Comment on Zend Framework: Using separate layouts per module by Chris Morrell

Nice! I didn’t know Zend_Layout gave you that option (I don’t see it anywhere in the docs). Good to know.

Comment on Zend Framework: Using separate layouts per module by Vlao

There is an easier and cleaner way:

protected function _initLayout() {
Zend_Layout::startMvc();
}

The app is now looking in the view folder of the current module for layout.phtml
If you insist on keeping your layouts in application/layouts and naming them {module}.phtml, your approach is the right one. I prefer my modules completely separate(except for models). It all depends on the application you are building.

Don’t take this as critisism – just another perspective

You need to run the file on a web server that have PHP 5 installed on it. You could try NearlyFreeSpeech.NET as a cheap hosting option. Then just open the PHP file in something like Notepad and follow the instructions inside.

I did send my response to them. So far I haven’t heard anything back. I’ll keep this post updated if I do…

Hi Chris,
Did you actually send this off to them and did they respond to you at all? I am on the same page as you but I’m curious how these organizations see it. I mean they are not only protecting the original copyright holder but also themselves so that they can keep their service online for others to use.

Doctrine 2 seems to be the best ORM option out there, and I’ll definitely take a closer look at it when it’s released. It’s also worth mentioning that Doctrine is likely to become the “preferred” ORM for use with Zend Framework, and they’ll probably work on ensuring that they work together well. Probably when ZF 2.0 and Doctrine 2.0 are out they will be a killer combination.

My system is much simpler than Doctrine, and might make more sense when you don’t need a full-blown ORM.

This seems to silently fail for me. I’m using a fluid app instance and installed the script via the browse userscripts.org menu item. After installation there’s no dock icon badge, menu item list or growl notifications. Do you have any hints on debugging what might be wrong?

Thanks!

Check out the Doctrine 2.0 it is domain driven and really flexible. It provides as well lazy loading without involving domain objects themselves (as you both do – wrong) by Proxy classes.
There is a couple of ‘BUT’ though – it’s in alpha yet (but actively developed) and it’s for php 5.3 only.

Sweet, that solution will work for now (work perfectly btw). Ideally an empty title would be the best, but as I said, it puts some random jibberish with an empty FLICKR_TITLE. I bet Tweetie doesn’t send somekind of trackback url to the tweet? That would be another solution.

There’s no way to use the image title itself because Tweetie doesn’t send that information with the image. I think that you could just set FLICKR_TITLE to and empty string and that would work.

Alternately, Tweetie 2.1.0 and later sends the tweet along with the image data, so you could potentially use a truncated version of that. I haven’t tried this, but something along the lines of:

define('FLICKR_TITLE', substr($_POST['message'], 0, 20)); // 20 is the length you want to truncate to

Give either of those a shot and let me know if you need more help.

Thanks for this!

Wondering, would it be possible to make it so the pictures gets uploaded with no title at all? If I remove the default title it will just generate some random letters. I’d prefer if it removed the title altogether in that case. Or maybe same title as the picture? iphone pic 1, 2,3 etc.
