when I first wrote the Quickstart, the connection between templates,
dialogs and paragraphs was most confusing to me and I hope that its
somewhat made clear how things connect in the current release, that
was
reworked by Giancarlo.
Having begun to work through the quickstart tutorial - I was no
confused
by the terms nor the relationship. I was caught out by the rendering of
code examples (cut off on the right hand side).
I assume that the downloadable pdf does the right thing, if not please
add a jira issue
Is WebDAV working (I admit I haven't read that far yet...)?
no there is no webDAV, thats a leftover from a long time ago.
What is
confusing is moving stuff between Author and Public and having to rely
on an external text editor to create the .jsp
well, I disagree. For one thing, there are excellent editors out there
for creating JSP's, for another its quite straightforward to write some
kind of meta template that uses very generic, highly parameterized jsp
code that can be configured through adminCentral or directly (lets say
you have a template that takes its settings from the top level page;
you define there a css, maybe a banner etc...)
Another option is to use XML/XSLT to render content, and store in a
paragraph only their respective sources...
Many ways to skin a cat. Magnolia is wide open, go think outside the
box.
and directories in the
tree. A tool for file and folder creation/manipulation inside the Admin
interface would be a big plus.
hm, I don't exactly see what you mean. You create a template, maybe
even 10, But once you have them, the rest is done within the system
exclusively.
Lets say for a simple website you have
1 template for the entry page
1 for the normal pages 2 columns
1 for wide content possibly without the menu
1 for forms
If you wish add a template for standard html (paste & render) - not
that I like it, but its possible.
Inside of the templates you define a couple of paragraphs, lets say
* double column
* 2 single column
* image
* news (read from some "page" that holds the news items e.g. as sub
pages)
* maybe an rss renderer
* ...
Anyway, once you have defined what building blocks your site is made
of, you can add as many pages/tree structures & combinations of
paragraphs as you want - inside the browser, of course.
