Re: [Radiant] Drop down menus?
Well, only css and a little javascript. My query was about finding the most Radiant way to do it. Sean's solution got me through the list generating part, now it's up to me for the styling. I am aware of the various 'suckerfish' implementations. What I am not familiar with is the radius way to auto-generate the site structure. Nate, Sean's pointer on the if_self and if_self_or_ancestor tags is key. I have built site map snippets as well as dynamic navigation with these. The other possible trick is you can use clever 'opt out' page parts that can remove unwanted pages from this menu. Such as : r:unless_content part=no-nav lir:link /r:if_ancestor_or_self... /r:unless_content In this example any page with a no-nav page part will be ignored. You can add these at the top level for things that you don't want to appear in your menu but still be visible in other spaces. You can then make a sub-nav snippet that continues to refer to itself so that you can nest down many levels. Hopefully that gives you enough to go on.

Re: [Radiant] gallery extension
It is actually pretty different than attachment_fu. It doesn't require it's own model, just a few columns. It is a lot lighter weight. I actually like attachment_fu a lot, but it is a bit slow and it requires either RMagick, Mini_magick or Image Science, all of which are problematic. So I thought I would give it a try. So far, it seems nice, but I haven't really tried it in production yet.

[Radiant] [ANN] Styles 'n Scripts Extension v0.3 Release
Based on some feedback that I've gotten from the list (thanks all!), I've added some new functionality and improved the existing. NEW FEATURES 1. Added r:stylesheet and r:javascript tags for use in pages. Based on the attributes, these tags will render: * The url to a css or js file * The content of a css or js file * The content of a css or js file wrapped in the appropriate style or script html tags. 2. Added r:stylesheet and r:javascript tags for use in your stylesheets or javascripts -- and here's were it gets interesting -- so that you can do asset packaging (reference all of your javascripts or stylesheets in one main file to reduce server requests and speed page load time). What's really cool here is that the stylesheets and javascripts now track their own dependencies so your files all report an accurate LAST-MODIFIED date/time. This keeps your server from having to re-serve your css and js files unless their content has truly changed. Fast page loads for visitors, reduced bandwidth and server requirements for you! WHY USE STYLES 'N SCRIPTS John originally suggested this extension so that should be good enough for you. But in case you're still wondering, this extension offers: * Administrator or Developer permissions for accessing CSS or JS files * Better caching for these files (their cache isn't flushed every 5 minutes like pages but, instead only when updates occur). So your user's browser cache can go to work -- speeding page loads and minimizing server hits. * Separation of concerns - lets extensions that work with pages not get tripped up by CSS and JS files (examples include keyword searches that don't find text in your stylesheets, adding meta keyword or descriptions to pages but not stylesheets, using WYSIWYG or WYSIWYM editors like TinyMCE or FCKEditor to edit your pages but not your css or js files. This also opens the door to extensions aimed at working just with css or js files (look for css js minification coming soon). * Declutter the Pages tree view. Now it only needs to show the content - not the assets.

Re: [Radiant] Re: Re: [Radiant-Dev] [ANN] Styles 'n Scripts Extension
Thanks for the feedback Steven. I'm really interested in making this a usable extension for all. I always used pages for my js and css files too and, like you, never had more than a handful of each -- it wasn't much of a bother to do. So, when John first mentioned the idea to me I really only saw one or two valid reasons for such an extension (for instance, I found it difficult to explain to users why they had to create a blank layout for a stylesheet just to set the content-type). Now that I've been working on it, I see *many* good reasons to go this route (my current favorite is the server and browser caching benefits -- I *love* the idea of not having to expire and reserve all stylesheets and javascripts every 5 minutes). As to the multiple tabs, yeah, I'm with you. Originally I think John envisioned something like an Assets tab where CSS, JS and image files could all reside but Radiant hasn't settled on an image asset approach just yet. And without images, what do you call the tab -- Text Assets? CSS JS? Assets-That-Don't-Happen-To-Include-Images? Actually, my original mock-up for this extension had one tab (called Files) but I still kind of choked on that vague name. Anyway, for now, John just suggested keeping two tabs and waiting to see how things progressed. In the interest of minimizing tab space, I did choose to name them CSS and JS instead of Stylesheets and Javascripts. Plus, your standard-level users never see the tabs anyway so it looks clean to them. I certainly welcome any ideas/suggestions here.

Re: [Radiant] Re: Re: [Radiant-Dev] [ANN] Styles 'n Scripts Extension
I must admit that assets that don't happen to include images is a bit long. I kind of like text assets. That kind of opens it up to include other types of files that people may want to put there like .xml or maybe even a .as file. One thing that would be nice about putting them together is that you could then make use of a file type combo box. That would fill out the page a bit and give a person a little more to do. Also those lovely icons would have a chance to help you sort out your file types. -Steven On May 27, 2008, at 8:50 PM, Chris Parrish wrote: Thanks for the feedback Steven.

Actually, my original mock-up for this extension had one tab (called Files) but I still kind of choked on that vague name. Anyway, for now, John just suggested keeping two tabs and waiting to see how things progressed. In the interest of minimizing tab space, I did choose to name them CSS and JS instead of Stylesheets and Javascripts. Plus, your standard-level users never see the tabs anyway so it looks clean to them. I certainly welcome any ideas/suggestions here. Its a fairly straightforward design but nothing's set in stone. -Chris Steven Southard wrote: I just tried out your extension. Nice idea. I've always liked how the css file was exposed under pages but I really hadn't thought of it having it's own section either. Also, I've always wondered where to put my js files. I usually just tucked them in the javascript folder and referenced them. This gives them a proper place. I mostly only use one stylesheet per website so it seems a bit overkill. Not to be stingy with my tabs, but I think I'd like it better if the css and js pages were both under one tab. I'm looking forward to seeing what becomes of this extension.

For instance: r:stylesheet name=my_stylesheet / produces: your stylesheet content Or, if you want to be more fancy, try: r:stylesheet name=my_stylesheet as=inline / and get: style type=text/css !-- your stylesheet content -- /style The same works with the r:javascript tag. -Chris ___ Radiant mailing list Post: Radiant@radiantcms.org Search: http://radiantcms.org/mailing-list/search/ Site: http://lists.radiantcms.org/mailman/listinfo/radiant ___ Radiant mailing list Post: Radiant@radiantcms.org Search: http://radiantcms.org/mailing-list/search/ Site: http://lists.radiantcms.org/mailman/listinfo/radiant ___ Radiant mailing list Post: Radiant@radiantcms.org Search: http://radiantcms.org/mailing-list/search/ Site: http://lists.radiantcms.org/mailman/listinfo/radiant ___ Radiant mailing list Post: Radiant@radiantcms.org Search: http://radiantcms.org/mailing-list/search/ Site: http://lists.radiantcms.org/mailman/listinfo/radiant
[Radiant] ajax call for save and continue editing and style changes
I've been using this interface a lot lately and one thing that would make it much better for me is not having the page refresh when I hit save and continue editing. This is especially true when I'm editing a long CSS file, I hate to image how much time I wasted looking for the place I was just editing. A couple of other default style changes I think would help are to make the text area height about 600px also a bit skinnier and over to the right so I can grab the side easier and get to the save changes button. Having to scroll down the page like that to get to the save button is kind of a pain as well. I think the save button would be more useable if it were in that blank space to the right above the text area.

[Radiant] admin page titles
I've also noticed that all the admin pages have the same title so when I'm working on multiple pages in tabs I can never tell which is which. If the admin pages were titled what they were it would make it easier to keep track of them.
