I had a similar problem where the localconfig.php file got emptied (not erased, just emptied). The problem occurred when there was no available disc space on the server.

Any news about Contao 3?
Does anyone know when Contao 3 is planned to be released?
After some investigation (German is not my main language) I finally found out that this is a known problem, that has been fixed and will be implemented i version 2.10.

Weird. Today I just realized that one of my other sites had just stopped working. I don't know for how long the site has been down, because I don't visit it that often. But, just like before, the...
I totally agree.
Hi,
I client contacted me the other day. Their website had stopped working. The only thing that worked was the error message that showed up.
After some investigation I found out that the file...
I think CS3 has the possibility to save an animated gif. Just make sure you use "Save for web..." and that the animation is enabled there.
I have posted a ticket:
http://dev.contao.org/issues/2893
To recreate the issue, do the following:
1. Download the latest Contao package as zip.
2. Unzip the file
3. Open system/themes/default/images/loading.gif in Safari (Version 5.0.3 on Mac)
4. Try...
Did som more tests on a brand new mac. Firefox, Chrome, Opera seems to view the file ok. But the latest Safari (5.0.3) shows graphic errors.
I did the test by downloading the latest Contao package...

Hi,
On every installation of Contao I have made (10+), the spinning loading icon shows graphical errors. (See attached image) The error is visible regardles of computer being used. With that in...
Hi,
Is it just on my installation or does anyone else have problem using the "Download(s) Content Element" to download zip-files?
Imagefiles and Word-documents show up fine. But when I select a...
But if it is possible to do a XSS attack by using the then the attacker already must have access to the backend to do any harm. Therefore I don't see this to be of any problem.
Too bad i'm not such a talented developer to make that into an extension. But if anyone would make that work I would be the first one to use that extension.
Is this a public extension? If so,...
I don't know the details how XSS works, but can anyone explain in a simple way how a would be used in a XSS attack? I don't see how that would be possible.
Good thoughts from all of you. From your post Vera, I did a simple mockup to demonstrate a possible solution.
The first image shows the settings for a news archive. Here the option to enable a...
Hmm, I found this forum post by Leo about the [nbsp]. He says that it is a Contao specific feature. Not used in the original TinyMCE.
He also says that is has to be there to "escape the XSS...
To remove the [nbsp] you can edit tinyCustom.php. Edit this line into this:
entities : "60,lt,62,gt,173,shy",
For more information about tinyCustom.php and customizing TinyMCE, please read...
After been using Contao for almost three years now I find it a pleasure to work with. It's not perfect, but it's getting better and better with each update. I have not found a better solution.
...
Of course, sometimes I don't even think... I'll try that. Thanks!
Just as the title describes:
Is it possible to make a login form in the frontend, that logs you into the backend?
Is there a module I can use for this or do I have to build my own from scratch?
Don't forget to specify in "dcaconfig.php" where the custom editor will be shown:
// Use the custom RTE configuration for text elements
...
For your interest, here is the custom code I changed in tinyCustom.php:
The buttons:
theme_advanced_buttons1 :...
The problem only occurs when pasting unformatted text, by pressing Shift+alt+cmd+v (Mac).
But since I did this little fix on this thread I can paste using only cmd+v and the problem is gone: ...
Thank you!
I used this little code in the tinyCustom.php file to clean pasted content.
paste_remove_spans : true,
I haven't done any excessive testing but hopefully it will be enough.
Thanks!
At last I have managed to rework the appearance of the ugly and not so intuitive TinyMCE editor.
The more buttons and controls available in rich text editors for the clients, the more...
How do I remove some of the buttons in the TinyMCE toolbar? Maybe a tutorial somewhere you can point me to?
Is it possible to modify TinyMCE to automatically remove formatting of pasted content? I mean automatically and not by pressing a special button in the toolbar.
If possible I would like to have...
I like WYSIWYG editors, but sometimes they are just annoying.
When pasting some (non formatted) text into the TinyMCE editor all goes well. Until I click save. Then, the page reloads and there is...
In the end I went back and used the Taxonomy as the filter.
For the descriptions for each category I had to create another Catalog. In this Catalog I created entries with descriptions for each...
Hi,
How can I show a thumbnail of a catalog item in the backend listing? Right now I'm using this code to display the title and an image.
{{title}}
{{image::w=60&h=60}}
The thumbnail will...
Ok I solved it by editing the ModuleCatalogFeatured.php file. I commented out line 85:
//$filterurl = $this->parseFilterUrl(array());
Not update safe though....
*bump*
Anyone?
Hi,
On my website I have at the footer some randomly items from the catalog. These are displayed using the featured module and are shown on ALL pages.
The problem is, on some pages, I have a...
Nevermind, solved it in another (not perfect) way. But if anyone know what causes the "page not found" error, then let me know..
It must be something wrong with the filter-parsing of the URL.
This is the page: http://thesnowroom.se/en/the-childrens- ... egory.html

Hi,
I'm building a site for a design company who wants to display all their products. I'm using the Catalog to display the products in different categories.
At first I used the Taxonomy to...
Why not use the insert tag that automaticly resizes images on the fly?
For example:

Hi,
As a website I built for a client gets bigger and bigger, I realize that it gets more and more difficult to find files and images in the file manager. There are several news and blog sections...
Hi Medianomaly,
Very kind of you! This should be what I need to get things working. You should copy this information to the tutorial section in this forum for future reference.

Hi,
Guess this is really simple, but if you never have done it before, it sure helps if someone points you in the right direction.
I need to write a custom php-script that fires each time a new...
Thank you very much! :D
If I edit the ce_comments.tpl it will only affect comment forms that is published as a content element or as a module. But the comment form that is attached to a news item, will not be affected. :? ...
Hi,
I'm using the comment function on a news archive. What template should I use to edit the appearance of the comment form?
The com_default.tpl changes the actual comments. So far so good. But I...
Thanks a lot! :P
On a website I need some contact forms where a visitor can send e-mails to different persons at the company. One approach would be to create individual mail forms to each person, and then publish...
Wow, thanks Mike and everyone else! These different solutions will be good to have for future reference.
In my case, I solved the problem by adding some javascript code in the header that inserted...
Hi,
Does anyone know a way to have different versions of the mod_newslist template?
I have several news archives, and for one of them, I need to modify the mod_newslist template. But I haven't...
I struggled a long time before I found a real simple solution to my problem. Then I thought I just might share it here.
Problem:
You have a dropdown menu in the header. In Internet Explorer, the...
Yes it seems that it is only css-files that gets deleted. On my other TYPOlight installs I have other type of files that are unaffected. I think, according to my logs, that it is the weekly cron jobs...
Woohoo, you are my hero! I finally found out. Thanks qrczak! :D
Doesn't work. $this->time outputs nothing at all.
Nope, doesn't work. I changed the settings in backend and removed the timestamp, but no change on the output.
Did a test to show you how the...
I finally got my files back now. My hosting provider makes daily backups, so I never really had any panic. But I was lucky that the site didn't were released yet. That would not have been good.
...
But if I import the file in the CSS-editor, then I can't manually edit the file through FTP since it will get overwritten. Maybe you mean that if I put the CSS-filed in the tl_files folder they...
Really? I thought that only the CSS-files, that are being managed through the in-built CSS-editor, are being automatically updated on the daily cron job. And that way it's not a good idea to edit...
