I am looking at the latest nightly. Looks like the configuration.php class is changed. The vars are all changed to public which i guess means anything that referred to that file like a call to the database name will break. Is their documentation about how to fix an extension to work?

Declaring vars as public is actual the total opposite to what you believe :-)

Yes - its far too early to run Joomla 1.6 alpha on live sites - please read:

Not in favor of this. Everybody knows it as 1.6 from the beginning, so that's set in people's minds. It actually has happened in the past as well, when what was going to be Joomla 1.1 was then renumbered to 1.5. From what I can recall, the confusion was far bigger than the higher version number gained.

Hey guys,

Just wondering if there is plans to add a META TITLE section into the article manager/ menu manager similiar to what the SEO patch provides currently for Joomla 1.5?

I do understand meta isn't entirely important to SEO anymore but its more of a usability/accessibility feature to allow individual meta settings on an individual article/menu item basis, is there a reason the Joomla development team leave it out, or is there another area this kind of thing can be editted which I haven't found? (not entirely impossible)

Thanks,

Andy

Hello faris,
please know that alpha2 is already way outdated. A lot has happened since. If you want to know the current development status and maybe contribute, please look here: http://docs.joomla.org/Developers#Contr ... evelopment

Hello,

I have twice installed the latest Alpha 2 - not nightly build.

Installation progressed flawlessly, uploaded configuration.php.

As soon as I enter the site URL I get:

Quote:
"Fatal error: Call to undefined function mb_strpos() in /home/mpc/public_html/j16/libraries/joomla/utilities/string.php on line 61"


I can login to Administrator without any issues, but as soon as I select a menu option:

Quote:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function mb_strtolower() in /home/mpc/public_html/j16/libraries/joomla/utilities/string.php on line 141


I have looked hard at my installation, and it seems fine.

Any ideas please?

Thanks.

I would advice to use nightly build or set check out code from svn trunk repository. http://joomlacode.org/svn/joomla/development/trunk/
From my experience I have not encountered lot of fatal errors.

OK I found the answer and it is significant.

I needed to recompile Apache on my server with the php Multi Byte String Function, and then 1.6 worked perfectly.

AFAIK default Apache installs - notably those by cPanel which are probably the majority - do not include, mb_str which could cause a major issue on wider releases -and quite an obscure one.

Developers - you might want to look at the use of mb_str, checking for it during installation or trapping it in some way.

Thanks.

apc, we already looked at it and fixed the issue in our subversion repository. alpha2 is completely outdated and wont be of help for reporting errors. If you want to help out with development, please take a look at my previous post.

How do I access the subversion repository? I would like to report from the latest code.

Please see the aforementioned post. The link to docs.joomla.org contains all the necessary data.

When adding a new category I see a summary of category access rules.
If I want to make changes in the category access rules I have to go true a lot of tabs to do so.

Why isn't it possible to make the images in the summery click-able to switch between inherit, allow and deny?
That would make it a lot easier and clear.

If this is not a option I would love to know why it isn't.

Why don't the devs wrap up the svn code and release it as Alpha 3 :p

Create a new announcement, explain TODOs and invite testers.

I like Joomla and would like to help, but I really can't find a list of blocking bugs for Beta 1.

We feel that we are pretty close to beta and releasing yet another alpha would not raise the moral in the community. Also, an alpha is defined more or less as a technical preview, not as something that we would want to make extensive bug testing on, since the target is moving to fast. For example, if you would provide us with bug reports concerning the #__components table or translations in Joomla, these would basically be useless, since the table has since been dropped and the translations have been completely overhauled. Similar things will happen with comments, routing of URLs, the ACL UI, the frontend output and JDatabase and JQuery. A beta is something that we deem as feature stable enough, so that we can ask for general bug reports.

I'm looking at the current SVN version of 1.6 (build no. 14482) and the "Menu Assignment" dialogue for modules looks like a backward step compared with previous version of Joomla. I'm thinking of how this will look on a big site - it's going to be a long list and we'll not have the handy option of using cntrl-click and shift-click that were possible on the old versions.

Also on this subject, wouldn't it make sense to have the option (on complex sites say) to use some sort of "script" to define where the modules appear? Some sort of simple XML file to define where modules appear or do not appear would fit the bill for me.

If "pretty close" means "within a month", then surely Beta is better than Alpha. Otherwise I'd welcome Alpha 3 as opposed to an unpredictable svn nightly build for the months to come.

What do you gain, when we take a random SVN version, label it Alpha3 and put it up on joomla.org? The only difference between now and then would be, that one SVN revision has the name "Alpha3", instead of 14456... Changes will still go at a fast pace and an Alpha3 would be outdated as fast as any other SVN revision.

Joomla is the best. Just wondering when the devolpers will include automatic data feeds to popular classified sites like ebay, google, yahoo,backpage,craigslist, etc. A. Good example of this is autoxloo.com. that's on my wishlist and would be the ultimate.
Thanks
Tony

Don't think that will ever enter core, more something for a 3rd party developer.

This is not what I meant. That's why I wrote that I'd welcome Alpha 3 as opposed to an unpredictable svn nightly build... I assume that Alpha is not "a random SVN version", but a bit more quality tested, with none of the major features broken. I had in mind a feature freeze for two weeks, fix bugs, release Alpha 3, and then off to Beta with added features.

What you are describing as Alpha3 is roughly what we wanted as a beta. An alpha is really just a technical preview and not more than the simple checkout from SVN that I described.
