Re: [Radiant] Radiant on Heroku - RDiscount or BlueCloth?

2009-11-13 Thread Charles Roper
Sean,

Well, I've found BlueCloth 2 is also not working on Windows, despite the 
fact it seemingly has a mingw binary. I think I must have been using an 
old version when I thought it was fine.

I think the problem for BlueCloth at present is that Michael Granger, 
the maintainer, uses Trac and Mercurial instead of Git/Github. Using 
something other than Git is kind of a handicap these days for a Ruby 
library.

Cheers,
Charles

 Charles,

 Please leave that in the wiki, or at least correct the error about it
 being faster and less error prone.  Radiant's MarkdownExtension will
 currently look for rdiscount, and if that is missing, use bluecloth (the
 packaged version).  I'd appreciate a patch that searches for BlueCloth 2
 first.

 This is surely out of date since BlueCloth 2 was released?

 http://deveiate.org/projects/BlueCloth

 Would anyone object if I removed the information about RDiscount? Main
 reason being, it doesn't have a Windows binary and doesn't compile using
 the new mingw Ruby + DevKit whereas BlueCloth does have a mingw binary
 and so works with Windows just great.

 Cheers,

 Hi,

 First post here - just getting to grips with Radiant.

 I'm trying to install the Paperclipped extension on a test site and have
 run into a couple of issues. I'm on Windows, using the RubyInstaller
 (which recently went RC1):

  ruby -v
 ruby 1.8.6 (2009-08-04 patchlevel 383) [i386-mingw32]

 I've done some further digging and found the problem. I've created an
 issue on Github:

 http://github.com/radiant/radiant/issues/#issue/69

 I've created a patch (attached) that should fix this issue.

 Cheers,
 Charles

 Thanks John, looks good apart from one typo that I managed to slip in
 there. I've added a comment to the commit:

 http://github.com/radiant/radiant/commit/71646bb1574713435d257825f21d984eb4ea8ba3#L0R187

 Want another patch or is it easier for you to fix?

[Radiant] Pages, Snippets and Layouts Coordination

2009-11-13 Thread Jason Broom
I'm seeking a clarification on the relationships between Pages, Snippets and
Layouts when it comes to CSS. I'm unable to visualize how Radiant mashes a
Page named 'Styles' containing CSS, associates it with a Layout that only
has the Radiant tag r:content /, then somehow maps to the div structures
in the Layout named 'Normal'.

 

Is it because the Page 'Styles' is slugged 'styles.css', and the Layout
'Stylesheet' is a context-type text/css

 

I know this is Radiant 101, but thinking of CSS as a Page is not intuitive,
as I equate Pages with navigation. Would I be better off skipping CSS as a
Page, and just link rel=stylesheet somewhere in the metaverse? 

 

Just looking for some insights from those with deeper experience.

 

Thanks.

that's my preferred way; not to mention spending a database lookup
(actually more than one) and having your css expire from the cache
every five minutes aren't what you'd call performant.

Re: [Radiant] n-tiered Navigation

2009-11-13 Thread Anton Aylward
Jason Broom said the following on 11/13/2009 05:30 PM:
 New to RadiantCMS. Not a developer. I'm trying to create an n-tiered (three
 levels) standard navigation for a test site. Grandparents - Parents -
 Children. This n-tiered navigation should always show the Grandparents, but
 only show the children when a parent is clicked on. I don't want any
 third-tier cousins to see one another.

What you're missing is do it all with CSS.
Go google for things like Suckerfish menu done entirely in CSS.

I did this for one client - very nice it was.
Just as you describe.
They decided they didn't want it after all :-(

It uses three levels of nested ul ... /ul and the menu items are
each li.../li


div id=menu
ul
  lih2Actions /h2
  ul
 li  Action 1 /li
 li  Action 2 /li
 li  h2Nested Actions/h2
 ul
  li Nested Action1 /li
 /ul
 /li
  /ul
   /li
/ul
/div
