Since I used CGridView for a first time, I didn't like how it handled operations like sorting, filtering, changing page and etc using AJAX.

Sometimes we get lost trying to search by a HAS_MANY relation using CActiveRecord or CActiveDataProvider. This article is a series of drills that try to describe the practical techniques of searching by a HAS_MANY relation.

Hi :-) Is that you again? Welcome !! :-)

First declare an attribute to store the file name in the model class (either a form model or an active record model). Also declare a file validation rule for this attribute to ensure a file is uploaded with specific extension name.

This is a tutorial for how to add input text-Field, check-box, buttons in CGridView.

As seen in this post, Yii doesn't enforce how language is set and maintained within the session.

I saw many posts that community newbie is confuse in image/photo upload with random name. so I post this topic covering all useful things regarding to image/photo upload(not covering image attribute related functionality)

One aspect of User Interface Design has to do with the coherence of the design and the use of the colors between the different User Interface Components used.

The customary configuration of a Yii application includes just a single database section in the protected/config/main.php file, but it's easy to extend this to support more than one, tying each Model to one of the databases.

Most applications will have one or two sidebars and often you want to control the content that should appear in the sidebar based on the action. For example you will want to show something different on the homepage as opposed to some view page. While achieving this you generally also want to avoid putting the layout into each view, as that would mean if you wanted to change the layout (e.g. put the sidebar on the left instead of the right or do some funky layout which requires an additional div tag to be added) you'd have to go through every view, which does not achieve good code re-use. It is also bad practice to have lots of if statements in column2 layout just so that you can generate the sidebar correctly.
