I'm not sure if this is even possible but I have a Joomla 1.5 installation and I'm updating to 3.1.5 but the problem is the current site used a plugin which uses the Key Reference of each article to generate the Meta Page Title and I need to take this info from each article (220+) and put it under params in the menu item so I currently have the following;
Article
TABLE joscontent COLUMN id VALUE 39
TABLE joscontent COLUMN attribs VALUE:
show_title=
link_titles=
show_intro=
show_section=
link_section=
show_category=
link_category=
show_vote=
show_author=
show_create_date=
show_modify_date=
show_pdf_icon=
show_print_icon=
show_email_icon=
language=
keyref=Page Title Value is Currently Here
readmore=
MENU ITEM
table column value
jos_menu link index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=39
jos_menu params
show_noauth=
show_title=
link_titles=
show_intro=
show_section=
link_section=
show_category=
link_category=
show_author=
show_create_date=
show_modify_date=
show_item_navigation=
show_readmore=
show_vote=
show_icons=
show_pdf_icon=
show_print_icon=
show_email_icon=
show_hits=
feed_summary=
page_title=
show_page_title=1
pageclass_sfx=
menu_image=-1
secure=0
So is there a way i can submit an SQL query that will take the keyref value from the attribs column and insert the page_title value of the params colum where the Article ID matches the id used in the menu link and this will do every article on the site.
Hope this makes sense!
EDIT THIS SOLUTION WORKED
update jos_menu jm
set params = (select concat('show_noauth=
show_title=
link_titles=
show_intro=
show_section=
link_section=
show_category=
link_category=
show_author=
show_create_date=
show_modify_date=
show_item_navigation=
show_readmore=
show_vote=
show_icons=
show_pdf_icon=
show_print_icon=
show_email_icon=
show_hits=
feed_summary=
page_title=',
replace(substr(attribs, locate('keyref=', attribs)+7), 'readmore=', ''),
'
show_page_title=1
pageclass_sfx=
menu_image=-1
secure=0 ')
from jos_content jc
where jm.link = concat('index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=', jc.id))
where Instr(jm.link, 'index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=')
You might find a single SQL statement that can do this by using some tricky regular expressions. But I would really suggest that you write a script in PHP which loops through all records and does this job. this will give you more control and the ability to make some error checks.

I've got a WooCommerce set up where I currently need to do two things. The first is to move data that is currently in the post.excerpt field to an ACF field that I've created specifically for the purpose while the second is to update the post.excerpt field with new data. All the product data is in SQL-Server Express because the product data came from another website that we're replacing with the WooCommerce one. I exported all the Woocommerce products with basic info like the product ID, SKU, Title and Post_Content and wrote a query in SQL-Server to match the two together. That's been exported as a flat file and imported into MySQL. Now I've writen a query to update the post.excerpt field but what I can't find is a way to update the ACF field in the same query (or another one).
set
'wp.posts'.'post.excerpt' = 'updatelist'.'excerpt'
From 'updatelist'
where
'wp_posts'.'ID' = 'updatelist'.'product_id'
Can anyone help? Please don't suggesting importing a CSV file. There's 180,000 products and using a csv, well it's about 10% of the way through and has taken, so far, 24 hours.
To update ACF fields, first i would usually prepare an aray of key-value pairs of ACF fields to loop over and update them:
# first prepare your array of ACF fields you need to update
acf_fields = [
'field_5f70*********' => 'product_name',
'field_5f80*********' => 'product_color',
'field_5f90*********' => 'product_price'
];
# to find the key values for your own ACF fields, just go to admin dashboard under custom fields, select your group of ACF fields and then on the "Edit Field Group" you see those keys. If you don't see them, choose "screen options" and select "fields keys".
# Now we're going to loop over them and update each field
foreach(acf_fields as $key => $name){
update_field(a, b, c);
# a = $key
# b = value to be updated which comes from your old list (from querying your list)
# c = which post it belongs to (custom query for your custom post type that contains ACF fields)
};
That's how i update my ACF fields, there are other methods using Wordpress REST API too.
I am a beginner in QTP and I am working on an application where there are two different web tables displayed.
The second web table is detail description of the first web table so it displays when we select a row in the first web table.
In other words, Each row in the first table is selectable and when selected corresponds to the second web table
Web table 1 contains something like below for a user
RelationShip | Name
Father | AAA
Mother | BBB
Brother | CCC
Sister | DDD
Sister2 | EEE
Web Table 2 Contains detailed information for each row in Web Table 1 as I earlier mentioned. SO for Father, the below table is reflected
Details
Name | AAA
Age | 50
Relationship | Father
and so on
Second User might/might not have brother/sister.
The problem now I am facing is retrieving data from second web table for different entity of first one since all the property of the web table are similar expect the below property
"html ID" which corresponds to - "DetailParty_randomno"
This random number is the one which defines the uniqueness of the second web table, which can be retrieved from the first web table though it isn't found in the properties section when we use the Object spy.
I can see this random number when I view the source code of the page. It's displayed as value entity in the tr tag
Value entity looks like "Party_randomno"
<tr style="background-color:yellow" value="Party_1" onclick="Call peoplehighlight("Party_1")" language="vbscript">
My question is if there a way to retrieve this value for each row and then use it in identifying the second web table?
However I did try to read from second table by hard coding "html id" in webtable property to see if it's being read but it didn't work
So my second question is with respect to the correctness of the below descriptive programming code. Is there something else I need to include/exclude in the WebTable property to find uniqueness.
I also did my research and found that it's useful to use index but I am not aware on how to find the index of a web table? Also the index changes for each user I am searching and hence I need to find the index of the table during run time before using it
BrowserName = Browser("micClass:=Browser").GetROProperty("name")
PageName= Browser("micClass:=Browser").Page("micClass:=Page")GetROProperty("name")
Set desc = Description.Create()
desc("html tag").Value = "tr"
Set Rows = Browser("B").Page("P").Webtable("WT").ChildObjects(desc)
RoCounter = Rows.Count-1
For valuecount = 0 To RoCounter
id= rows(i).Object.GetAttribute("value")
Next
'When the right ID is got, parsing it in the below for WT2 Identification
Set ObjTable = Browser("name:="&Browsername).Page("name:="& Pagename).WebTable("class:=Web_Table", "html id:=Detail"&id)
Update
I was able to get the value from the source code using Motti's code. needed to tweak a little and my descriptive programming had spaces between name and : so the objetct wasn't being recognized. It's solved now.
When looking at the description you gave to your WebTable I find it hard to see what you're trying to achieve. class in QTP is mapped to the html className property are you sure that Web_Table is correct className? Also there is (AFAIK) no class name property in QTP, if you mean the test object type then there's no need to add it since you already said that the object is a WebTable.
To answer your question, in order to add indexing you just add "index:=1" to the smart identification (or in the description if you're using the object repository), note that index is zero based so 1 is the second object that matches the description (if there are more than one, if there is only one the index is ignored).
In order to get the random number you can try something like this (untested)
Set desc = Description.Create()
desc("html tag").Value = "tr"
Set rows = Browser("B").Page("P").WebTable("T").ChildObjects(desc)
For i = 0 To rows.Count - 1
id = rows(i).GetROProperty("value") ' Or whatever you need here

I am missing the SQL out of this to Bulk update attributes by SKU/UPC.
Running EE1.10 FYI
I have all the rest of the code working but I"m not sure the who/what/why of
actually updating our attributes, and haven't been able to find them, my logic
is
Open a CSV and grab all skus and associated attrib into a 2d array
Parse the SKU into an entity_id
Take the entity_id and the attribute and run updates until finished
Take the rest of the day of since its Friday
Here's my (almost finished) code, I would GREATLY appreciate some help.
/**
* FUNCTION: updateAttrib
*
* REQS: $db_magento
* Session resource
*
* REQS: entity_id
* Product entity value
*
* REQS: $attrib
* Attribute to alter
*
*/
See my response for working production code. Hope this helps someone in the Magento community.
While this may technically work, the code you have written is just about the last way you should do this.
In Magento, you really should be using the models provided by the code and not write database queries on your own.
In your case, if you need to update attributes for 1 or many products, there is a way for you to do that very quickly (and pretty safely).
If you look in: /app/code/core/Mage/Adminhtml/controllers/Catalog/Product/Action/AttributeController.php you will find that this controller is dedicated to updating multiple products quickly.
If you look in the saveAction() function you will find the following line of code:
Mage::getSingleton('catalog/product_action')
->updateAttributes($this->_getHelper()->getProductIds(), $attributesData, $storeId);
This code is responsible for updating all the product IDs you want, only the changed attributes for any single store at a time.
The first parameter is basically an array of Product IDs. If you only want to update a single product, just put it in an array.
The second parameter is an array that contains the attributes you want to update for the given products. For example if you wanted to update price to $10 and weight to 5, you would pass the following array:
array('price' => 10.00, 'weight' => 5)
Then finally, the third and final attribute is the store ID you want these updates to happen to. Most likely this number will either be 1 or 0.
I would play around with this function call and use this instead of writing and maintaining your own database queries.
General Update Query will be like:
UPDATE
catalog_product_entity_[backend_type] cpex
SET
cpex.value = ?
WHERE cpex.attribute_id = ?
AND cpex.entity_id = ?
In order to find the [backend_type] associated with the attribute:
SELECT
backend_type
FROM
eav_attribute
WHERE entity_type_id =
(SELECT
entity_type_id
FROM
eav_entity_type
WHERE entity_type_code = 'catalog_product')
AND attribute_id = ?

I'm trying to generate a new SharePoint list item directly using SQL server. What's stopping me is damn tp_DirName column. I have no ideas how to create this value.
Just for instance, I have selected all tasks from AllUserData, and there are possible values for the column: 'MySite/Lists/Task', 'Lists/Task' and even 'MySite/Lists/List2'.
MySite is the FullUrl value from Webs table. I can obtain it. But what about 'Lists/Task' and '/Lists/List2'? Where they are stored?
If try to avoid SQL context, I can formulate it the following way: what is the object, that has such attribute as '/Lists/List2'? Where can I set it up in GUI?
Just a FYI. It is VERY not supported to try and write directly to SharePoint's SQL Tables. You should really try and write something that utilizes the SharePoint Object Model. Writing to the SharePoint database directly mean Microsoft will not support the environment.
I've discovered, that [AllDocs] table, in contrast to its title, contains information about "directories", that can be used to generate tp_DirName. At least, I've found "List2" and "Task" entries in [AllDocs].[tp_Leaf] column.
So the solution looks like this -- concatenate the following 2 components to get tp_DirName:
[Webs].[FullUrl] for the web, containing list, containing item.
[AllDocs].[tp_Leaf] for the list, containing item.
Concatenate the following 2 components to get tp_Leaf for an item:
(Item count in the list) + 1
'_.000'
Regards,
Well, my previous answer was not very useful, though it had a key to the magic. Now I have a really useful one.
Whatever they said, M$ is very liberal to the MOSS DB hackers. At least they provide the following documents:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd304112(PROT.13).aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd358577(v=PROT.13).aspx
Read? Then, you know that all folders are listed in the [AllDocs] table with '1' in the 'Type' column.
Now, let's look at 'tp_RootFolder' column in AllLists. It looks like a folder id, doesn't it? So, just SELECT the single row from the [AllDocs], where Id = tp_RootFolder and Type = 1. Then, concatenate DirName + LeafName, and you will know, what the 'tp_DirName' value for a newly generated item in the list should be. That looks like a solid rock solution.
Now about tp_LeafName for the new items. Before, I wrote that the answer is (Item count in the list) + 1 + '_.000', that corresponds to the following query:
DECLARE #itemscount int;
SELECT #itemscount = COUNT(*) FROM [dbo].[AllUserData] WHERE [tp_ListId] = '...my list id...';
INSERT INTO [AllUserData] (tp_LeafName, ...) VALUES(CAST(#itemscount + 1 AS NVARCHAR(255)) + '_.000', ...)
Thus, I have to say I'm not sure that it works always. For items - yes, but for docs... I'll inquire into the question. Leave a comment if you want to read a report.
Hehe, there is a stored procedure named proc_AddListItem. I was almost right. MS people do the same, but instead of (count + 1) they use just... tp_ID :)
Anyway, now I know THE SINGLE RIGHT answer: I have to call proc_AddListItem.
UPDATE: Don't forget to present the data from the [AllUserData] table as a new item in [AllDocs] (just insert id and leafname, see how SP does it itself).
I use jqGrid to display data which is retrieved using NHibernate. jqGrid does paging for me, I just tell NHibernate to get "count" rows starting from "n".
Also, I would like to highlight specific record. For example, in list of employees I'd like a specific employee (id) to be shown and pre-selected in table.
The problem is that this employee may be on non-current page. E.g. I display 20 rows from 0, but "highlighted" employee is #25 and is on second page.
It is possible to pass initial page to jqGrid, so, if I somehow use NHibernate to find what page the "highlighted" employee is on, it will just navigate to that page and then I'll use .setSelection(id) method of jqGrid.
So, the problem is narrowed down to this one: given specific search query like the one below, how do I tell NHibernate to calculate the page where the "highlighted" employee is?
A sample query (simplified):
var query = Session.CreateCriteria<T>();
foreach (var sr in request.SearchFields)
query = query.Add(Expression.Like(sr.Key, "%" + sr.Value + "%"));
query.SetFirstResult((request.Page - 1) * request.Rows)
query.SetMaxResults(request.Rows)
Here, I need to alter (calculate) request.Page so that it points to the page where request.SelectedId is.
Also, one interesting thing is, if sort order is not defined, will I get the same results when I run the search query twice? I'd say that SQL Server may optimize query because order is not defined... in which case I'll only get predictable result if I pull ALL query data once, and then will programmatically in C# slice the specified portion of query results - so that no second query occur. But it will be much slower, of course.
Or, is there another way?
Pretty sure you'd have to figure out the page with another query. This would surely require you to define the column to order by. You'll need to get the order by and restriction working together to count the rows before that particular id. Once you have the number of rows before your id, you can figure what page you need to select and perform the usual paging query.
OK, so currently I do this:
var iquery = GetPagedCriteria<T>(request, true)
.SetProjection(Projections.Property("Id"));
var ids = iquery.List<Guid>();
var index = ids.IndexOf(new Guid(request.SelectedId));
if (index >= 0)
request.Page = index / request.Rows + 1;
and in jqGrid setup options
url: "${Url.Href<MyController>(c => c.JsonIndex(null))}?_SelectedId=${Id}",
// remove _SelectedId from url once loaded because we only need to find its page once
gridComplete: function() {
$("#grid").setGridParam({url: "${Url.Href<MyController>(c => c.JsonIndex(null))}"});
},
loadComplete: function() {
$("#grid").setSelection("${Id}");
}
That is, in request I lookup for index of id and set page if found (jqGrid even understands to display the appropriate page number in the pager because I return the page number to in in json data). In grid setup, I setup url to include the lookup id first, but after grid is loaded I remove it from url so that prev/next buttons work. However I always try to highlight the selected id in the grid.
And of course I always use sorting or the method won't work.
One problem still exists is that I pull all ids from db which is a bit of performance hit. If someone can tell how to find index of the id in the filtered/sorted query I'd accept the answer (since that's the real problem); if no then I'll accept my own answer ;-)
UPDATE: hm, if I sort by id initially I'll be able to use the technique like "SELECT COUNT(*) ... WHERE id < selectedid". This will eliminate the "pull ids" problem... but I'd like to sort by name initially, anyway.
UPDATE: after implemented, I've found a neat side-effect of this technique... when sorting, the active/selected item is preserved ;-) This works if _SelectedId is reset only when page is changed, not when grid is loaded.
UPDATE: here's sources that include the above technique: http://sprokhorenko.blogspot.com/2010/01/jqgrid-mvc-new-version-sources.html
