pnTiX_Archives is simply a complete rewrite of the old Trollix News Archives module. It doesn't have all the little things from the original but it does the job. It works with or without EZComments for the comments count and ordering.

Note: Also: New plugins were added on the plugins page. Didn't saw them until today so sorry for the delay. ;)

I'm sorry for not being there very much since a couple of weeks (or month). I am currently completly overloaded with work on the pro area and overloaded in the personal area...
I hope to catch up soon because many things are going fast underground and I can only take little glimpse here and then but that's all.
I also know that some of you wrote to me recently (contact mail, skype, etc.) and I may have not answered. Please be assured that ignoring you may have been intentional but only for the sake of priorities and not because I didn't want to answer you.
So again... sorry. Things will get better soon.
Until then... Have fun ! ;-)

The PostNuke 0.761 has a little thing with blocks coded in old and new style at the same time... the pncUserPoints block was one of them.
What you must do :
Go to your Blocks administration and remove the pncUP block by clicking on the Delete link for this line.
Grab the fix [ HERE ] and replace the pncupblock that you have in your modules/pncUserPoints/pnblocks folder.
Still in your Blocks administration, click on the New block link, you'll find the pncUserPoints block... add it and set it as you like or as it was before...
It should work correctly after that. ;-)

As some probably already saw, I transfered my pncvs mod to PostNuke.com
[ Link ]
As it was once used and may be used to create official packages in the future, it was also a more appropriate place (the official website) to host the thing.
The pnCVS that is here will be redirecting you to its new home when I'll have the time to modify it.
Note: Quick note to the one that doesn't like what I sometimes say on pnConcept, this action was not because of what you think I should put on my site and be warned that I do whatever I want with my site. Like it or not... ;) (No, this was not for you Mac he he)

Made the various pncvs builds into a module for more overall accessibility on pnConcept .
Available nightly builds are :
[ PostNuke 0.760 ]
[ PostNuke 0.760eng ] (English package)
[ PostNuke 0.800 ]
[ PostNuke 0.800eng ] (English package)
[ PostNuke pnForum ]
Enjoy and have fun testing !
C !
Note: Remember that these packages are unsupported and are only for testing purpose. - pnForum 20050912 was a little late as Sourceforge... is a pain.

How does it look ?
This is the theme I will probably use for some time. This is a Xanthia conversion of a Wordpress theme called Flex.
It was originally created by Phu Ly
That was for the credits.
I know there migh still be little problems (like the pncUserPoints who isn't handling it very well). If you see other major errors, tell so.
Note: This theme will be release soon... The time I debug on pnConcept. DAMN IE !!!

Using a heavily modified pnModuleStatus (See link on the left), it gave me the opportunity to do a minor update on the advProfile
The only modification is a new plugin that will show in the administration if the module is up to date or if there is a new release. (People having the 2.0 won't have this information of course).
When a new release is available, the plugin will show you the level of the update : low - medium - urgent and a little message of what is new in it.
The plugin contact pnConcept to fetch this information and the only information given is the module's name and the version. NOTHING ELSE ! You do not have to worry about personal information.
If you don't want your module to contact pnConcept, all you have to do is remove the plugin call in the main admin template.

Well... I had quite a wild period these last weeks and I am now officially in vacations for 26 days.
Aside 8 days on a beach trying to darken my Javel-like skin...
I'll try to catch up with many things I couldn't answer in the last weeks...
That means you MaSSive for wich I already told that I wouldn't be able to do all you need but I'll be able to do a part or help for the future of what you asked to make it easier to the one who would follow.
That means the pnCareers (old phPro mod) that I'm slowly converting to the pnRender...
That means (that is for the french people who doesn't seem to care) also rebuilding PostNuke-France.org.
Traduction : Cela veut aussi dire (pour le peu de franco que ça intéresse) la reconstruction de PostNuke-France. C'est en cours malgré......... je n'en dirai pas plus...
And finally, I have many things like my own Wiki I called pnWikka... It is a fork based on the Wikka ( WikkaWiki ) - pnRender, templated.
Along the porting of the pncUserPoints to the pnRender, the pnGroups block pack (that I forgot at the office... sigh - will have to go get them), the pncIPN, etc... etc.........
Pfiouu....... Do I really have some time off in the end ?
Have a nice August.

Because of some people flooding all postnuke sites registering for nothing and only adding their website to their profile, I did a quick hack to moderate registration...
You now need to add a VALID REASON to register to my site.
And NO - It is NOT the pncUserHack... saw you coming on that one... he he !
PNConcept is (almost) totally free, downloads are no registration required and you only need to register if you need help or have an opinion on the crap I could say.
Stick to that... or don't register if you don't need to.
Here are the usernames mostly used :
(Adding spaces so the search engines won't get them here)
C a t a l o g u e n
L a y c r e x
K a i S p o r t
L o m a l o h a
P i B i a n c a
K i j v i e w 6 1
K e j f i v e k l o c k o s
I may miss one or 2 but those were the last one... (Do a search on Google on these names, you'll get nice results).
And you polish guys up there (hey not my fault - people mentioned are all apparently polish according to the websites they were registering) using legitimate PostNuke site as your "vitrine"... Get lost ! Cool polish postnuke users are of course welcomed !
Have fun !

pnGroups pre-release as the 0.760 is not out yet.
Remember that this is a 0.760 Required. (Hope that being in bold, that will be clear.

PNConcept is now under the (almost) last 0.760.
Be very careful on step 6 of the manual as yes you must remove all files EXCEPT your third party files (blocks and mods)... All core mods and blocks should go to the recycle bin before uploading the new distribution. But leave the other mods you have in place.
If you find a glitch, please add a comment.

You think you are a master designer ?

pnConcept now has a little place on the NOC : http://noc.postnuke.com/projects/pnconcept/
The main reason I opened this project is because I took a work for wich I know I'll probably need help. I'm not ready yet to expose what it is though so no need to ask what it is.
In the meantime, I'm slowly adding to the cvs little things like some plugins and will soon add some old little mods that served in the past as examples to others.
I won't necessarily send some of my major mods though.
I may also move my downloads to the file release part of the pnc noc project... not sure about that. I usually host my files myself to have a full control and easy access...
Anyway...
So that's it... for today at least.
C !
Note: Added a Blank module to the file release... :)

Let's get this over with...
Ahem... (pshh pshh)...
Now available, the advProfile 2.0
[ DEMO HERE ]
[ GRAB IT HERE ]
[Have a beer HE... Krakooof koff koff.........
C !
Note: I will slowly move all available advP 1.x plugins to the last smarty way advP 2.0 format as time permits it and put a mention to it. If there is no note, the plugin is still a 1.x.

Nothing very new in this release but a few...
All plugins were moved to smarty plugins instead of being roughly loaded even when not needed. (Much less risky)
New set of templates (see the preview link - at this hour, the all page is not yet done)
You can create your own templates in a EZComments way
- In the pntemplates folder is a "default" folder with the modules template (user side).
- Add a folder of your own and select it in the administration, the module will use these templates.
The module use its own stylesheet so be sure to have the modulestylesheet tag in your theme... If your theme is a AT... I guess you also have a tag loading module specific stylesheet.
I did my best to make the template compatible in IE and FF (xhtml)... We'll see if problem arise about that.
Reminder : The advProfile is a display module. It won't do action unless you build some plugins that will do something else than show something.
[ PREVIEW ]
Hope to finish it this week !
Have fun !

Templated pncGroups is done if not almost done. I have build a RC packaged that I sent to Michael Halbrook before any release because it was an old discussion about what to do with both the olds pnGroups and pncGroups.
In the old discussions, I got the work.
If MH is not too upset () about what I sent to him, I will release the module... when the pn 0.760 will be out.
Why ? Because the module is ... yup.... pn 0.760 minimum required. The module was written on a pn0.760 installation and is using some existing functions from the Groups module. The pn0.760 Groups is pnAPI but it's not the case of the older ones So it cannot work on those older ones.
Since I did not upgrade pnConcept yet, I can't show you the preview of it. I'll see if I can put it on PostNuke', CAPTION, 'PostNuke-France');" onmouseout="return nd();">pnFrance...
Cya soon !

Sorry it's late... I couldn't do better, got out of the office at 10pm...
Version 1.1 is [ HERE ]
Go in your Modules administration, regenerate, upgrade, activate (very important - some DB change).
It's 2h30 am so I hope I didn't forget too much.
Check out the templates if you did changes on yours... The username is now in a different place... etc... etc... bla bla bla... too tired to write more.
If any problems, I'll adress them tomorrow after a small nap.

Lots of clean up and the most important change is that the username will not be in the custom field anymore but in the option_selection PayPal variable.
A new field is added to the table. The pnInit should take care of all that.
The mail is sent with the pnMail function instead of being sent directly by the mail function... things like that.
I'll post the changes for the template in the forum if you do not want to replace your template.
Cya later!

WARNING...
My email is still in one of the files... Please hop on this thread [ HERE ] to get a quick fix. That should be the only place... I will revise all the files anyway when I'll be at work.
A good thing I didn't received any debug email yet. He he !

What... you thought I would be late for that one too ??
See the sideblock for the download link, see the previous news for what it is, see the help.txt and the pncPayPal.pdf document in the pndocs folder for various explanations...
Oh, one last minute warning... The Initialisation is not the typical pnInit. It is build for the last Initialise script using adodb dictionnary and blablabla... All pn0.750 should have no problem dealing with this as it was added with the pn0.750 and will be what PostNuke will use in future releases.
But if you have problems with the initialisation, do tell so and I'll revert back to the good old way.
Have fun !
Chestnut !
Note: Be sure to read the pdf guys... Many answers are in there. ;)

Will write a small doc for some Basic Paypal concept like the Token_id and such.
Releasing it tomorrow shouldn't be a big problem.

As I had to move last weekend, I still don't have a decent connection at the new appartment. So sorry if I take long to answer. If you know the french communication system, you'll know how long it can take to have a decent DSL and how expensive on the phone bill the wait can be.
Nevertheless... I should be able to release pncPayPal v1.0 around the coming weekend.

As time goes by, I could see the number of request to have some Paypal related modules growing and growing...
There is quite a number of "tries" here and there. And there is even a certain number of working solutions.
As I always tried to stay away of the "already done" thing... I decided that I will throw a rock in the water.
See the rest for the "what the hell is he talking about ?!?"
Note: If someone has a different opinion and think I'm doing something wrong... don't hesitate to share it. If the reasons are good... that could save me a lot of time. He he !
The server was very unstable since last month...
I removed mod_gzip that was the cause of this instability and installed Zend Optimizer instead.
Apparently, things are better than it was.
We'll see on the long run.

pnc[UserPoints]-0.15 now available.
only big change is the Error logging in the core plugins and the 3 given plugin with the pack.
For all plugin dev, please see the plugins to see the differences between the new and old ones.
Basically, when a query fail, there is a register_error func to add and an unregister_error at the end if no problem was found.

One of the biggest problem of the pncUserPoints is the lack of effective error management. I did some change in the mod so if there is an error, it is shown like you can see it in the block and in the mod page itself.
Although it will not be necessary (as the mod will still work when there is no error), all plugins will need a change to use the error function.
This is mostly to get rid of the annoying unexplicit ERRMSG message that doesn't show anything and to help plugin devs to have a better view of what could be wrong in their sql query.
I create 2 errors on purpose (Downloads and PNphpBB2) so you can see what I'm talking about.
I'll clean this up and pack it up this weekend.
Have fun !
Chestnut !
P.S. : It's getting itchy to move the mod to the pnRender, I'd like your opinion on this. I know there is many features people wants to have but is it worth it if the mod itself is in a deprecated coding... and hard to manage coding wise.

I forgot to remove a hardcoded mail in one file in the pncBotList. That mail was to receive Debug information when a real bot was provoking an error on a sql query.
I changed the pack so it takes the admin mail configuration variable instead. That mail thing will go away anyway.
The pack has been change... but the only file changed was the pnuserapi.php in the pncBotList folder.

I'll put the last available PNphpBB2 today on pnConcept (available for test)...
I tried it on a mirror site and most problems were resolved (admin and popup windows)...
It may look strange for awhile as I will have to touch the stylesheet......... (my theme isn't the cleanest theme of the world.).

You will see by this very long discussion that there was a need since MagicX left the dev ground of PostNuke... sort of. Others did before me and others will after me I guess to perpetuate his work.
While I tried to have a chit chat with him like in the old days, I was always missing him or was much too occupied on my side so... (stopping the lame excuses) Instead of taking his now very popular ProfilePlus, I did it from scratch using the pnRender and pnAPI. (fully templated).
While doing it, I was surprised to see at the end that I didn't even look at my old ProfilePlus so I guess I can say that it's an original. In the discussion, we mention the name advProfile so I didn't use my imagination much and called it advProfile.
You can see a demo here by clicking on my username.
[ DEMO HERE ]
[ GET IT HERE ]
It is still a work in progress and with time, it will be nearer and nearer of what pn8 could be. You will probably see Mark West interventions in the discussion, every mods will have a place for plugins and instead of having the advProfile look into his own plugin folder, it'll be able to use plugins from other mods.
But that will be for the future.
Have fun... while I savor a much needed vacation.

Today : Just to say that the pncPayPal mod is logging the contributions right now...
There is nothing to show yet but I will try to do the templates (user gui) for that tomorrow.
If you want to test only and want a refund, say it in the memo when on the Paypal page.
[ pncPayPal ]
Tomorrow : The pncBotList 1.2 is almost done. The mod is showing the visits of the day. The next day, it sends to a log table the visits and begin anew. It'll give the possibility to more features in the future like stats, archives and graph and blablabla...

Had to do a little update on the pncBotList
See the ReadMore for the ChangeLog...
To upgrade, replace all files - Regenerate your modules list, upgrade the pncBotList, and Activate...
First Install - Read the pndocs/help.txt
Get it [ HERE ] - [ DEMO ]
Note: (pnRender required)
Note : 2 hours later, I found the Nutch image bot... so if you don't have the Nutch image, get the package again and replace the pncbotcount.php files and add the Nutch.gif in the pnimages folder.
