Yii comes with internationalisation (i18n) "out of the box". There are instructions in the manual as to how to configure Yii to use i18n, but little information all in one place on how to fully integrate it into the bootstrap menu. This document attempts to remedy that.

I was recently assigned with the task of integrating several extensive forms into a WordPress website. These forms comprised numerous fields, intricate validation rules, dynamic fields (one to many relationships) and even interdependencies, where employing PHP inheritance could mitigate code duplication.

During development and depending on your setup you may need to use the options forceCopy or linkAssets of the asset manager to work around possible file-system and permission issues.

When one needs to select a record in a table that do not have related records through a relation, it is generally suggested to use a subquery. Personnaly, I prefer a high level approach, and I have a method to do it with scopes.

I recently built a tarpit for bad bots.

This wiki is to show you how to use jQuery get and JSON to get data from a dropdown/any form field and fill form fields with the values instantaneously. First, I'll give example use cases of what I'm going to teach you so you can quickly see if this is for you.

I was playing around with another PHP framework which I didn't really liked anyway but it had simple and nice integration for PHP built in web server so I decided to write one for Yii (since this is my primary PHP framework)

In SQL, wildcard characters can be used in "LIKE" expressions; the percent sign (%) matches zero or more characters, and underscore (_) a single character. Sometimes users are not familiar with these or they are using different ones like (*) and (+) similar to regular expressions. My colleages do so and then i decided to add this feature by extending CbCriteria. Especially adding a new parameter $...

Lets say we have 3 modules (customer, user, admin) in an application and we need, separate logins for each module.

1. The Main template holds the header, main navigation and footer
2. One or more layout files holds the column setup, sub navigation etc.

var formData = new FormData($("#post-form")[0]);
$.ajax({
    url: '<?php echo Yii::app()->createUrl("forumPost/uploadPost"); ?>',
    type: 'POST',
    data: formData,
    datatype:'json',

If you develop your Yii project on both Windows and Mac, there can be a problem setting up the configuration unless the configurations for both system are identical. On my machines I have the following configurations:

I needed all messages with their translation into javascript. This is my solution:

Please, note. This article is entirely based on a work done by me colleague developer, who hasn't got account on this webpage and also hasn't got time for writing this article. I'm writing it for him. I will try to forward him any comments that may appear, but can't assure if/when he'll be able to answer.
