However, some customers prefer a different solution than youtube so then it's a matter of sourcing 3rd party solutions (with varying levels of functionality and security, and cost).  Your recommendation of utilizing a video-layer seems to be the next cost-effective and easier approach (for the customer). I've never utilized VPlayed but I have worked with companies that provide a video solution (like with sports coaching and refereeing) and have found it fairly stable and useful.  It's typically a better branded look as well.

So, not a bug...just needed to adjust my html/php/css code.  I appreciate it.

<?php if ($servicesRecord['alternate_content']): ?>
	<div<?php if ($servicesRecord['alternate_color']): ?> style="background-color:#<?php echo $servicesRecord['alternate_color'] ?>;"<?php endif ?>>
		<div class="breathingspace">
			<div class="altpage">
			<?php echo $servicesRecord['alternate_content'] ?>
			</div>
		</div>
	</div>
<?php endif ?>

The stylesheet for "altpage" div is simple:

.altpage	{
	width: 100%;
	padding: 10px;
	border: 10px;
}

Attached are screenshots of the cmsb WYSIWYG field filled in, and the resulting source code.

What should happen, and used to happen, is all the WYSIWYG code gets dumped into the Details page between my html/php code (as outlined above in the "altpage" div) and should be fine after that.  I typically do not use a "clearing" code in the css as haven't for years (maybe that's a fix if the WYSIWYG isn't going to change?).  What happens in the browser is the data from the WYSIWYG field breaks out of, and through, the divs.  I tried to deleting and redoing it...it's a consistent issue.  Do you think I need to adjust my php/html or is this truly a bug?

Thanks in advance.

So, a repeater field would seem to be a great idea to avoid recreating this 20+ times on a site.  Maybe there is another way to do this: If there was a place to put the master list of color choices one time, and be able to reference that list (related record?)...but it seems a repeater field for this may be most appropriate.  Am I thinking correctly with repeater fields?

Fields I repeat in multiple sections of every site I build (sometimes more than 3 of each such as for a classic car site, pets, etc. but you get the point...fields constantly retyping cmsb fields and php code for over and over):

* YouTube video Id fields:

[YT_ID1]…[YT_ID2]… 3, etc..   In this text field the user simply enters the youtube id such as "EZZfRJAF9W8" for the video they want to appear on the page and [yt_video_text2 ] for any custom title text for that video.

On the html page I have, as a partial example for the field YT_ID2:

                                                <div class="video-container">

                                                            <div class="youtube-player" data-id="<?php echo ($record['yt_id2']) ?>" title="RV video about <?php echo $record['yt_video_text2'] ?>" alt="RV video about <?php echo $record['yt_video_text2'] ?>"></div>

                                                </div>

* On nearly every page, in every section, of every site I build I include fields for targeted keywords and social media tags, such as:

Keyword 1, Keyword 2,Keyword 3 and SocialMedia 1, SocialMedia 2, SocialMedia 3, etc. 

these are text fields that get specific placement within the build of each page so they are caught and read by the search engines and may appear via the following html:

<?php if ($faqsRecord['keyword_1']): ?> - <?php echo htmlencode ($faqsRecord['keyword_1']) ?><?php endif ?>

<div class="socialmedia">

                        <?php if ($genfaqsRecord['social_media_1']): ?>                                                                                                                           

                                    <span class="socialmediatext">#<?php echo htmlencode ($genfaqsRecord['social_media_1']) ?>

                                    </span>

                        <?php endif ?>

                        <?php if ($genfaqsRecord['social_media_2']): ?>                                                                                                                           

                                    <span class="socialmediatext">#<?php echo htmlencode ($genfaqsRecord['social_media_2']) ?>

                                    </span>

                        <?php endif ?>

                        <?php if ($genfaqsRecord['social_media_3']): ?>                                                                                                                           

                                    <span class="socialmediatext">#<?php echo htmlencode ($genfaqsRecord['social_media_3']) ?>

                                    </span>

                        <?php endif ?>

            </div>

*In many sections, especially FAQs, I put a section for "related information" in case the user wants to display relevant related information to the topic either within or without their website.  The fields I use are related_1 with related_1_url:

<!--begin related information area-->

            <?php if ($genfaqsRecord['related_1']): ?>

                        <div class="ifinterested">Additional Information...

                        </div>

                        <div class="inversebox">

                                    <?php if ($genfaqsRecord['related_1']): ?>

                                                <a href="<?php echo htmlencode($genfaqsRecord['related_1_url']) ?>" target="_blank">

                                                            <div class="tinbox">

                                                                        <?php echo htmlencode($genfaqsRecord['related_1']) ?>

                                                            </div>

                                                </a>

                                    <?php endif ?>

                                    <?php if ($genfaqsRecord['related_2']): ?>

                                                <a href="<?php echo htmlencode($genfaqsRecord['related_2_url']) ?>" target="_blank">

                                                            <div class="tinbox">                    

                                                                        <?php echo htmlencode($genfaqsRecord['related_2']) ?>

                                                            </div>                                               

                                                </a>

                                    <?php endif ?>

                                    <?php if ($genfaqsRecord['related_3']): ?>

                                                <a href="<?php echo htmlencode($genfaqsRecord['related_3_url']) ?>" target="_blank">

                                                            <div class="tinbox">

                                                                        <?php echo htmlencode($genfaqsRecord['related_3']) ?>

                                                            </div>

                                                </a>

                                    <?php endif ?>

                                    <div class="centered"><span class="relatedinfo">[links open in a new window]</span></div>

                        </div>

            <?php endif ?>

I just updated from cmsb 3.76 to 3.77 and found my first, hopefully only, bug.  ;-)

I just went into an About section I had created.  Three of the fields in that section are titled Social Media 1, Social Media 2, and Social Media 3.  After the update the name of the field had changed to "Automatically imported from MySQL" and the field type had changed to "none".

I simply hand modified the field name and field type to be what they should be and it corrected. Before I corrected the 3rd one I snapped a screenshot so you could see it (attached).

Thank you for catching and updating this plugin.  I downloaded it from your link in this forum. I just happened to be reviewing other plugins in the plugins section of your site. Version 1.18 is listed there BUT with a date of 2024.  Maybe a correction, or uploading the corrective plugin into the plugins section of your site. 

For some other clients I create replicas of certain sections and add an "Archive" field.  Any record with "archive" checked stops showing in the current publicly viewable records and then appears in archived publicly viewable records.  For them it allows any pages previously built and captured by search engines to be retained but doesn't overload their gallery or available listings.  Example: Classic Car For Sale Gallery. At any given time the business has 75 cars available, but have sold hundreds and thousands.  That's a lot of searchable and indexed data to just dump.  The business wants to keep the data out there but doesn't want their car for sale listings to be overrun by old sold car listings. So this is a win for the business and their prospective customers.

An interesting challenge just occurred...and I realize that correlation is not causation, but...

I just logged in to make a couple minor changes in cmsb, on the general settings page (wanted to change language choice from en-CA to en, and a couple other items for my client).  When I clicked "save" I got a 406 error informing that something on the page violated MOD security.  I logged out. Cleared cache/cookies/hist/temp, etc. and reopened Firefox and attempted it again. Therefore, I logged in to the host and disabled MOD security. Waited a few minutes. Re-cleared all and reopened Firefox again. No change. Same error.  Just to be sure I opened up the site in Edge, went to general settings page, clicked 'save' and got the same 406 error. I went to other sections in cmsb and did small modifications and had no issues saving...the challenge is ONLY on the general settings page.

Reviewing the recent changes listed at the bottom of the general settings page I noticed the my client's host auto-updated PHP 8.3.16 to 8.3.19 a couple days ago. So I changed the php version to 8.2.28 and waited a few minutes.  Went into the general settings again, changed the language, clicked save, and it saved like it should.  So then I logged back into the host and turned MOD security on. Waited a few minutes. Logged back into the site's cmsb section, clicked 'save' on the general settings page and now get a 406 error again.  Did one more test. Turned MOD sec off and was able to save the general settings. Turned MOD back on and get an error.  

So I was considering re-uploading cmsb but remembered this forum. Until this week cmsb has been running as expected.  I am using this same version for other sites and have not run into this issue...but those sites are not running above PHP8.2.28. 

Why I'm asking is this: I set up cmsb for a client and whenever an application is submitted to the backend the submitter and the site owner get confirmation emails. This customer says she is slow to pick up her emails and they get lost in all the fluff and is asking about receiving a text to her phone whenever an app is submitted. She will probably max out at 2 dozen applications per year so it's a minimal usage. She has a cellphone and she also has a google voice number so I'm trying to figure out the quickest and least expensive method to help her with that is us-based. 

here's a snapshot of the use count screen.

12212024 update: Basically what occurred was that this client may have only had 900 records in the database but each of those records had an average of 200 high-res photos...and 4 upload thumbnails of each. We moved from a heavy-horsepower shared hosting to vps entry level. So while the power and speed of the vps was essentially there, the resource usage of memory was over the top and thus that particular section would crash. By modifying the cmsb section to display 100 records at a time (instead of ALL) and also modifying the list .php page on the front end to only 100 at a time the situation immediately leveled out. Customer is happy and visitors, especially on mobile, are happy.  I want to thank Tim and Dave for jumping on this and squaring it away extremely fast. 

Thank you gentlemen!
