Hi guys,
Following a long discussion with Dylan Jay (buried in another thread
on Devilstick terminology), I thought I'd conduct an informal poll.
==> As a customiser of Plone, or as someone wanting to build bespoke
components that extend Plone, what do you find most confusing?
I think this could fall into a few categories:
- Areas where there's insufficient/poor documentation, but once you
learn how to do something, it's clear how to proceed.
* XML formats in GenericSetup
* Need for a "recipes" category in plone.org/products
- Areas where there appears to be more than one approach, and it's
not clear which one to choose
- Areas where Plone doesn't appear to have a good way to do something
* Extending standard metadata, even for 3rd party content types. I.e.
I needed an "intended audience" (students, teachers or administrative)
additional meta for all content types of a high school portal and
didn't find a clean way to do this.
* Extending user properties out of the box, without the need to change
personalize_form
* No (visible) way to add a .dtml as resource or in a
resourceDirectory, we always need to use CMF skins tool for this.
Please keep replies as succinct and factual as possible. I'm really
not interested in a winge fest by people who've been frustrated in
the past. I'd much rather have constructive feedback on where the
pain is and, if possible, suggestions for how to improve things.
Cheers,
Martin
