Well along the Zend Framework journey, the biggest issue now is performance, since the applications run on shared hosting accounts. We have caching enabled for the navigation menus, translation, and even Doctrine queries, however the pages still load slow.
Well now back after a few weeks caught between the new baby and closing out a few projects.
Well it has been some time since I wrote, but it has been pretty busy over at work, with one issue after another to be resolved.
The journey is still going on, the porting still happening. So what happens when the you need to setup up an autoloader so that you can remove all the include, include_once, require, require_once calls in the different classes.
Like all things to be done, this should be the simplest, just drag, drop and boom a page would automagically appear.
The development team that I lead is standardizing on Zend Framework (http://www.framework.zend.com) as a development platform. This category of posts will be dealing with the issues that we are running into, and how we are solving them, to help alleviate other people’s pain.
Well the problem still stands, my client has 3 levels of content and Joomla 1.5 only supports 2.
The things clients make you go through … We have been working on a rush magazine job using Joomla (http://www.joomla.org) , and all was fine until the client brought out their “Mind Map” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_map) essentially a representation of the information architecture for their site. And like no other, they had 3 and 4 levels of content that had to be incorporated into the site.
As we get into the holiday mood it seems a rush in order to solve eminent problems that have plagued us throught the year.
If you are developing or updating a site hosted by Intuit Websites (http://www.intuit.com/website-building-software/) you need to be careful when publishing behind a proxy.
