Did you run the update after the migration?

Oh and be sure you checked out the proper branch or tag for 0.8.1.  I think
master is set up for 0.9.

[Radiant] Mailer not working with 0.8.1 passenger in production mode

2009-11-05 Thread Nate Turnage
I am having problems with the Aissac branch of the mailer extension, 0.8.1
branch, running with passenger on my production server. On my development
machine it works perfectly well (redirects to thank you page), but on the
production server it doesn't redirect. The database is exactly the same for
both environments. This is the output for each process:

[Radiant] Question about checking out branch of database_mailer

2009-10-26 Thread Nate Turnage
Hey all. I gotta quick one.

I have the database_mailer extension loaded as a submodule. I tried to
update it to origin/master then run the migration on it, but I am getting
errors. I ran git submodule init  git submodule update, then I saw that
there were branches for 0.7, 0.8, 0.9. I cannot remember how to check out a
remote branch. Can somebody refresh my memory on how to do that?

Running 0.8.1.


Thanks,

Alright. I have your version installed. I have to say, though, that it would
be really nice if the 20+ forks of mailer could all be wrangled into the
main version of mailer. I would love to have a mailer that worked with file
attachments [multiple attachments?], captured the info in database_mailer

network graph to figure out which extension(s) to use sometimes.

[Radiant] Is the RedCloth extensions known not to work with 0.8.1?

2009-10-15 Thread Nate Turnage
I am trying to style a list item in a footer snippet and it is not working,
so I decided to try loading the redcloth extension. And now I am getting an
error about an unitialized constant in the redcloth_extension. Is the
redcloth extension still useful for 0.8.1?

This is what I am trying to do:

*(class1) List Item One
*(class2) List Item Two
*(class3) List Item Three

But instead of rendering this:

ul
li class=class1List Item One/li
li class=class2List Item Two/li
li class=class3List Item Three/li
/ul

It renders this:

p
*(class1) List Item Onebr
*(class2) List Item Twobr
*(class3) List Item Three
/p

Styling list items this way works on the Redcloth website:
http://redcloth.org/try-redcloth/

Should I report this as a bug somewhere?

Git Confusion - thread detour from [Radiant] [ANN] Radiant 0.9.0 RC1

 Arthur Gunn said the following on 10/12/2009 08:24 AM:
  Perhaps, then, you can suggest a source of How To for GIT for

  There are no end of resources out there, my personal recommendation
  though:

  http://www-cs-students.stanford.edu/~blynn/gitmagic/http://www-cs-students.stanford.edu/%7Eblynn/gitmagic/

 Ah.  about 50 pages more than I wanted.
 Telling me all the things that as a non-developer I don't need to know
 about, and not answering fundamental questions like when do I have to
 worry about a 'module' or 'submodule' and how can I keep from geting
 an update from 0.9 when I've got a 0.6.9 based application or vice
 versa, and what if I'm using 0.9 and I try to ... clone? ... an
 extension that hasn't a 0.9 revision now but will have in the future?

 I'm sure I'm not the only person on this list who has questions like that.



I can assure you that you are not. I am also come from a 'non-developer'
background (wishing I had gotten that CS degree, though) and I blazed the
git trail myself back in January when I moved a project from 0.6.9 to 0.7.0.
There is a lot to learn, especially if you haven't worked with source
control before.

I tell ya what, I have been meaning to resurrect/rebuild my long dormant
blog and I'll make that the first topic. If you can give me a few days I'll
compile a short Newbies guide to Git and Radiant describing my whole
development process. It's something I promised to do a long time ago and
never had the time.

In the meantime, if you have any specific questions about the process,
please ask them. So far I see the git-related questions are:
- What are submodules? Which is really a question about how to install
extensions when your project is managed with git and is related to using
Ray.
- How can I make sure the extension I am using will work with my project
running v.X.X.X?

This isn't a git question that I intend to cover because I think it is in
the wiki already, but I'll answer it here:
- How can I install newer gem versions of Radiant but stay with 0.6.9 on
this project?

By default, Radiant will try and use the latest version of the gem that you
have installed. To use a specific version of Radiant, go into environment
file (config/environment.rb) and add this line under the require 'radius'
line (substitute your version for 0.8.1):
RADIANT_GEM_VERSION = '0.8.1'
Then save the file and restart the server.

What I am not certain on is how you *create* a Radiant project using a
specific version of the gem. If anyone could chime in here it would be
great. I didn't see it mentioned in the wiki either.

I hope that clears up some part of your confusion, Arthur. Like I said, I'll
get to the git 'splaining shortly. I know what it's like to have a developer
point you to a source of info chock-full of stuff that you don't understand
when you ask what seems like a simple question.

I guess it's not that difficult, but I could have sworn there was an easier

That of course doesn't work, but I thought there was something easy like

[Radiant] Using Templates extension, how do I change page status?

2009-01-27 Thread Nate Turnage
Sean,

You had mentioned that you were using an extension with the templates
extension that allowed you to change the status of the page outside of a
templated page? Can you tell me which extension that was? The site I am
building makes extensive use of the templates extension, and it is really
becoming a pain to use either the Copy/Move extension to move the page and
change the status and then move it back, or use the command line to change
the status.

The templates extension is really awesome except for that (and a few other
minor things).

 It was something internal to Redken.  Like the templates popup menu, it

 I've used templates in a project, we've had something else managing the

 patched templates to put the status selector back.  I'll check it out.



Thanks. I didn't mean to sound like I was looking the gift-horse in the
mouth. I'll take a look at github and see if I can find the extension with
the changes. In the meantime I found that I can create the page as a blank
page, set the status, then change it to whatever template I want to use.

trying to view the public facing part of a site I am working on. I have
never seen this before. Can anybody tell me why/how this is happening? Are
there any know issues between SNS and page_attachments?


Here's the error:
NoMethodError in SiteController#show_page

You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!
The error occurred while evaluating nil.public_filename

It works with other mime-types, but you have to specify them using the
Settings extension. You may also need to pare (sp?) down the number of
mime-types listed as well, because sometimes that field in settings is
truncated. It's really no big deal, just take out the mime-types you'll
never use (and there are a few) and replace them with the ones you need.

I have no problems using paperclipped, but I am using it with 0.6.9, though.

 This is due to the new RESTful routes in 0.7; paperclipped is trying to a

 Have a look at the last commit in my fork;

 I also made it skip mimetype validation altogether if you set

I have read, what I think to be, all the places where RSS feeds are

Has anybody done this before that can share some insight?

 I wholeheartedly agree. The method seems simple enough, but I'm not sure
 how to implement it myself.



 Hi Everyone (especially developers),

 I have a proposal that Radiant should include a default extension called
 'my_tags' or 'local' or something.

 [Rationale]
 There are quite a few suggestions on this list for doing something like the
 above 'truncate' tag.  All it requires is to throw in some simple
 tag-related code and access it from the Admin UI.  This is especially so for
 simple things that do not require complex logic in the background and do not
 need much else other than a few simple calculations.  Examples are:
 * the above truncate method
 * a tag that spits out textile for a URL that is linked to itself
 * a tag that uses Javascript for encoding the mail address
 * something that checks if a New icon should be displayed next to the
 title of an article depending on its age
 ...and so on.

 For good reason, a lot of these are simple things and are typically 'local'
 things that get customized for the specific installation and needs.

 I was wondering if it would be a good idea for Radiant to include an empty
 'local' extension into which such code could be dumped.  This would have the
 effect of:
 a) Having a common place where people can add their own tags (or tags taken
 from this list)
 b) Less tech-savvy developers being able to modify things without
 necessarily having to create an extension, a task that sounds very
 demanding and daunting.

 What do you think?

 I'm not certain about the 0.7RC script/extension problem, but if you're

 This will put the extension back onto a (hopefully) 0.6.9-compatible

 attachment_fu, and then run `rake db:migrate:extensions
 radiant:extensions:update_all` from the root of your project.

 Going forward, we should be adding support for selecting specific
 tags/forks/etc from the extension installer.  I'm going to reiterate my call
 for contributions to the extension registry.  It essentially hasn't changed
 since I deployed it in August.



Sean, I had to go back to 81124e93 to get page_attachments to work properly.
The very next commit broke the ability to destroy page_attachments. I think
it was the changes in the model page_attachment_associations.rb that
removed both the :delete_attachments and :destroy_attachment attribute
accessors. I tried a number of releases and 81124e93 was the first that
worked exactly as it was supposed to.

That my experience any way. I spent a lot of time trying to get this to work
and nothing more recent would.

No offense to it's author, but after fighting with page_attachments to get a

Paperclipped is much easier for managing assets, eveything is much more
organized, the content is searchable and you sort by media type. And on top
of it all you don't have to create a content page for storing all your
assets and links to images are just as simple as Adam manetioned:
r:assets:image title=Standard Check Mark /.

IMHO, page_attachments was good for it's time and filled a need for asset
management, but with paperclipped now available I won't be using it on any
future projects.

[Radiant] Using SnS - why use SnS file_system extension

2009-01-06 Thread Nate Turnage
I am using SnS to manage my css and js files and was wondering about the
benefits of using the
*radiant-sns_file_system-extensionhttp://github.com/nelstrom/radiant-sns_file_system-extension/tree.
*If using the extension speeds up accessing the css and js files and allows
for better caching, why drop them to the file system?

This is my scenario as it is:
Project is managed in git, and the application (radiant-generated and
extension-generated) css and js files are under version control. The extra
files, like sifr-config and jquery js files are in sns. I did this to keep
frequently updated files (by the user) out of source control. That way I
don't end up pulling old js of css files if I need to do a pull.

For other people building their apps and using git (or svn) how do you
manage your css and js files if not in a way similar to this?

adam.vandenho...@gmail.com wrote:

 You should also consider that if you're going to keep a version history
 that only one revision (and certainly not necessarily the current
 revision) should be published. This will allow you make a number of changes
 to a page (especially useful if you extend the page preview extension to
 work with versions) without affecting the current public version. This would
 also allow you to reduce the size of the version history by keeping all the
 incremental edits once this version is published collapse the version
 history down to the published version. This gives you a history that
 includes all the published versions and all the incremental changes since
 the last published version.

 The core development team may want to consider a modification to the core
 status properties which will (a) make it easier to do versioning as I've
 mentioned and (b) make things clearer. The change is to break the current
 status into 2 two fields. The first would be called status and would have
 values like draft, reviewed, published. The second field would be
 visibility and would have values like visible and invisible. Visible
 and the three status values map directly to the current status values, and
 published + invisible is the same as the current hidden status. This allows
 you separate the purpose of a page (RSS, CSS, etc) from its status. I think
 this simplifies the meaning of things since whether or not a page is
 publicly accessible is completely independent of whether or not that page
 appears in navigation. It will also make it easier, I think, to create a
 workflow extension.



As long as we're in pie-in-the-sky mode, this scheme sounds really good. As
someone who would not be able to help with any part of its implementation, I
say go for it. I will help to document it once I figure it out how it works,
though.

I just want to add that I found an answer for my question here just in case
anyone wants to know or needs to know.

If you add your extensions as git submodules and you want to use an earlier
commit of that extension, what you have to do is set up a run line in the
after_deploy area of your deploy.rb file. For instance, your project is
managed using git, you are using Radiant 0.6.9 and you want to use the
page_attachments extension. Well, the page_attachements extension broke
compatibility with 0.6.9 a few commits back, so you would have to put
something similar to this in your after_deploy task in your Capistrano
deployment recipe:

run cd
~/[name_of_your_application_on_server]/current/vendor/extensions/page_attachments;git
checkout f07ba4;cd ../../..;git add .

1. This will git checkout commit f07ba4, which is the last version of
page_attchments that works with Radiant 0.6.9.
2. cd to the root of your project.
3. git add the changed file (.gitmodules) to your project so that it will
use the new (old) version

When I started out with git on this project I was a git virgin so there
might be a better/easier way to do this, but after many rounds with tech
support at Rails Playground and many (many, many) google searches and the
git book from Pragmatic, this is what I used to make use of previous commits
of the page_attachments and copy_move extensions.

FYI, I used commit SHAs to reference the versions I used because the
extension creators, both of them, failed to tag their extensions for pre-0.7
versions of Radiant. Thanks, guys.

When things slow down for me, probably February, I will be contributing some
of my processes on this and some of the other workarounds I have made to
get projects working correctly using Radiant with available extensions. Some
of that will cover git info for noobs (like I was), the template extension,
subscriber lists and probably something on mailer. So I am in for the
Spring Continuum ongoing documentation project.

just want to ask before I start on something that isn't possible (or the
correct way to do things).


Thanks,

[Radiant] Another git question with regards to extensions

2008-12-30 Thread Nate Turnage
I am trying to get a handle on git and am having some difficulty
understanding how to manage my projects. My project was built outside of
version control where my extensions used were all git-cloned into my
project. Two of the extensions (page_attachments and copy_move) are using
previous revisions set up as local branches. The project directory was then
initialized as a local git repo and the remote.upload.url variable was set
up. I can 'git push upload master' to my online git server at Rails
Playground. It all seems to work properly, but if I try and git-clone my
project to test if it's working, none of the extensions have any files in
the vendor/extensions/extensionX directories.

In the past when I was using subversion to manage my projects a git-cloned
extension maintained its content. How should I be adding extensions to my
project so that travel with the project?

 I would suggest checking out an older revision of the extension into a new
 git branch. That way you can keep the up-to-date version (for 0.7) in its
 own branch, so that if you upgrade your site to 0.7 in the future, it is
 still there for you.

 Here are the steps (note that 'co' is short for 'checkout', and 'br' for
 'branch'. I have these set as aliases[1]):

# from the home directory of your radiant site:
$ git clone 
 git://github.com/pilu/radiant-copy-move.gitvendor/extensions/copy_move
$ cd vendor/extensions/copy_move
$ git log

 This gives you a list of all commits, with their commit messages and 'sha'
 values. Find the commit that you want to revert back to (i.e. the commit
 prior to the one that breaks in 0.6.7). e.g.:

commit b7d93af32fc8fbaa97611d0697ab33f606d2eef1
Author: Andrea Franz and...@gravityblast.com
Date:   Tue Dec 16 18:37:56 2008 +0100

the new radiant searches for regions under app/views/admin/pages
 instead of the old app/views/admin/page

commit 79ee39addf4adabcf28fe77a8cb9cbf2338feda8
Merge: a904fd3... 9f3dd2a...
Author: Andrea Franz and...@gravityblast.com
Date:   Tue Dec 16 18:33:43 2008 +0100

Merge branch 'master' of 
 git://github.com/avonderluft/radiant-copy-move
 into avonderluft/master

 If commit 'b7d93a' introduces changes that break in 0.6.7, you want to use
 the commit before it: '79ee39'. So check it out:

$ git co 79ee39
Note: moving to 79ee39 which isn't a local branch
If you want to create a new branch from this checkout, you may do so
(now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:
  git checkout -b new_branch_name
HEAD is now at 79ee39a... Merge branch 'master' of git://
 github.com/avonderluft/radiant-copy-move into avonderluft/master

 Now when you list the branches, you should see:

$ git br
* (no branch)
master

 When you checked out the old revision, you were prompted with instructions
 on how to turn it into a branch of its own. Something like:

$ git co -b pre-0.7

 Now, when you list branches:

$ git br
master
* pre-0.7

 You can switch between your branches using `git co branch-name`. e.g.

$ git co master
$ git br
* master
pre-0.7
$ git co pre-0.7
$ git br
master
* pre-0.7

 I hope that helps.

 Cheers,
 Drew

[Radiant] Jim Gay's blog extension - need install?

2008-12-27 Thread Nate Turnage
Does the SaturnFlyer blog extension need to be installed or migrated? There
isn't any info in the readme so I am assuming not. And when I try and
migrate it, I get this error uninitialized constant AuthorExtension.
Looking in the rake file leads me to believe that it doesn't, but I just
want to be sure.

Thanks for the description, Sean. This does clear it up for me. Something I
was also having trouble with is that the parts I was creating in my template
were defaulting to the Boolean type. That prevented me from getting any
kind of text field in the pages based on that template. Once I changed them
to plaintext, and read your description, then I grokked how it worked.

Another question, is there any way, outside of modifying the extension
itself, to get the plaintext boxes to be wider than about 100px? It's not a
huge problem because I edit form text with It's All Text and TextMate, but I
thought I would ask.

Great extension, now I know how it works. You might want to put that content

I set my pages to published in the db, but that will get awfully tedious in

Is there a tutorial or some sort of example of how the templates extension
works in practice? There is some info in the readme but there aren't any

What I thought it was is a way to have nested partials, but that doesn't

[Radiant] Problems after updating app from 0.6.7 = 0.6.9

2008-12-01 Thread Nate Turnage
I have an app that I tried to update from 0.6.7 to 0.6.9 and have run into a
couple of problems.

It started a bit like this. I ran rake radiant:update which seemed to
complete successfully. But when I tried to rake db:migrate I was greeted
with the error:
...
rake aborted!
undefined method `[]' for #Enumerable::Enumerator:0x2329874
...


So I searched around and saw what looked like a cure here (11th response):
http://groups.google.com/group/radiantcms-dev/browse_thread/thread/309b7516b2bb72f9?fwc=2
...
unless '1.9'.respond_to?(:force_encoding)
  String.class_eval do
begin
  remove_method :chars
rescue NameError
  # OK
end
  end
end
...


Then I ran rake db:migrate the migration died when it got to the sessions
table with this error:
...
== 16 AddSessions: migrating
==
-- create_table(:sessions)
rake aborted!
Mysql::Error: Table 'sessions' already exists: CREATE TABLE `sessions` (`id`
int(11) DEFAULT NULL auto_increment PRIMARY KEY, `session_id` varchar(255)
DEFAULT NULL, `data` text DEFAULT NULL, `updated_at` datetime DEFAULT NULL)
ENGINE=InnoDB

(See full trace by running task with --trace)
...


So I truncated the sessions table and the rake task completed successfully.
After that, script/server started the application with no problem. But I
discovered a new problem, my database had been wiped clean during the
process, so when I tried viewing the site at 127.0.0.1:3000 I was greeted
with a login screen.

I would really appreciate it if anybody who has run into similar problems
could describe what they did to get through all this.

My setup:

Ruby 1.8.7
Rails 2.2.2, 2.1.2   (tried both)
Radiant 0.6.9

Extensions:

Archive
Blog Tags
Comments
Copy Move
Markdown Filter
Page Attachments
Share Layouts
Subscriber Lists
Textile Filter
Wine Pairing Widget (custom extension)

On OSX 10.5, but the application originated in Ubuntu and was lovingly
transferred over to the mac. Everything worked perfectly when it was running
on radiant 0.6.7 in both OSX and Ubuntu.

[Radiant] Newsletter extension questions

2008-11-25 Thread Nate Turnage
Hey all,

I am about to add the newsletter extension to a project, but first I wanted
to ask a few questions about it.

1. Can it send an email confirmation back to the person that signed up?
2. Is it set up to force them to confirm before you can email to them?
3. Are there facilities for them to unsubscribe later on if they want to?

I think that's all for now.

The problem is that when I cap deploy the app to the production server and
use import_export to rake the db content into the production server the
class info for the css and js files is set as null which means that they
don't show up in the admin portion of the app. The effectively_updated_at

 I'm still looking around for a good forum to integrate with a Radiant site

 (a) RForum - that seems to be updated less frequently, but seems quite
 good!
 (b) Altered Beast - quoted as an exemplary Rails 2 application
 (c) El Dorado - Seems quite nice and has nice extra features

 As such, my main requirements are quite simple:
 (a) Multiple forums, discussions and messages
 (b) Good spam controls and support for moderating messages, users, etc.
 (c) User control and registration
 (d) Some integration with e-mail (like watching threads) - optional.
 (e) Support for multi-lingual messages (UI doesn't need to be)
 (f) Some support for Integration: modify style sheets, simple recent
 messages page, a simple user model, etc.

 Looking around in the non-Rails world, I find that PhpBB is popular but has
 a bad name when it comes to security and some people say that it is quite
 hard to integrate with/ change.  Another one I stumbled across is called
 Vanilla and it seems to have a good reputation for a clean UI and ease of
 integration and support for add-ons.  URL: http://getvanilla.com/

 Does anyone have any suggestions/ experience to share?  It is acceptable
 for the BBS to run on a separate sub-domain from the Radiant site.  There is
 no need for there to be very tight integration between the two.



The last time I had the forum connundrum, I just used phpbb, but I did
notice an extension in the registry last night call Beastly (
http://ext.radiantcms.org/extensions/22-beastly) for bringing Altered Beast
into a Radiant app. You could try that.

 Why would you want to use Passenger in your development environment? Isn't

On the one hand I want to start playing with it before I start depending on

 from the beginning.
 Did anyone else ever feel the need to do something like that?



I was thinking about this kind of thing the other day. I don't have a use
for it right now but it would be nice to have that available in the toolset.

[Radiant] Email/subscriber validation issues with subscriber_lists extension

2008-10-09 Thread Nate Turnage
Hey guys,

I am using the subscriber lists extension (thanks nelstrom, I love the CSV
export) for creating a contact us type of form. The problem is that when
somebody signs up with an email address that is already in the db, the
information gets overwritten with the newly submitted data. I am not exactly
sure how to add a check against the db to find out if an email address is
already there, and then return an error message that tells the user so. Can
anybody give me some pointers on how to add that into the form process
action?

Pastie with the action from the subscriber_list_page model:

Mucho, mucho garcias.

 Can somebody tell me what magical incantation I need to put in my

Sorry for the noise. I just used the tar archive and it worked.

It looks to me like I have set things up for data collection the way I want
it to work, but now I have an issue with validation. At the top of the form
in the subscribe tab on the newsletter page these tags are present:

r:newsletter:if_form_errors
  All fields are required
/r:newsletter:if_form_errors

Can anybody tell me where in the various files in the extension a form built
on that page runs it's validation checks? I have looked in every file,
except the tests, for some clue as to what would make that tag visible, but
I cannot find anything. There is no mention of it in the tags available for
the page.

Honestly, I cannot figure out which controller and model combo even
processes the form. I can figure out how the admin side of the extension
works (for the most part), including where the validation happens, but I
don't understand how the info is validated and processed on the client
facing side.

If anybody could give me some pointers on this, I promise that I will do my
best to write up some documentation on the summer reboot site about how this
extension works. In fact, I will also document my experience with the
subscriber_list (based on newsletter) and database_form extensions as well.
Adding the seemingly simple sign the guestbook type of functionality to a
Radiant site is a deceptively complex task and I will do my part to try and
reduce the pain in the process.

But first, I must conquer this newsletter extension. Any help is of course
greatly appreciated and I will light a candle in your honor. In fact, I will
light two. I am a desperate man. Obiwon Kinobi, you're my only hope...

 Thanks, Nate.  So, to clarify because I'm dense:
 1. I need to build an extension
 2. The archives/docs should show me how.

 Will I need to learn git to do this?


They should. You only really need to know git if you are manging your code
in that system. The only thing you really need to know about git for
installing extensions is that to add an extension to your project from git
you use the clone url from the project like so: git clone
http://address/of/project/name_of_extensionvendor/extensions/name_of_extension
 . That will clone the git repo into
your extension folder. All of the rest of the info on extensions is on the
radiant website. Again, specific questions will usually get answered here.



 As you may suspect, my end goal is to get either the content alone or
 the stylized content (not sure which) from Radiant and display it in
 Flex via AMF.  I intend to do my own styling in Flex, but I would like
 any HTML markup that the user may have entered.

 Does this seem feasible?


It sounds like you may want to expose your pages from radiant as xml (use
the page type XML). Then you can use whatever you want on the front end to
read and style that file accordingly. I don't know how that figures into
RubyAmf and what it does, though.

 Does anybody have any advice for how to go about this?

 I'm pretty new to Capistrano.  Is there a simple way to have Capistrano
 tar up the files locally, upload them to the production server, then
 replace the existing files with the uploaded files?

 The last part seems easy enough -- I get that I can use 'run' to run
 commands on the remote server.  I'm just not sure how to have it run
 commands locally and upload files.



I too am curious about this. It would be great to have an entire copy of the
production site on my laptop, but I have no idea which commands I would run
to to make that happen. It was my impression, before looking into
import_export and super_export, that those extensions did that kind of thing
(with or without Capistrano). I was mistaken, but I am still curious how
others are using those extensions on a daily basis to maintain some sort of
parity between their dev and production sites.

[Radiant] How can I refresh part of a page with Ajax?

2008-10-02 Thread Nate Turnage
This is the code I have in the body part of my /works/ page. I would like to
generate tabs for each one of the child pages, and show the body part of
the /works/print/ page in the works id by default. Then have each one of the
tabs refresh the works id with it's content.

The code below works except for one small problem: it wants to put the
entire html page into the works id. I only want the content part. In the
link I cannot use double quotes because it breaks the tag. I would like to
be able to specify r:content part=body / in the link where the r:url /
tag is. Can anybody help me out with the correct syntax here to refresh the
works id with the body part of the child pages?

...
div id=works_nav
  ul
r:children:each
  lia href=javascript:void loadTab( 'r:url /' )r:breadcrumb
//a/li
/r:children:each
  /ul
/div
div id=works
/div
script
function loadTab( tab ) {
  new Ajax.Updater( 'works', tab, { method: 'get' } );
}
loadTab( '/works/print/' );
/script
...


Thanks,

Just to veer a little on this, is there a best practices kind of way to use
content versioning with the import_export or super_export extensions?

I have been developing (to a point) on my local machine then putting the
whole app in subversion, cap deploy, rake production, truncate db tables,
then importing a mysql dump from my local machine into the production db.
From there I only do structural changes on my local machine, cap deploy,
then rake any new extensions I added.

Is there a better (read quicker) way to handle content versioning with a
Radiant app?

Re: [Radiant] Slightly OT question about joins

On Sat, Aug 16, 2008 at 8:56 AM, Sean Cribbs [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:

 With the relationship you have set up below, you can only have one food and
 one sauce associated with any wine.  This is why wine.foods will return
 nothing -- wine.food would work in the scenario you have set up.  I'm sure
 you'd agree that doesn't properly model the desired relationship.  Other
 than that, you are doing the mechanics of has_many :through correctly.  To
 get the relationships you want, I would set up a three-way join table.  That
 is, log each combination of wine, food and sauce as an individual record.
  It would look something like this:

 create_table :pairings do |t|
  t.integer :food_id
  t.integer :wine_id
  t.integer :sauce_id
 end

 Then you can choose any of the pairs of Food, Wine, and Sauce to create a
 combination, or fill in all three.  Your associations in the Wine class
 would look like this:

 has_many :pairings
 has_many :foods, :through = :pairings
 has_many :sauces, :through = :pairings

 Your other classes would look similar.  Does this help?


That's exactly what I needed to know Sean. Thanks. Driving around today it
hit me that I needed to set up the join model that way, I just didn't know
if I could have three models joined that way.


Thanks again,

If you are talking about IE6 then you have no place. And as for IE7 you need
to know that the current Internet Explorer team is completely new as
Microsoft disbanded the IE team when it looked like they won The Great
Browser War. There are no IE6 team members on the current IE team, so
things will only get better from here. I think once IE 8 is released into
the wild we (designers/developers) can finally start abandoning IE 6 in
earnest. Be thankful we don't need to support 5.5 any more.  ;^)

[Radiant] Page_attachment extension with Flash files?

2008-07-12 Thread Nate Turnage
Has anybody ever used the page attachment extension with Flash files? If so,
how do you place them on the page? I was able to upload the files no
problem, but when trying to use SWFobject the quotation marks used for the
r:attachment tag throw things out of whack. Anybody have any ideas?

Code calling Flash file:
notextile
object classid=clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-44455354 width=360
height=240
  param name=movie value=r:attachment name=gem_01.swf / /
  !--[if !IE]--
  object type=application/x-shockwave-flash data=r:attachment
name=gem_01.swf / width=360 height=240
  !--![endif]--
  pAlternative content/p
  !--[if !IE]--
  /object
  !--![endif]--
  /object
/notextile
