GSoC'26 - Automated Workflow [Week Report #16]

By Weno Ndum Billy Hans on 2026-09-19 11:44 in Google Summer of Code Joomla Team

PRs #42 through #45 merged, and the pull request to Joomla itself is open as joomla/joomla-cms#48480. #44 was the largest, and it came out of deliberately testing the paths I was most confident about. Three things were wrong and none of them produced an error. Transitions stored as "from any stage" never matched an item, so they never fired and never appeared as upcoming, which is every transition in the default Basic Workflow. A filter containing one unfinished check was saved as no filter...

GSoC'26 - Automated Workflow [Week Report #15]

By Weno Ndum Billy Hans on 2026-09-12 11:41 in Google Summer of Code Joomla Team

Five PRs merged, #37, #38, #39 and #40 together, then #41 at the end of the week. Issues #2, #11, #20 and #24 closed. #39 settled the run-as user question, open since issue #2 in the first week. A rule executes its transition as a chosen user, so who that user is decides what the automation is allowed to do. My first approach compared the candidate's user groups against the editor's, on the theory that you should not be able to delegate to someone with more permission than you. That turned...

GSoC'26 - Automated Workflow [Week Report #14]

By Weno Ndum Billy Hans on 2026-09-05 11:37 in Google Summer of Code Joomla Team

PRs #31, #34 and #36 merged, closing issues #13 and #18. #31 finished the extension points for conditions. Two events let any extension add its own checks to the builder and supply their values, so the check list is not limited to what core knows about. To prove the events actually work rather than assume it, I wrote a small plugin, plg_workflow_remotecheck, that asks an external service a yes or no question and exposes the answer as a check. It also gives other developers the shape of an...

GSoC'26 - Automated Workflow [Week Report #13]

By Weno Ndum Billy Hans on 2026-08-31 14:03 in Google Summer of Code Joomla Team

PRs #29 and #30 merged, closing the live computation and batched lookups work, and with them issues #17 and #21. Most of the week went on review comments and on the scheduler task installation in PR #34. That one turned out to be more involved than expected: creating the task on a fresh install is plain SQL, but on an existing site the task's id and its position in the permissions tree depend on what that site already has, so the row has to be built...

GSoC'26 - Automated Workflow [Week Report #12]

By Weno Ndum Billy Hans on 2026-08-24 14:01 in Google Summer of Code Joomla Team

This week was about what happens when automation goes wrong. Added per item failure tracking to the item state table, so a rule that fails records why and when. That feeds three things: the automation log shows the reason, the failure email includes it, and the same reason is compared against the stored one so an administrator is not emailed every fifteen minutes about a fault they already know about. Also made sure an unreadable rule can never take down a page or a scheduler run. Previously...

GSoC'26 - Automated Workflow [Week Report #11]

By Weno Ndum Billy Hans on 2026-08-17 14:00 in Google Summer of Code Joomla Team

Worked on making the condition system extensible, opened as PR #31. Until now the checks an administrator could use were hardcoded for articles. This week I added two core events so any extension can register its own condition fields and resolve its own values. Joomla's own checks then moved out of a plugin and into com_workflow itself, since they are not optional, and a sample plugin demonstrates how a third party would add theirs. Also added the ability for a check to take a typed...

GSoC'26 - Automated Workflow [Week Report #10]

By Weno Ndum Billy Hans on 2026-08-10 13:57 in Google Summer of Code Joomla Team

A good week for merges. PR #26, the nested condition builder, and PR #28, upcoming transitions, both went in, closing six issues between them. With those merged I moved to the execution model. Until now the system stored a computed deadline for each item, which my mentors had questioned: it means a value that can go stale, and it needs recomputing whenever anything it depends on changes. I replaced it with computing due-ness live at run time, opened as PR #29. That removed a...

GSoC'26 – Multi-category Support for Joomla [Week Report #11]

By Reda Mohamed on 2026-08-10 12:03 in Google Summer of Code Joomla Team

What I have done Renamed the term "secondary categories" to "additional categories" everywhere in the code. Updated the frontend UI. Now, all categories are shown together under one simple label: "Categories:...". Changed settings so "additional categories" options now depend on the "main category" settings to avoid conflicts. Updated the Articles module to show both the main category and additional categories, but only if the user has permission to see them. It also...
