How to Show Breezing Form Data in Front End With Content Builder

Hi Ezent,

let me list all necessary - and even the tiniest - steps to create an administrative panel with ContentBuilder + BreezingForms, I will really describe all steps that I think that might be useful for other readers as well:

- Install BreezingForms (at least 1.7.3 backport 3)

- Install ContentBuilder

- In BreezingForms, create your form as usually

- In ContentBuilder, open the views

- Click "New"

- In the new view's first tab, choose the source (com_breezingforms)

- Enter a name for your view

- Enable email notifications

- Click "Advanced Options" button

- Choose "Backend" in "Display In"

- In "Show Columns" check "Select", "Edit", "Publish" to display the administrative columns

- SAVE YOUR VIEW

- Choose the BreezingForms form you would like to connect with this view

- SAVE YOUR VIEW

- Check "Editable" for elements (in BreezingForms you usually want to edit all fields)

- SAVE YOUR VIEW

- Choose "Edit by Type"

- Check "Include In List" for all elements you would like to display in the list

- Open the Content Template tab

- Check the "Create Sample" checkbox

- Open the Permissions tab

- Uncheck all permissions in Backend panel and check "List Access", "View", "New", "Edit", "Publish" and "Article Settings" for the Super Users group --- do _NOT_ use any of the checkboxes in "Force Permission On Owner", as this would be for a different use-case.

- Uncheck "Limited Article Options"

- SAVE YOUR VIEW

- CLOSE YOUR VIEW

- PUBLISH YOUR VIEW

- Hover over Joomla's Components => ContentBuilder Views and you should see the view for your custom admin panel.

- Open it and you should be able to add, edit, delete, publish records and edit the underlying article settings.

Hope I covered everything but this should be it. The whole process is very similar for the built-in form builder, except that there you would need to create an Editable Template (which is given here already with the BreezingForm itself).

Mac OS X: Wake Up Servers Using Wake-on-LAN ( WOL ) Command Utility

know how to send WOL command using Linux or FreeBSD wake command. But, how do I send Wake on LAN (WOL) frames to hosts on a local Ethernet network using Apple OS X operating systems to wake up my servers or nas devices?


You need to use wakeonlan Perl script that generates and transmits a Wake-On-LAN (WOL) "Magic Packet", used for restarting machines that have been soft powered-down (ACPI D3-warm state).


Download wakeonlan

Open a terminal and type the following curl command:
$ cd /tmp
$ curl http://gsd.di.uminho.pt/jpo/software/wakeonlan/downloads/wakeonlan-0.41.tar.gz -o out.tag.gz
Untar the tar ball with the help of tar command, enter:
$ tar xvf out.tag.gz
Sample outputs:

x wakeonlan-0.41/
x wakeonlan-0.41/README
x wakeonlan-0.41/Makefile.PL
x wakeonlan-0.41/META.yml
x wakeonlan-0.41/SIGNATURE
x wakeonlan-0.41/Changes
x wakeonlan-0.41/MANIFEST
x wakeonlan-0.41/examples/
x wakeonlan-0.41/examples/lab001.wol
x wakeonlan-0.41/wakeonlan

Install Perl script

Type the following mkdir command:
$ mkdir ~/bin/

Copy /tmp/wakeonlan-0.41/wakeonlan to ~/bin/ directory with the cp command:
$ cp /tmp/wakeonlan-0.41/wakeonlan ~/bin/

How do I send WOL on OS X?

The syntax is:
$ ~/bin/wakeonlan server-mac-address-here

For example, if nas01 server has 00:08:9b:c4:30:30 mac address, enter:
$ ~/bin/wakeonlan 00:08:9b:c4:30:30
Sample outputs:
Sending magic packet to 255.255.255.255:9 with 00:08:9b:c4:30:30

Other options
    -i ip_address
        set the destination IP address
        default: 255.255.255.255 (the limited broadcast address)
    -p port
        set the destination port
        default: 9 (the discard port)
    -f file
        uses file as a source of hardware addresses

Apple computer wake for network access (WOL) setting

If you want other users to be able to access your Apple OS X based computer’s shared resources, such as shared printers/files/folders or iTunes playlists, even when your computer is in sleep mode. Open System Preferences > choose "Energy Saver preferences". This set options that control your computer’s energy use including WOL for all Mac Based server and client systems:

Make sure you select the option "Wake for network access" so that other users can wake up your computer using WOL magic packet.

Work on ISP Config site before domain name Resolves

Hi,

I would like to create a new site on my ISPConfig server and set it entirely up with content (html & database etc.) before moving the domain name over to the new IP address.

How can I access and work the site on the ISPConfig server, before the domain resolves? I believe there is a way using the server IP address?

i.e. http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8080/mysite.com or something to that extent?

Thanks in advance! 

 

  ANSWER:

 This will not work.

What does work is to add the domain in question to your hosts file pointing to the server.

If you are using Windows, open c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

  AND

If you are using Linux , # sudo nano /etc/hosts
 

 In it add:

Code:

IP_OF_ISPconfig_SERVER      www.domainname.com
IP_OF_ISPconfig_SERVER      domainname.com

Now save the file, and restart your browser to reload the hosts file.
You should now be able to access the www.domainname.com

Magento pre-checks – how to install curl, gd, mcrypt, and pdo using cpanel whm

I searched for hours and hours after I attempted to install Magento on a godaddy vps only to get this:

Your server does not meet the following requirements in order to install Magento.

The following requirements failed, please contact your hosting provider in order to receive assistance with meeting the system requirements for Magento:

• You are missing the curl extension
• You are missing the gd extension
• You are missing the mcrypt extension
• You are missing the pdo_mysql extension
• You are missing the pdo extension

The following requirements were successfully met:

• You have PHP 5.2.0 (or greater)
• Safe Mode is off
• You have MySQL 4.1.20 (or greater)
• You have the dom extension
• You have the hash extension
• You have the iconv extension
• You have the pcre extension
• You have the simplexml extension

After hours of searching I found “pecl install pdo” which worked great to address the pdo and pdo_mysql extension issues.  But sadly, “pecl install curl” did nothing (btw, its not supposed to – but I was hopeful).  I found a lot of information about updating the php.ini – most of which talked about removing the ; from the lines required to enable curl, gd, and mcrypt.  Which I did – then restarted apache, then restarted my server, then rebooted my laptop… ok, the laptop was because I loaded patches to it completely unrelated to my server problem, but why not throw that in there?

I found several posts saying “just run /scripts/easyapache”.  Most of these posts assume a certain level of knowledge that I obviously didn’t have.  Once I found that I can actually just type “/scripts/easyapache” at an SSH command line (I know I may have just ‘assumed’ a level of knowledge you may not have but keep reading, it gets easy!)  I ran easyapache and was presented with a text based menu that made no sense to me.  I felt like I was on the right track, but still not there.  The forum where I found the easyapache hint (http://forums.theplanet.com/index.php?showtopic=26527) had several comments with questions about what it does and how to use it – but one comment caught my eye by Erwin:

In CPanel 7, you can now do this in WHM by going to the Software section and choosing: Update Apache
Then choose mcrypt or any other module you want to recompile PHP with.
And it will do so automatically.  Similar to easyapache, but easier to use.  I upgraded to PHP 4.3.2 just like that with the modules I want.

So I tried that – realizing the post was pretty old and my screens might be very different.  They were, but I was able to work it out. I went to

• “Main >> Software >> EasyApache (Apache Update)”.
• Then I selected the PHP Encryption / E-commerce option.
• Then “start customizing based on profile”.
• From there I selected Apache 2.2 (I was currently running 2.0),
• clicked Next and selected php5, selected build 5.3.2,
• scroll to the bottom of the page and click ““
• Now we are COOKING! – you can now select curl, gd, mcrypt, pdo, and a whole host of other options.

After selecting those options, I clicked ““.  Now it goes and goes while building apache with all of the options you selected – NO COMPILING, MAKE, MAKE INSTALL, ETC!  It does all of that for you!
I go back to my magento-check.php page and I’m in magento precheck heaven:

Congratulations! Your server meets the requirements for Magento.

• You have PHP 5.2.0 (or greater)
• Safe Mode is off
• You have MySQL 4.1.20 (or greater)
• You have the curl extension
• You have the dom extension
• You have the gd extension
• You have the hash extension
• You have the iconv extension
• You have the mcrypt extension
• You have the pcre extension
• You have the pdo extension
• You have the pdo_mysql extension
• You have the simplexml extension

HowTo Enable or disable modules in Apache

You can enable or disable any apache module using a2enmod and a2dismod. You don’t need to edit the conf file for that unless you are having some problem with this method. The syntax of these commands is really simple:
To enable a module:

sudo a2enmod module_name

To disable a module:

sudo a2dismod module_name

For instance, to enable mod_expires, execute sudo a2enmod expires in the terminal. If you see the following output, you can be sure that it has been enabled.

dpac@dpac-laptop:~$ sudo a2enmod expires Enabling module expires. Run '/etc/init.d/apache2 restart' to activate new configuration!

To disable mod_expires:

sudo a2dismod expires

Restart the server after enabling the module.

sudo service apache2 restart

Or

sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

PS: On linux systems, you can use auto-complete feature by pressing tab with a2enmod and a2dismod. It will show list of mods installed on your system.
