Category: 16.x Regression

'Show creation (or modification) date when viewing items' shows nothing any more when tracker section format is set to Tabs

At the Tiki.org forums ( [https://tiki.org/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?forumId=4&comments_parentId=62116#threadId=62160] ), after submitting a reply, I get an error: "No thread indicated." Of course I was in a thread when I submitted the post. This happened in one thread but I was able to post a reply in another thread at about the same time, with no problem.

~np~
As evidenced inside the doc.tiki.org/Plugin+Alias page, the ~ tc ~ (tiki comment) is being processed inside the {CODE()} plugin and the ~ np ~ tag syntax. Noticed on 24 Jun 2017 with doc.tiki.org/Page+Alias using 16.3svn. Temporarily edited page to make example visible inside {CODE()} section; edit which should be undone when bug fixed. Did not edit or attempt to temporarily correct the issue also existing for inline ~ np ~ use in the 2nd paragraph following the {CODE()} example.
~/np~
(first time bug submitter here. Edit report as appropriate to bring into standards or delete if not appropriate at all. Marked as regression figuring it is likely an unreleased bug introduced and not caught during regression testing as of yet. As this dev.tiki.org site using the same version, not sure I can properly report the problem -- a recursive dog food problem -- as I cannot preview my description that needs ~ np ~ to work?)

15.x: Improvements needed for mobile view of many *.t.o sites (dev, themes, doc, ...)

{img src="display1077" thumb="box" width="800"}

(1) No way to login at dev.t.o or doc.t.o, for instance, when browsing the page in the smartphone
(tested with Chrome on Android, but it seems to be reproduced with a browser on a desktop and making it narrow enough as a smartphone)

(2) There is no logo nor site name displayed in the top header of most *.t.o sites. OTher (non-tiki) bootstrap websites do display their logo and name when shown through smartphone. IS tehre anything that can be done in the Tiki side to fix this?

(3) Fullscreen button is shown on top of the button at the top layer to display the logo and site name. Therefore, clicking there, fires the fullscreen in some cases. And when in full screen, in a smartphone, I couldn't come back to normal display mode clicking at that button in the smartphone for some reason, I had to fix the param in the url to get back to normal.

(4) The submenu is not shown in dev.t.o and doc.t.o but it is shown in themes.t.o Why? How shall we edit the submenus so that they are shown in the smartphone display?

Thanks

Please, whoever introduced the UI change that did hide the preference filters, please, please, please, expose them back to new tiki admins, since there are tons of support requests in many tiki sites out there about new site admins (even experienced php developers) not finding the preferences that they are looking for in the Control Panels, also following the documentation pages in doc.t.o about them, etc.

This is also affecting people creating show.t.o instances to report bugs and not finding the preferences, etc.

I tried myself but it was beyond myskills when I had a quick look at that, and I was fearing to break some tpl/css, so I'd rather leave ir for an aexperienced UI developers, or even better, to whoever introduced this usability regression (back in Tik1i3 or 14 days, probably?)

Thanks

bad contrast of text vs bg in alternate row with trackerlist (or fancytable?) inside a remarksbox plugin with theme cosmo (at least)

After upgrade from tiki12 to tiki15, and selecting theme cosmo.
I had to convert calls of plugin remarksbox into plugin box.
For the record, reproduced here: https://sustainability.seeds4c.org/Shared+Forms+to+include
(with plugin remarksbox, currently replaced by plugin box, since it's a production site)

On "tiki.org/Versions" the link entitled: "Why PHP 5.5 and not 5.4" broken.

I have searched through the site and did not find it, so could not update it myself.
---
Update:
* some links fail the first time that you click on them, but work the second (same browser, computer and all). Odd!. Reproduced with {sign user="xavi" datetime="2015-11-19T09:11:45+00:00"}:
** https://tiki.org/tiki-pagehistory.php?page=Versions&oldver=6
** https://tiki.org/tiki-view_forum_thread.php?comments_parentId=52703#threadId53177

__Update:__ cannot reproduce anymore - got fixed? {sign user="luci" datetime="2018-04-03T07:38:35+00:00"}

I did several upgrade lately from Tiki 15.x, Tiki16.x, Trunk, 15.4 package, 16.2 package and today’s daily from 16.3.

Somewhere near 15.4 release something was broken and the browsertitle pref is empty instead of showing previous data at tiki-install.php / Configure General Settings.

Button plugin is asking for plugin approval on templates each time a page is open for the first time.

This is a pain when you use a template to display items, customSearch, etc.
It is like I have to scan all the Tiki possible pages and mass approved the plugin changes.

I’m extensively using wiki page as template (list, listExecute, customSearch) and have several project built that way (not using smarty templates).

It has been discussed that this was introduced in Tiki16 and so far not fixed.

can't upload an image to a file gallery in doc.t.o with elfinder (default UI) since 16.x

To reproduce:
#I'm logged in as user "xavi" (with no admin perms, I mean)
#I edit one page, e.g. ((doc:Tiki17))
#place the cursor somewhere in the text.
#Click at the button from the toolbar to "Choose or upload images"
#The elFinder UI popup is shown with no contents, and I?m not able to click anywhere (browser non.-responsive), while I can't only get access to use the browser again when the wiki pedit page is automatically refreshed with the elFinder automatically disappearing.
#Reproduced also after clearing my Browser cache, and Tiki caches, with Chromium and Firefox.

Tried on 12, 15, 16 and 17 to create a plugin alias based on : https://doc.tiki.org/Plugin+Alias

Work only in 12x.

I created an instance.

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).

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.

I have "Require confirmation of an action if a possible CSRF is detected" set on tiki-admin.php?page=security. When I get the warning "Possible cross-site request forgery (CSRF, or "sea surfing") detected. Operation blocked.", and I click the "Click here to confirm your action" button, the same warning page redisplays instead of refreshing to the page where the admin action was made. This repeats as long as I keep clicking.

But the admin change does get made. If I input the admin page URL or go back in browser history to the admin page, I can see the change did take effect.

This is on my local wamp installation, so I'll need to make a show instance unless other people can reproduce this bug.

Convene plugin missplaces the counts in columns after the winning choice. See it reproduced in the screenshot below:

{img fileId="1093" thumb="box" width="600"}

In
https://tiki.org/Roundtable+Meeting+2016+09

After the count with the more votes (7, at the time of this writing), and the icon with the checkbox-like icon to indicate that this was the winning choice (Thu 15 Sep 2016 15:00 CEST), there is a button box in orange in the screenshot that should show a calendar icon, and that button allows to send that date to the pre-defined tiki calendar.
https://tiki.org/tiki-calendar_edit_item.php?todate=1473944400&calendarId=7

But no calendar icon is shown, and the count of votes for the next date (column in the table) is shown there instead ("3" instead of the calendar icon), and the next counts are also one column before where they should be.

edit article doesn't save if you change any setting in the advanced tab: to email.

Reproduced in
https://tiki.org/tiki-edit_article.php?articleId=442#content_edit_article1-5

Add any email in the "to" field, and you won't be able to save your edition, or your new article if it was the first time you were writing that.

The action log, in addition, says:
{CODE()}
/New article post at tiki.org [Invalid "To" header; contains no addresses]
{CODE}

When trying to Upload Translations using a Custom Translations file I got the following (tested on Mac and Windows).

Error
Invalid file type (expected file type: php)

Extra site logo (tiki logo) and sitetitle shown at the top left corner after upgrade to 16.2svn (a.navbar-brand)

Workaround?: hide it with custom css. See:
https://doc.tiki.org/Tiki16#Known_Issues

I presume that this is needed for the display of the site logo when in smartphones and tablets, etc. but it should only be shown in that case, not always, and not if the other site logo and site name (from the feature and the module logo) are shown already.

Sometime between Sept. 4 and 25, hits on files (that is, the counter on file downloads) stopped working at https://themes.tiki.org/file27 . Three files uploaded since Sept. 25 show zero hits, even though I've downloaded each of them at least once to check the downloading, etc., both logged in as admin and not logged in.

My localhost branch 16 also shows this problem.

when listing a gallery via tiki-list_file_gallery.php?page=fgal&galleryId=<GALLERYID>, there should be a way to disable the gallery tree on the left. I have the same gallery tree in the left tiki bar, so I have it twice on the page, when working in the file galleries.

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)
{QUOTE}

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!

__tiki-admin_menus.php__

After an upgrade from 15 to trunk the groups are not shown anymore when menu items are listed.

This is emberassing and time consuming, especially when you use the feature to manage the menu item display via the groups.

Now you have to open each single menu item, when you want to check for which group or group combination the item currently is set to visible.

In case you had several identical items for different group combinations you will get crazy, but even for average use cases (only one group set) and only few menu items it is quite annoying to not see the group in the listing.

Ths is a UX deprication an a regression of something we have in Tiki since ... beofre Tiki 2 I'd say and which is absolute basic.

In case that would be an option/preference (why it should be?) please set it to visible by default!

Best regards,
Torsten

Seems it is back...

On fresh install (new db) after filling admin new password and email you are redirected to the wizard.

If you close it (toggling show on start) you are redirected to -+tiki-index.php?page=HomePage+-, the HomePage

It show an error:
Error

Page not found
HomePage

{img fileId="1915" thumb="box"}

First visit for new admin experience is critical...

{FADE(label="Previous report - Tiki16" icon="y")}
On fresh install (new db) after filling admin new password and email you should be redirected to the HomePage (showing the wizard by default).

However, I soon as you submit the admin information you are redirected to an error page:
Error

Page not found
HomePage

{img fileId="1056" thumb="box"}

If I refresh the page or if I type mydomain/HomePage in the URL bar, page it is still not found.

If I click on the "Home" item of the menu I’m redirect to tiki-index.php and I can see the homepage.
From this point HomePage exist and can be accessed entering the address in the url bar from wiki page list, etc.

The wizard is lost in space.

I tried the following:

1-created a spreadsheet with two columns; row one had headings, row two data
* http://stirus-11828-6082.show.tikiwiki.org/tiki-view_sheets.php?sheetId=1
2-exported the spreadsheet in CSV format, UTF-8 character set
3-renamed the export file
4-edit the exported file with UltraEdit; changed one field; saved with UTF-8
5-created an empty spreadsheet
* http://stirus-11828-6082.show.tikiwiki.org/tiki-view_sheets.php?sheetId=2
6-ran import CSV with UTF-8
7-no data imported, and the sheet just says "Array".

insert tracker item with modal window fails due to form refresh when choosing page name from dropdown options (in a tracker field wiki page name)
