[wp-testers] Two questions about wp-config.php
While I am on the subject on the subject of salting values (see previous post)... 1) Couldn't http://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/x.x/ be used to automatically fill-in the unique phrases, instead of letting the use open the file, copy/paste, and start the install. (maybe it's already the case...) WP has a superb installer that takes care of most things with a web interface, and these salting values are the only things that still require manually changing wp-config.php. It's an API, it should be machine-to-machine, not machine-to-human-to-copy-paste-in-file :) --- 2) While translating setup-config.php yesterday for the fr_FR /dist, I re-stumbled on a piece of code, and therefore remembered an old question of mine: http://trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk/wp-admin/setup-config.php#L160 Obviously, this code replaces the putyourdbnamehere co values with the entries indicated by the user in the setup interface, by way of a simple regex'ing (well, string replacement...). Thing is, in fr_FR we do translate these putyourdbnamehere co values in our own /dist/wp-config-sample.php (i.e. putyourdbnamehere becomes votre-nom-de-bdd), for obvious reasons: making it understandable by francophones who have to read fill the doc (we also translate the whole phpDoc text, for the same reasons). As I understand it, if one translator was to translate putyourdbnamehere co, he should also translate them exactly in setup-config.php, or else the setup code would fail, right? So, the question: would'nt it be safer to have the string replacement be on another target than the original English text, instead of risking making it all break just by lack of awareness of the whole process? DB_NAME and friends seem excellent candidate, with the code replacing the whole line instead of just the value itself. That would require real-deal regexp, but it's no unheard-of in these parts, right? :) -- Xavier Borderie ___ wp-testers mailing list wp-testers@lists.automattic.com http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-testers
[wp-testers] Uploading media problem in WP 2.7 RC1
Hi, I am new to this list so sorry is a solution has already being
discussed.
There is a known problem with the upload media feature in WP 2.7 RC1?
I have a problem with that... it says it cannot locate temp directory
and temp directory missing...
I already added this to wp-config.php :
define('WP_TEMP_DIR', '/tmp');
That dir exists and it is being used, e.g. wp-super-cache... so the dir
should be reachable to my wp config
Any quick solution to this?
I made the BIG mistake to upgrade a heavy traffic live site and as you can
imagine.. I am in a problem now... I have being uploading photos manually by
ftp.
Thanks in advanced.

Re: [wp-testers] Verifying core update works for the real 2.7 to 2.7.1
Unless I'm grossly mistaken, the .# versions are built on an as needed basis due to new security issues popping up (zero day hacks and the like) and/or a major issue or issues are found with the 2.7 series. Once a milestone release goes gold it shifts from trunk to branch and minor security/bug fix updates are made from that particular branch. There's no continuous development once 2.7-final is released and goes to branch that I know of.

Re: [wp-testers] Two questions about wp-config.php
The problem is that there's no good way to get truly random numbers. -Reading /dev/urandom works okay on Linux boxes, but not on Windows. -Windows can have the COM class available to it, which would let you call CAPICOM.Utilities.1-GetRandom() from the Windows Cryptography COM library. That would give secure bytes. You'd have to check for class_exists on COM first. -PHP 5.3 contains openssl_random_psuedo_bytes, so that could be an option as well if that function_exists. Maybe a generic function designed to return secure random bytes under a number of platforms is called for? This has to already exist somewhere, can't we just reuse somebody else's code?

Re: [wp-testers] Change Attached to Gallery?
Hi, By galleries I assume you mean two posts? So that you can show the same image in two posts galleries? No, I don't think so. I'm not even sure if it's a planned feature. It would probably take quite a change to the database to store multiple parent associations for images. I could be wrong though. Galleries tend to be hard to build especially without some coding knowledge. In my experience anyway. My sister is an artist and I had to custom build her portfolio for her. I would definitely support such a feature, but I think it would be a 2.8, 2.9 or even 3.0 feature. Again if I'm wrong and you can do this please correct me.

Hi, I wouldn't think it'd be hard to just add extra id's to a single object... Well yes, but no.

Re: Subject: Re: [wp-testers] Change Attached to Gallery?
2.8 or 2.9 its likely i would suggest :) Media handling will be getting an overhaul for 2.8/2.9, i'm not sure how much of it will show through in 2.8 though.. depends on how much work gets done (There wasn't enough time in 2.7 for it) Using a serialized array is really bad for performance in this case, as you cant quickly look it up when theres a high number of attachments. The current attachment-post is based on the post_parent field in the database, which limits it to having 1 parent. I'm working on using the Taxonomy system as a Gallery system, I've got the core-parts working, just need to get around to finalising the UI and releasing it, I'll offer it up for inclusion into the Core for 2.8, but someone else will probably have thought of a better way to manage it during the redesign anyway :) - I should note, that ShaneF attempted to get multi-gallery support into 2.7, But there wasnt much of a following behind getting it in in its then current state. 2008/12/9 Paul Robinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, I wouldn't think it'd be hard to just add extra id's to a single object...

Re: [wp-testers] Two questions about wp-config.php
It highly depends on the servers security configurations, Some hosts the auto-creator will work perfectly, On others it wont work at all. This was the exact reason i worked FTP into the Plugin updater/installer, sometimes security is too high for other methods, It'd be nice to see the WordPress installer also use FTP if available for the configuration, We'll see what happens in time :) 2008/12/9 Musing Minds [EMAIL PROTECTED] With my host I have to open and edit wp-config for the database information anyway. Localhost only works with my xampp not with production blogs... -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Xavier Borderie Sent: Monday, December 08, 2008 11:08 AM To: wp-testers@lists.automattic.com Subject: Re: [wp-testers] Two questions about wp-config.php Bad idea. It'd be safer to write a really good random number generator function into your installer program. Sending your secret keys over the internet kind of defeats the point, really. The secret-key generator on wp.org is a convenience, not intended to be the end-all be-all of security. I thought of that, yeah :) I imagine the secret-key generator is in PHP, so there would be little work putting that into setup-config. Still, having to open and edit wp-config should be a thing of the past. -- Xavier Borderie ___ wp-testers mailing list wp-testers@lists.automattic.com http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-testers ___ wp-testers mailing list wp-testers@lists.automattic.com http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-testers ___ wp-testers mailing list wp-testers@lists.automattic.com http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-testers
Re: [wp-testers] Uploading media problem in WP 2.7 RC1
WP_TEMP_DIR only affects the Upgrader/Installer features i believe.
I have a feeling that the errors you're hitting might be related to the
permissions on the upload folder, Quite often you need to chmod it to 777
for you to be able to write to the uploads folder..
I cant actually think of a reason this would've broken between 2.6 and 2.7,
IIRC there were no changes to media uploading, so thats the reason its
pushed my response to the filesystem issues.

Hi, I am new to this list so sorry is a solution has already being
discussed.
There is a known problem with the upload media feature in WP 2.7 RC1?
I have a problem with that... it says it cannot locate temp directory
and temp directory missing...
I already added this to wp-config.php :
define('WP_TEMP_DIR', '/tmp');
That dir exists and it is being used, e.g. wp-super-cache... so the dir
should be reachable to my wp config
Any quick solution to this?
I made the BIG mistake to upgrade a heavy traffic live site and as you can
imagine.. I am in a problem now... I have being uploading photos manually
by
ftp.
Thanks in advanced.

Re: Subject: Re: [wp-testers] Change Attached to Gallery?
I thought there was a reason someone hadn't already used a serialized array there it was ready to smack me in the face like a house brick. :) I hope it does come in by 2.8 I can think of some really usefull things for it. ;) I use a custom query to gather the first attachment for each post, it uses the menu_order that way you can customize the image it pulls up using the reorderer (Is that a word?) in the gallery. Not quite as complex as what Emily was asking, but I suppose it shows that you can still do some good things with the current db layout. It's a pity that time ran out, gives us a reason to test 2.8 though. :) Thanks. Paul. 2008/12/9 DD32 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2.8 or 2.9 its likely i would suggest :) Media handling will be getting an overhaul for 2.8/2.9, i'm not sure how much of it will show through in 2.8 though.. depends on how much work gets done (There wasn't enough time in 2.7 for it) Using a serialized array is really bad for performance in this case, as you cant quickly look it up when theres a high number of attachments. The current attachment-post is based on the post_parent field in the database, which limits it to having 1 parent. I'm working on using the Taxonomy system as a Gallery system, I've got the core-parts working, just need to get around to finalising the UI and releasing it, I'll offer it up for inclusion into the Core for 2.8, but someone else will probably have thought of a better way to manage it during the redesign anyway :) - I should note, that ShaneF attempted to get multi-gallery support into 2.7, But there wasnt much of a following behind getting it in in its then current state. 2008/12/9 Paul Robinson [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, I wouldn't think it'd be hard to just add extra id's to a single object... Well yes, but no. Thinking about it a little more, you could use a serialized array which would allow you to store more that one ID in a single field, but the problem would then be the code that would understand that array, At the minute it only takes one ID, but it would have to be able to take multiple ID's. Then you would need to build some sort of extention to the admin... Sorry, sometimes I end up getting away with myself.

Re: [wp-testers] Uploading media problem in WP 2.7 RC1
I had a similar problem it turned out it was the uploads directory being
wrong in the misc settings. I generally got a permissions not sufficent
error but now and again it would change to a temp directory error. Can't
remember exactly, but it's worth a check.

Re: [wp-testers] Uploading media problem in WP 2.7 RC1
It is 777 already... I even thought it was my server .. and installed a
brand new 2.6.5 and it worked just fine...
What I did notice remembering now is that before I upgraded to 2.7 RC1... I
was having uploading file issues in the site (WP 2.6.5).. the reason to
upgrade was that
Besides file permissions in the wp folders what can be?
/tmp is 777

Re: [wp-testers] Change Attached to Gallery?
You can use the URL of the file you uploaded on one gallery and use it on the new gallery, but instead of uploading, you put it in the File URL section. Or I just might be talking gibberish. My apologies if I don't make any sense. I blame lack of sleep.
