On a quite big and several time upgraded Tiki all unified-index errors were running without errors.
Since a few month I see an error for each article that has the field source filled with an URL.

''Reviewed with Tiki25''

--If the auto-assign is set to "Creator" and the admin edit an existing item with a null username (creator deleted, error with duplicate feature, etc), the admin username will be assigned and saved. This can happen even if admin doesn't see the field (if he use a modal to modify some preferences or part of the item).--
''Not able to reproduce anymore, may have been fixed''


If the admin duplicate an item that has a another user selected in a user selector field, the new item (the clone) will be saved with the admin for user.

{FADE(label="Instance")}
__Tiki show trunk and Tiki show 24 are not working as expected__ but I could reproduce the bug on a Tiki24 instance:
http://bsfez-11581-7751.show2.tiki.org/tiki-view_tracker.php?trackerId=1

If you want to reproduce you can log as admin/12345 go to the tracker a duplicate an item from a different user using:
http://bsfez-11581-7751.show2.tiki.org/tiki-tracker-clone_item?trackerId=1&itemId=1&modal=1
{FADE}
{img fileId="2021" thumb="box"}

When the wiki page contains HTML headings, autotoc fails to display. It doesn't matter if the HTML plugin is used, or if HTML is activated for the page (and the plugin not used), in both cases the content of the page will narrow to make space for the autotoc, but the autotoc doesn't appear. If there is a combination of wiki syntax headings and HTML headings, autotoc will not appear. If there are only wiki syntax headings, then autotoc displays normally.

It is not possible to change the image banner once one has been uploaded.
See : http://bsfez-11581-7922.show2.tikiwiki.org/tiki-edit_banner.php?bannerId=1
Try to change the banner it shouldn't work.

There is an issue with the image upload.

I tried to understand if it was possible and how to use the tablesorter with tracker filter plugin.

The trackerfilter modal is NOT user-friendly.
Too long list of things the user may not necessarily needed (menu child accordions would definitely help reducing the tremendous amount of information visible there)
The explanation have been copied and pasted as is from another place and hardly make sense.
Fields are not grouped together, naming is not helping (table sorter is hardly if ever found in the options and parameters list or help)... It is a mess and it took me 30mn of test to make a sample visible here : https://doc.tiki.org/PluginTrackerFilter#Trackerfilter_with_table_sorter_setting_to_perform_calculations

We have in Tiki a way to submit and approval Wiki page revisions.
Unfortunately the naming and labelling of things make hard for new coming (and oder) to find documentation and the feature on the Tiki preferences;

We should decide a name for this and use it everywhere.

The image is big (width and height) and it overlap the interface.

__~~#F00:Update; fixed on master~~__

An admin created an calendar event, with date and time in time zone Europe/Berlin. In this example 17:15 Uhr - 18:15 Uhr. In creation view it looks like this:
{img fileId="1848" thumb="box"}

A user with only permissions to read the calendar event, can see the correct time in calendar view but it is wrong in event view. 1 hour later, although CET as a time zone is written behind:
{img fileId="1849" thumb="box"}
I expect the time like in the calendar view and in the item view like an admin it can see.

Preferences are configured like this, and changes on that, doesn't bring up any changes. Even with a different time zone it is everywhere 1 hour difference.

Tiki
24.2 (InnoDB)

Admin can set the days displayed in Tiki calendar.

It can be set from the calendar admin panel : tiki-admin.php?page=calendar#Calendar
{img fileId="1807" thumb="box"}

It can be set from each calendar edit settings (wrench => edit) : tiki-admin_calendars.php
{img fileId="1808" thumb="box"}

However the days are displayed in the calendar
{img fileId="1809" thumb="box"}


By extension they will be seen as "existing" days for a calendar event created/used with tracker field calendar item.

I've followed the doc page to setup record rtc in tiki23 on a linux box (thanks for the documentation)
https://doc.tiki.org/Record-screen-audio-video

I can't succeed at my attempt to use Record RTC since the wiki page gets self-refreshed each time I click at the button to "Start Recording" before I can accept the firefox popup that asks me to grant perm to this page to record/use media or something (I can't read the message properly since the page is self-reloaded too quickly)

I have a valid https now (It was an invalid https in my first attemps)

Reproduced here in dev.t.o

We have many categories in our tikiwiki but noticed that categories created after 24.2 do not get displayed above the wiki page.
IF you inspect the categories database column "SELECT * FROM tikiwikidb.tiki_categories order by rootId;" the newly added categories are there but will not display on the wikipage.

When changing a name of custom module, a new module is being created with all the changes.
It should update the existing custom module and not create a new one.

A German court has ruled that websites that utilize Google fonts possibly violate the GDPR, and the owner of such a site is liable for that.

At first look, this sounds over the edge, but when looking deeper, the court's legal findings are stringent. If a website loads Google fonts, it makes the browser of users load the fonts from Google, thereby compromising personal data to Google.

If the user in question did not agree to this disclosure of personal data to Google (and the site owner can prove that), than it is a clear violation of the GDPR. The user then doesn't know about this disclosure of data, and cannot do anything to prevent this.

Therefore it is advisable that all demo Tiki stuff, including themes, be either stripped of Google fonts, or the fonts should be loaded directly from the site, or the users of such themes be told that the unaltered use of these themes comprises a GDPR violation, which can be fined (for companies) with up to 20 million Euro or 4% of a year's turnover (not profit!), whichever is higher...

Hi, as explained here : [https://tiki.org/forumthread79604|https://tiki.org/forumthread79604] ,
heavy scripts such as codemirror (1.2 MB) are always loaded (tiki 21, 24, 27), even when not in use, resulting in unnecessarily long loading times for visitors. Is there a way of loading heavy scripts only for pages that use them?

thx

On a fresh Tiki 24.0 install, I installed the Blogs profile and on the lowest part of the ''Members Home'' page, I get errors with a helpful message about installing the missing npm-asset/fullcalendar-scheduler package.

When I follow the link to -+ tiki-admin.php?page=packages +-, Tiki complains that temp/composer.phar is missing. It suggests I install composer in the ''Diagnose'' tab and that fails also.
* No reason is provided by Tiki, which is bad because users have no clue what to try next
* Nothing in apache error logs
* Tiki PHP error log at the page bottom does provide a hint:
^ERROR (E_WARNING): file_exists(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/usr/local/sbin/php) is not within the allowed path(s): (xxxxxxx)
At line 231 in lib/core/Tiki/Package/ComposerCli.php^

We should have a better, more secure way of installing composer.
If the above is not possible, we should have better feedback and suggest ways around the issue so it does not look like a Tiki bug.

Installing composer on the command line works, but Tiki does not mention this or how to do it.

Composer packages can't be installed successfully through the web control panel in Tiki 23. Reproduced in dev.t.o, and also in two other servers.
In dev.t.o, the triangle icon shows up inndicating that the install failed.
In the other 2 servers, I saw a message indicating that composer.lock file was missing (on brand new tiki23 git installs, and therefore those packages could not be installed.

In all cases, running in the console (server side) the command -+composer update+- as root fixed the issue.

((doc:Admin Wizard|Configuration wizard)) doesn't seem to save changed prefs. I've been recently warned about a new tiki admin unable to enable structures, that he needed for a knowledge base with tiki.

He was using the configuration wizard, going to wiki, tick "Structures", click at "Save and Continue", but when going back through the button "Back", or going to the control panel Wiki and review structures there, they where not enabled indeed.

I was able to reproduce this bug in recents (git based) Tiki 22, Tiki 23 and Tiki master. However, the feature seems to work as expected in Tiki 21 LTS.

It has been reproduced in branch master in a show instance:
Log in as admin here:
http://xavi-9794-7941.show2.tikiwiki.org/
u: admin
p: 12345

Visit:
http://xavi-9794-7941.show2.tikiwiki.org/tiki-wizard_admin.php?&stepNr=8&url=tiki-index.php

Click at "Structures" to (attempt to) enable teh feature.
Click as "Save and continue"
Click at "Back", you will that the structures feature is not enabled indeed yet.

You can confirm so visiting the Wiki control panel, at the section about Structures, here:
http://xavi-9794-7941.show2.tikiwiki.org/tiki-admin.php?page=wiki#contentadmin_wiki-2

While writing my feature request for a history on the article feature, I got several errors from d.t.o.:

{CODE(Colors="Tiki")}

Hi,

I have upgraded to tiki 24 and I am trying to create a interactive video with H5P in file gallery, but get stuck on creating screen.

{img fileId="1793" thumb="box"}

You can see the issue on hovering the "Slider doesn't work" issue title on https://dev.tiki.org/Wishlist+Search+Page?default%5Bcontent%5D=Slider

{img fileId="1524" thumb="box"}

There's no point in the current page in a structure "breadcrumbs" being a link, because you're already on that page, and it's even kind of misleading because it might give the impression that, because it's a link, it refers to the ''next'' page in the structure, not the current page.

I replied to a comment here : https://dev.tiki.org/tiki-view_tracker_item.php?itemId=8071&threadId=10284&cookietab=1#threadId10286

I inserted two user tags and the display is wrong...

{CODE()}@john.chishugi{CODE}
Only john is a link and it is broken

{CODE()}@chibaguy{CODE}
Display the user full "real" name

I see weird and inconsistent search results on the Wishlist search form when I remove any tracker_status filter at https://dev.tiki.org/Wishlist-Search-Page . I see more than 2 "empty" tickets.

{img fileId="1750" thumb="box"}

I can't see the same at https://dev.tiki.org/tracker5
However if I try to sort by subject I have also weird results: https://dev.tiki.org/tracker5?status=&sort_mode=f_26_asc
The sorting is wrong and I have only 2 "empty" tickets.
