We now need to fiddle in the templates to remove the print icon. In many cases, a print option is not useful.

Need both a tiki_p style permission and a feature_print style feature for this. Need to document the actual names we used, too.

One tiki-wide setting to deactivate all printable pages all links to these pages (with the little printer icon).

This will also be useful for http://mobile.tikiwiki.org/ Let's try to do before 1.9.1

obs: waiting for cvs to unlock to commit

This started when I discovered that when trying to register with an address using the "GMail-Format" like
normal.mail+something@gmail.com and it will fail although the address is valid. I have made a quick fix to allow '+' in the name part of the email address, but obviously more can be done to make this more RFC compliant. Will have to double check that email actually sends, of course.

Could someone please make the fields this tracker uses available to the community, please? (easily done, since there's an export/import feature!)

I'm trying to create a support web site, so obviously need much the same thing as this site. Trackers are quite a learning curve, so a couple of good examples would be really useful!

If someone does this, I'll add an export of the fields I end up using and make them available too (I've got a couple of other tracker apps up my sleeve too).

Cheers!

Too many people are having issues:

Please see: ((tw:Viral Tiki))

When you check both:

Tracker items allow attachments?
and display attachments in listing?

Then the dl-column (I guess it counts downloads) is being shown by default.

When editing a tracker item, there should be an easy possibility to select, which tracker is a duplicate of this item.

Many people use the wiki without structures. It should be optional, like the rest.

A small collection of related issues with maketoc:

^{maketoc} -=Maketoc issues=-^
!!! ''TOC and heading type sizes''
* This is an issue that seems to crop up repeatedly on tw.o. Users would like to be able to easily control type size of both the TOC itself and headings created by maketoc. Type size for both seems to be theme-dependent now, with many themes using very large type size for headings, some with a type size for TOC entries that is too small for users with only slight vision loss. It would be a Good Thing if TOC and heading type sizes could easily be set globally, per object type, and by category, with switches available to vary those settings on a per page or object basis.
!!! TOC and heading character attributes
* It would help reduce inconsisistencies in TOC and heading character attributes (as in this tracker item) if the attributes could be set globally, per object type, and by category, with TOC switches available to vary those settings on a per page or object basis. However, the ability to manipulate emphasis within a single TOC/heading entry should be retained, so that for example, a single word could be italicized in a TOC/heading entry.
!!! Vertical linespacing between headings and text
* Under some themes, vertical linespacing between text and headings is too much for taste, or as in the theme affecting this tracker item, too small for taste. This is another setting that should be unleashed from the themes and made easily selectable by a Tiki admin through global, category, and object type settings, with switches for per page or object variation.
!!! ''Backlinks from headings.''
* Links from the TOC to headings are now 1-way. For larger pages, maketoc would be much more user friendly for those viewing pages if clicking on a heading would take you back to the TOC.
!!! Outline numbering.
* TOC formatting and heading formatting would be friendlier to the eye if both could be assigned numbering schemes such as 1., 1.1, 1.1.1, 1.2 or I., A., 1., a., II, etc. Settings might be implemented as described for ''TOC and heading formatting.'' If developed, this might be implemented for lists as well.
!!! Headings indentation.
* Many power users in the word processing and outliners worlds expect headings to inherit the indentations of the corresponding TOC entry. This would help break up the visual clutter that happens when many headings are close together vertically as a result of short text elements separating them, as in this tracker item (but it is far worse when there are subtopics and corresponding subheadings). Settings might be implemented as described for ''TOC and heading formatting.''
!!! Text indentation
* Many people used to word processors' outlining or stand-alone outliners expect text to be left-indented one tab more than its heading. Relevant settings might be implemented as described for ''TOC and heading formatting.''
!!! Associated features
* Display current settings in editor, change current settings from editor. Make changes to settings made from the editor apply only to the object being edited, so that users do not accidentally apply per object settings to other objects. Admins should have option to disable deviations from admin-set settings.
* maketoc is commonly used in conjunction with list features. Any changes to maketoc should not unintentionally impact the list feature and ''vice versa.''
* Need to ensure that all enhancements suggested render correctly when Tiki objects are exported as PDF.
!!! Future options
* Future options might be kept open by maintaining compatability between Tiki objects containing maketoc elements and various formats used by outliners such as OPML, XOXO, OML, or OpenDocument XML. (See corresponding Wikipedia articles.) E.g., it might be feasible at some point to directly export an outline file to Tiki where it is imported as a wiki or blog page and ''vice versa.''

It's fine to set a post as an "Announcement" However, it does NOT go to the top like "Sticky" but in both cases making it "Locked" replaces both "Announcement" and "Sticky".

XML files are cool for data interchange.

For example, you can create an xml file to feed a Flash animation. However, you still need to update that XML file via FTP. What if you could edit a wiki page (with permissions, history, etc) and have the Flash animation get the data from it as if it was xml?

Or maybe a button on a wiki page "save to .xml", which would save on the filesystem WikiPageName.xml? (where the Flash would know to look for it)

* {wish id=3103}

During the last few weeks before launch of 1.9.8, many fixes were introduced. They need to all be evaluated and ported to 1.10



Needed in 1.10 script: change password -> 999 days and 1999 days, needs to become -1 (and a warning in tpl not to use these values) 999 become 1000 and 1999 becomes 2000 if you try.

Making tiki-admin_modules.php more intuitive (last few commits):
http://tikiwiki.cvs.sourceforge.net/tikiwiki/tiki/templates/tiki-admin_modules.tpl?view=log&pathrev=BRANCH-1-9

Blog post edit page (tiki-blog_post.php) has a "Mark entry as private" check box, to restrict viewing to the author. But it doesn't work; any user can read the post.



Needs to be fixed or the option removed from tiki-blog_post.php in time for 1.10.0

When switching a "wiki" format page to the wysiwyg editor, wiki markup not converted into HTML.
Likewise switching an HTML page to the normal editor, HTML markup not converted to wiki.

2008-05-27 00:46:33 Norrin_Rrr mmh
2008-05-27 00:45:57 prozaq you could probably modify that
2008-05-27 00:45:39 prozaq that displays all categories
2008-05-27 00:45:32 prozaq Norrin_Rrr: in 1.10 there is a module called "categories"
2008-05-27 00:41:25 Norrin_Rrr will try it
2008-05-27 00:41:16 Norrin_Rrr the example in the documentation says its for features not sections that s weird
2008-05-27 00:40:51 prozaq oh - yes I think so, but Ive never tried it
2008-05-27 00:40:34 prozaq beg your pardon?
2008-05-27 00:39:45 Norrin_Rrr the section parameter in the menu its to set wich section (wiki/cms/forums) will display the menu ?
2008-05-27 00:38:54 Norrin_Rrr that should be doable
2008-05-27 00:38:19 prozaq so you should be able to copy some of the code from the tiki-browse_categories pages
2008-05-27 00:34:38 Norrin_Rrr yes
2008-05-27 00:34:16 prozaq but isnät that when you are creating a module from scratch?
2008-05-27 00:34:07 Norrin_Rrr i am not sure but there seems a possibility for hacking ?
2008-05-27 00:33:44 Norrin_Rrr "So if you know about Smarty template editing you can use any Smarty tag in your user modules."
2008-05-27 00:33:05 Norrin_Rrr ah okay i am at the module documentation, and its seems there are some conditionals with TW1.10 for modules but unfortunatly none for specific category
2008-05-27 00:32:56 *** franck has left #tikiwikin
2008-05-27 00:29:43 *** kiilo_ has quit IRCn
2008-05-27 00:28:34 Suprano even more if you paste in in a formular :D
2008-05-27 00:28:15 Suprano hmmm copying 4mb text slows down the pc
2008-05-27 00:28:10 Norrin_Rrr and display a menu that gather the various item of this category
2008-05-27 00:27:59 prozaq marclaporte: earlier I posted a bug to the tracker item Bugs & Wish list on dev.tikiwiki.org but how do I post to the "All Bugs" section or the "Release 110 taged bugs" ? section
2008-05-27 00:27:38 Norrin_Rrr yes
2008-05-27 00:27:30 marclaporte the goal would be to show a certain module only if current item (page, etc) is in category X ?
2008-05-27 00:26:07 prozaq eek...
2008-05-27 00:25:45 Norrin_Rrr its seems it works for feature enabled on the site but not for category (?)
2008-05-27 00:25:16 Norrin_Rrr yep i have the doc about the menu under my nose but i don't understand the section parameter
2008-05-27 00:24:39 marclaporte hi prozaq
2008-05-27 00:24:24 prozaq marclaporte: hi
2008-05-27 00:24:19 prozaq but Iäm not sure a specific category would fall under that
2008-05-27 00:23:57 prozaq it seems that you can tell a module which "section" it should appear in
2008-05-27 00:22:37 Norrin_Rrr for now 1.9.9 but 1.10 soon i hope :)
2008-05-27 00:21:20 *** marclaporte has joined #tikiwikin
2008-05-27 00:20:45 prozaq which version are you using norrin?
2008-05-27 00:18:38 Norrin_Rrr i am not sure, a module with a menu would be nice
2008-05-27 00:18:08 prozaq a menu item or a module with menus?
2008-05-27 00:17:29 Norrin_Rrr and hello everybody ;)
2008-05-27 00:16:39 Norrin_Rrr Is it possible to show a menu only when a user reach an item belonging to a given category ?
2008-05-27 00:15:24 *** Norrin_Rrr has joined #tikiwikin







Sylvie has recently added some useful code in BRANCH-1-10 so we can use categories as conditions in templates (.tpl)

[http://dev.tikiwiki.org/Hello+World#To_do_something_specific_in_a_template_ex_tiki_tpl_conditional_to_the_current_item_being_in_a_category_Ex_different_header_picture_|related info in Hello World]

I have been trying all weekend to get a menu item to be visible and active for an anonymous user.
The uri is elkstudy.com.
There are four items in the menu. Here is the .csv:
"optionId","type","name","url","position","section","perm","groupname","userlevel","remove"
203,"o","Home","tiki-index.php",2,"","","Anonymous",0,"n"
205,"s","About EMG","",3,"","","Anonymous",0,"n"
208,"o","Introduction","tiki-index.php?page=Introduction",4,"","","Anonymous",0,"n"
207,"o","Purpose","tiki-index.php?page=emgPurpose",5,"","","Anonymous",0,"n"
204,"s","FAQs","tiki-list_faqs.php",8,"feature_faqs","tiki_p_view_faqs, tiki_p_suggest_faq,tiki_p_view","Anonymous",0,"n"
206,"s","News","tiki-view_articles.php",10,"feature_articles","tiki_p_read_article, tiki_p_topic_read","Anonymous",0,"n"

I made FAQs work only by pointing to a Wiki page, which is OK.
But I cannot get the item to be visible either for anonymous or registered users (only admin) so that anyone can get to the articles section, which I want to be a news section.
I have looked into a theme problem (same issue with any of a dozen themes) I'm using a variant of absE.
I have tried plain menus {menu id=45} and the three variations on the PHPLayers (fixed, etc.)
I have tried a simple flat arrangement (all section0).
I have tried attaching a public category to all menu items.
I have spend this weekend chasing around for a solution but I haven't found one.
I would prefer to link to the FAQs module instead of building Wiki pages, but I couldn't get that to work either.
Thanks

I use Tikiwiki v2.2

I use the standard menu id=42 for admin menu on the right pane on my website but the menus will not expand so I am able to see the menuitems.

I get the following javascript error in my browser:

Error: document.getElementsByName("icn" + foo)[0] is undefined
Source File: http://www.mydomain.com/lib/tiki-js.js
Line: 520

Featured link (tiki-admin_links.php) offers three types of links (framed, new window, replace).

This functionality would be most welcome with our menu system (tiki-admin_menus.php) when adding links.

As of now, you need to full admin to edit the menus. Often, we would like to delegate this to somewhere at the editor level.

Since some weeks ago, afaik (April 2008, or so), menus and menu options cannot be seen for anonymous on several sites that I admin, including edu.tikiwiki.org, if you select some themes. Example: moreneat.css

On others, like http://moviments.net/ilp (using nornia.css), the menu on a module assigned to anonymous and registered, was shown when you logged in. Right now I've just assigned thatmodule to admins only, and used menupage module, which works fine. But I can re-set the previous config. is somebody wants to reproduce the missworking.

When defining a field in a mirrored Tracker, the Description of the field is not stored. This was in 2.0, and I'm told on IRC that mirrored trackers are not supported. But mirroring is an option in Admin>Trackers.

The value of calculated fields is not shown in the list of entries in a mirrored Tracker. A calculated field using #3+#5 had the value displayed when looking at the individual item, but the value was empty when viewing the list of all items in the Tracker.

After upgrading from 1.9.11 to 2.0 an error occurs with a missing field (email_confirm) when trying to add a new user as summarised at the end of this post. This seems to be repeatable across several sites that I have upgraded from 1.9.11 so I am assuming something wrong with the upgrade script. Have checked the database using phpMyAdmin and whilst the field is present on a brand new install it is consistently missing in all the upgrades. Manually adding the field from phpMyAdmin rectifies the problem.

Would be very useful to have the full 2.0 data structure documented since I am seeing inconsistencies between the the number of tables in an upgraded site versus a new 2.0 site (upgrade had more tables) - some sort of test utility to validate the data structure would also be very very useful.

MyTiki Home... My pages results in error.

I'm creating a Tiki site with several small reusable bits of content (as Wiki pages). Cell phone users are my primary audience, so I'm relying on HAWHAW and HAWIKI. I'd like to use INCLUDE module or structures to reuse the content. Tiki handles it fine, but my mobile tiki doesn't support either INCLUDES or Structures. The INCLUDE lines pass right thru unparsed.

1. Is there an easy way for me to get INCLUDE to work?
2. Is it planned for support in a later release?
3. Are there plans for support for Structures?

Thanks for HAWHAW, it's great!
