On tenterhooks I am!
My whole life I always thought the expression was tenderhooks.
Thank you, I could have embarrassed myself in front of a lot of people.

Uses Runway. Uses Collections for news posts.
Pages were constructed in the Perch editor, using a template that combines Blocks and Repeaters to enable the editor to create page layouts with sections and columns, with a 'Super Repeater' I made with some simple JS that allows you to chose the type of content to put in a column.
Uses Runway, with apps: Blog, Forms, Collections and my app Form Builder, to enable the client to easily create Perch forms themselves.

It seems we are stuck. I worry that PHP7.4 compatibility issues will force us away from this CMS and cost a lot of development time to migrate to a CMS that work with newer versions of PHP.
I have over 40 Perch sites that would need to be re-purposed.

Following thread.

Thanks, will check that out.

Nice one Chris.
-
In the Form responses, Perch helpfully shows the 'path' of the form.
Is it possible to show this in the submission email too?
-
-
Very much appreciated, thank you.
I ended up putting the load function style stuff in perch/plugins/ui to keep it tidy.
Thanks again.

How can we add more style options in Redactor under the Formatting dropdown as described on this page: https://imperavi.com/redactor/…ting/add-formatting-tags/
I'm not referring to adding buttons eg. bold, underline, etc. I'd like to add <small> to the formatting list.
-
That works perfectly. Thanks very very much.

Thanks for this.
Just a tip for everyone... if you have a 'dark' themed site, you can switch to 'dark' captcha by adding
to the form code, eg:
You can also add this too
if you're tight for space.
My question is:
If users forget to click the captcha V2 box, they silently fail and see the success message, yet get added to spam.
How could we disable the submit button until CAPTCHA is validated, or show an error message if they've forgotten to tick the box?

There is some activity in the docs repo. Pull requests are getting merged.
But it's hard to know what's going on. It could be that we suddenly get version 3.x or 4 even... or nothing. In terms of communication it wouldn't take much. If Perch HQ surfaced a few times a month to say 'we are still working on it'. That would be so helpful.
I agree. The fact that they aren't posting is a real worry, because obvious damage is being done (to brand and tribe) by radio silence.
Drew and Rachel have always played their cards close to their chest, being careful not to promise a delivery date for features for example, which is understandable. But to go so quiet is un characteristic.
I found Drew's post in this thread quite alarming. The tone of it seemed a bit 'I give up'. I do hope they're ok.
Perhaps they are working on selling Perch off and don't feel they can announce anything until the deal is agreed. We can only guess.
What I hope is, is that they've formed a band called Deep Perchple and they are currently on tour having a great time.
Either way, drewm & rachelandrew, my thoughts are with you, as I expect many others here are too.

Thanks very much. They are good solutions. I appreciate your time.
-
Thanks, I want the editor to be able to place a link in the nav when and wherever they choose.
-
I have an archive page in blog. Visiting /news/category/category-name will show a list of all the posts in that category.
I want to add a link to the main navigation which is a link to /news/category/important-updates
If I create a new page and give it the URL segment '/news/category/important-updates' Runway creates a new page for this url so it's impossible to reach the category archive intended.
How can we create items in nav, that as with normal Perch, are 'Page already exists or is a link only'?
-
Thanks, I really appreciate your time Hussain. That is it. Simple.
I bet there must be a way to call the 'catPath' which would give us the set and the cat together.

I'm using the archive.php pretty much out of the box from the Blog install.

Thanks, so what should I do to fix the issue? I'd just like a clean url to news categories.

Hi, I have a Perch Runway site (v2.8.34) with Blog (5.0).
On the archive page, I have the routes as shown on the docs: https://docs.grabaperch.com/addons/blog/runway/config/
Like so:
news/[year:year]
news/[year:year]/[i:month]
news/category/[slug:cat]
news/tag/[slug:tag]
news/author/[slug:author]
news/author/[slug:author]
I have added a category of 'test' to one of the posts
But, visiting https://www.hfhcare.co.uk/news/category/test displays no results.
However this URL does work: https://www.hfhcare.co.uk/news/archive?cat=news/test but does not add 'Test' to the heading 'Archive of...'
I must have missed a setting or template somewhere. Can anyone help?
