This has been a fun but frustrating project... still learning how things go
together...
The page creation and now listing (using search) works pretty well.
Actually tried it early this morning with a real issue to see how it would
look.
Updating is not going to work the way I had planned it though...
Originally, I had planned on having a form that would collect the update
info, and then modify the existing page by adding the content to the end of
the page.
However in play with this manually with a real issue last night, I found
that adding updates to the bottom of the page is not very intuitive.
So this morning, I decided to perhaps treat updates as a sub-page of the
originally posted issue.
If an issue was like:
whiteboard.1253613947
Then the update would be a sub-page like:
whiteboard.1253613947.1253638554
another update would be like:
whiteboard.1253613947.1253639545
The pages are actually timestamps of when they were submitted which will be
unique enough for me.
This however messed with my search which is used to display the issues
themselves on the main page:
I am using this for that now:
[(search group=whiteboard.* order=reverse sort=p2 count=20 template=wbtemp)]
It appears that I can use pattern to limit what is caught, but I am not
clear on what format to use for that.
I've tried:
[(search group=whiteboard.* pattern="/whiteboard.\d{10}/" order=reverse
sort=p2 count=20 template=wbtemp)]
Thinking it would only match the first level, but that didn't seem to work.
If I can get that to work, I could then simply treat updates as sub pages to
the original issue, create a search for it that then displays them on the
issue page.
It looks like I will end up using a skin for these pages as I can then add
common parts that are not actually in the posted pages themselves (like the
table of updates, buttons for updating etc..)
Will be the first time I have tried that.
