Re: [Radiant] mailers, which one should I use?

2008-06-02 Thread danny q.
Hey Chris,

That is pretty much what I was looking for before I used apache rules to
do it.  I really can't say how big a problem it is because I don't know
how many people need to run production radiant on non-root urls, and I
don't know how many of them are as green and part-time as me, and
wouldn't be able to tweak the source a bit on their own to do it.

There might be a benefit to having something like what you describe (one
line of code commented out by default) in the environment.rb for the
whole radiant install and its extensions, but I don't know how much
cat-herding would be involved in getting that implemented and getting
all the extension code to work with it.

Nonetheless, thanks for the clarification on that.  I didn't know about
the custom_settings.rb, so that little bit of information should come in
handy sooner or later.

Re: [Radiant] mailers, which one should I use?

2008-06-01 Thread Chris Parrish

Danny,

I was hoping to include a fix for this issue with v0.4 but did not get 
to it yet.  But, for now, you can already solve this issue using the 
config settings that I have built into the SnS extension (don't know why 
I didn't think of this sooner).


To do this you edit the custom_settings.rb file in the root of the 
extension.  In there you will find instructions and commented-out 
settings for the stylesheet_directory and javascript_directory (lines 24 
& 25 in my latest version).  Based on your example, you'd set these to:


 StylesNScripts::Config[:stylesheet_directory] = 'radiantroot/css'
 StylesNScripts::Config[:javascript_directory] = 'radiantroot/js'

Or if you want to get creative, you could:

 StylesNScripts::Config[:stylesheet_directory] = 
'radiantroot/assets/my-stylesheets'
 StylesNScripts::Config[:javascript_directory] = 
'radiantroot/assets/my-javascripts'


Restart your server and everything should just work for you (unless I'm 
misunderstanding your request here).  These settings will automatically 
adjust caching, rendering, and all the tags.

were two problems I had to address for the relative link issue. 


First, with the old-fashioned script and style linking, each had to be
set explicitly in the  tag.  That is, I had to do  instead of just href="...".  That wasn't a big
deal, because it was in layouts which I only had to think about once

It's just how the html is supposed to work, right?


Second, the problem was a general gotcha with extensions.  Any extension
based on a path relative to / wouldn't work.  This included
styles-n-scripts, mailer, and, I think calendar.  I dug around for a
definition of a variable that would fix that, but didn't have much luck,
so decided to just go with the .htaccess hack.  It works well enough for
testing, and I definitely 'get' the whole thing about radiant not being
defined for sub-urls.

It might be interesting to see how well the root url variable definition
would work, but it looks like some of the extensions just assume it's
"/" and hard-code that way (based on my shaky RoR reading), so that
could limit the mileage a bit.

By the way, great work on both Radiant and the SnS extension.  Thank you.

[Radiant] mailers, which one should I use?

2008-05-28 Thread danny q.
Hi Radiant list,

I've been getting ready to migrate my current site to radiant, been
running tests on a subdomain.  The last step before I switch over is to
get a mailer contact form up and running, and I just can't seem to do it.

I know that there've been a lot of updates in the past few weeks, and I
think I can list my known unknowns as follows:

1.  Which mailer extension should I use for 0.6.7?  There's the svn
listed in the radiantcms.org wiki, and there's another one in github. 
Are either compatible and working with the current radiant?  I've tried
both with no luck.

2.  Assuming one of them is compatible, can anyone give me some updates
to the documentation?  I suspect the non-workingness may be more of a
pebkac phenomenon, but I've spent a good amount of time hacking around,
and can hardly even get a worthwhile error message (even though I
enabled them in environment.rb).

3.  What changes should I have to make to get this working in a
subdirectory of the URL root.  The radiant root url is on something like
http://mysite.com/testing/, which has caused me a little trouble before,
and might be the source of all my problems here.  Is there a site root
variable I should change or define, or perhaps an .htaccess line I
should drop somewhere?

I'd really appreciate some pointers on this.  I've been really impressed
with the community involvement and active development around here, and
it's a big part of why I'm switching to Radiant.

Thanks,
--danny
