This should give us proper session support and make login/logout/reset password flow easier.

The ETCBC database contains all verb forms in the Hebrew bible with parsing information. It should be relatively straightforward to extract this and put it in our database; provided of course the copyright allows this.

On Ubuntu 20.04 MySQL server is version 8. This causes an error from vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Database/Connectors/MySQLConnector.php:

                $connection->prepare("set session sql_mode='ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY,STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,NO_ZERO_IN_DATE,NO_ZERO_DATE,ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION'")->execute();

I fixed this on the live version by removing NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER:

                $connection->prepare("set session sql_mode='ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY,STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,NO_ZERO_IN_DATE,NO_ZERO_DATE,ERROR_FOR_DIVISION_BY_ZERO,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION'")->execute();

This should also be fixed in the version on GitHub by updating to a more recent Laravel version.

So I've been thinking of an idea for a new feature for ParseTrainer which would make it a bit more convenient & easier to use. Essentially, when you change the settings such as the following:

It would be great if that would automatically save using something like LocalStorage or cookies so that when the page is refreshed, it won't remove the user's settings. I'm not entirely sure if that would be possible or how it would be done using PHP - but I think if it was implemented it would be very helpful.

Background

I access https://parse.hebrewtools.org/ through my iPhone, and specifically through the Safari web browser.
I use the trainer-input box rather than the trainer-input-fancy section, primarily because I can type faster with the on-screen keyboard.

Problem

iOS' autocorrect functionality mangles a few character patterns that the input box expects (e.g. ms becomes Ms, ho sometimes becomes hi), in such a way that ParseTrainer can't parse the input.

A user* has suggested the following improvement:

The ability to select to practise identifying only stems, or only tenses, or tenses and stems but without person, gender and number. This would help our students to focus on their specific areas for improvement.

This would have to be customizable (i.e., the user should be able to select the features to train on).

Sorry but this is off topic and is perhaps not the right place or channel to ask this question. If so please ignore and close this and accept my apologies

This application allows the learner to practice parsing a verb which is great. I was wondering if it was possible (reasonable) to have an application which does the parsing for you. The scenario is that the learner has a Hebrew word which they are a) not sure of or b) need to verify that they have understood correctly what is happening. If they could enter the word and be given a breakdown of what grammatically would be going on. The root radicals, the prefixes and suffixes etc.

The best example I can give are those websites that parse regex https://regexr.com/

I am very much a beginner at Hebrew and I don't know if this sort of parsing is too complicated/difficult for a web application to do. Given your experience with this application, are you in a position to tell me if it is really hard or theoretically possible? I feel cheeking for asking the question 😊

Thanks for your time reading this.
