[2.3] Extras Compatibility

[exside]

I think it would be good to collect working and more important not-yet-working extras in one place (maybe for the release note?) as more and more are reported.

As far as I can tell, most not-working extras are affected by the connector nuking that happened in 2.3, so they don't find the appropriate processors anymore and thus do not work anymore. Another quite commonly observed issue is the use of the depreciated $modx->getMicrotime() method in extras. Just replacing it with PHP's native function microtime(true) fixes this problem.

I suggest commenting (including version info) about successfully and not successfully tested extras in this issue and a I will update the following list.

[pixelchutes]

Great idea!

I've updated the post with a few I know to be working as expected. I'm pretty sure getResources and Wayfinder are also covered, but would love other feedback (especially more advanced use cases) since they are pretty critical add-ons for most.

[goldsky]

GridClassKey has been fixed

[exside]

thanks guys, @pixelchutes: perfect, even better if you can do it directly =)! what about the two now checked extras in the "needs confirmation" section, do they fully work and should be moved up?

[sottwell]

As far as I can tell, cssSweet, ModxTalks and pdoTools work

[sottwell]

siblingNav works fine - doesn't show in the Installer though.

[exside]

thanks @sottwell! list updated...

[sottwell]

ClientConfig works

[sottwell]

Batcher looks good - at least I didn't see anything not working

[exside]

thanks =)! Updated

[sottwell]

CodeMirror works

[sottwell]

AdvSearch looks good so far

[sottwell]

SiblingNav now visible in the Installer.

[exside]

Thanks @sottwell, updated the list and added a section of working packages not showing up in the package manager.

[sottwell]

To repeat, SiblingNav 1.0.2 pl is now visible in the Installer.

[exside]

Ah, sorry, didn't read well =) (took "now" for "not"^^)

[christianseel]

SeoPro by sterc has bugs: https://github.com/Sterc/SEOPro/issues/32

[exside]

@christanseel, thanks for reporting, cannot find it in the 2.3 package manager though, you can? Would you say partially working or not working?

[sottwell]

On further examination, it looks like CodeMirror doesn't completely work. Setting it to use for resources causes a white-screen when opening a resource.

Hm. Another try and it's working fine. Must have been a gremlin.

[pixelchutes]

@sottwell anything in the error log?

I've noticed a lot of plugins throwing harmless errors in 2.3, basically any output...easily resolved via a simple return; Not sure if by design? (see Ace issue link above for example)

[christianseel]

@exside I think they disabled it temporarily. Its kind of partially working but main features have bugs. But it doesn't break the manager.

[sottwell]

No, no errors. And now when I install it and try it again it seems fine.

[exside]

added seoPro to the list of partially working extras

[theboxer]

Profiler & Tagger are working

[exside]

Thanks @TheBoxer, list updated!

[the-dunnock]

xBug does not function on 2.3. Building compatible version, just need to keep it backwards compatible also.

[the-dunnock]

xBug 0.7.5 is 2.3 compatible now

[exside]

thanks @the-dunnock, updated!

[sepiariver]

getPage 1.2.4-pl and getResources 1.6.1-pl work

[sepiariver]

Breadcrumbs 1.1.0-pl SimpleSearch 1.9.0-pl Wayfinder 2.3.3-pl all work So does getCache 1.1.0-pl but it's not on the list here.

[rthrash]

Thanks @sepiariver … list updated (and getCache added).

[sepiariver]

TinyMCE has same issue as CKEditor re: invoking MODX File Browser: http://sepiariver.co/1mAq6pc

[sepiariver]

Actually it's not the same issue, but commit: https://github.com/modxcms/revolution/commit/91c82a713007e5076ccf710bcef883d94c358f3f does make TinyMCE work..there's just a couple of paths that need updating but it's at least partially working.

[sepiariver]

getRelated by Mark Hamstra isn't on the list but it works

[christianseel]

The UI of seoTab is broken / not useable. (Removing the custom css helps) https://github.com/Sterc/SEOTab/issues/31

[Mark-H]

I'm seeing some extras in the list that are mentioned as either broken (Janitor) or partially working with the note of it using action IDs. For the record, while the UI for it is gone, actions still exist for backwards compatibility reasons. So extras shouldn't break just because they install a modAction record. Just a FYI.

[alroniks]

Base functions in SE Manager for MODX 0.2.0-pl work. @lautsevich Your opinion?

[beau-gosse]

BigBrother 1.1.0-rc2 works Redirector 2.0.5-pl works GridClassKey1.0.1-beta1 @goldsky works well, but it's printing the following error in the log: (ERROR @ /v3/index.php) [OnWebPagePrerender]1 (ERROR @ /v3/index.php) [OnLoadWebDocument]1 (ERROR @ /v3/manager/index.php) [OnTVInputRenderList]1 (ERROR @ /v3/manager/index.php) [OnManagerPageBeforeRender]1 (ERROR @ /v3/manager/index.php) [OnRichTextEditorRegister]1 (ERROR @ /v3/manager/index.php) [OnDocFormPrerender]1 ... etc.

[jaygilmore]

It was reported that all the Extras by Sterc should be ready for 2.3. They'll update here when they are.

[pyrographics]

We're running MandrillX on a 2.3 dev site. It works fine with the exception of an unrelated CURL issue with MODXcloud. Addition: mChimpX also works fine.

[qodo]

TwitterX should be working on 2.3 and tested on two sites for me!

[funkyduke]

I think Articles is an important one since it's being used many times. Can anybody confirm that this is working? There was also said that Articles and VersionX would be standard in Modx in the future. Anyone knows something about that?

[pyrographics]

Articles has an error in 2.3: Code: 404 Not Found {"success":false,"message":"Processor not found: getlist","total":0,"data":[],"object":[]}

[absent42]

modMailchimp 1.0.6-pl ObfuscateEmail-Revo 1.0.0-pl TwitterX 1.3.5-pl (after an update from 1.3.4) ajaxform-1.0.2-pl geturlparam-1.0-beta1 multiuploaddialog-1.0.2-pl

are working fine.

[exside]

thanks guys, list updated!

@absent42 Why would you install MultiUploadDialog on 2.3, it's in the core there =)...but added to the list anyways!

[absent42]

@exside It was already on a site I upgraded.

[exside]

@absent42 aah, that makes sense =) (upgrade did work well in general? never did it till now...), would be interesting what modx is actually using when that Extra is installed, the extra code or the core one?

[lautsevich]

@Alroniks We have not tested it. I will do in the near future.

[Mayanktaker]

Articles is still not updated and its 12th of july. Why they are not updating? I was hoping this to be updated before the final 2.3 build. Articles has serious issues in 2.3. One of them is this : Code: 404 Not Found {"success":false,"message":"Processor not found: getlist","total":0,"data":[],"object":[]}

[gadgetto]

@Mayanktaker in issue #831 you can see how I solved the same problem as Articles is having, in GoodNews add-on.

[Mark-H]

Articles has been fixed per version 1.7.7.
