[campsite-support] several questions
  • Hi I have several questions and some feedback:

    - in admin can you search for an article? like.. I remember about an article
    published some time ago.. about x subject.; and all you remember is x
    subject..?

    - for photos, the caption or as is called here description can be in several
    languages? ex: you have the site in 2 languages and you need to put the
    caption / description in both languages..

    - cron scripts:

    you need to run: campsite_indexer to get index to be able to use the
    following code:

    {{ if $campsite->image->has_image2 }}

    {{ /if }}

    otherwise you need the other solution:



    in campsite-3.2.1-sample-templates-03-v1 you show an image at article in
    section, but the main article has no image. if I use the second code, I can
    get image. the article has 2 images.

    it's an issue because the cron is not running or syntax issue?


    - how do you put the caption in the html attribute: alt=... ?

    - can you chose the place where you put photo1, photo 2..etc.. like a 6
    paragraphs text and 5 photos. what you? all at the beginning? at the end? as
    a column one under other?

    - if you use some of the examples from gallery how do you put the caption/
    description for each photo?

    Feedback:

    In some parts of the manual there are information in the hypothesis you own
    the server and you can do whatever you want.
    This is one approach. The other approaches are were you have jobs spitted
    and some guys don't have access at certain resources.
    The last option is shared hosting, fast, reliable.. where also you have some
    limitations.

    So it should be added the other options / solutions.

    The automatical installation can generate sometimes strange ownerships of
    the folders (like the web demon)..

    For perl scripts run by the cron there are other options to substitute them?

  • You can use images in the templates without running campsite-indexer. The
    indexer is only for article search functionality.

    You have a syntax error in your template:
    {{ if $campsite->image->has_image2 }}

    The proper code is:
    {{ if $campsite->image->has_image(2) }}

    Please read this page for a complete article properties:

    Also, please use the issue preview function from the admin interface: this
    will display the syntax errors found in the templates so you don't have to
    wonder why something is not working.

  • Hi Mugur,

    does Campsite only work with APC cache or also with other caches? My
    host tells me it's not possible to install APC with PHP running as
    suPHP. He would however install any kind of cache for me which could
    be installed under suPHP and can be used by Campsite.

    Cheers,

    Pippa
  • Hi Pippa,

    Mugur implemented the pluggable cache feature in 3.3. Currently there is
    only the "plug" for APC, however. You'd have to write or get someone to
    write you one (and as far as I understand it, it's not that much of a task.
    Here is what Mugur answered to Gabi a while ago:
