I got this error when upgrading a Tiki 15 site to Tiki 19 on a hosted server. The files are a new branch 19 checkout (r68949), and the database is an existing Tiki 15 database I want to update to 19. The error message followed clicking the "Update the database" button in the install screens.

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function set_preference() on null in /home/.../installer/schema/20180410_install_piwik_plugin_tiki.php:17 Stack trace: #0 /home/.../installer/installlib.php(177): upgrade_20180410_install_piwik_plugin_tiki(Object(Installer)) #1 /home/.../installer/installlib.php(132): Installer->installPatch('20180410_instal...') #2 /home/.../installer/tiki-installer.php(1049): Installer->update() #3 /home/.../tiki-install.php(106): include_once('/home/.../...') #4 {main} thrown in /home/.../installer/schema/20180410_install_piwik_plugin_tiki.php on line 17

Any clues on how I should proceed, or if this is site-specific or a general bug?

The feature "Mini-Calendar" does not appear on tiki-tracks.

Workspaces (from ((doc:Mod AulaWiki)) are half broken on 1.10 since months ago.
Any action which is related to workspce calendar module gives fatal error (blank screen). Adding resources to workspaces also fails:

^
Fatal error: Call to undefined method WorkspaceResourcesLib::get_url_admin_file() in /var/www/tiki110/lib/workspaces/resourceslib.php on line 117
^

On this url (on an updated site to 1.10svn from May 2nd):
[http://moviments.net/cursos/tiki-workspaces_view_module.php?module=workspaces_resources&workspaceId=110]


http://edu.tikiwiki.org is also having the same kind of problem, on a less updated 1.10 site.

I must be missing something... yes?

Yesterday I upgraded from 4.3 to 5.2, and everytying seemed to go ok (all upgrade operations were executed successfully). However, every time I try to edit or create a file gallery I get the same error message, which seems to be related to a missing field (show_lastDownload) in the tiki_file_galleries table.

I copy below one of such errors. Please, note that, according to the community forums [http://tikiwiki.org/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?comments_parentId=38578&topics_offset=2&topics_sort_mode=lastPost_desc&forumId=6|this issue was already reported for a 4.3 to 5.1 upgrade].

I think that a) somebody should check the upgrade for a possible bug, and if possible b) find a way to solve this issue for sites running tiki 5.x with this feature broken.

The following error message was returned:

Unknown column 'show_lastDownload' in 'field list'

The query was:

I recently upgraded our tiki install to version 2. Most things survived the upgrade, however the most obvious thing that was broken is the file galleries feature.

All links to files previously in the gallery still work correctly, however when I select the option to list galleries, none of the existing galleries are displayed. It just shows "No records found"

Looking in the database, all files and galleries are there.

When i attempt to upload a new file, I am still given the option to select a file gallery (all gallery names are still shown). When I select the appropriate options and confirm the upload I can link to it as usual but it does not appear when I select to browse the gallery.

Find an easy way to help tiki users convert their slideshows made with tiki slideshow feature into a pdf of slides (for backup and life-saver when internet issues at presentation time)

Every now and then, we prepare presentations with the nice Tiki ((doc:Slideshow)) feature (jquery.s5)
But the day of the presentation, some issues might happen: internet connectivity issues, or others, like in the demo scheduled for the Tiki Roundtable Meeting for April 2015 from teh tekadvocates, etc.

The dompdf lib seemed to help with that, but it was never brought to a production level. See:
http://doc.tiki.org/Slideshow#PDF_Export

Some workaround is to make the slideshow by hand through screenshots of all slides, one by one, and then, convert them all into a pdf with external tools, such as gscan2pdf or similar.

Tablesorter doesn't seem to load when the tiki 12 lts is shown in mobile mode.

Similar approach works on 14.x, but it wpuld be lovely to have our LTS branch work in mobile also

Reproduced here:
http://xavi-9794-5655.show.tikiwiki.org/tiki-index.php?page=Sortable+Tables+demo#step2

U: admin
P: 12345

Switch to mobile and see how the tablesorter ui is lost

There are some tips elsewhere about how to fix this type of issue (I wonder if it's the same or not):

After running "./fixperms.sh fix" on the server side (Debian based, having root perms on server), and using 1.10svn code from mid May 2008, admins of the tiki site can still install mods on the server through the Tiki admini mods interface.
It used to work before (months ago, when I last used that).
our server, afaik, has www-data and www-data as user and group.
We are using a multitiki installation, with tikis under subdirectories.

I'm afraid that admins of the other tikis from the same multitiki are able to remove mods that we are using and need, etc.

Hello,
I installed the same website on two different server (same source and same sql).
The first is a Unbuntu 9.04 with last Apache, Php, Mysql. Config with a VirtualHost.
The second is Windows Vista SP2 with EasyPhp 3.0. Config with a Directory and Alias.

On the first server (Ubuntu), some links in forum like "reply" are wrong (something like http://www.mysite.com/forumId=...). Also when I send a message the request finish on a blank page.

On the second server I don't have this pb.

A specific component is need for 3.x (maybe present in EasyPhp) ?

Thanks

forums in t.o unusable: help!

I tried to reply to this forum post https://tiki.org/forumthread62480 with my user "xavi" adding this content:

{QUOTE()}
Hi enelson and welcome to the Tiki Community
Have a look at the authentication methods available in Tiki:
https://doc.tiki.org/Login+Config

and external authentication:
https://doc.tiki.org/External+Authentication

If the main CMS was Tiki, you also configure same login through several methods tested and working elsewhere ( ((doc:Intertiki)), among others). What does composr offer that you can't get in Tiki? (just curious)

The post is not saved. I tried 3 times. No way.

Clicking at the top at the link to "prev topic" produces this url:
https://tiki.org/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?comments_parentId=62487&topics_offset=-1

which returns this error message on a semi-WSOD page:
{CODE()}
Error
Notice: invalid variable value: $_GET["topics_offset"] = -1
{CODE}

I tried then to go to the list of forums through the usual SEF url:
https://tiki.org/forums

but that is re-sent to the tiki home page with the blueish perspective
https://tiki.org/tiki-index.php

I'm looking for an alternative way to simply go to the forums list in tiki.org and I can't find it anywhere in the blueish perspective. I presume that this is related to some bad configuration or bugs with perspectives. But I can't confirm, and I can't change them any more as simple user in tiki.org.
Shouldn't we expose the main app menu somewhere (at the bottom, at least) for registered users???

Help!

I have a TikliWIki as startup in one of two frames. The other frame has a number of links that are supposed to open in the Tikiframe. But if tiki-index.php has been opened in that frame, subsequent documents opens i new windows (in IE) (as if target=_blank had been used) och new tabs (in FF).
If index.php is the only document that has been opened (when the mysql-connection is broken) everything works, but as soon as I try tiki-index.php, the problem comes back.

For some reason, GanttChart changes in StartIsMilestone and EndIsMilestone don't get saved across editions.

What needs to be changed? Profile ((pr:GanttChart)) defines them so far as checkboxesm but maybe it's not the right field type. Should the param value stored in Tiki be yes, y, or true or something else?
Or maybe the issue is somewhere else?

Help is appreciated to get this (currently broken) feature up & running by default when applying the demo profile.

Thanks!

You can reproduce this issue by means of applying the ((pr:GanttChart)) profile.

GanttChart: changes in Assignees don't get saved across editions
You can add users to the assignments part in the editor. However, they don't get stored apparently, because when editing the same item again, that information is missing.

Maybe some extra sync is needed with a new param in the tiki plugin to match the param in the jquery app?

You can reproduce this issue by means of applying the ((pr:GanttChart)) profile.

Uploading an animaged gif image file that shows a bug reproduced is not an easy task tin dev.t.o.
I had to do that because the record rtc feature is not usable yet, and I wanted to reproduce the issue visually. I did that in an animated gif. I edited the corresponding [item7795|bug report], and uploaded the gif file throught the toolbar icon to "Choose or upload images".
I got the image uploaded (to the default location, I didn't change it, expecting "happy path"), but the wiki syntax automatically inserted seems to not be adapted to displaying gif images.
I recall that any plugin img param that attempts to resize the image converts it to png (or Tiki used to do so years ago), so that I removed the param to make a zoombox, I just left the param to indicate the fileId. But nothing was displayed in the parsed textarea of the tracker item once saved.

Similarly, going to the view file (icon shown from the since last visit module) showed nothing, which might trigger the falsse sensation that the file upload failed.
https://dev.tiki.org/file1?fileId=1562&view=page

But it didn't fail.
If you use the oldish syntax to display the image as an image, then it displays properly, as it can be reproduced here:
https://dev.tiki.org/item7795-Cannot-use-Record-RTC-page-self-refreshed-before-accepting-perm-to-record

Couldn't we get that plugin img when using fileId param to automati8cally display the gif image as image when the plugin notices that it's a gif image indeed?
Somehow...
HTH

I added this here because there have been no responses in the forum. The category is support request, and I assume this does not mean request for paid support.

See https://tiki.org/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?comments_parentId=77291#threadId=77544

Maybe this can be handled by a new developer to the project.

Hi,

I am using hotwords on my Tiki and I am facing a problem. I'm not sure if it is a bug or a feature request but I would like some help to achieve what I want.

I have the following list of Hotwords:
Word > URL
Lift Mechanics > Lift Mechanic
Lift Mechanic > Lift Mechanic
lift > lift
lifts > lift
chair lift > chair lift
cabin lift > cabin lift

The problem is that "list" will conflict with words like "chair lift" and the following text is displayed in my Tiki:
A small lift,:::::" >cabin lift or a big detachable grip lift" >chair lift should do the job.
Instead of links to "cabin lift" and "chair lift".

Is there a way to make Hotwords with two words (chair lift) override single words (lift)? ANy other suggestion is welcome.

PS: I need both pages, "lift" and "cabin lift"

Thank you

Best regards,
Rémy

I have managed to create a horizontal menu (cf. the bug that menu creation on Tiki 18.8 is impossible) by directly manipulating it's table in the database.

While that has worked, in principle, I do have a layout problem: I want to have, aside from the text, one of the options with a logo. So I created at tiny PNG in the height of the text in the (horizontal) menu, but I cannot adjust the height (vertical position) of this tiny image in relation to the vertical position of the adjacent text. How can I shift either the graphics (currently via img plugin) or the text vertically so that image and text are nicely "in line"?

Ideal would be the vertical center, but if that isn't possible, top or bottom could also do.

I hesitate to render all menu items as solid graphics. From a graphics designer's point of view that would ease things, but slow down initial page load, and/or display nasty ALT text until loading/caching has finished.

Thanks

In the image you can see lots of space for a nice background image to be placed along the top. How do I add an image here. I have tried hacking the css and scss but its not ideal. Can you place a module in the topbar to hold an image background

Hi there,
I would like to know if it is possible to force the tikiwiki login process.

I want the login page for the home page, in order to force the users to log in. I have to modify the tiki-index page ?Do you guys have any hint for doing that?

Any help will be much apreciated.

How can I move the carousel plugin to the center of the page? The plugin doesn't seem to have a center alignment as own parameter, and when I enclose it in center markup, only the image caption (!) gets centered, the container of image and caption stays on the left hand side...

Is this a feature or a bug? ;-)

Hi:
I can't add recurrent events in this web site:
http://moviments.net/uelm/tiki-calendar.php

Neither me, nor other editors in this web site.
Single items can be added with no problem.

However, I've tried to reproduce the problem in local , and I haven't been able to do so. I can add single events, and recurrence rules without problems.

I can provide the db of the problematic site, to allow further investigation of the settings in that site...
