pier admin update

Hi,

Since my initial post about Pier Admin I've fixed numerous bugs, added documentation and simplified the configuration. The WYSIWYG parser now parses tables, embedded lists, book index and reference links. To the best of my knowledge it should either understand or preserve all Pier markup. Let me know if not.

I've also created a new book view - BOAggregatedView. From it's comment:

I display my own structure and all my child structures if I answer true to #isPublication. I format publication numbers as the default book template. I provide an edit link for each child structure.

The view allows you to view all the contents of a chapter or section at once. I'm couldn't find anything similar already in Pier, is there?

I've discovered some cool Pier-EditorEnh functionality that I didn't know existed. If you click on a link button (in the enhanced wiki editor) without any text highlighted a popup window displays the site map and the available value links. Very cool. There was a small bug which prevented it working in Pier2, which should now be fixed.

As ever Pier admin can be installed with:

Gofer it
renggli: 'pier2addons';
package: 'ConfigurationOfPierAdmin';
load.
ConfigurationOfPierAdmin loadBleedingEdge.

Let me know how you get along - feedback always appreciated.

Nick

Re: pier admin update

Hi Nick.

Is pieradmin.seasidehosting.st updated too? Are possible to add a text in the Pier Admin, where the users can see what version is running of it?

I like very much Pier Admin. Thanks!

Re: pier admin update

Hi Gastón,

Is pieradmin.seasidehosting.st updated too?

I updated it middle of last week - it isn't running the latest version, but a version with the parsing fixes in place.

Are possible to add a text in the Pier Admin, where the users can see what version is running of it?

Possibly, though I think once Pier Admin seems stable enough I'll create a version 1.0 in the Metacello configuration (ConfigurationOfPierAdmin) - think Metacello versions are probably the best way to tracking versions as Pier Admin is build on top of many different components, so a Metacello snap-shot of components it probably the best way to handle this.

I like very much Pier Admin. Thanks!

Good to hear, thanks

Nick

Fine, so the version online is continuously updated. I asked you because I would like share this with some friends....

Yes, of course at install level. But I'm thinking in the editors of the site, how know what is the version of Pier Admin (for choose doc to read for example)? But, maybe that is not very important for now.

Good to hear, thanks

I'm very interested in the book format of Pier, with it I made the help system for my desktop apps running in the intranet, and now Pier Admin clean and simplify the work. Cheers.

Nick
