[Radiant] Values of the Radiant community (and Ecommerce solution?)

I am consistently impressed with how helpful and friendly people are to another on this list. It's good to see. And I wonder about the role that geek practices such as the agile methodology play in this kind of friendly behavior. I've been reading more about agile and related practices (I am a

I have the tags extension installed, and I want to try out taggable. But it seems that both use a table called tags, and this causes the migration of taggable to halt. I suppose I will have to remove the tags extension to install taggable, but if there is another way to do this (so that I preserve

I can find various online postings and tutorials about increasing the cache in rails, but is there a conventional way to do this in Radiant? In other words, how do you do this: The default cache timeout is only five minutes, though. I normally increase that to at least a week. Ross

My approach has been to place all css files in /css (and all javascript in /js). I assume this folder will not be over-written by future updates. These non-standard folders probably violate the principle of convention over configuration, but the fact that the folders are outside of /stylesheets

I'm a newbie too, so I'm a little worried about misdirecting you due to my own lack of knowledge, but I have run into this type of problem several times. In my case, it has always been due to the fact that rake looks for a different database than the one I want the extension to be installed into.
