Figured it out, the body the template was not being used as there is a special layout for the documentation page. I’ve removed the confusing code and added an explanatory comment here: https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Website/pull/290 > On Nov 24,

[Qgis-developer] QGIS docs

Hi, I’m trying to wrap my head around the state of documentation in QGIS. There is: https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Documentation and https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Website It seems like qgis/QGIS-Documentation corresponds to http://docs.qgis.org Whereas qgis/QGIS-Website corresponds to

Re: [Qgis-developer] Silently fail on error or say it loud?

Hi Alessandro, I'd suggest that failing silently is probably the worst situation for the user, and the code-guidelines should be updated. The user thinks they're getting what they want and instead their request is being ignored. These sorts of things usually lead to users wasting lots of time

Re: [Qgis-developer] Quick fixes and error communication for ftools

Thank you Marco, Are you confident that these are the only places that need changes, so does this mean that there is no more reason for a warning and we just need a quick point release? I applied the same to processing and did some changes to your fix to make it work also for union and clip.

[Qgis-developer] Silently fail on error or say it loud?

Hi, I didn't find much on coding guidelines and I'm not sure about what to do, it seems that this is treated differently in different parts of the code. An example: in the vector layer configuration dialog, the user can enter ad UI file for the custom form, if the specified file does not exist

Re: [Qgis-developer] Tool to pick up linear referencing measure from mouse

Hi Regis, I dont know if it's exactly what you are looking for but I had a same question. It was not for a plugin but for a standalone app. Form looks like screenshot joined I can send you ui and class behind the form. Lots of things are hard-coded (standalone app) It's a mash-up from first

Re: [Qgis-developer] Quick fixes and error communication for ftools

Hi all I had a detailed look with the debugger at what happens in the different versions. It turned out fTools does indeed handle geometry collections, but assumed a geometry collection has wkb type 'unknown' (which was true <= 2.8, but now geometry collections are not unknown anymore).
