How can a cms manage content not by subjects

I'm quite interested in a solution too.

This one is important due to the fact that almost every website is not divided/navigated by functionality!

In most cases the navigation is by subjects - which leads us to a scenario that requires the ability to have pages/sections that will include blocks of the same subject from all the modules in the system

Lets say for example that we deal with a community site (a real community - not a virtual one) which has 3 main areas:
1. youth
2. families
3. ages of 60 plus

Each of those has it's presence in all kinds of moduls in the system (category in the forums, in the news module, etc' )

I must say that I use XOOPS for a few years years now and like it a lot, but this issue is a real problem for me.
I'll be glad to hear how other ppl's solved this issue....

I know the new newbb deals with custum moduls and that solves the forum's issue, but the problem is much more basic !!! ... How can a cms manage content not by subjects

Since there's no progress, I wonder if someone thinks of a similar module that can be altered for the same purpose ?

Since it's a really requested feature, probably some thoughts were here and there about it ....

Hello DobePhat
The solution is envolved in "enabling" something in your PHP installation (more or less), but may be a security hazard for your server, so my solution is to enable the "register globals" just in the xdirectory root dir with the help of an .htaccess file (apach configuration file) with the line I mentioned above. this file is working just in the directory it's in and the directories under it, so I see it as a very small security hole if at all, which can be used just from your site members.
I'm not advising to do it, just saying it works great for me.

Actually I found an easy answere to that, needed to be hard coded in the templates files, good enough for me.

You can use the "if $xoops_isuser == true" thing.

I used it in 3 place in xoopspoll/templates/ directory:
wherever there's anoption for users to vote, simply surround it with this IF statement


<{if $xoops_isuser == true}>



<{/if}>

Don't forget to do it in new lines, orelse it will generate templates mistakes and white areas

here is a sample of one area with changes:

In xoopspoll/templates/xoopspoll_results.html:


<td class="foot" colspan="2" align="center">

<{$poll.totalVotes}><br />

<{$poll.totalVoters}>

<{if $xoops_isuser == true}>

<br /><{$poll.vote}>

<{/if}>

I hope the polls developers will make an option for that in the module's admin, since it's a system module and this option is kinda "must" for a decent polls module.
especially if you use XOOPS without it's classic "portal" look (blocks on the right & left of the pages).

I havn't used polls for a while, so honestly couldn't tell you

I think if it's viewable, people can vote on it, but don't quote me on that.

Hello Stewdio
I do quote you on that

(you are right) and it's kinda funny that wasn't implemented as a poll feature yet.
I want the polls to be viewable to unregistered users in the main module page, I want them to be able to click on the polls to see results, but I don't want them to vite.

I tried to search the forum for an answere, but for now, nothing

I might try to do it myself as a quick dirty hardcoded hack If I won't find something else....

If someone did this b4, please comment and save me a few work hours

I have an older version at my site I altered for someone who wanted similar to yourself. This one uses spaw wysiwyg though, so it is all HTML which can be a security risk. He sets up a template and article for each user which they can edit themselves

Hi JackJ
I use wfs for a long time now, since the days of XOOPS 1.3.8 ... and thought about it when dealing with my "homepages" question, how did you altered it? is there a link for the users in their "user menu" ? or profile ?
I need it for a "close" community - so the risk of spaw is nothing to concern for me

....
Is it a clone of WFS (means - can I use it with another WFS installed?)
And ... WOW .. how many questions

, sorry about all those

May I have your code please ?

hehe, that's my project

it's a port of mambo's component userhomepages, it allows users to have an html page within the CMS, and they're able to upload image attachments as well.

Yep I know Membo for a while, so the project is surely promising, I'll be folowing it closely - sounds exacly what I'm looking for

like ackbarr said, the project was just started and is in early development, but i hope to have something out in the next 2 weeks.

Next 2 weeks ... Great !!!
Since I might help the New XOOPS Israel in the near future, I'll translate it when finished.
though ... when dealing with Hebrew all module needs to be worked on, not just the "lang" files (not mentioning dealing with the XOOPS Core) - all due to the right-to-left thing

By the way, bd_csmc, do you plane connecting the Spaw
(BR's problem and all) ?

I wonder If anybody knows about a module that might be suitable for "personal editable page" for each user"

I remember I saw something like that, but can't find it waywhere ....
I need this kind of module for a "vilage" website, which in, there should be a "self editable page" for each family.
(a family supposed to be a few "registered member")

10x in advanced for help or answeres

O.k
The Bug thing is over now, I'm trying to get all hebrew hardcoded things and to post it here (or to the auther first... to go over it)
one thing though, I use XOOPS search now, and I'm wondering if I can call it to search in a specific module, not by number (the number changes each XOOPS installation)

This is the code now:


<form name='search' id='search' action="<{$xoops_url}>/search.php" 

method="post" onsubmit="return xoopsFormValidate_search();">

<input type='hidden' name='mids[]' / value='30' />

<input type='hidden' name='action' id='action' value='results' />

</form>

is there another way of leading the search to a specific module ?

Yep Mithrandir, I know that. I use this register globals solution just to solve my imidiate problem for a site that I have to get online with.
I'll be heappy to hear from someone who solved it through the XOOPS mailer or whatever....
It's a bit hard to contact the module auther so...

albania, I almost solved the problem ( Riann solved it for me ), but it's not complete, still a bug @ the viewlist.php that needs to be solved, before I'll post it here.
(since my XOOPS is translated to Hebrew ... right-to-left + some hardcoded things) it'll take some time, but I'll try to post it soon.
