texts: Special Characters Become Question Marks "?" in PDF Printing

texts:
-I'm using Civicrm 5.11.0, Joomla 3.8.0, Windows 7
-SQL is encode in utf8
-Chinese characters in phpmysql are readable
-Chinese characters in Civicrm are readable
-Civicrm saves data in utf8, so import or export contacts in Chinese is fine
-CiviMail can send email with Chinese characters
-Win 7 can read Chinese characters and save word documents in pdf as Chinese
-but when I go to Individual>Contribution>Print Invoice as PDF, they all turn to question marks (one character, one question mark)
-put Chinese characters in invoice templates, turns to question marks too

I tried to change this code

   $dompdf->load_html( $html );

to this

   $dompdf->load_html( utf8_decode( $html ) );

(from ../civicrm/CRM/Utils/PDF/Utils.php)
but nothing happened, still question marks.
What could be the cause of this?

I also tried this on demo site, same results display.

texts: Use single profile on checkout from cart

texts:
I'm trying to use the cart checkout to simplify checkouts for parents registering their children in multiple classes over the summer. Many sign up for 8 classes, and when they get to checkout, they have to enter all their information for all 8 classes.
Does anyone have experience altering the checkout to check if the same profile is being used on the multiple events to just use one?

Edit: Alternatively, is there a way to assign a profile to the overall cart checkout, so the profiles used for the individual events could be shortened?

texts: Can we email additional participants information to the person who did the registration?

texts:
We have individuals registering additional participants for events but the additional participants information (which includes custom fields it will be useful for the person doing the registration to have a copy of) is not being emailed to them.

We have considered requiring them to enter an email address for each participant and letting them use their own (by ticking "Same Email Address" in event setup) but the dedupe matching means the details of the subsequent participants entered overwrite the original users registration information.

Is there a way to send the details for the additional participants a person has registered to them in the confirmation email without collecting additional emails for the other participants? If not is there a way to stop the original details being overwritten if the same email address is used for multiple participants so they can receive multiple emails confirming each participants information?


texts:
I am trying to make a very complex event price matrix as simple as possible for the people registering.

Multi-person registration is on - many families attend
There are Adult, child and young child (free) price brackets
There are SIX accommodation options (including no accommodation)
with varying availability. Some are "per bed" but others (powered
tent sites) would be by booking (as one tent could be 1 - 8 people,
hence it's the number of sites which limits, not the participants).
Then there's a member discount (fortunately a constant amount)
and a self-catering discount (will be done by a coupon code).
and of course earlybird, standard and late pricing bands - which
Civi handles with aplomb.
There's a one-extra night option (which should be in the same
accommodation as for the event).
There's a family discount for 2A+2C

It's easy enough to make a whole bunch of price sets, but the participant limits (e.g. only 50 small room beds available) won't span across adult/child price fields, so availability will have to be carefully monitored by the event team and options disabled manually as they fill up.

The biggest simplifiction I'd like to achieve is that a group of people registering together want the same accommodation option (if they don't, they can register separately!), so I'd like them to only have to choose the accommodation option once, not for each person and not for the extra night option.

Can anyone see a way to approach this?


texts: Why are failed credit card contributions appearing as default payment method?

texts:
I know this could likely be related to this, this one and this other stack - but bringing it up as its a bit different.

When a credit card transaction fails - it is correctly marked as failed in the system - but the Payment Method listed is actually the default payment method and not Credit Card. Is this all the same issue?


texts: How do user permissions work for multi-level organizations?

texts:
We are currently using Action Network for our CRM (even though it is not designed for that), marketing and digital mobilising tools.

We moved to them because of their system of parent/sibling/child groups. In AN, each of our branches can have a child group (siblings of each other). Data flows up to the parent group automatically but down only if we specify.

Could we replicate this in CiviCRM? Could we connect different local/national databases together? Or use segmentation and user permissions to achieve the same effect (i.e. local leaders only accessing local data, national leaders accessing it all etc)

Many thanks, Stuart


texts: Can CiviContribute and CiviGrant work together?

texts:
I'm part of a non-profit that takes in donations from corporations, and runs an internship program twice a year. We usually have around 15-20 different organizations offering internships. Our donors can specify whether they want their funds to go a specific organization participating in this internship round, earmark it for a project in future rounds, or put it in the general fund. Often, part of the donation goes towards into a travel fund which is allocated from later.

It sounds like we want to use CiviGrant to track what part of our budget is allocated to specific project internships, and perhaps use it to track our travel expense requests. We also need to track the invoicing status for our donors, which sounds like we need CiviContribute.

Can the two modules work together? For example, could I record a promised donation from company X that is earmarked for project Y and Z?

We also need to get a sense for how much money we have left in the general fund for improvement projects once we fulfill our grants and receive all our outstanding invoices. Is there an easy way to create a report or something similar combining data from CiviGrant and CiviContribute?

texts: Paypal Payment - Express Checkout page not reachable

texts:
I'm starting testing the Paypal payment cicle.
After setting both paypal forms with the following data:

User [Name my paypal UN]

Site URL https://www.paypal.com/
API URL  https://api-3t.paypal.com/
Recurring Payments URL [empty]
Button URL https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/btn_xpressCheckout.gif

Then I created a New Contribution Page, setting "Paypal" as processor and unchecked the "Use a confirmation page" flag.

So, when i test the payment on the Contribution Page,

I'm redirected in the Paypal page and I proceed entering my Credit Card data
I'm unexpectedly ("Use a confirmation page" flag was unchecked!) returned on a new Civicrm Page. From here i press the [Make a contribution] button
the following URL "http://opigi.net/modimp/civicrm/index.php?q=civicrm/contribute/transact" is called with the content "The page you are looking for is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later."

I called the Paypal call-center, they told me that the firs part of the operation is correctly terminate, but the page civicrm page where the DoExpressCheckoutPayment is not reached.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

15:21: After some other test, done comparing my test site with a production site, I discovered how in the sites\all\modules\civicrm\CRM\Core\Payment\PayPalImpl.php:

in my local test, where the flow ends correctly, the API GetExpressCheckoutDetails is called two times and finally also the API DoExpressCheckoutPayment
in my production site after the first GetExpressCheckoutDetails call, I get the error "The page you are looking for is temporarily unavailable ..."

texts: using api.getoptions to retrieve all options for a field (even disabled)

texts:
According to the documentation (https://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Pseudoconstant+(option+list)+Reference) I should be able to pass a context to an api.getoptions call in order retrieve both enabled and disabled options for a field. However, it doesn't seem to be working. In fact, swapping out different contexts has no apparent effect on what is returned by the api call. Am I missing something?

Sample code:

$opts = civicrm_api3('contribution', 'getoptions', array(
  'field' => "custom_5",
  'context' => 'get'

texts: When upgrading from 4.7.7 to 4.7.8 I get error "Specified key was too long"

texts:
I tried to upgrade my Joomla CiviCRM 4.7.7 to 4.7.8 and got the following error in the database upgrade:

ALTER TABLE `civicrm_contact` CHANGE `image_URL` `image_URL` VARCHAR(512)
CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_unicode_ci NULL DEFAULT NULL
COMMENT 'optional URL for preferred image (photo, logo, etc.) to display for this contact.'
[nativecode=1071 ** Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes]

This old MySQL bug tells part of the story, I think. I run MySQL 5.6.24 so the limit should be higher, but when I try to do the ALTER TABLE directly I get the same error.

The statement seems to lengthen the image_URL column from 255 to 512 VARCHAR in UTF8. Turns out I can not even lengthen it to 256...

Is there some setting on the database that limits the key length 'globally' that I could have inherited from earlier (site has been up and upgraded for 5 years) versions?

Fortunately I did this on a restored backup, as I do with all upgrades before applying them on the live site. But this is a MacOSX and the live site an Ubuntu 15.10 so there might be some differences there too...

UPDATE: Here's a blog post indicating that innodb_large_prefix can be used to fix this. And it might be default from MySQL 5.7.

Question is just how to do that. Can I change my existing MySQL to run with innodb_large_prefix and then do the upgrade? Will a change in the MySQL setting interfere with my existing data or other tables/databases on the same MySQL server?

texts: How to make one CiviCRM work with Wordpress multisite

texts:
My organisation is using CiviCRM on Wordpress. We recently changed the Wordpress installation to be a multi-site network. CiviCRM, the plugin, is now only activiated for the subsite that was the original one. If we were to create new sites that shall also interact with the same CiviCRM database, would we just have to activate the plugin network-wide, or is this precisely what we have to do?

In the end, we want to have forms on each of the different sites and have people enter their details and sign for things, which are then stored in the (same) CiviCRM database.

I know this is a dumb question, but I am just not sure about any of these things and don't want to break anything.

texts: 'Household member' relationship type can't be (re?)activated through the interface?

texts:
Somehow I seem to have deactivated the type of relationship 'Household member' (is a member of what household) through the interface while configuring a fairly new CiviCRM. As a result, I don't seem to be able to associate individuals to households. Nothing has been changed in code, so I must have just clicked on something. On the relationship types page, this relationship (is a member of) is of course still there (it can't be deleted through the interface, afterall), but doesn't allow itself to be actived (though other options like 'child of' or 'spouse of' can be activated and deactivated). I'm the only person who's been configuring the site, so I don't see how it can be a permissions issue (it must be a problem that I created).

Any ideas what I need to do to re-activate this basic relationship type?

Thanks very much!

Really getting frustrated trying to get cron to work.

WP 4.7 / CiviCRM 4.7.14

using via ssh:

/usr/bin/wget 'https://hbb.org.uk/wp-content/plugins/civicrm/civicrm/bin/cron.php?name=JohnB&pass=123&key=456'

Generates the error.

my settings.php has:

if (!defined('CIVICRM_SITE_KEY')) {
  define( 'CIVICRM_SITE_KEY', '456');
}

Where the two keys are identical. There are no special characters, it's a 20 char string, I've re-entered a new string into both settings.php and the wget. Each time generates a new error log file with the msg.

When I enter the url into Chrome I get "Invalid key". Yet they're identical in the wget and settings.php.

Is there some super-sekret settings file somewhere?


texts: Requiring "Assigned" and "Target" contacts when recording Activity

texts:
When creating a new Activity record, I need to require the "With contact" and "Assigned to" fields have a contact selected.

In the activity/form/activity.php file I can add 'required'=>TRUE to the various arrays, but that setting only works for the fields without a selector (e.g. subject, location, duration).

This can certainly be done with javascript in an extra.tpl file (and might be preferable, as it can be conditional to the activity type), but is there a way to modify either the template or php files to require a selected contact?


texts: How do I force a reload after a CiviCRM summary action?

texts:
In our CiviCRM instance, the value of a some contact custom field can be retrieved by calling an external API.

So I implemented hook_civicrm_summaryActions. If the user clicks on a custom action I added, a popup form appears with the generated result (or error messages). The external API is called, and the result is saved in our custom field.

If the user then clicks 'OK', the form disappears, so the contact summary is shown again, but the value in the custom field is not updated until the user reloads the page in his browser.

Is anyone aware of a way to make the 'calling' page refresh after the user clicks 'ok'? Another option would be to replace the popup form by an ordinary full screen form (anybody knows how to do that for a summary action?), and redirect after the form has been submitted. Or maybe there are better ways to achieve my goal than with summary actions.

Any suggestion is much appreciated.

Thx,
Johan

texts: I am on civi v5.25 with Wordpress v5.5.3. After adding manual off-line contributions (no credit card) each with a different financial type to a contact, none of the amounts display on the contact's contributions. I also recorded additional payments on a couple of the contributions, and still no amounts display. The contribution detail report does not show the amounts, only the number of contributions, and oddly it also shows the number of contributions beside the amount, as in: Amount $ (3). Similar result on the contribution summary report. I've reviewed the financial account and type config and cannot see anything obviously wrong. I am new to civi so this could be something simple. Thanks.

texts: Why do field labels in Event Registration forms not display correctly

texts:
I am using Civievent in version 4.6.10 with Wordpress 4.3.1. Have set up a training event and using a registration form. When I display the form in Test mode it works fine, but when in Live mode the field labels do not display - I just get the * for the required fields and the box to enter the data. Even stranger, when I look at the HTML code that is generated, it looks identical for this section - the label text is in the code for every field! If I try and submit the form without entering any data, I get the error messages as expected for the compulsory fields, but the field labels are then displayed, just for the compulsory fields! Any ideas anyone?

I have used both a preset profile and a customised profile to generate the form, with the same result.

There doesn't seem to be a way to simply mark an address as bad or inactive like the On Hold field for emails. One idea I had would be to just use a new Address Location Type but I'm wondering if there are other approaches.

We are using CiviCRM 4.6 with Drupal 7.  We have CiviVisualize 1.42 installed and think it's pretty great.  We just found a wrinkle though and wondered if the issue is with the extension or our (lack of) setup.

We have a few Drupal roles that do not have access to CiviContribute.  Yet when those users navigate to the CiviVisualize section (oursite.org/civicrm/dataviz) they are able to see the CiviContribute section at /civicrm/dataviz/contribute and the Donor Trends (with specific donor names!) at /civicrm/dataviz/donortrends.

I don't see any CiviVisualize permissions in our Drupal permission list and I can't think of how Civi permissions (ACLs) would/could impact the extension's permissions.  I also don't see a CiviVisualize setup page within Civi that might have settings for permissions.

Any ideas?  Does CiviVisualize follow permissions from the CMS and I'm just not seeing how to set it up, or would we need to do something different to get CiviVisualize to respect our permissions?  Thanks for the help!

texts: drush requires civicrm to be enabled when installing in saltstack

texts:
I am trying to use saltstack to provision a centos 6.7 system that has drupal and civicrm. I have civicrm as a tar ball that I extract into sites/all/modules before trying to install. I am able to do all the provisioning without problem until I need to install civicrm with drush by running:

drush civicrm-install

This command works perfectly fine when I ssh into the target machine and execute it directly in the shell, but when the command is executed through saltstack I get this error message:

Command civicrm-install needs the following module(s) enabled to run: civicrm.
The drush command 'civicrm-install' could not be executed.

I have already tried clearing the drush cache using drush cc, I have tried putting the command in a bash script and running the bash script from salt, and I have already placed civicrm.drush.inc in ~/.drush with no luck. Can somebody tell me what drush is missing from the environment in order to execute correctly?

[edit] More detail on what I have already tried for clarity.

texts: Multi-level Organization ACL Permissions

texts:
For my first CiviCRM implementation I need to set it up for an organization that has several national branches, each with a number of centres.
Contacts belong to a centre and therefore its country.

Role permissions are needed at different levels:
- local managers should be able to view/edit only contacts within their own centre;
- national managers should be able to view/edit only contacts within the same country;
- international managers can access all contacts.

This page of the CiviCRM's wiki is a promising start to give ideas, but it never got completed.

I've made a few attempts using Option Groups, Custom Fields mapped to Smart Groups, but I did not really go anywhere also because the idea of managing about 170 centres in 22 countries that way seems a bit cumbersome.

Can anyone give me ideas on the best approach to handle this ?

I have been trying to find a way on how to divide one fundraising event into three parts - because our event was supporting three different initiatives and we want to know which contact supported which initiative within the event, and how much money they donated for every initiative.

It is also important for us to create a link that includes all the three initiatives because the fundraising is to be continued online - any suggestions on how to do that? The link will then be sent out through a mailing.

Thanks in advance!


texts: CiviEvent registration prevented with “missing fields” error for CiviDiscount free registrations for event

texts:
We are running CiviCRM 4.6.8 on Drupal 6.37.

We are a theatre company and we use CiviEvent to sell tickets/register attendees for events. We've have set up a membership group for alumni actors and used CiviDiscount to set up the option for alumni actors to register for a pair of comp tickets to any performance:

But, because the registration costs $0, no billing fields appear (nor does the Civi Copy Address"Billing Address same as" checkbox), and the registrant receives an error message and is unable to complete registration:

Especially since seating is limited, we need to still be able to track attendees, even if they are comped in. This seemed like the best way to allow a particular group of people access a specific discount--non-members wouldn't receive the discount, obviously, and we'd still be able to track who attends which performances and when seats are no longer available.

This also happens if "Pay later" is selected, which I've seen listed as other questions, and appears to be fixed for version 4.6.9, which has not yet been released. Is there a solution in the meantime?


texts: Storing Personally Identifiable Information

texts:
Is anyone storing Personally Identifiable Information (PII), such as Social Security Numbers (SSN), in their database?  How would I encrypt such a field in the database?  I'm expecting that it would be a custom field that is part of a Custom Data Set attached to a contact.  However, I've not seen a way to simply encrypt the stored data in the database.

Encrypting the whole database wouldn't be a bad idea, and any ideas about that would be great too, but it seems like these types of fields need their own key sets in addition to anything else.

Yes, I'm aware of CiviHR, but having a completely separate install and database means a lot more complexity than seems feasible.


texts: Problem with CiviMail Menu on Joomla 3.4.1 - CiviCRM 4.6.2

texts:
I upgraded to CiviCRM 4.6.2 on Joomla 3.4.1 last week.  Everything seemed to work fine, however, when I tried to send out a New Email today, the CiviMail page did not display, the CiviCRM menu did not properly display nor can it be used to navigate.

I tried to see if the same problem occurs on the Joomla Demo, but CiviCRM is only on Version 4.6.0 there.

The following images reflect what I'm seeing:

All other menu items under mailings display and work properly:

Just one example.

However, the new A/B test results in the same type of screen as in image 1:

I've cleaned out the Templates_C directly, along with the site & browser caches, to no avail.

I've got to get this mailing out to our members within the next few days.  Any assistance would be appreciated.

texts: Trying to understand CiviAccounts workflow

texts:
I've read the CiviAccounts Data Flow document and I'm trying to figure out the order things get done.

Here's my situation: My organization collects membership dues at a national level.  But part of those dues are actually local chapter dues.  But not for all chapters.  So I have a table of chapters with their share of the membership dues.  That part works.  But I need to break down the accounting records to reflect both dues, even though the membership form collects only one amount.

For example, if we collect $50 for a person who is from Gotham City, the Gotham City chapter would get $10 of the $50.  I can change the line item record, generate a new line item for the chapter dues and the Financial Item record which references the new line item record.  What I can't figure out is how to set up the Entity Financial Transaction Table to see these new records.  I'm not sure if I can get the financial transaction id yet.  I do all these functions at the civicrm_pre stage for the Line Item record checking for member dues financial type.

So when is the financial Transaction record created for the contribution?  And is it available at the time I'm looking, or do I have to move the breakdown to another timeframe within the complete transaction.


texts: BCC emails not working - is there a log I can view?

texts:
We're using Civi 4.7.12 on Joomla 3.6.2.
Our Society has subgroups which need to be alerted when a contribution comes in for them. We have set the group contact's email address in the bcc field of the relevant contribution page. The contribution is accepted and the donor gets an emailed receipt but the bcc isn't being received. We have tried using an inhouse address as the bcc recipient and that doesn't work either.

Our SMTP mailer does not require authentication.

Is there a log in Civi of mail being sent? Any help would be very welcome.

texts: Relationships Search other than via Advanced Search?

texts:
Is there an option to find the related contacts (e.g. employee of) of an organization other than with the advanced search?

We seem to have an error/bug in our advanced search. It shows the correct results on the initial search, but when creating and saving the smart group, the settings for the advanced search seem to reset.

The search builder doesn’t allow to search for relationships. The relationship report doesn’t allow to save the results in a smart group.

Is there any other option I can’t think of right now?

What are trying to do is to get all related contacts (employee of) of our organization members in one smart group.

texts:
I host a donation-based event, and allow people to register online using a PayPal Payment Processor.

I want to have different options for donations, but also none at all (zero amount).

I tried to use Regular Fees with one of them set to zero, I tried Price Sets, I tried CiviDiscount. But all have the same problem - once the amount to pay is zero, the 'Pay' button of PayPal disappears, and instead there is no button to register free from charge.

I also tried to name the 'Pay Later' label as '€0', but then the user still has to choose one of the normal fees, and then choose the '€0' payment processor rather than the PayPal one, which is very confusing.

How can I do that choosing the zero fee will simply allow to continue and register without paying anything?

Is it possible to have a country with more than one world region?  I like the functionality of the world region search but I would like for some regions to be smaller (North America vs. South America) but also have them grouped together as in the current world region (America South, Central, North and Caribbean).

One way of getting around this situation is to create a group of contacts in each county and then creating a regional group that includes all of the appropriate country groups.  I'm hoping that there is a different way to accomplish this same task.  Thanks.

Maybe this is a dumb question, but I'm quite new to CiviCRM.

Is it possible to use CiviCRM tokens in external services?

Let's say for example that I would like to use another mailing service instead of CiviMail to send an email to some of my contacts.

In the email, I would like to insert a link with which the recipients could update their profile, using:

http://www.myorganization.org/mybasepage?page=CiviCRM&q=civicrm/profile/edit&reset=1&gid=2&id={contact.contact_id}&{contact.checksum}

Is there any chance that {contact.contact_id} and {contact.checksum} are going to work?

I have created specific custom fields for Participants. These are viewable in Preview mode under Custom Data.
When these fields are used in a Profile they are not displayed in Preview mode.
I notice that the Profile I have created does not have anything shown in the "Type" column - whereas all the other profiles do have an entry - such as "individual, Contact". I cannot see where this "Type" entry is derived from when creating the profile. If its the Field Type (from the Custom Field) - then its not linking to Participants nor Events.


texts: How do I debug "Could not find valid value for ct" error message

texts:
Performed upgrade of Civi 4.4 to 4.6 alongside upgrade of Drupal from version 6 to version 7. The Drupal upgrade went fine, as did the CiviCRM upgrades (i.e. no errors were reported).

All dashboards and search functions in CiviCRM work fine, but as soon as I try and create anything (e.g. registering for an event, creating a new Individual, etc...) we get the error: "Could not find valid value for ct".

Searching forums showed this is an old error related to sessions, so checked over all the PHP.ini and Nginx settings to ensure cookies and other domain related settings were correct.

Can anyone point me in the right direction of where else to look?

texts: How to show CiviCase activities in client Actions dropdown?

texts:
I would like to create an extension that pulls in activity types from CiviCase and allows creating those activities against a client record using the "Actions" dropdown on the Client Summary page.

If anyone has done this or similar I would be grateful for any advice.

Thanks

EDIT: The activities need to also be associated with the relevant case types (for reporting and other categorisation needs). Also, they need to be only available for a certain contact type. I'm imagining that attaching them to case types will provide a way of differentiating between them and activities that are available to all contact types.

EDIT2: I now realise this question is a product of my muddled thinking. I'll ask again when I have a clearer idea of what I actually want to achieve!


texts: How do I give event registrants one of four prices but allow admins to select a free option for guests?

texts:
I have an event signup form where I have four different price options. I have made this a mandatory field in order to require that registrants select one price option. However, when I as an admin user sign up a guest or volunteer, I would like there to be another option that does not cost anything.

Is there a way of doing this without also offering this option to the regular attendee? I cannot figure out how.

The workaround that we have is to add an additional field for admins with a negative amount to reduce the payment down to 0. This is not a great solution.


texts: How can I suppress the presentation of discount codes in receipts?

texts:
We use discount codes widely for our events, including the use of what I'd call 'admin-only' codes so that we can apply discounts to registrations that we make on behalf of people like speakers, representatives of event sponsors, etc.

Whilst it is helpful to to clearly show in the receipt/confirmation email that the event fee has been discounted, we don't really want the code itself to be included, as this is an internal code and not for wider use.

Is there a way to suppress the inclusion of the code in the receipt, perhaps still allowing the description text for the code to be included?


texts: Is there a way to prevent CiviCRM profile fieldsets from nesting inside each other?

texts:
I'm working on a site using Drupal 7 with CiviCRM, and I created three CiviCRM profiles and added them to the Drupal user registration/account forms. I was expecting this to add three groups of fields (one with first and last name, one with the address, one with phone numbers) to the form, each with their own title. Which is what it initially appeared to do...

But when I added a bit of styling to the fieldsets — specifically, setting each one off in its own shaded box to make them more visually distinct — to my surprise it turned out that each fieldset was nested inside the previous one! So rather than three boxes in a row, I have a box inside a box inside a box. Needless to say, it doesn't look good.

Why is it structured this way? And is there any way to change it so that the three fieldsets are sequential instead of nested?

BTW, if anyone's curious why I made three profiles instead of just putting all the fields in one, I am trying to have the form visually broken up into small bite-size pieces with friendly titles ("What's your name?", "Where do you live?", etc.) for greater ease of use, which is a priority on this particular site.

Update: I think I've identified that the template that generates this form is /templates/CRM/Profile/Form/Dynamic.tpl, so theoretically it should be possible to make a custom version of it... But having perused the template, I still can't see what in it is making it nest the fieldsets that way! And I have no idea why it would be setup that way in the first place.

texts: For CiviCampaign - how can I enable any user to see Canvass and other Activities entered by another user via a webform?

texts:
We're on Civi 4.6.9, Drupal 7.

I've installed and am using the CiviCampaign component. I like it. I've used the Canvass activity type added by CiviCampaign in a webform, created using the webform-civicrm Drupal module. Here's a screenshot of the webform CiviCRM activity field.

Now, I want to enable any user to see Canvass activities that any other user has entered using the webform.

In Civi, only the Added by: user, the Assigned To: user (if any), the "target" contact and an Admin (me) can see the Activities in the Added by: or Assigned To: user's record.

There are other users who oversee volunteer users entering Canvass activities (the Added by: user), as well as staff and volunteers conducting the canvass (the Assigned to: user) that need to be able to see all the Activities data entered in each contact's Activities list.

I can and have created Groups of the target contacts who have the relevant Canvass activity and any user can see the Contacts in the relevant Group.

I've looked here and elsewhere. I've also tweaked the CiviCampaign permissions. No luck so far.

texts: Is civi automatically adding recurrence to contributions?

texts:
We've had a really high number of recurring contributions this month. I started becoming worried because some of the amounts are quite high. Doing some digging, it appears that everyone who used paypal to register in the past month has a recurring contribution set. I tried to run a test, but the payment wouldn't go through (for some reason civi is deleting the "sandbox" portion of the URL when I click save. Any idea what's happening there?) In any case, the test appears to have recurrence turned on even though I didn't opt for a recurring payment.

Could this be an issue with our payment settings? Or is there a bug in civi? This bug runs a serious risk of breaking our trust with our members.

We changed over to paypal pro at the beginning of the month, so it really seems that this issue is tied to that change. Credit cards entered on the back-end aren't coming up as recurring, but it appears every single transaction entered on the front end includes recurrence. There's no way 100% of users selected this option. As mentioned, my test appears to confirm this, even though I couldn't complete the payment.

We are running Wordpress 4.5.1 and CiviCrm 4.7.6.

texts: CiviCRM REST API query doesn't return all fields of a 'Report'

texts:
I have been trying to retrieve reports based on default report templates through REST API calls. But the fields returned for each report instance is not same as what it is supposed to according to a report instance's description.

Here is an example query in the API explorer,

Query to retrieve Constituent Summary report:

Here is the result of the query:

The default description of the Constituent Summary report is:

  Provides a list of address and telephone information for constituent records in your system.

But as you see the result of the query, all the returned rows have only name, and there is no other option in the API explorer to specify fields to be returned.

Things I did to analyse/rectify my query's result it further:

Made sure that the report instance created in the UI has more than one column selected (that is, not only name but other fields like address, email etc.)
Deleted the default report instance and created by own in the UI based on the default report templates. But still, the API query returns only these specific fields (in image.)

The above behavior is true for all query against report: It returns only specific fields/columns irrespective of the column selected in the UI.

Please let me know how can I retrieve a report with all columns (as specified for a particular report in Reports tab)

texts:
I have a number of custom fields. Quite a lot of them are yes select option answers. However a number of contacts have what I think is a null value in them.

So if I search give me everyone who has a yes in the field answer I get the answer 579 for example. If I search is not null I get a much higher value eg 1179.

Does anyone know where his data comes from and what it is? If I get rid of it will it just come back?

The reason I am asking is that I am building a chart in Views where I want to display multiple custom fields in a bar chart. As I am trying to display multiple values I can't filter the data for each custom field rather I am relying on the fact that there is data in the field at all to act as the filter and to ensure an accurate count.

I hope I have explained myself properly!

Thank you!

texts:
I'm bit of a CiviCRM noob, but I'd like to help out and fit with the current patterns. I keep encountering bits of Symfony in core code and it seems well respected... and pretty cool.

Event Dispatcher magic

and I'm sure there is more.

The cool build kit tools seem based on the console component too.

So the question is:

How much symphony magic, and which bits, are worth understanding?

I would like to create a simple, blank, template that only shows the donation amount and email address, and submit button. Without any Civi styles like the header, the navigation, etc.
And I can't find which template is the right one to edit.

The page I would like to edit is:
domain/en/civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1&id=2

How can I locate the relevant template? Is there already a clean blank contribution template I could use?


texts: How can I best represent French addresses?

texts:
I have a list of postal addresses to import, many of which are French.  In the "State" column, I have the region - but the list of state/provinces for France in CiviCRM is departments, not regions.  I don't have the departments.
How do French CiviCRM users record the region?  Or do they?  Is region or department more important than the other?  It seems like neither are necessary for sending postal mail.


texts: there is an error in your request - civimail opt-out from browser

texts:
I have started receiving opt-out error messages from users who try opting out of bulk mailing. This only happens if user views email following the {mailing.viewUrl} token. The opt-out link works if it is used from an email client. When user uses the {mailing.viewUrl} the opt-out uRL is stripped and the final part looks like this "....civicrm/mailing/optout?reset=1&jid=&qid=&h="

Has anyone experienced this issue or do you know how to resolve? I am attaching a screenshot of the error message. I running Drupal 7.70 and CiviCRM 5.21 - thank you for helping out


texts:
When using a profile to search from the frontend (via the listings mode), using the Contact subtype field causes nothing found, even when there are contacts that should be shown.
In other words:

Fields - individual first & last name, contact - contact subtype
Searching only by first name works as it should, BUT
Choosing a contact subtype causes no contacts found, even when there are contacts matching the search
Filling the last name causes it to be used both as a last name and subtype name, thus nothing is found again

I tried this on the WP demo as well, the above happened. Anyone knows how to fix/avoid this?


texts: How can I record multiple premiums for a contribution?

texts:
We offer multiple options like stickers and shirts. If someone donates at the shirt level, they can choose to also get a sticker. We don't require them to choose a sticker, but it's an option.

It seems there's no way to even enter this manually to say that person A wants a shirt and a sticker, person B wants just a shirt but no sticker…

What should we do to handle this?


texts: Why do occasional donors get message "Email is not valid"

texts:
I have a problem that occurs occasionally but not reproducibly.

There are cases where donors visit the on-line contribution page to make a donation, enter their details and click Next, and get a validation error "Email is not valid". The vast majority of donors have no problem.

This is not reproducible on my test system.

The check is done by HTML_QuickForm_Rule_Email::validate() which checks the address matches a regex and optionally does a DNS lookup. As far as I can tell, the DNS lookup option is never used, so the only check is against the regex.

Any thoughts as to why this might occasionally fail? It doesn't make sense it fails but can't be reproduced.

Production is running PHP 5.5.9 and test is 5.6.11.


texts: Cron job not working after CIVICRM update (Joomla 3.7.0 and CIVICRM

texts:
we used to send emails to members with great succes before.
Now, I've upgraded the site's Joomla and CIVICRM versions, prepared a draft email, but started to receive emails from the system about a bad configuration, her's the message:

Warning:  ini_set(): A session is active. You cannot change the session module's ini settings at this time in /home/XXX/public_html/libraries/joomla/session/handler/joomla.php on line 46  Fatal error:  Call to a member function get() on null in /home/XXX/public_html/libraries/joomla/session/handler/joomla.php on line 71

I tried to execute the cron by entering the URL in a browser (wich worked before the upgrades) but I get the same error.

So what should I look after? I tried to see by myself and looked in forums, but can't nail how to have it work out.

Thanks for your help!

texts: Event part payment & multiple registration

texts:
We run courses that has different modules. For example

Module A
Module B
Module c

A participant can chose to attend Module A now and pay.

But couple of months down the line would want to sign up for Module B or C.

Issue I am facing is when registering online for 2nd time, its coming up with a message saying "Oops! You have already registered for this course".
Is there a way to solve this problem using civievent please?

PS:We cannot use contribution due to policy within organisation not to mix course payments & donation.

texts: How to force styles in CiviMail templates?

texts:
When a basic user uses a template to write an email, is there any way to force the styles in the message? For example, the most common case is when the user creates links in the message body and these are set to default blue color links.
OK, when the template includes CSS styles in the message body these are applied correctly, but then, when you send it, there are some mail clients that do not display these styles and because they require inline CSS styles.

Any ideas or tricks?

texts: changing membership type from fixed to rolling. What happens to existing memberships?

texts:
Our organization is relatively new, but we wish to change from fixed annual memberships to rolling.  I see it is easy to change that in the membership type, but wonder about how to make the needed changes to the existing membership since/start/end dates.
Currently, all memberships start on 1/1/2020, and end on 12/31/2020, but the memberships have a "member since" date that is the ACTUAL day they became members.  (All those dates are within 2020 also, since we are a new organization.)
What I would like, I believe, is to copy the "member since" date into the "Membership Start" date field, overwriting the January 1 date, and set the "end date" == the Start date + 1 year (overwriting 12/31/2020).  Is there likely to be any automatic way to do that as a global update?  (If I must do it manually, I can; there are under 200 memberships.)
Are there any "gotchas" involved in this?  Would I be wiser to create a new Membership type rather than change the existing one?  Should I edit the fields BEFORE I change the membership type rather than after?
If it matters, I am using CiviCRM 5.29.0 on Wordpress 5.5.1.  Thanks!

texts: Is it possible to extend an existing custom field set to allow multiple values?

texts:
I have a site with a number of custom field sets. I need to change one of those to allow multiple values. Specifically, the field set holds fields relating to a vehicle; the site now needs to allow each contact to have multiple vehicles. The field set in question is assigned only to the Individual contact type.

I can see the option "Does this Custom Field Set allow multiple records?" on the field set settings page, but I can't enable it. However, if I create a new field set, this option is available.

I"m assuming that once created, you can't enable this option on a field set, although I can't find this documented. But I want to be sure before I delete the field set and recreate it with this option enabled.

Thanks for any guidance on this one.


texts: Email sent via CiviRules removes unsubscribe token from email template

texts:
I tested an email template via CiviMail and the unsubscribe link works and the HTML shows it. In the source it comes up as

Unsubscribe here.

But if the same email template is triggered & sent via CiviRules (you can choose the template along with rules and conditions on how to trigger it), the tag shown above gets stripped out leaving just the text "Unsubscribe here" which has no link - just text! So no one can actually unsub.

Does anyone know how to deal with this? Is there a way to just use the link without using the token? I went through the CiviCRM documentation and didn't find what I was looking for :(

I tried the different versions of the tokens related to unsubscribe/opt out but no joy.

Cheers


texts:
I'm trying to manually register a participant for a specific event, but the registration form is showing custom profiles that I've created for completely unrelated events. I'm unable to complete the manual registration until I've made a selection for all these required fields. This particular event does not use the profiles being show or show these profile questions on the public registration page, they only appear in the manual event registration page, below the Registration Confirmation and Receipt section. I don't see any mention of this in the manual (https://docs.civicrm.org/user/en/latest/events/manual-event-registration/), which makes me wonder if it's a bug.

How are these profiles getting here and how can I get rid of them without completely deleting them from my database?

I'm running CiviCRM 5.8.2 on Drupal.

Our solution is clear - remove the test transactions. Also, end users won't have any test contributions so it won't be a problem for reporting for them.

However, Summary Fields seem to be including contributions that are marked as test - for instance, test event registrations. On the contribution tab, they are clearly marked as "Financial Type (test)".


texts: Upgrade from 4.5.8 to 4.6.2 killed View Contact Tabs

texts:
We consult with CiviCRM powered by Drupal. Recently we upgraded one client who has CiviCRM powered by the latest Drupal 6 from 4.5.8 to 4.6.2. After the upgrade, they are unable to click between the various tabs of a CiviContact record. They have tried multiple different browser products from I believe their Windows based computer.

Tabs are as follows on a particular CiviContact record:
    Summary
    Contributions 263
    Pledges 0
    Memberships 0
    Activities 61
    Events 7
    Relationships 0
    Groups 41
    Notes 2
    Tags 5
    Change Log 18

Always the lower content area is stuck showing the Summary details.
We see no troubles from Mozilla Firefox on Linux, or Google Chrome. I tried Chrome as they say that is their preferred browser.

Some time ago I recall some AJAX code getting broken in a couple of CiviCRM upgrade on Drupal 6. Perhaps that has happened again. Though odd this time it is specific to the operating system of the browser, not a cross-platform break.

Any other suggestions of information I might provide?

I am thankful,
Michael

We are using WP multisite and CiviCRM WordPress Member Sync. The portal is on the main site only.

texts:
I am attempting to perform form validation on various CiviCRM forms (profile forms and forms within contribution pages) by hooking into hook_civicrm_validateForm.

In my php code, I would like to differentiate between the different forms so that I can execute appropriate validation functions. According to the CiviCRM documentation, this can be done by checking against the $formName parameter.

While debugging, I found out that a contribution page I am using has a $formName of CRM_Contribute_Form_Contribution_Main. For a profile form its $formName is CRM_Profile_Form_Edit.

Is there a way of finding out how the names of form are defined? If so, does CiviCRM supporting assigning forms with custom form names?

Does anyone know of an extension / not technical approach that allows users to manually associate contributions with a membership when they have not been properly associated.
I've seen this happen for various reasons including user and system error. We sometimes write short scripts to fix this by creating entries in the civicrm_membership_payment table when it is easy to know what should be linked with what but it would be nice if users could do this on a one to one basis, 1) so they don't have to ask a developer and 2) for those times when it is not obvious what should happen (multiple memberships, contribution types, etc.)

I have just done a new install of WordPress and CiviCRM, it has displayed this warning when looking at the CiviCRM dashboard:

Environment Settings
Timestamps reported by MySQL (eg "2016-03-22 14:45") and PHP (eg "2016-03-22 20:45" ) are mismatched.

The link it refers to is this: https://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/checkMysqlTime

Which I have read but maybe I am missing something.

I ran this command on MySQL "SELECT TIMEDIFF( NOW( ) , UTC_TIMESTAMP );"
and it returns -06:00:00

So then in my php.ini I set date.timezone=America/Chicago to match, then as another precaution I went to the WordPress wp-admin dashboard in the settings and set the timezone to UTC-6 and yet the warning is still displaying, does anyone have any ideas?


texts: Checksum profile links not opening on mobile

texts:
Using CiviCRM 5.10.4 with Drupal 7.64.

Trying to use a checksum link in an email being sent out to a group, for them to submit a profile which has been pre-filled in with their details.

My link is below:

DOMAIN.com/civicrm/profile/edit?gid=23&reset=1&id={contact.contact_id}&{contact.checksum}

The link works perfectly in incognito on desktop, and when copying the link into a mobile web browser. However, when opening the test email on a mobile mail app (e.g. Mail on iOS)... clicking the link doesn't open anything. When I long-press the link I can see the full URL is there and I can copy the link into a browser, but actually clicking the link doesn't take me to my mobile web browser or trigger any action on my phone. Have tested this on multiple devices, though only iPhones.

Bit of a strange question I know, but does anyone know what I might be able to do to fix this? Annoying that it works everywhere except where the majority of our users check their email.

texts: In my organization, everyone raises support through Civi's typical donation processing.  Because everyone can view all of the records (both contact and transactional), it's easy for people to see how much support someone else has.

texts: Display all Contributions with event, membership etc details

texts:
Excuse me if I'm probably missing something obvious here...
Civi 4.6.18, Drupal 7.44

I want to build a simple report that shows:
Contribution fields, Contact name, Event name (if it came from an event), Membership type (if it came from a membership), etc. In one row.

Our finance team want to see all payments every month, and want to quickly see exactly what each payment was for.

It doesn't matter if some fields are blank - eg if membership fields are blank in a row that is about an event contribution.

I can't see a way to do this in Civi Reports, so turned to Views starting with the Contribution entity.

But I can't see a way to create a relationship to Participants in Views.

And I can make a relationship to memberships, but only if the payment is recurring. That doesn't cover all our membership possibilities.

Surely this would be a fairly standard report, so I'm wondering what to do? Thanks for your help!

24-8-16: Editing this to add more info:

If you create a View based on Civirm Contributions, in fact Membership details are in the fields available to the View. So that's half the story.

However, Participation fields are not available. Neither can you add a relationship to anything that looks like Civicrm Event tables. This is so after adding a relationship to the Contact ID.

So, if payments are made for events, there is no way to link the contribution to the event it is for, if you are starting from the Contribution table.

And if that is possible, the next question would be (with the advent of partial payment processing), if a part payment is made for an event, is there a way in Views to see the individual part payments?

If there was a bridge from the contribution table to event table(s) then we'd have our solution: a View that can show what payments are being made for, if they are membership or participant contributions.

Thanks again.


texts: What do civicrm extension "current usage" statistics indicate?

texts:
For example, Mosaico CiviCRM Integration shows "Current Usage: 3749". What does this number represent?
I imagine this is the number of live sites reporting that this extension has been in a certain state within a certain number of recent days, but what state (ever been installed / currently enabled / currently installed but disabled), and how many days (365 / 7 / 1)? Or is this number based on something more / less / else ?

  types filters allows us to filter by particular event types on
  calendar.

  If you are new to CiviCRM Extension you can get help about extension
  from

  https://github.com/fullcalendar/fullcalendar/releases/tag/v1.6.7

  Click Administrator->CiviEvent->Event Calendar Settings menu (civicrm/eventCalendarsettings) -- change the setting if required.
  Click Events->Show Events menu (civicrm/showevents) -- to view Event Calendar with Events as per settings.

I have followed the installation steps #1 and #2 given below.
Also where should I add the fullcalendar library ?
In the Usage as mentioned, I don't see Administrator -> CiviEvent -> Event Calendar and also Events -> Show Events.
Kindly help me debug on what is wrong ?


texts: DB error: already exists on contribute page

texts:
I'm on civi 4.6.2, with Drupal 7

I have a contribution page which is a contribution on behalf of an organisation, and also creates a user account for the website. I'm getting the error below on submit. Some searching suggests truncating the civicrm_uf_match table - but if I do that will the link between all the Drupal accounts on my site and their CiviCRM profiles be broken?

Thank you!

Robin

texts: What are the implications of changing the SITE_KEY?

See also Generating a new SITE_KEY

If I change the SITE_KEY in civicrm.settings.php, what might stop working as a result?

Eg:

Will checksums emailed to contacts last week still be valid?

We sent out a mailing this week - one in a series - and have so far had 1400+ opens from a list of 2600 or so.  However, despite the URL Click-through tracking being set to "On" we have only recored 3 click-throughs.  Data we have recorded in Google Analytics for the same mailing is much higher.

What reasons could there be for the click-through tracking not to work?
