I am new to Taiga and have started using it on a project with a small team. The backlog page has a header that says 'CUSTOMIZE YOUR BACKLOG GRAPH' and provides a link to Admin. However, I can not find anything under admin menu that would allow me to define or customize the graph. How do I update this section?
Very simple. Go to
Admin > Project > Modules > Backlog
Now you may configure the number of "Expected number of sprints" and "Expected total of story points". If you dont know how many story point you will may put 0. You may change these values any time you want. After writing the numbers, just click on the save disk, on the right side.
Now reload, and go to backlog tab.

My REST service is performing lots of http queries which I would like to monitor in my dashboard. In it's APM view I can choose from servlet.request operation name or netty.client.request. The former one is the primary operation, while the latter one is additional operation.
What I managed to do was that I am able to build a widget in the dashboard which uses metric-type source like this: default_zero(sum:trace.netty.client.request.hits.by_http_status{$env,$service,!http.status_code:200}.as_count()) and it works, it shows me the number of errors client is getting, but when I click on the widget and choose show related traces I do not see traces related with netty.client.request operation, but the ones related with servlet.request. The reason for it was that it generates following query env:prod service:payments-braintree-gateway -#http.status_code:200, which does not include operation name, nor "all spans" (next paragraph explains it)
So I went to traces view in APM and I tried doing the query I wanted, there. Initially I was only able to choose one operation in the filters - servlet.request, but I noticed a button next to search bar labeled in, where you can choose in which set of spans to search for. There are 2 options: service entry spans and all... Switching to all made it possible to create a query I am interested in: $env $service operation_name:netty.client.request -#http.status_code:(200) and it works... So the only thing left was to use it in the dashboard.
Now when I am back in the dashboard's widget I fiddled with the query in json, I tried to edit context menu links, I even changed metric type from "metric" to APM... All in vein. Looks like it is impossible to use non service entry spans in widgets.
Funny thing is that I even exported from APM's service view error graph to dashboard and then clicked "show related traces" it still showed incorrect thing, while "show related traces" option in the graph in the APM takes me to the correct view in traces
So... is it possible to fix "show related traces" button in the DataDog dashboards?
Looks like the only doable solution is to hide standard traces link and create new custom link. Downside is that it is going to open a new APM browser tab instead showing traces in the modal at the right hand side of the screen, but at least it works. Still ideas how to tackle it differently are welcome of course :)
Like the topic say I want to overwrite/change the "Menu Manager: Edit Menu item" layout. To illustrate my question:
In the picture whiche is shown I want to change the labels: Layout, Option, Integration.... and add some other options to it. How can I do it? Or is this even possible?
In order to change the text, simply use language overrides, google is your friend.
In order to add functionality, let's first of all explain what we're talking about to ensure we're on the same page.
Joomla components have views which can have one or more layouts, i.e.
/components/com_content/views/category/tmpl/ contains two layouts, blog and default.
A layout can additionally contain an .xml manifest (in our case, blog.xml and default.xml) allowing us to create a menu item for the specific view/layout combination. The .xml file contains the parameters that the user will set, you can add your own as well.
When you want to change Joomla, usually there is a way to do so without touching the core, which would be pretty bad, as any Joomla! updates would break your work.
For the view layouts a special feature called template override was developed, which allows you to create an alternative to the view layout in a safe place (under your template folder, in this case your admin template), and this is the most elegant and effective way to achieve your result.
Beware though, you are just creating a layout, most likely you will want to add functionality, if it's complex you might be better off creating a dedicated component to keep the code clean. Or you can just put all the logic in your view, query the database from there. But in this latter case, get paid, and run away. Never answer the phone to the customer again.
A final alternative is to write a system plugin that will manipulate the page markup after it was generated in the event onAfterRender(). This is a simple and good approach if you only want to add a button or make minor changes, but if you do anything more than that, see the above advise about running away.
I am building a new website in Joomla 3 and here is some really weird behavior i just stumbled over…
I get a wrong URL in Menu Items and read more links, saying, e.g
website.de/weOffer/drinks/Read%20Private%20Message/beer.
I would give you a real URL, but the project is still under development and classified.
The /Read%20Private%20Message/ part in the URL obviously does not belong there and gets inserted by joomla by default. The result of course is fatal. Not only the menu items aren't working, the read more links aren't either, all leading to 404 errors !
To go into more detail, here is what i have set up and what i have found out so far.
I have made a category blog, where articles are listed, each with a read more link in it, which works as expected.
Now each full text article should have its own slideshow and a couple of other modules, like a facts box in it.
Thats why, the article itself must show up as a menu item as well, so in the module manager i can select, that a specific slideshow module is used in this specific article only.
Therefore i have created menu items with the type of single article that links to the defined Article.
The main menu represents the page tree, each category blog has links to single articles as children. Some cat blog have cat blogs as children and then articles.
This setup works as expected, as long as i don't set the article menu item as a child of the category blog of the category the article itself belongs to.
Example:
MENU =
we offer(catblog) -> drinks(catblog) -> beer(singlearticle)
ARTICLEMANAGER
beer(category: drinks)
RESULT: wrong URL as above.
I can fix the error, by using rebuild in the menu manager, but thats only half way done. The menu URL is getting fixed, but than i have to go into the article itself, remove the read more and insert it back again, because the read private message doesnt get removed, even when i clear my cache. When i am done re-saving the readmore link, everything works like normal, until i save the article menu item the next time. Read Private Message bug is back again, up for another round.
I am a SuperUser, so i suspect i have all rights possible in joomla...
This must have something to do with Search engine friendly URLS (SEF), since it only occurs when i have SEF and mod rewrite turned on. I am using the default .htaccess file without any changes.
Here are some people with a similar problem, but no satisfying solution is given:
http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?t=802045
http://www.jevents.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=19620
I have read about migration and update errors, leading to the same problem.
I migrated manually (sql backup, change of some path in config file) from local apache to 1&1 apache server, both running PHP 5.4, so i doubt that this is a migration issue Plus the problem also appears when i create new articles and menu items (under the parent category).
Changing aliases in both menu items and article itself does not have any effect.
I really hope somebody could give me a hint, or maybe even just confirm that this is a bug If this is designed behavior than whats the reason for it ?.
I am quite frustrated about it and i don't have that many options left since:
1. SEF is a MUST (to my client)
2. Changing the menu tree structure, so that the linked items are no longer children of their cat block parent destroys my breadcrumbs.
3. rebuild and change every menu item and article manually 2 to 3 times is time consuming, error prone, annoying and i don#t want to sell a product to a client like this, since they want to maintain it for themselves as far as posiible.
Your help is really appreciated !

For some reason when somebody performs a search on my site the search results do not display underneath the search box, they appear on the far left of the screen.
Any ideas of what file this would be configured in?
Let me correct myself it's not the search results but the search suggestions
I can't offer a direct solution to your problem, but turning on template hints might point you in the right direction. In the Admin, go to System > Configuration, Select your store view from the scope drop down at the top left. Unless you're running multi-store, or have changed the name of the default store it'll be called "Default Store View". Then scroll down to "Developer" and open up the "Debug" section. Turn on both Template Path Hints" and "Add Block Names to Hints". This will add a div with a red border around each template in your layout and a heading which includes the name of the template. It will liklely completely screw up your page layout, but will show you which template generated every tag on the page and help you track down the issue.
The DeveloperToolbar extension makes turning this on/off quickly much easier, but I wouldn't recommend deploying it to a production site.
Alan Storm's indispensable CommerceBug is another tool which is very handly for tracking down front end issues. CommerdeBug can show you the layout handles and the aggregate layout XML used to generate the current page. Both of which are useful for determing why a specific block was (or wasn't) included.
So in case anybody else runs into this or wants to move where their search suggestions display it is in styles.css under .searchautocomplete.
I wanted to open up the topic to discuss ways to encourage or incentivize users to fill in information in a user profile on a website, such as skills, location, organization, etc. More information in a user profile can give a website an improved capability for its users to search, network, and collaborate.
Without bugging users to fill in their profiles (ie - via annoying e-mail reminders), what other ways have you come up with to encourage user input?
I have noticed that a simple graphic image (showing percentage complete..some thing like a battery icon on the cell) next to the username ( to the user) with a hover text (your profile is x% complete - click here) works.
I find the Stack Overflow concept of badges or some other kind of reward hook very useful for this kind of thing. You could of course limit access to features also based on information in the profile.
Make filling in this information a benefit for the users. For example, "if you fill in your location, we can filter search results based on that information."
It's all about making the user get perceived benefit from doing an action.
Linking to a privacy policy that is devoid of legalese and doesn't cause the user to navigate away from the forms to fill out their profile usually helps. Additionally, marking any field that will be public with "Viewable to everyone" in addition to marking the rest with "Private" will also help. Whenever possible, make the private fields optional.
E.g for every field, let them expand a container that explains how the data in that field will be used, in plain language.
A quick search will turn up a ton of controversy surrounding Facebook, Google and more regarding privacy. Make sure the form adequately puts out fear fires.
Additionally, limit the number of questions, make sure the tab key works as expected, etc, etc.. but that's all general usability.
Exposing the benefit, in some form of feedback is a really good way to go - show your users that they have gotten something out of it.
Trophies, or some sort of social effect ("45 users have filled in their profile, will you?") are good ideas.
Another option is to show the user a "percentage completed" bar of their profile (like LinkedIn does, called "Profile Completeness"). Many people will feel the need to get that bar up to 100%.
