[Radiant] Multi-site Templates

2008-10-26 Thread Arik Jones
Multi-site is friggin wonderful. However, I have seen a persistent need
for site templates.

Here is how I imagine it'd work. I create a sort of boilerplate site
complete with intended pages, their parts and maybe some "get started"
content. Is there a way to save this data as a template for use in a new
site in multi-site? I assume not, so would anyone be interested in
building this out? I'm just a designer. :(

[Radiant] Any easy way to extract sites from multi-site installation?

2008-10-26 Thread Simon Rönnqvist

  Hi!

I've been doing a bit of testing I've found that an instance of Radiant 
+Rails easily eats up up to 80MB of memory for a while when using  
mod_rails, after a while one of the processes dies and about half of  
the memory usage is left hanging for quite some time. (I'm using  
Dreamhost so I don't think I can configure the timeout periods in any  
ways.) So this leaves me with the conclusion that the only sensible  
way to host small Radiant-sites is using the multi-site extension,  
even when using mod_rails (at least at Dreamhost where you can't  
shorten the timeout periods for things).


So because of this I might want to jam all of the small sites that  
I've made for my customers into a single multi-site installation of  
Radiant. But what do I do then if I for some reason later would have  
to move one site out of that installation? Do I just copy & paste all  
of the material? No that can't be the case, can it? :)


  cheers, Simon

Re: [Radiant] [ANN] Conditional Tags Extension

This is interesting.  I'll have to think about this.  Essentially what 
you're going for here is the removal of the attributes (something I 
agree with).  I bet my extension would be more comfortable if only you

I haven't thought this through, but what about separating the condition, and 
having it swallow the tag output?



  

  This page is highly accurate!

  Warning: This page contains factual errors.


I dunno if Radius can deal with "intermediary" tags like that; if not, you 
could do , but that might get ugly.  And I'm 
not sure if the whole "containing tag" concept is too painful for 
non-techies.  But ISTM that an "if" that can test any tag's output is mighty 
powerful...

I cherry-picked your commits instead of merging though, because i think the
tag_list_technorati stuff by ehaselwanter should go in a seperate branch.


Oops, you're right.. I was blindly merging everything.


Re your Weekly wacky suggestion; we coùld rename the extension (I'd prefer
radiant-metatags-extension), but that is not going to stop people from
referring to it as the tags extension, so I'm not too sure if that would
make googling for it easier?..


yeah, probably not, unless you also changed the [radius] tags themselves - 
e.g. r:metatags:each, r:metatags:cloud, etc.


I'm not sure if it's actually worth it; I was kinda thinking out loud.  I 
figured either someone would love the idea, or they'd hate it.  Or they'd 
think it's okay.

Re: [Radiant] Radiant/Radius/Extensions + HTML 4.01

2008-10-26 Thread Keith Bingman
As far as paperclipped is concerned, I think the only tag that  
actually generates HTML is the r:image tag and r:link. You could  
easily use the r:url and some page parts to make your own system using  
HTML 4.


In general though, I think this would be a nuisance and get in the way  
of nice clean tags.

Naturally it would default to the current XHTML code but it would  
offer a bit of flexibility. Note that I am talking only about the

What do you guys think?

Finally found the cause for this problem.
Change the file lib/dynamic_image.rb in the Dynamic Image extension:

#13 is
config = tag.attr
but should be
config = tag.attr.dup
