Re: [Radiant] Re: Re: Radiant documentation - summer reboot
Hi David, I've always found building the navigation system in Radiant quite a hassle, so I have recently added an r:menu / to my fork of radiant (http://github.com/RSpace/radiant/tree/master ) and submitted a pull request to Sean. I have no idea if it will make it into Radiant 0.6.8 or even into core at all, but if is does, it should deprecate most of the r:if_self r:if_ancestor business. It is very similar to r:navigation /, but it generates the menu using the existing page hierarchy in the database, rather than requiring the developer to hard code it in the tag attributes. By the way, Mohit, did you create a page in the wiki with your outline? I can't seem to find it.

This is not split up into the sections that I had mentioned. I think some of these can be mixed and matched into the different sections. In general, this targets a person who is starting with Radiant but is actually a developer. I'm sure there's plenty more that can/ should go in, but I'm just passing this as a starting point. This looks great. The only thing I noticed was missing is a topic on navigation systems. I say we start with your outline in the wiki and move ahead from there. We can always adjust the outline as we progress if we need to. In the wiki outline, should we mark what topics we would like to work on so we don't duplicate effort? I think having multiple people work on the same topic is fine, but they should probably coordinate their effort. Silly question -- when working with the wiki, how do you create new pages? Do you just make a link to them and it recognizes a new page has been made... or something? I have Friday off from work, and will begin working on wiki content. I think I'll start with these topics: * navigation systems (simple using r:navigation; complex using r:if_self and r:if_ancestor_or_self and part=no-map) * using some of the common extensions - Dave -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. ___ Radiant mailing list Post: Radiant@radiantcms.org Search: http://radiantcms.org/mailing-list/search/ Site: http://lists.radiantcms.org/mailman/listinfo/radiant ___ Radiant mailing list Post: Radiant@radiantcms.org Search: http://radiantcms.org/mailing-list/search/ Site: http://lists.radiantcms.org/mailman/listinfo/radiant

Cheers, Casper I'm sorry I've been unavailable because we're participating at a trade show and it's been very busy putting things together for that. Should I create this as a separate page in the wiki, a separate page under the handbook, or as inidividual items in the handbook? I would like to initially treat this as a separate 'handbook' called 'Documentation - Summer Reboot' rather than into the main handbook. Hopefully, it will be easy to move pages around later? Would do you guys think?
