Testing Resources

(by Seth Dillingham, @ 2:41 PM)

Greg says that resources aren't being handled properly in weblog items, but he didn't provide any details. This is an attempt to discover what the problem is.

TLS <-- that's the TLS resource

Macrobyte's Logo <-- that's macrobyte's logo

Why channels?

(by Seth Dillingham, @ 7:00 PM)

Mark's comments here, and the lack of comments from everyone else, makes me think I might need to explain channels again.

The best example I can think of is "departments."

As with a lot of features in Conversant, it might make the most sense on a busy site (Slashdot uses departments, for example) or on an intranet.

    Macro List

    (by Seth Dillingham, @ 10:20 PM)

    This page should be kept up to date with the list of macros available in the new plugin.

    There's so much work to do... I'll finish documenting these macros as I get a chance, but at least you have a complete list now!

    Use in the <HEAD> Section of Page Template

    weblog.header

    Use in Message Templates

    weblog.addToWeblogForm

    Puts the checkboxes on the message editing form, the checkboxes and the "submit" button on the page when viewing a message, and puts a hidden element with the page's ID in the "New Item" form on weblog pages.

    Can show a date field for controlling the date to which the item will be posted on the weblog:

    <!--#weblog.addToWeblogForm showDate="true"-->

    Anywhere on a Weblog Page

    weblog.channelName
    weblog.copyright
    weblog.pageWrapper

    Can be used like the #insertTemplate macro to "insert" a weblog, anywhere.

    Accepts parameter attributes which give you full control over the templates.

    Not used anywhere on a regular Weblog II page.

    weblog.URL

    Returns the URL of the weblog. Optional parameters allow it to return the url for specific dates, or the URL for the RSS format, or both.

    Examples:

    <!--#weblog.URL date="2003/04/23"-->

    <!--#weblog.URL date="2003/04/23" format="RSS"-->

    weblog.xmlrpcURL

    Use Anywhere on Weblog Page, Intended for Weblog Wrapper Template

    weblog.calendar.wrapper

    Inserts the weblog calendar into the page.

    weblog.description

    Intended primarily for use in the RSS feed.

    weblog.editButton
    weblog.language
    weblog.newItemForm

    Generally belongs in the weblog wrapper template. Puts a form, on the weblog page, for posting directly to that weblog.

    weblog.owner

    Weblog Calendar Macros

    weblog.calendar.ctEmptySpaces

    Sneaky little macro that knows where in the calendar it's being called (as long you put it somewhere that it belongs). It returns a number indicating the amount of empty "days" before the first of the month or after the last day of the month. Returns 0 if the week doesn't have any empty days.

    Used solely in the weblog calendar's week templates.

    weblog.calendar.date
    weblog.calendar.dayCssClass

    Returns a class name for a cell in the weblog calendar.

    Only works in a Weblog Calendar Day Template.

    There are different class names for different types of cells: weekday, saturday, sunday, and the "current day".

    Also, a second class name is returned if the day contains any weblog items, which means this cell will contain a link. (So, the final result might be something like "calendarLinked calendarSunday".

    The parameters allow you to override any of the default class names.

    Note that the default template for calendar days, called "Weblog Calendar Day READONLY," appends "Cell" to the end of the class name returned by this macro. To change that, you must provide your own template for calendar days.

    weblog.calendar.daynum

    Returns the date being referred to for your weblog archives.

    The date is typically formatted as a number between 0 and 31, but can be formatted differently. See the format attribute, below.

    If a |weblog channel| is being viewed, then the links point to that channel's archives.

    See the outline of Weblog II macros for fuller documentation.

    weblog.calendar.days
    weblog.calendar.emptySpace
    weblog.calendar.monthLink
    weblog.calendar.weekDays

    Use in the Weblog Day Template

    weblog.day.date
    weblog.day.items
    weblog.day.link
    weblog.day.path
    weblog.days

    Use In Weblog Item Templates

    weblog.item.anchor
    weblog.item.body
    weblog.item.categories
    weblog.item.link
    weblog.item.permaLink
    weblog.item.postedTime
    weblog.item.subject
    weblog.item.summary
