Re: Feature: Installation Instructions
by gwen on Friday July 30, 11:48AM, 1999
I love this demo so far... i have it installed on my openbsd box... and squishdot works beautifully when it is in a relative url... when I attempt to replace the "Welcome to Zope" index_html with the squishdot index_html no matter which method I use cut and paste or file upload... I wind with a zope error???
HELP I want squishdot as my home page...how do i go about this...?? Also where is the anonymous coward mode of slashdot... does it exist... how do I activate it...??

Thanx for a fantastic product...

gwen

    You probably can't replace the topmost "Welcome to Squishdot" index_html with Squishdot's index_html . The squishdot folder has to reside in a level lower than the topmost. What you can do is change the content of the topmost index_html to do a redirect by adding the following code :

    <dtml-call "RESPONSE.redirect('MySquishdotFolder')">

    where 'MySquishdotFolder' is the relative URL of your Squishdot folder. This will redirect all accesses to the topmost index_html to your Squishdot home page.

    As for the AC posting, there's no such thing... Squishdot doesn't currently support user registration so the only way posting authors are identified are by what each poster enters as their name...

      This begs the question, when will user login support be added?


      This was one of the features I was looking around for clear information on, on the site. Unfortunately, this is a feature I require, so my own ideas won't move up as fast as I had hoped.


      The other feature I'm looking for clear information on is advertisement handling. What kind of features does the ad service have?


      It's been years since I've done any coding besides html, so my brain isn't quite ready to learn python yet :)
