Hello there, I've created a complex php contact form that I'm looking to implement into my contact page, but for some reason expression engine isn't recognizing the php code even though I've enabled it in my preferences. Here's what the form looks like, I've tried a few things like embedding the file instead of pasting the actual code...
I must be doing an obvious mistake but I can't figure it out. I am importing a date stored in a mysql database (it is stored by the ExpressionEngine CMS). It is a unix timestamp, i.e. seconds since 1/1/1970 00:00. So I'm doing something like this: DateTime dateTime = new System.DateTime(1970, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0); dateTime = dateTime.Add...

Hi, I'm building an expression engine 2.0-powered site that uses multiple languages (not using MSM aka multiple site manager, as the client did not want that approach). I am borrowing a few of the ideas from here: http://expressionengine.com/wiki/Multi_language_site_alternative/ however using cookies for the language selection as appos...
Hey SO, So I'm new to both Joomla and Expression Engine, and want to know if I can use it like I'd like. I've already made a full site, and would like to integrate blogging into the site.

This rule should not be applied to certain folders like images, swf and myphp. It works fine for the first two, so when I access domain.com/swf I ...

For example, this: <script src="{static_media}/js/jquery-1.4.min.js"></script> Instead of this: <script src="/static/js/jquery-1.4.m...

This is my stand...

Is there a place I can put this commonly used class for use in modules via $this->EE->load->library('mydb'); or, is there a way to load that class in one module when it’s located in the libraries folder of another module? ...
I'm using the native jQuery validation library to validate email addresses entered in a contact form. Since this is an Expression Engine site, I'm using its email validator as a server side backup. When I enter [email protected], jQuery says it's valid but when submitted, the Expression Engine validator says it is not valid. I know that validat...

Hi Everyone, I've been at this for a bit now. Basically, I'm needing to add a derived column to count the hits to a weblog entry in the database. The problem is, the hits are being totaled and shown on only on the first record. Any Ideas? I've emboldened the parts of the query I'm talking about. The query is below: SELECT DISTINCT(t.en...

Hi friends... So far I've been using custom cms. lately I developed own cms with CodeIgniter, and I'm actually happy.
