ImageMagick is installed on heroku just add mini_magick or rmagick or
whatever thumbnailer you like to your .gems file and deploy as usual.


[Radiant] Generating thumbnails using paperclipped extension with S3 storage on Heroku

2010-08-05 Thread Wes Gamble

 All,

I am working on getting the paperclipped extension using S3 on my Heroku 
site.


I am confident that connecting to S3 will work fine (though I haven't 
tried it yet).


Don't I need ImageMagick or something similar for the thumbnail 
generation or other image manipulation?  How does one set that up on 
Heroku?  Or is that even an issue?


Many thanks,
Wes

To my knowledge, there is no tutorial on the TS extension -- but I  
could be persuaded to put together a screencast over the weekend. Be  
warned that I haven't touched this extension in some time so I can't

Seth,
Please keep this to 1 thread and reply to the other messages. This isn't a

Thanks for your feedback with my search troubles.

I am now attempting to use the thinking_sphinx extension that seems to
be all the rage.

I just wish I could find  a tutorial that included

1: submit form code
2: results page code


or maybe even a screencast?

so that i can literally cut and paste into radiant and then see what
it does and then customize from there.


Anyone know if there is a tutorial like this out there?

It's reporting that "keywords" is not a method on Page.
Do you have any extensions which alter the behavior of Page? Can you verify
that there is a "keywords" column in your pages table in the database?
Have you installed the page_fields extension (which might cause this, I
don't know)?

Next time, don't wait 2 days to ask for help.

Are there any errors in the server log?
Can you verify that the extension is in vendor/extensions/forms and not
vendor/extensions/radiant-forms-extension
And can you verify that it is not an empty directory?

Jim,

looks like there is a little bug here... the stylesheet is set to
draft after it is created. At least is was for me, which is probably
was Marshal is not getting it in his layout.

[Radiant] forms extensions installed, but no Forms tab appears

2010-08-05 Thread lmorris99
I've been struggling with this for 2 days now.

I reinstalled radiant (which works fine) and radiant-forms-extensions.
Then I ran
rake db:migrate
rake db:migrate:extensions
rake radiant:extensions:forms:migrate
  (which complained " Don't know how to build task
'radiant:extensions:forms:migrate')
rake radiant:extensions:forms:update
  (which complained "Don't know how to build task
'radiant:extensions:forms:update')

Stopped and started radiant; still no "Forms" tab appears.

I've just tried so many things, googled lots of error log messages,
geez.  Meta-problem: why the heck doesn't it JUST WORK?
(Sorry, just have to vent a little.)

So last resort before giving up.  Any advice please?
