Hi.   My sys admin guy has informed me that installing composer is unlikely. They're a bit jumpy about security around here.   I tried to download and run Laravel on it's own but I'm getting errors when I go to http://example.com/t...laravel/public/

Warning: require(/var/www/html/test/laravel/bootstrap/../vendor/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/html/test/laravel/bootstrap/autoload.php on line 17

Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required '/var/www/html/test/laravel/bootstrap/../vendor/autoload.php' (include_path='.:/php/includes:/var/www/html/php/includes:/jpa/release/jpa/includes:/usr/share/pear:/usr/share/php/phpmailer:/apache/htdocs/applications/surveys/Includes:/var/lib/ZF1/library') in /var/www/html/test/laravel/bootstrap/autoload.php on line 17

I'm very new to Laravel and I am basically assuming that the reason for these errors is because i haven't installed all the various dependancies. And that you can only install all the dependancies through Composer. Is this the case?   I downloaded the Laravel framework from GitHub   Unfortunately.. My only real experience of PHP Frameworks is CodeIgniter. So I've never expoled/used "packages" or "dependancies" and don't really know where they are, or where they go, or what they do!   I managed to get Laravel up and running on my personal computer (using Composer).... But, as I've said, I might not be able to do this on my day job server. Any tips?   ----- Update -----   Is there a chance I am just misunderstanding the word "Dependancies"? It's not a word I often use. Does it just mean "The PHP files that make up the Laravel Framework"?

love to hear from you

I like to set up websites for people who don't have the know how to do it themselves, I mainly set them up wordpress sites cuz thats pretty easy for them to modify and maintain themselves. To save myself time, I decided to learn how to do it with Composer (what a brilliant tool that it). Can anyone who uses composer for this kinda thing, can you post your composer.json files here. Also, if anyone can show me a better way of doing things, it'd be much appreciated. Heres the one I made:

{
    "name": "acme/brilliant-wordpress-site",
    "description": "My brilliant WordPress site",
    "repositories":[
        {
            "type":"composer",
            "url":"http://wpackagist.org"
        }
    ],
    "require": {
        "johnpbloch/wordpress": ">=3.8.0",
        "wpackagist-plugin/captcha":">=3.9",
        "wpackagist-plugin/tinymce-advanced":">=4.0.0",
        "wpackagist-plugin/wordpress-importer":"*",
        "wpackagist-theme/hueman":"*",
        "wpackagist-theme/eclipse":"*",
        "wpackagist-theme/raindrops":"*"
    },
    "extra": {
	"installer-paths": {
		"mysite": ["johnpbloch/wordpress"],
		"mysite/wp-content/plugins/{$name}": ["type:wordpress-plugin"],
		"mysite/wp-content/themes/{$name}": ["type:wordpress-theme"]
        }
    },
    "autoload": {
        "psr-0": {
            "Acme": "src/"
        }
    }
}

I think I'm doing this in a silly way though. I read about these composer installer things on github, but I didn't figure out how to use them so instead I used the installer-paths key to make the autoloader put the files in the right place. Heres a composer.json file I found which is better cuz it uses a post installation script:

{
    "require": {
        "wordpress/core": "3.5.2",
        "wordpress/twentytwelve": "1.1",
        "wordpress/akismet": "2.5.7",
        "wordpress/google-sitemap-generator": "3.2.9",
        "wordpress/google-analytics-for-wordpress": "4.3.3",
        "wordpress/wordpress-importer": "0.6.1"
    },
    "repositories": [
        {
            "type": "composer",
            "url": "https://raw.github.com/wordpressoncomposer/composer-repository/master/"
        },
        {
            "type": "vcs",
            "url": "https://github.com/wordpressoncomposer/installer"
        }
    ],
    "scripts": {
        "post-install-cmd": "Wordpress\\Composer\\InstallerTasks::wpConfig"
    },
    "extra": {
        "wordpress_coredir": "wordpress/core",
        "wordpress_wp_contentdir": "wordpress/wp-content",
        "wordpress_wp_config": {
            "site_url": "http://localhost",
            "db_host": "localhost",
            "db_user": "root",
            "db_pass": "",
            "db_name": "wordpress"
        }
    },
    "minimum-stability": "dev"
}

I'm gonna start using these scripts once I figure out how to use them. Where are the scripts stored? I haven't a clue what this autoload thing is all about either, is it a tool for moving files into the appropriate directories? See how the first file gets wordpress from packagist, and the second one gets it from github. Is there a difference? If I was to add that post-install-cmd key to the first composer.json file, would it still work? In other words, do both repositories contain identical packages.

I use the Wholesale Suite Premium Prices plugin with WooCommerce. I have 6 specific wholesale roles out of 15 that I wish to hide two specific shipping methods from being selected for the 6 exceptions. I'm just trying this on my staging server at this time using a code snippet example that I found and modified for my specific conditions. Would the following work for this purpose?

/* Hide specific shipping methods for specific wholesale roles */
add_filter( 'woocommerce_package_rates', function( $shipping_rates ) {
// User role and shipping method ID to hide for the user role
    $role_shipping_method_arr = array(
    'ws_silvia_silver' => array( 'Silvia Premium Standard Shipping (Tracking Service)'),
    'ws_silvia_silver_pst_exempt' => array( 'Silvia Premium Standard Shipping (Tracking Service)'),
    'ws_silvia_silver_tax_exempt' => array( 'Silvia Premium Standard Shipping (Tracking Service)'),
    'ws_silvia_silver' => array( 'Silvia Union Standard Shipping (Tracking Service)'),
    'ws_silvia_silver_pst_exempt' => array( 'Silvia Union Standard Shipping (Tracking Service)'),
    'ws_silvia_silver_tax_exempt' => array( 'Silvia Union Standard Shipping (Tracking Service)'),
    'ws_silvia_gold' =>    array( 'Silvia Premium Standard Shipping (Tracking Service)'),
    'ws_silvia_gold_pst_exempt' => array( 'Silvia Premium Standard Shipping (Tracking Service)'),
    'ws_silvia_gold_tax_exempt' => array( 'Silvia Premium Standard Shipping (Tracking Service)'),
    'ws_silvia_gold' =>    array( 'Silvia Union Standard Shipping (Tracking Service)'),
    'ws_silvia_gold_pst_exempt' => array( 'Silvia Union Standard Shipping (Tracking Service)'),
    'ws_silvia_gold_tax_exempt' => array( 'Silvia Union Standard Shipping (Tracking Service)'),
    );

    // Getting the current user role
    $curr_user = wp_get_current_user(); 
    $curr_user_data = get_userdata($current_user->ID); 

    // Wholesale Suite Roles 
    if (isset($current_user) && class_exists('WWP_Wholesale_Roles')) {
        $wwp_wholesale_roles = WWP_Wholesale_Roles::getInstance();
        $wwp_wholesale_role = $wwp_wholesale_roles->getUserWholesaleRole(); 

// Loop through the user role and shipping method pair
    foreach( $role_shipping_method_arr as $role => $shipping_methods_to_hide ) {

// Check if defined role exist in current user role or not
    if( in_array( $role, $current_user->roles) ) {

// Loop through all the shipping rates
    foreach( $shipping_rates as $shipping_method_key => $shipping_method ) {
$shipping_id = $shipping_method->get_id();

// Unset the shipping method if found
    if( in_array( $shipping_id, $shipping_methods_to_hide) ) {
unset($shipping_rates[$shipping_method_key]);
}
}
}
}
}
    return $shipping_rates;
});

Any insights as to how to accomplish this would be greatly appreciated. Lyse

Hi all,   is it possible to install php version 5.2.3 on windows server 2012R2 ? will it work ? are they any security issues ?   Best regards, Amit menasahe      

 PHP Version : 5.3.28 is this outdated or what?   i run this on the server - which is configured and administered by a friend of me. i run a wordpress-cms   and i have issues with the image upload. all image uploads in the connections-plugin run in to a blank page       what can i do !?   i need your help and your ideas   love to hear from you   greetings

Hi

I have used in the past

search.php?sl=y

on a link to the page, and in the page I would use

if($_GET[$sl]=='y'){

Show somw stuff here

}

This was good in php 5.6, but I'm in the process of upgrading my code to the newer version, and am looking for an updated way to acheive this.

Help, pointers examples

Thanks in advance.

Can anyone tell me how I can find out which version of sqlsrv that I need to load to work with my IIS server and MSSQL server?

"I'm also running a forked version of php, that has many custom additions and modifications that I added to it, which helps keep everything running as fast as it does"

what does saying u have a "forked" version of php and makes your site run super fast, wats this mean?

What exactly can u edit in your php config to make it faster? I thought only php accelerators do that? lol

This may sound like a really stupid question, but this is really bugging me.   If i code something in PHP 5.5.11 and upload it to a server that is running PHP 5.4, would the code work correctly? I didnt think there was a super amount of difference between the two versions. Perhaps im wrong.   The reason i asked is because someone has given me a project to help them with. Im running php 5.5.11. I coded it, tested in in xampp, working great. I upload it to his website, which he told me is currently running 5.4 (i tried phpinfo() but they have disabled it) and a majority of the functions i coded are no longer working. Things are not writing to the database, things collected from the database either dont show up on the website or they only show up when something gets posted after it, in which case the something posted after it doesnt show e.c.t.   Is the difference that much it can break code?   Thanks!

I have a part of my code that requires php 5.3+ how can I test to see if the user has 5.3 or greater?

At first I thought this would be a good idea, but then I realized that it isn't such as a version: 5.2.10 (not sure if that is an actual version or not).
if((int)preg_replace("/\./", "", phpversion()) >= 530){
// Allow functionality
}

using my code, using 5.2.10 it would allow it, but it shouldn't because it isn't larger than 5.3.

what can I do?

After being forced to have the server upgraded I am having problems with my 'reset password' pages.

What I wondered is, has there been any changes to PHP or MySQL between these versions ?

The PHP version was 5.2.9 and is now 5.2.14
The MySQL version was Client API version 5.0.45 and is now Client API version 5.0.90

Some one clicks a link like this.

www.site.com/resetpw.php?pwr=a1b2c3d4e5f6

the code would be a 32 char hash that is checked against the database, but my code now (which was never changed before or after the server change) seems to find the database line and update it but show the message that it was invalid ?  instead of showing the the message, your password will be sent to you after changing the DB

does anyone have any ideas ?

HI,

I've upgraded from PHP version 5.2 to PHP version 5.4 and are not able to load / find mssql extension ?

How do I use MSSQL in version 5.4 ??

Is MSSQL not supported in this version or am I (hopingly) missing something ???

Regards
Dieter
