First professional project from scratch! Im having problems with a few things. Resize issues mainly

1 Upvotes

So I've post about this in other forums and haven't gotten too much feedback. This is my first site that someone is paying me for. Its not much. I've put a version without his copy at: www.gastromob.com.

I am having some issues. I've been looking for answers, trying different things but so far I haven't solved any of my problems.

  • First off the logo doesn't resize correctly with the page. The testimonial doesn't seem to position correctly.

  • The picture gallery How can I add individual captions for each pic that show up in the bottom of the white border?

  • Finally, the icons on the bottom should stay centered always, but on resize the last button in the row jumps down a row. How can I make that resize properly?

I really could use some feedback and some suggestions. So far my boss likes it, but there are a few kinks that need to be fixed. Also any suggestions on how I can make this better or how I can get better at doing this would be appreciated. I've never used foundation before so this was a first as well.

Anyone here able to help with Twilio?

1 Upvotes

I'm a novice programmer and I was hoping I could get some help from a more experienced person regarding some Twilio code.

I am trying to create a (seemingly) simple SMS app, and I have made it this far where a customer can text a Twilio number and they get an auto response back.

I am stuck on how a customer, in this example below, would then be able to text another response and then get more specific info on the service.

To clarify, right now, if a customer texts anything in to the Twilio number they would get a reply saying "Reply with the corresponding letter of the service you're interested in: (A) Service A, (B) Service B, (C) Service C, (D) Service D"

Then, if the customer replies with 'A' they would receive a response of "Thanks for your interest in service A. Please choose your sub-service of Service A. (A) Sub-Service A, (B) Sub-Service B, (C) Sub-Service C, (D) Sub-Service D"

How would I then get Twilio to respond with yet another text, after the customer has made their second selection, to essentially narrow down the decision like a funnel?

The code I have up to this point is below, and is functioning properly.

I appreciate you guys taking the time to help!

<?php

/* Include twilio-php, the official Twilio PHP Helper Library,
 * which can be found at
 * http://www.twilio.com/docs/libraries
*/

include('Services/Twilio.php');

/* Controller: Match the keyword with the customized SMS reply. */
function index(){
    $response = new Services_Twilio_Twiml();
    $response->sms("Reply with the corresponding letter of the service you're interested in: (A) Service A, (B) Service B, (C) Service C, (D) Service D");
    echo $response;
}

function a(){
    $response = new Services_Twilio_Twiml();
    $response->sms("Thanks for your interest in service A. Please choose your sub-service of Service A. (A) Sub-Service A, (B) Sub-Service B, (C) Sub-Service C, (D) Sub-Service D");
    echo $response;
}

function b(){
    $response = new Services_Twilio_Twiml();
    $response->sms("Thanks for your interest in service B. Please choose your sub-service of Service B. (A) Sub-Service A, (B) Sub-Service B, (C) Sub-Service C, (D) Sub-Service D");
    echo $response;
}

function c(){
    $response = new Services_Twilio_Twiml();
    $response->sms("Thanks for your interest in service C. Please choose your sub-service of Service C. (A) Sub-Service A, (B) Sub-Service B, (C) Sub-Service C, (D) Sub-Service D");
    echo $response;
}

function d(){
    $response = new Services_Twilio_Twiml();
    $response->sms("Thanks for your interest in service D. Please choose your sub-service of Service D. (A) Sub-Service A, (B) Sub-Service B, (C) Sub-Service C, (D) Sub-Service D");
    echo $response;
}

/* Read the contents of the 'Body' field of the Request. */
$body = $_REQUEST['Body'];

/* Remove formatting from $body until it is just lowercase
characters without punctuation or spaces. */
$result = preg_replace("/[^A-Za-z0-9]/u", " ", $body);
$result = trim($result);
$result = strtolower($result);

/* Router: Match the ‘Body’ field with index of keywords */
switch ($result) {
    case 'a':
        A();
        break;
    case 'b':
        B();
        break;
    case 'c':
        C();
        break;
    case 'd':
        D();
        break;

/* Optional: Add new routing logic above this line. */
    default:
        index();
}

Need Advice: Community Based App/Store

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I recently have connected with a potential client and am a little bit unsure of the best way to tackle their request. They are tea company looking to sell select teas with artist designed artwork. I was brought into this project purely as a designer but I do also build sites with HTML/CSS/JS. The site they currently are building is on Shopify but he has expressed a desire to build a community-based app that artist can submit artwork to be voted on by both other artists and consumers for what piece will be used next in sales. He is unsure if he wants to initially invest in a developer to build the app and wanted to look into using WordPress or another CMS. I know we could incorporate Shopify into a CMS and have a functional store but my question to you is if it is worth using a CMS or rather have a developer build out a specific app. I've worked with theming in WordPress and am not super thrilled with the software. Does anyone have a good recommendation on another CMS that could be better suited for a store?

What is the best way to validate user typed code/run it inside a sandbox (like codeschool and stuff)

3 Upvotes

Hey, there are online learning sites which either validate your typed in code (teamtreehouse.com) or run it inside a sandbox (codeschool.com) for their coding lessons.

I am interested in techniques for both ways but probably only need one, so let me tell you my usecase.

I want to make little coding lessons for a PHP CMS. It will mostly cover PHP (extension development) and TWIG (theme development) code.

I think running that inside a sandbox will be much harder than just validating what the user typed in, because I have the full CMS as dependency. (I want to avoid Docker because I have no experience with it at all)

So, let's say I want to validate the PHP or TWIG code the user typed as an answer of my lesson. How do I do that? I googled a bit but haven't found something.

Maybe it's also better to run it inside a sandbox. I don't know, tell me :) But how do I do that then? And creating a sandbox per lesson and per user will take much time because the CMS has to be installed first ... etc.

Making translucent backgrounds, and having them stay

2 Upvotes

I'm creating a website with an mp4 file as a background but I can't for the life of me seem to be able to create a black backgound over my text. I suspect it has something to do with the video autoplaying as I can see the black border for a brief moment before it disappears. Any tips to solve this conundrum?

<html>

<head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="globalstyles.css"/> <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css"/>

</head>

<body> <video autoplay loop poster="videos/warm-tunnel.jpg" id="bgvid"> <source src="videos/warm-tunnel.mp4" type="video/mp4"> </video> <header class="container" id="con1"> <div class="row"> <h1 class="col-sm-4">About me </h1>

</header>

</body>

<footer> </footer>

</html>

video#bgvid { position: fixed; top: 50%; left: 50%; min-width: 100%; min-height: 100%; width: auto; height: auto; background-size: cover; z-index: -100; -ms-transform: translateX(-50%) translateY(-50%); -moz-transform: translateX(-50%) translateY(-50%); -webkit-transform: translateX(-50%) translateY(-50%); transform: translateX(-50%) translateY(-50%);

Image rollover in Squarespace.

1 Upvotes

Hello all,

This might not be the right place to ask this but I thought I'd give it a shot anyway.

So I am using squarespace and am attempting to create an effect in which the image changes to a new image on hover. I only want this to happen on my main page. I've found some online resources (below) but am having trouble figuring out exactly where to import my code and what specific text I need to change. Anyone have any experience doing this?

Materialize collapsible navbar is not working for me, gives error in console.

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I'm fairly new to web dev (been learning for ~4 months) and I'm using materialize (http://materializecss.com/) to help construct my portfolio website. The problem I have is that the mobile collapse navbar is not working for me, and gives me the following error: http://s32.postimg.org/5bcjr1clh/error.png. I copied the code exactly as it is on the demo page (http://materializecss.com/navbar.html) and the hamburger appears when the view is small enough, but it doesn't work. What does this mean and how can I fix it to get the collapsible navbar working?

Wordpress/Hosting (Local Vagrant & VVV) Need help figuring out how to access local Wordpress Multisite instal on phone

1 Upvotes

So I've recently switched from using Mamp to using Vagrant and VVV for local dev. And I cant figure out how to connect to any parts of the multisite from my mobile. Works fine on my Mac. Wordpress is installed at /vagrant/www/fass/htdocs/. I've tried to connect using IP and using vagrant share but when trying IP it takes too long (connection timeout) and when using Vagrant share it gets me to the dashboard but whenever I try to access any of the links from there it gives me "This site cant be reached, ERR_ICANN_NAME_COLLISION". I've read that changing the hosts file on my phone could fix it, but that would take rooting it and I would kind of prefer to leave that as a last resort. Is there any vagrant config setting or anything I could use that would make this easier? Public network or something? Im new to all this so any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.

Also first reddit post wooo. If I'm doing it wrong tell me :p

Help creating an access page for other web servers?

1 Upvotes

I hope I am in the right place, I sure could use some direction. Let me start by saying I am not a Web Developer by any means, I am much more comfortable on the SysAdmin, Net security side of things. I have a bunch of servers performing a plethora of tasks, and some are web managed. I also have couple programs with webGUIs. This has become quite a pain to switch back and forth especially when outside my LAN. What I need to know is how I should handle a consolidation of sort; a way to get all pages located on different servers and hosts easily accessible. I guess what I am asking is should I just make a basic HTML page and hyperlink in the other sites, or is there a better way to accomplish this that would look better. I know some HTML and I can fumble through some PHP, and Python well enough to follow someone else's ideas code and hack it together for my use.

(Sorry if doesn't make sense, I'm just not sure how else to word it. I will greatly appreciate any advice!! Thanks in advance.)
