Re: Paginating in CMS without Delivery Server

2009-08-27 Thread ArryD

Hi Wayne

Ive achieved this using the JQuery pagination plugin and a list
element. Basically the idea is use the list and some script to write
out the div classes that the JQuery script will then process. Once the
script has written the out HTML the JQuery script takes over and
produces the pagination. The end result is nice as its Ajax based.

Cheers - Aaron

LiveServer CSS Content Type Problem

2009-09-03 Thread ArryD

Has anyone else encountered a problem with LiveServer returning CSS
files with the wrong content type? All requests for these files (which
are part of the LiveServer project) in our environment are currently
being returned with the content type 'text/html' instead of 'text/
css'. As we are using a strict doctype in the HTML this causes all
browsers (except IE) to not load the styles.

I have checked the configuration for both LiveServer and Tomcat and
they appear correctly configured for the CSS content type. If anyone
could help it would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Publishing asset folder to different target

I think you will have to setup an additional publication package for
your images. That package can then at least be pointed at the
different publishing target. Im not sure about making the package just
publish the asset manager though.

Re: JQuery in RedDOT

I just noticed in the general project settings the option 'Do not

its probably not a good idea, but maybe worth a try.

Re: Get Page ID with render tags?

2009-11-18 Thread ArryD
I guess another way of looking at this is automatically setting the ID
value to a standard field element using RQL before using your render
tag code. That way you can then use the value from the standard field
element within your render tags.

This might not be what your asking for but you can drag and drop

pages have to be linked within nav manager to begin with.

Re: CMS v10 experience?

2009-11-30 Thread ArryD
Hi Trev

Ive just finished my first V10 project, and I would definitely
recommend waiting for the 10.1 release. We didnt have a choice as the
client wanted staff to be trained on V10, even though they gave us V9
to do the initial development on...

Anyway there is a massive change to the user interface in V10, but im
guessing you're aware of this? It will have a big impact on the CMS
editors and authors and retraining might need to be done. There's a
lot of nice new stuff in there, and its basically a good release. But
we did have to change our template structure and CSS to get around a
problem with the way V10 handles CSS with the new interface.

I've noticed some weird behaviour with SmartTree when using it in
remote desktop, and its basically not usable, but this may not be a
consideration for you. There is the odd ASP.Net error thrown which
requires a page refresh to get the page to load.

So there have been a few problems and the CSS issue was a decent time
waster but it has been pretty stable otherwise. I would wait for 10.1
to address these sorts of things, and if it does it will be pretty
solid. I'll add more to this thread if I remember anything.

Re: CMS v10 experience?

2009-12-03 Thread ArryD
The project uses CSS based on templates, and we had to change our page
templates to include all the CSS within the page using a container,
for SmartEdit mode. The publish pages go back to using normal links.
We also had to modify some of the CSS styles, so things like the Body
tag had to use an ID rather than a class declaration.

All of that will have to be undone once this problem is fixed too...

Just to add the above also helped get around the very annoying problem
where opening the page in SmartTree would take you to the stylesheet

RedDot gets another new name

2010-07-07 Thread ArryD
Just when you were getting used to the snappy 'Open Text Web
Solutions' titles that rolls off the tongue, they have gone and
changed it again. As of 10.1 say hello to 'Open Text Web Site
Management'. So I guess Management Server is now called Open Text Web
Site Management, Management Server?

Re: Checking Filename of published file

2010-07-18 Thread ArryD
Hi Daniel

If you want to try RQL have a look at the listnames query. This is
from the RQL documentation:

"Use this RQL query to list all file names of existing pages in a
project.

You assign file names to determine the file name of a published page.
When no file name is assigned, the page is published using the page ID
or page GUID as a file name."

Query Example:


  

  


Server Response:

PAGE:   The PAGE element is repeated for every page with a file name
guid:   GUID of the page
headline:   Headline of the page
name:   File name of the page

Example Response:


  

...
  


So you would use the guid of the page you are checking to get the file
name of the page. Hope this helps.

Cheers - Aaron

Re: Checking Filename of published file

2010-07-19 Thread ArryD
Im not sure about others on here but I would look at project variants
to sort this. You could have a PHP variant for your templates and have
it default to publish with the php extension, and then use publication
packages deliver the correct pages as php files to the web server (or
train the editors to publish certain pages as php).

I had issues like this with SmartTree before - someone suggested
running the Fiddler web debugger tool when you use SmartTree, which
worked like a charm.

Re: Template Editor - quirks

2011-05-02 Thread ArryD
Hi Kim

Certainly do get this one, in v10 its well and truly alive. I
generally shut down the browser and start again when this starts
happening. Another classic is hitting ctrl+z and loses every change
you have done, which leads to my biggest gripe - why isnt there be a
save button? I usually make a few changes and click ok to make sure I
dont get too far ahead, re-open the template and continue on, in case
I make a mistake and risk losing all I have done.
