Re: [Zope] NEWBIE: Versions
Andy, Follow the instructions as J said and you won't go far wrong, *but* be aware that if you have any external methods these are not exactly subject to the versioning. The problem happens when you restart Zope and the new code is read into both the versioned and original 'External Method'. Phil [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Original Message - From: "J.

Not sure if I undertand correctly your problem, but all you have to do is to create a version object in the folder you want to modify (Add Version). Then click on this object an connect to it. Then do all your modifications as you would do it without a version, and let your droids view it. When all is OK, click on your version object and click on save/discard, enter some text to describe what you've done and click save. Now you can disconnect and eventually delete your version object. hoping this will help bye, Jerome Alet ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
[Zope] NEWBIE: Versions
Hi folks, Thanks to your help a few months back, I eventually got my first big Zope site up. Now the marketing droids have let it mature and come back to me with a laundry-list of tweaks and changes. 'Tis time, think I, to use versioning: keep the live site running and work on a version with all changes, let the droids assess it, and then roll it live in one chunk. Now, how do I do that, then? -- Andy Gates, Learning and Research Technology [EMAIL PROTECTED] - ICQ#74362415 http://www.ilrt.bristol.ac.uk ___ Zope maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://lists.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
