Yes gspark, it's not integrated with the forums registrations ... on the list of things to do someday.

Hey, what a great system this modX,
I've set up a fresh install of 0.9.6 and I was impressed. Thanks for sharing.

Here are a few things I've found in a day playing with it:

• the (main ajax) menu does not accept the "first" style (also "last" on "modxtest.muddydogpaws.com"), though it can be found in the html code, FF inspector shows only "category" is done
• the tinyMCE shrinks the media dialogs (picture, flash, Links, ...) to less than half width in FF, so they are unusable
• the ajax search does not accept Umlaute (special chars) though modX and db are set (verified) to "utf8_general_ci" - the "normal search" does
  (the thread about this from yoomai seems to fit only older versions of modx)
• the search does not do in comments

A hint to especially the search would make me a new fan of this great framework

Hi !
i successfully upgraded modx 0.9.5 to 0.9.6, ( although i had to try twice because of an apache 500 internal server error )

there is a little bug i found, on the manager login page, the button is misplaced  :




( maybe this occurs only with the french version )

I reported this issue earlier, it seems to be related to the "Forgot Password" link not showing up on the manager form. Whether the plugin isn't installed, or whatever it is, when the forgot password link is present, the positioning is just right.

Update: In my research, I found out that no System Events where checked off for: Forgot Manager Login

OnBeforeManagerLogin
OnManagerAuthentication
OnManagerLoginFormRender

I have just upgraded from 0.9.5 to 0.9.6 and am having problems with the missing "Forgotten Password" link from the manager login page, but mainly i am having issues with using TinyMCE when i am either adding a new page or editing an existing one.

I am using IE7, and it will just display a javascript "error on page". Only the basic "standard" toolbar is loaded at the bottom of the text box with bold, italicise, underline, strikethough, undo, redo, cleanup messy code, bullet list and numbered list and thats all.

Can anyone help?

EDIT: I have chosen a different theme and it adds more options to the toolbar etc, so thats obviously not the problem - but am still geting this javascript error when using it. If i set my user default editor to "None" it works fine editing in plain text with no js errors. As soon as i switch to TinyMCE it starts loading and i get JS errors - i can then not actually use the rich text editor as it wont let me make fonts bold for example or use any of the buttons on the toolbar. Plus if i try to edit a page it just loads a blank textbox.

EDIT #2: I noticed i had a "tinymce" folder in my "plugins" aswell as a "tinymce2111", so deleted the old "tinymce" folder with no luck, still not working giving JS errors.

EDIT #3: Tried in Firefox2.0 and it works fine, can edit pages and add pages using TinyMCE. But with IE i get this error:

MODx 0.9.6 Issues with Mootools ?
Style List (show/hide) in <your_site>/index.php?id=32 return js error's too.
//edit: Like said for the RC3.
//edit2:
el.removeEvents is not a function
http://<site>/manager/media/script/mootools/mootools.js
Line 2

Element.getStyle is not a function
http://<site>/manager/media/script/scriptaculous/prototype.js
Line 1192

I bet your java error is the same as above which you can get to see with firefox when you use firebug addon.

I did trace the js error down to Element.getDimensions and not getStyles.  getDimensions is called before getStyles and the function contains getStyles.. and I know that makes no sense.!! :-/

Hi!

I make a upgrade from 0.9.1 to 0.9.6 and all works.
But i have 2 problems.

The first one (the bigger one): When i edit a site and i save it the Alias text don't get saved.

The other one is the problem with the character encoding. When i set it in the manager to iso-8859-15 the sites get displayed normal but the special caracters of the german language (ü, ö, ä, ...) are false in the manager. When i set it on utf-8 the manager shown normal but the template of the site is complety destroyed.
I set the the meta-tag for the iso encoding in the template but this has no effect.

Is the first problem an error of the new version or does my installation has an error?
I make a new installation and the same shit 

Thx, Lupo

If you are not using UTF-8 as your manager language encoding, your going to have problems trying to create an alias with letters that are not valid in the encoding you are using.  And make sure the new $database_connection_charset variable in manager/includes/config.inc.php matches your actual charset/collation settings on the database tables.

Can anyone help with my JS TinyMCE errors posted above? 

[xyzvisual]

hi,
my config.ink.php is
$database_connection_charset = 'latin1_spanish_ci'; or $database_connection_charset = 'latin1';
my alias field is
`alias` varchar(255) collate latin1_spanish_ci default '',
my site content table is
ENGINE=MyISAM AUTO_INCREMENT=11 DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 COLLATE=latin1_spanish_ci COMMENT='Contains the site document tree.'

is a upgrade site and want to use westrern european iso1 instead utf8 and couldent save my alias
¿Whats the problem? seee posts above and dont find solution.
thanks in advance

I guess no-one has any ideas about the TinyMCE errors i have been getting. I have now tried deleting everything and installing the newer version of ModX all over again but using the same MySQL database and am still having the same problem, so cant help but feel that it is something in the database maybe still pointing to the old version of TinyMCE or something.

Can anyone help?

richieboy, any way you could send me the URL to the manager of the site that has the error as well as a username/pass to use?  I'll be glad to look at it for you to determine the problem.  Just PM or e-mail it to me.

Hi guys

• Well in fact the code in the page is for scriptaculous. It works with MODxCSS template. Then you must you to delog from the manager... cause by default the page is render in backoffice too I suppose... Hmm.
• In the MODxHost template the js call is for mootools.

So the content in the sample website should be adapt to work with the new official effect library. Perhaps a mootools expert in the room?

Ho! And the cooky must be enable too... No advice if they are bloqued by the browser.

Just to confirm with the previous reporters, the Login button is mis-aligned in both FF2 and IE7, on a brand-spanking clean install of 0.9.6-final.

It looks like when you don't enable Captcha, there isn't enough of a margin underneath the button.  And, yep, there's no Forgot Password link!

Looking good so far though!

Argh no my bad!  Just re-installed it and seen the "Forgot Manager Password" plugin - installed that, and everything's groovy 

[Pandy06269]

OK maybe everything's not so groovy.

I cannot for the life of me get TinyMCE working.  This is on a clean 0.9.6-final install, and I've been through it 3 times now, still no joy.

Here's what I've done...

1. Download, unzip and upload MODx.
2. Visit mysite.com/install
3. Follow the screens through, clear all options, then select the following:

- Install/Update DocManager
- Install/Update Bottom Button Bar
- Install/Update Forgot Manager Login
- Install/Update Inherit Parent Template
- Intall/Update TinyMCE 2.1.1.1

That all goes through OK.

Now, login to the Manager - set my site's configuration - Interface & Features. 
In the "Editor to use" drop-down, all it says is "None." 

In MODx 0.9.6 RC3, TinyMCE was present, and selected by default.  Even in the user's individual settings, the only editor available is "None."  If I go to Manage Resources > Plugins, I have the following:

- Bottom Button Bar
- Forgot Manager Login
- Inherit Parent Template
- QuickEdit

Notice also, I did not select QuickEdit in the options - I purposely did not select it.  Is it possible MODx is mistaking QuickEdit for TinyMCE?

Thanks,

Andy.
