[Radiant] New Site: West Port Book Festival

Announcing a new site built on Radiant: http://westportbookfestival.org/ Designed by Will Brady, built by myself. I was determined to keep it simple, so kept the number of extensions to a minimum: * Reorder[1] * Sass[2] * Subscriber lists[3] * Wrappits[4] * Markdown I considered

Nice site! Well done. Thanks. Couldn't you use the published date to order the events instead of reorder? Although, I personally haven't tried much with dates in the future. I was under the impression that if a page has a publishing date set in the future, it would only become visible on

Drew, Thanks for the advice (and the vote!). My original patch included tests, but now that Radiant has moved on to specs I guess it has gone stale. I will try forking Radiant, and translating my tests into specs. Does anyone know a rough schedule for the next release? Assuming I get some

Some anecdotal evidence: On a site I've been working on recently that is still on 0.6.4, I added a published-date selector (like what is in 0.6.5+) to the UI using an extension, and converted a page that had been cherry-picking individual articles to use the aggregation extension. When I did

[Radiant] Shards and loading same-named Rails views

Hi all, I just ran into an issue with Shards, and wanted to know if what I experienced is normal or a bug. I'm using Radiant 0.6.6 gem and Shards from the 0.6.6 SVN tag. I have two extensions that use Shards, both of which have a similarly named file:

If your site doesn't get a lot of traffic (or won't), I would suggest using sqlite3 and git locally in your project, and using the copy strategy in Capistrano. These settings should do the trick: set :deploy_via, :copy set :copy_strategy, :export set :scm, :git set :repository,

Putting the sqlite3 database is a nifty idea, as long as you never make changes to your site in production mode. -Alex http://beautifulpixel.com On Jul 22, 2008, at 8:34 AM, Sean Cribbs wrote: If your site doesn't get a lot of traffic (or won't), I would suggest using sqlite3 and git

This is a known issue, and has more to do with Rails than Shards. It will not be resolved, but should be documented because the workaround is simple. I would suggest naming the partials something that refers back to your extension, like _aaa_css_overrides.rhtml for example. Sean David
