Wiki articles

First of all this is a very common problem, for more details see this post http://www.yiiframework.com/forum/index.php/topic/52052-upload-file-with-any-charset/

In this wiki I will show how to copy a schema from a database to another one

Hi,

According to below wiki we could migrate database schema to another database

Awhile ago I was trying to find a database driven CMenu system to add to my web applications. This always seemed to me that it would be a lot easier to manage if it where in a database. So the following is the results of that effort:

Suppose you have Products,Categories and each product belongs in many categories

Knowledge is necessary to determine the address of the controller in a single layer system. This allows you to quickly search and painlessly produce refactoring controllers and their addresses.

1. http://example.com/terms-and-conditions (english)
2. http://example.com/impressum (german)
3. http://example.com/mentions-legales (french)

This article is for those who have dealt with the complexity of Elasticsearch or any other indexing machines and are looking for an easier way to index the existing database without additional effort.

Please consider the following Dear software engineers imagine I have a simple ISA hierarchy: parent A with children B and C. So let's say we have the corresponding tables named "a", "b", "c" and (created with the help of the gii model creator) the classes A, B, C The following is a screenshot from MySQL workbench: ![MySQL workbench screenshot](http://s4.postimage.org/4tuwkm43d/Screenshot.pn...

In this wiki I will show how to Disallowing login for Inactive users. Only Active users can logging and access their account. You can set privacy for your yii web apps users.

If you have two datepicker in one form and you want that a date of from date shold be minimum date of todate then put following code in Cjuidatepicker widget options array:

'onSelect'=>'js:function(selected) {
$("#HostelRoomStatusMaster_room_status_master_end_date").datepicker("option","minDate",selected);
				}',

CMenu comes with a lot of great customization options built in. One of the most used is the class 'active' being added to menu item. But, what if you want to add your own class or id to a menu item ?

Yii has a neat "trick" that will assign default values to new CActiveRecords. When performing a search() though, this is pretty annoying as they automatically apply as filter values.

Efficient coding with Yii implies efficient use of the code generator. This article shares the personalised Gii templates that were built starting from the standard templates proposed by AweGen.

This article shows one of possible ways to implement menu items (as well as links), which displays a progress / wait dialog and are redirecting browser to destination URL in the same time. This is especially useful, for links or routes that are know to be loaded for a prolonged period of time (i.e. getting a lot of data from database).

In order to get your Yii logs into Heroku's logs, you have to work a little bit of magic. You'll need to modify the boot.sh script and add the following two lines: ~~~ touch /app/apache/logs/app_log tail -F /app/apache/logs/app_log & ~~~ This will set up the log and tail it so that when you request "heroku logs", this log is included.

Sometimes the App needs a nicer look & feel, so its necessary to organize the assets for this and Yii can help a lot to make it easy. In this article I provide tips for handling multiple "Designs". I use these three features:

Register an event handler at Object-Level

It is difficult to perform user dependent theming through a general configuration in 'main.php'. This article proposes a method to do so through a Factory that dynamically generates classes to allow delayed resolution of actual user values. This means that you can refer to values that are stored in the database through the CActiveRecord before Yii is actually loaded. The values will be fetched...
