When on a blog page (tiki-view_blog.php) and you click a "Leave a comment" link, the page refreshes to the blog post page (tiki-view_blog_post.php) but it's still necessary to click the "Post a new comment" button to open the comment form. It would be nice if the page displayed with the form already open when you arrive from the "Leave a comment" link (but I don't know if this is possible or easy to implement).

The front end comment options Reply, Edit, Delete, Archive disappear when clicked on and do not bring any menus up or carry out the actions they are meant to. (The rating option however still works ok).

This is happening when I am logged in as an Admin clicking on the comment options for Anonymous users. (I can use the Reply, Edit, Delete, Archive options on my own comments ok).

{syntax type="tiki" editor="plain"}
If 'Display comments form by default' is checked, the comment button doesn't react. Comments works but you'll have to right click on the comment button and 'open in new window'.

Reproduced in trunk and 16.x:

Inability to post a comment-Issue (due to highlighter)
Reproduced in trunk in:
* Login as admin in http://xavi-9794-3214.show.tikiwiki.org/tiki-view_tracker_item.php?itemId=5
u: admin
p: 12345

And in 16.x in:
http://xavi-9794-6132.show.tikiwiki.org/tiki-view_tracker_item.php?itemId=5
u: admin
p: 12345

It's currently also affecting https://dev.tiki.org bug tracker comments. {sign user="xavi" datetime="2016-10-14T10:17:35+00:00"}

When codemirror highlighter is on (desired behavior in some setups, and the one produced by the new profile "Bug_Tracker_15" by default) when you click at submit your comment, you get: "__content is empty__", so you need to disable the highlighting before you can safely submit your comment.

This feature works as expected in Tiki15.

In comments (on wiki pages for example), there is a bar:

Style: Sort: Threshold: Search:


This seems like clutter when there are only a few comments.


Suggestion:
Only have this bar if number of comments is high enough that a comment pagination is needed (ex.: 10)

Application of the Company_Intranet_4x after a new installation with the Barebones install, installs 2 profiles.
***Company_Intranet
***Company_Intranet_4x

The installation of both profiles completes successfully however it results in some duplicate content that is automatically created by the profile. (I.E. there are two "Support" Forums)


I have tested and confirmed this from revision number 22637-24054.

On a Tiki23 I want to format properly and nice a section with several numbered paragraph (like I do for the TRM pages): https://tiki.org/Roundtable-Meeting-2021-12

But seems our parser ignore everything about paragraph and each line must be indented separately.
Worst it does understand the difference between a line feed (one line down) and a carriage return (start next line) : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12747722/what-is-the-difference-between-a-line-feed-and-a-carriage-return

To have this :
{img fileId="1650" thumb="box"}

I have to write the following with several extra %, the sign plus before each line, etc.
Not what you expect from a Wiki... It is supposed to help the editor, not to kill him with complicate syntax.

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.

When the Strasa theme is selected, the tiki edit structure page is unusable. The Page Alias box(es) background is the same color as the text within. Making the text invisible on the screen and thus impossible to edit / update / review.

{syntax type="tiki" editor="plain"}
I changed the password of a current user (in "Admin Users/Edit User")just to test the feature. I had told the Edit form to change the password on the first login, but no form to do so came up and indeed I was able to simply log out and log in as that user with the same password I changed it to.

The "change password on first login" box does not seem to work.

The buttons after the text input in the search module are confusing. I doubt if people generally know whether to click "search" or "go". There should at least be tooltips for these to explain the difference. Also, "Edit" shouldn't display unless the user has wiki edit permission, seems to me.

When using ~pp~php console.php translation:getstrings --lang=en~/pp~ or using with the basedir argument ~pp~php console.php translation:getstrings --basedir=themes/Bernard/templates --lang=en~/pp~ all the /lang/*/language.php files are generated (or just duplicated I can’t say) and a "language.php.old" is added in all the language directories.

When a language is specified only this languages files should be targeted.

This is a problem if you don't want Registered users to have this permission. (Often, we want Registered to have all the permissions of anonymous)

in tiki-admin.php?page=features
There is "Contact us" and "Contact Us (Anonymous)"

in tiki-admin.php?page=general, we have more related options
"Contact user:"
"Allow anonymous users to "Contact Us":"


All these options should be on Contact Us admin page (to be created)

If the content of a remarksbox __which is part of a list wiki syntax__ contains a line (carriage return) the part below it is displayed outside the remarksbox.

I create page content outside of tiki. I tranform content from a file to HTML code which I then paste into a new page in tiki with the given ~np~{HTML()}{HTML}~/np~ tags so it gets displayed formatted.

The actual problem is if I search for unique content of one of those pages, the search feature can't find it. Strangely content on some pages which are also created and displayed with HTML Code only, are searchable.
I read into the search feature and tested it with a few other searches of other pages to be sure it actually works. I also simply copy pasted the not working pages into a new page without the HTML and then the search feature also worked.
I can't seem to find the actual reason why some pages get properly searched and some not. Help would be appreciated.

See https://dev.tiki.org/Git-and-SVN-combined-workflow for example

contributors (from contribution feature) are not listed on the contributors list at the bottom of a wiki page in view mode. (collaborative style set at wiki admin)

They are shown in history of the wiki page in a new column called "contributors", which is fine, but when viewing a page, and when wiki set up as collaborative style for listing contributors, author and those "contributors" should be included all together in the list of contributors.
Example:
http://www.iesbarcelona.org/ESSO350/tiki-index.php?page=2009s%20EAP%20Buses%20and%20Metro

listed three users (Authors) as contributors.
However, if you go to history:
http://www.iesbarcelona.org/ESSO350/tiki-pagehistory.php?page=2009s%20EAP%20Buses%20and%20Metro

you can see a fourth user in the contributors column.
That user can't see her name on the list of contributors, and requests for help to site admin due to that fact, etc.

On the convene plugin the month selection arrow are not visible until you move over. Today’s date is not shown anymore.

It may after other areas than the convene plugin.

I think it all started when I was filling my availability row. This requires scrolling right, so I did not see the left-hand "save" icon. I saw a similar icon in the bottom and I clicked it (thinking "how clever, a floating save icon").
But it made me change pages to the calendar item of the top-selected time :-( (ooops!)
Then when I came back to the page, no availability was shown on my row (obviously) and I could not edit again (there was probably a lock) nor delete my whole line either.
Later on, I came back and I could fill availabilty agin and save.

Then I tried to add a new participant "Jyhem.logger" for confirming the issue
Then "Jyhem" was showing as if no availability was selected
But when I edited the line all was correctly selected. Just not shown
Also, I could not delete "Jyhem.logger" line

It was like there was some interference between the "Jyhem" and the Jyhem.logger" lines.

Then I edited the whole page and saw Jyhem had the proper selections. I cancelled edition of the page (no change).
Then all was good : I could delete "Jyhem.logger" and see the "Jyhem" availability
That's it

From a quick view it seems there is a best day for the meeting.
however if we take a better look, there 3 possible days.

Instead of pointing (green success colours) to the first top result, there should be a better way to visually mark the 3 possible options.

1) Column colapsing is not remerbered whenever I change from one page to another.

2) And also have had some problems with their navigators saying "cookies must be on" when they are on, no matter wich browser is being used. This happends as they attemp to login. After many tries the user can login.


Using:
Tiki 6.1 fresh code install, on past 6.0 db updated to 6.1.

Copyright and license notices are missing from several *.tikiwiki.org sites. These are required, or participation and content become legally ambiguous.

Hi,

When I test the quizzes feature, I see the countdown doesn't work.
I investigated the code and found the problem.
In the template tiki-take-quiz.tpl, there is a line:

{CODE()}itid = window.setInterval('settimeleft();',1000);{CODE}

The right syntax is:

{CODE()}itid = window.setInterval(function(){settimeleft()},1000);{CODE}

Regards,

When you are on a page of a wiki structure, you can click on the print icon, but you will only print that single page.

The icon and option to "__print this page and all the subpages__" (= in the the sub-structure) right from there (without going through all the clicks at "Wiki > multiprint > select structure > print") would be very welcome, since the base feature to rpint the full structure exists.

From the home of the structure, it would print the full structure (as it can be done with one click from a structure within a Workspace through ((doc:AulaWiki)) mod, or through many clicks as usual, as explained above).

If the user is on a subpage of the structure, that button would print that page and all subpages from the same structure.

Does it make sense?
