Re: [Radiant] setting up Gravitar for a site

Yeah I guess you would :) Thanks Jim, I have comments running fine installed 
from gem. I'm having problems now understanding how to get the gravatars picked 
up for any but the author of page.

Saw your site saturnflyer and would like to do something similar. Does your 
fork of comments have features that would make enabling for all commenters 
easier?

Thanks,
Daniel

How do I show the author of every comment on a page on a site, such as 
Saturnflyer.com does?

Thanks

[Radiant] setting up Gravitar for a site

2011-11-20 Thread Daniel O'Connell
Hello, 

I'm working on getting comments going for a site using the comments extension.
 
I notice the radius tag for gravitar  () is included as of 0.9.

How do I hook into this? Tried using tag on a page but got text without any 
image at all.

Is there some other config or install of a gem needed?

Thanks,

Daniel







[Radiant] Some thoughts after spending time away from Radiant

2011-11-13 Thread Daniel O'Connell
Hello, 

Here are some thoughts after spending time away from Radiant:

I have been running the 1.0 RC3 gem for a couple of weeks now on a production 
site. I'm very pleased with the simplicity and stability of the app.
Using gems has also been such a pleasure. When I last used Radiant (0.7.1) I 
had such a problem working with extensions, that I did not feel comfortable in 
a 
production environment or passing the project on to others. The inclusion 
"Assets" means that for the present project, I only need three extensions; Copy 
Move, Banner Rotator and
Mailer.

Radiant is so elegant and simple, yet therein lies the power that unlocks the 
creative mind. Very ingenious and a pleasure to work in. So many CMSes are so 
full of bloat and eye candy
as to be dizzying to the senses. I find this especially so for extended use. 
Radiant has taken a more minimalist approach that really shines especially for 
those 80% of sites and small teams. Word.
 
There is a bug (I just filed #290), where if a default page status is not first 
chosen, creating a new child page throws an application error. If this happens, 
simply go into
settings and choose a default page type e.g. draft and all is well again. 

Thanks again to all the developers for all of the hard work that has gone into 
the redesign of the interface and the effort to move their extension to gems. 
Sweet.

-Dan

Do you have RMagick gem or ImageMagick installed?
