MODx 0.9.6.1 candidate available in testbuilds

Where are we with the testing of 0.9.6.1 ? Those who didn’t answer yet : did you have a chance to test ??
Would be nice to have this upgrade wrapped and posted, uh ?

I have been running this rev with a live website and everything seems to be alright I encountered no issue. I didn’t have time to check item by item against 0.9.6 issues yet, might kickstart the testing team if we had a list of those items... anyone wants to pick the ball ?

I’m using rev 2784 for my loripsum.co.uk site, had no problem upgrading, and while the site really isn’t doing much, it hasn’t given me any problems. At least the SkinGraft module works just fine with it

Could perhaps someone test my issue with quickedit and multiple choice TVs? I´m wondering if this only occurs with an upgraded installation...

Marc: I do not know how to test your issue, but this probably needs to be directed at a public QuickEdit topic to get the attention of the original developer or someone else willing to take over development of it. I’m sure someone can come up with a solution.

Hi Jason, QuickEdit is a core feature, hold (held?) by Adam. A public thread doesn´t make sense, since noone has the 0.96.1 for testing In 0.96 everything is fine. I will test the issue on a fresh install the next hour. What definitely didn´t work after an upgrade 0.96->0.96.1:

Create a TV type "select multiple" or "checkbox" with several options. Then change the values with QuickEdit in the frontend -> only one value is getting saved.

As I said, I´ll test this on a fresh install now...

QuickEdit is not a core feature, and was originally developed by Adam. It is an add-on, like anything else that consists of modules, snippets, and/or plugins. You consider it a core feature simply because it is currently distributed with the core.

I don’t see how this behavior would differ from 0.9.6 to 0.9.6.1, but fair enough on the public thread, and let me know what you figure out.

And my real point was, I need someone to pick up maintenance and development of this add-on, for 0.9.6.x as well as getting it refactored for 0.9.7, as I don’t think Adam is that active with development anymore (correct me if I’m wrong)...

You´re right, thanks for clarifing this. Nevertheless it´s one of the killer apps in MODx. And it doesn´t work, I just tried a fresh install (rev 3013) and only one value is saved. It´s very serious because I know a lot of users who use this for changing values via the frontend.

I don´t know either. I´ll post it in the tracker and in the public thread tomorrow.

This is very important since it is a very good add-on. I´ll also try to contact Adam.

Most peculiar... the manager/index.php file is missing the final closing php tag. I’ve been using it locally for some time, and it’s working fine. I downloaded 2784 from SVN, it is also missing the closing tag, and is working fine on my loripsum site. But I just uploaded the latest from SVN for my sottwell site, and it wouldn’t run the login script until I added the final php tags.

Even more odd... I just checked my latest running 0.9.6 installations, and every single one of them is also missing the closing PHP tag in the manager index.php file. All of them are up and running with no errors, which surprised me.

And I just downloaded a fresh copy of the 0.9.6 zip file from the downloads page, and it’s missing the closing tag in that file as well!

So I guess this is a typo that’s been kicking around for a while.

EDIT: FYI, I just looked at an older 0.9.5 installation, and it does have the closing tag (and it doesn’t seem as if any other code was missing from the 0.9.6 file, unless it was added between versions).

Closing tags are being removed from pure PHP files on purpose, as they serve no purpose, other than to invite people to include extra line-endings after it which can produce "magic" white-space in the output.
