Sample DaDaBIK Database

I've finished a very simple DaDaBIK database example that can be downloaded and used to test out the waters of DaDaBIK. I've tried to incorporate all the different types of fields and have included some additional instruction for some fields where necessary.

To see the attachment and picture fields properly, be sure to grab the stuff in the "uploads" directory and put it in your own uploads directory on your own server.

The database was created with MySQL server version 3.23.58 and phpMyAdmin 2.5.7. If you are not using these versions and are experiencing some difficulty, please upgrade and try again before asking any questions. Database should be fine with newer versions of MySQL.

To make things even easier, I've also zipped up the DaDaBIK files (including the database sql and uploads files) that include the following hacks that appear to be most commonly requested in the forum:

-- Print this page button/link in header.php (see post http://www.dadabik.org/forum/read.php?f=1&i=2738&t=2738)

-- Variable column width settings in config.php (see post http://www.dadabik.org/forum/read.php?f=1&i=2166&t=2166#reply_2723)

-- Export to CSV hack that exports all fields/records in the database (see post http://www.dadabik.org/forum/read.php?f=1&i=2354&t=2354#reply_2422).

Here is where the goods are at:

Before anyone posts the question about having a v3.1 sample database available for download --- it will be available when version 3.1 Beta is released as 3.1 FINAL.

In the meantime, you can use the sample database in the link above with the upgrade.php function of 3.1 Beta to test things out.

Thanks for your patience!

3.1 Beta DaDaBIK Database Sample is ready!

I was going to wait until 3.1 was released as final, however, it seemed it would be more beneficial to everyone if I posted it now. So, the sample database for v3.1 Beta is finished and available at the same location as first post here (http://members.shaw.ca/debsweb/dadabik/). Unfortunately, in my rush to get the new sample loaded, I overwrote the v3.0 samples. I'll do some digging to see if I can recover them.

Two notes:
The print this page stuff is not included in code (see post link above on how to add that yourself).

The edit this record link on details pages has been added.

The variable column width and export to csv tweaks are still included.

I've managed to recover the 3.0 version of the sample database and zip files (thanks to Greg from the support forum for sending them to me).

Note that both the 3.0 and 3.1 Beta databases contain the tables necessary for a second install of DaDaBIK as discussed in the tutorial and documentation. All that is required is:

... copy all the DaDaBIK files into a new directory within your original DaDaBIK directory (for example /dadabik-dir/admin/)
... edit config.php in your new admin dir to reflect the correct relative and absolute paths -- HINT: if you change the uploads relative dir to '../uploads/' and leave the absolute one as is you will only need one uploads directory between the two instances.
... open the second instance admin.php in your browser and make whatever changes you need.
