I was able to set up the infinite scroll of select2 in Yii. I am glad to share it with you. The demo and source code can be found here. However, select2 for Yii can be found here which uses a widget.

To replace the application component 'format', which is registered by CApplication by default, you can put this in your application 'components' config:

We can use a CJuiDatePicker for a CGridView inline filter.

After creating an yii app . we need to implement permission, Authentication and Authorization .so the best way is to use the Yii users and Rights modules.

>Info: As KCFinder's documentation mentions, if your application (Yii in our case) session handling is using the PHP environment configuration - meaning no change in session handling at all, then no change is needed also on KCFinder side to be able to use this session and thus have this simple interface between your Yii webapp and KCFinder. If t...

I found a better solution.

Please note that this article is a simple example and good security should be taken into account when we play with authentication systems.

Starting with the blog tutorial, Yii developers are familiar with the notion of access rules defined in the controller, where the actions are allowed or denied depending on the user's name or role.

class CommentController extends CController {
    public function filters()
    {
        return array( 'accessControl' ); // perform access control for CRUD operations
    }

There are situations in which Active Record will generate nonsense queries from what a nieve Yii user might think is reasonable code. One such situation is a CActiveDataProvider using CDbCriteria to get data from parent and 1:n child table with a condition on the child table.

In addition to the opcode cache, APC can also serve as a user cache for Yii via [CApcCache]. It should be noted that this will make APC's memory needs less predictable.

There are a couple of ways to achieve this, but the first is preferred.

Yii does not have an LDAP class itself, but its very easy to implement LDAP in the stock UserIdentity class.

Let's say our table 'mug' has a column named 'color' of the type ENUM('red','green','blue').
We want to replace the textfield for the attribute color in the create and update forms of a 'mug' with a drop down list, which has the enum values as options.
The main code was contributed by zaccaria in the forum (see [this post](...

We all love the convenient gadget, namely jQuery UI Datepicker as an input element for date. Yii supports it as CJuiDatePicker. Let's see how to use it.

1. Create an Active Record Behavior that builds the criteria for the search() method and attach it to your model
2. Modify the search() method of the model to merge the behavior's criteria in with the rest of the searchable attributes
3. Modify the _search form view to add the date range inputs

But in the supposedly small share of webapps that don't ask users to activate their accounts, you can end up with a number of bounce messages and non-accessible active accounts.

Let's say you have an internal messaging system in your webapp, and you want to display messages dynamically and real-time to the relevant recipients.

This example includes a composite condition as well as an empty condition - as if you bypass or disable defaultScope without using resetScope().

MrFisk is a sleek little bot hanging out in the official #yii IRC channel on freenode, meant to serve Yii users with documentation lookups and other things. This document intends to provide a summary of what MrFisk can do for you and how to use his fin^H^Heatures.

This is a reference to be used for Model rule validation and is compiled from the Yii documentation and code. The purpose is to have all the information gathered in one place instead of scattered. This reference is not an intro. See The Definitive Guide to Yii, Declaring Validation Rules for a tutorial.
