PHPRunner General questions

Not sure where to post bugs, Maybe we should start a link for beta test reports.
1, Anyways, Reports show summaries and record totals on visual editor page but do not show up in built project.
2, Not sure if it was intended but the "Connect to MySql" quick link not present in the new menu system at the bottom. Nice option you added to the program, really speeds things up.
Otherwise..Nice work so far!

Vince,
please post project that illustrates issue 1 to Demo Account and send the URL to our support team.
In regards to the second issue - three is nowhere to jump until you connected to database.

Hi,

I will send a link to support for issue one in the A.M. for the report pages...
As far as the connect to database issue, I'm not sure about the majority of the PHPRunner users out there but I do all of my building and testing on my local box -much quicker-(including MySQL) and will frequently build a project, check out the results on my local server, then when satisfied with the results will go back to the "select database page" and connect to my (inspirunner) server database and rebuild my project (which is now connected to my server database). THEN quick upload the project to my inspirunner server. This way, all the DB connection strings are already done in PHPRunner with no chances for error on my part.
I guess its not too much of a hassle to just select the "Tables" link and then hit the "<--" button to get to the database connection page.

I just figured that since you took the time to make that great new menu, you might want all the options on it.
Thanks

Vince is right. I use the same method. Luckily the back button does the job.

Vince, Stephan,
we removed "Connection" button from the menu to prevent users from changing the connection accidentally.
Btw, if you setup your local MySQL the same way as remote one you don't need to switch connection before building a production version.

You are right about setting up the databases the same. It just so happens that I find myself going to that page often even when getting information for my back-ups or even testing my apps with databases that have the same tables but different test data in them. Like I said, its not really that big of a deal to have a link as we can use the back button to access the DB page. Thanks for explaining your intentions..
