[Xerte-dev] Re: list of issues from word doc

Looking at this list of outstanding issues I'd comment on those I've pasted
below as follows:

 

Properties Panel

Should we either publish a file when export is hit, or prompt to publish if
not already (whatever is easiest). Seems to me that exporting implies
publishing, so force a publish?

I don't think this should be forced. As I responded previously I can see
times when an author wants to export the currently published version before
or after changes without publishing those changes. e.g. might think ok I've
made quite a few changes and I'm now not sure about all of theme so I think
I'll export a copy for safe keeping without publishing my recent changes.
It's been this way since toolkits began so why change it now?

 

Fix the missing publish button.

Isn't this fixed now? e.g. publish button in publishproerties pop-up should
show whether lo is public or not.

 

Publish

The publish button and process doesn't seem quite right, especially with
exporting files.

See above.

 

Delicious Bookmarks

Not sure what this is so may not be using it right - I add some words in
Search Term box but nothing appears in panel.

Xampp I think, doesn't use rss_proxy

Works fine on my xampp install

>is there anything else for anyone to do Julian?

Plenty I suspect. we've gcome along way this week though.

 

I'd like to really test all the php / web app stuff so if the files are up
to date on the server, let's start testing that. Every piece of
functionality you can think of.

 

Also management.php?

Thanks Johnathan

 

I think most of the items on the list have been looked at now.

Julian has an updated version of the list showing what's been fixed - is
there anything else for anyone to do Julian?

Fay,

 

With respect to your list of issues with pages.

 

I have now fixed the image size issue with the flickr page so that it
accommodates pictures with varying numbers of sizes available. The code now
either uses the first size that will need constraining so that the image
fills as much of the space available, or it uses the largest image
available.

 

Kind regards

 

Johnathan

Hi Folks

 

I have just committed the rest of my changes for today.

 

I noticed that a lot of model files now have language="en_GB" back in them.

 

I will take that out again either tonight or tomorrow.

 

Attached is list of actions done today so you can update your main list.

 

Kind regards

 

Johnathan
