CMenu comes with a lot of great customization options built in but sometimes you need it to do more.

First things first,follow the instructions in fr0d0z's article to set up WordPress.Regarding the WpController,I did not use an index view.So the code for WpController is

class WpController extends Controller
{
    public function init()
    {
	 // note that we disable the layout
        $this->layout = false;
        parent::init();
    }

This article intends to summarize the steps taken to set up PHPUnit and Selenium for a Yii project, with IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate (the IDE). It was done on Mac OS X 10.6.

In this article you'll learn how to send additional form data when uploading files using XUpload widget

I normally create a files folder and I allocate it within my www one, that is where I keep my css, js, images files. So, even though you can place it where ever you wish and for the sake of the example, I will use the files folder name.

A big problem I've hit with the Yii-Bootstrap extension is that all AJAX requests are initializing Bootstrap because of preload. This is a huge waste of resources, especially when using AJAX-based file uploaders that split the file into chunks. Large file uploads using that method could be initializing bootstrap hundreds of times.

After Installing Yii Users and Rights to Newly Created Yii app we have to assign dynamic roles to a user at the time of user creation .

require_once 'Mail.php'; // PEAR Mail require_once 'Mail/mime.php'; // PEAR Mail_mime require_once 'Mail/Queue.php'; // PEAR Mail_queue require_once 'Mail/Queue/Container/mdb2.php'; // PEAR Mail_queue mdb2

Hi Folks,

Step1: Download the extension from path 'http://code.google.com/p/yii-mail/downloads/list' .

Lets say we have such a CGridView widget showing a list of users for administrator. Users have status „active“ or „disabled“. Grid widget puts class „odd“ or „even“ to rows and we want to preserve this. So we want to add a class „disabled“ to rows with disabled users.

Implementation

<?php
$this->widget('zii.widgets.grid.CGridView', array(
	'id'=>'user-grid',
	'dat...

Let's see what exactly are the events in Yii!

Add these lines in /config/main.php

'components'=>array(
.........
		'db'=>array(
			'connectionString' => 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=database1',
			'emulatePrepare' => true,
			'username' => 'root',
			'password' => 'itsasecret',
			'charset' => 'utf8',
		),
		'db2'=>array(
		    'class' => 'CDbConnection',
			'connectionString' => 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=databa...

The sql 'set time_zone' ensures that all dates retrieved are in UTC time. If your MySql server has the time zone names installed then use 'UTC' instead of '+00:00'.

Components

Copy the code at the end of this wiki for LocalTime.php and DefaultDateTimeParser.php int...

We will use Symfony 2 components for writing tests for Yii project, it's gonna be fun :).

create a class file under protected\components named RActiveRecord.php

The basic idea is to render a grid and, for each row, render a set of radio buttons that asynchronously update their respective model.

Countries sometimes change their laws pertaining to time zones and daylight saving times. This means that GMT+2 can be a different local time this August compared to last August! It could even be a different date!

During development, it's often very handy to have SQL logging and profiling.

When we use multiple radio buttons with same name in Yii many people have the problem on getting the value of the selected radiobutton. The radioButtonList can be used for that, but if we need to use radioButton itself to place the button any where in a view, we need to include one more parameter in htmloption array().
