Hi, It looks like Pier does not take into account the changes made to the CSS using the Edit Design command. You can reproduce the error by just: - Edit Design - add: body { background: yellow;} - save and nothing happens. The strange thing is that the changes are stored, they just do not affect the rendering. Cheers, Doru -- www.tudorgirba.com www.tudorgirba.com/blog "What we can governs what we wish."

Blueprint

by Keith Hodges

I am a bit stuck in a pre-Blueprint world. So I was having a look at it. I loaded up the current, release of pier, and it is very clean and ready to be styled. I miss the tree view, has it gone because it doesnt fit in the layout? Blueprint looks cool for some applications. I have one site which has a fairly fixed layout, so blueprint appears to me to be an ideal solution for that, but not, I fear for pier in general. This appears to me to be a better fit, for general blogish/corporate sites. http://www.contentwithstyle.co.uk/Articles/17/a-css-framework/ best regards Keith

Pier - IMG placement

by John Borden

Pier Experts, At my work, we've been running a smallwiki (the origininal version of pier) for about 3 years, and have accumulated around 3k pages. While looking into upgrading to pier, I noticed that the newest images on ** site resolve the missing slash problem (backslashes disappear in preformatted text if they don't preceed a *), however there's a new problem. Suppose I have images intermingled with text, such as: text1 <IMG ALT="Picture1" src="http://apache/resources/images/ pic1.png" /> text2 <IMG ALT="Picture2" src="http://apache/resources/images/ pic2.png" /> text3 Assuming that the apache server is down, it would appear as: text1 Picture1 text2 Picture2 text3 With the new version of pier, it is displaying as: text1 Picture1 text2 Picture2 text3 Does anyone know a way to fix this? Is it in the CSS or in the ST code? Thanks in advance, John Borden

Customizing Pier

by Squeaker

Greetings, I am just starting to poke around Pier and I am trying to figure out how to hide the "Views" menu from a non-admin user. I can change the permissions for "Other" so that there are no menu choices under the "Views" menu but the box with the word "Views" still appears. I would like this to not be shown. How can this be done? Just to clarify, what I mean by the "Views" menu is the menu on the left hand side. There are three menus on the lhs: Views, Commands and Navigation. I want the Views menu to not appear at all. Thanks, Frank

How to insert a graphic image in Pier

by Squeaker

Hi, I am experimenting with Pier and I would like to create a link to an image (jpg) file. The Pier documentation on syntax says: The contents of some links, e.g. links pointing to image-files, can be embedded into the current document by using +s: +reference+. However not all types of links support embedding and will quietly ignore it. I don't understand the "+s: +reference+" syntax, can someone provide a real example that shows how this works? Thanks, Frank

Another beginner question: query strings, google...

by Sean Allen

When navigating through a pier site like Lukas' you end up with URL like: http://www.lukas-renggli.ch/smalltalk/pier?_s=mvDlpeLCyYzIkvaG&_k=OrAJMTqF&… but google has it indexed as http://www.lukas-renggli.ch/smalltalk/pier Does the query string only get appended for users with cookies? I'm assuming that is the case but its one of those fine points of seaside and pier that I'm not actually familiar with yet.

Rendering descriptions with automatic management of SUTabPanel

by Dario Trussardi

Hi All, i work with some model descripted with MAgritte. Some model have 20 or more description and when display it, for the user isn't simple. I begin to write component for rendering description with SUTabPanel. The idea is to group description based on it priority for example: the description with priority from 1000 to 1999 go in the first tab, from 2000 to 2999 go in the descon tab, and so on. The second idea is to renderign on the single tab div with: description from x100 x199 on the first line of the tab. description from x200 x299 on the second line of the tab. and so on. My question are: anyone solve, work around this problem ? do you have any consideration about it ? Any pointers would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! Dario

child in PRAddCommand question

by Esteban Lorenzano

Hi, I'm using pier in a project who needs execute certain operations after a command is executed (journal/persistence stuff) and I added a method PRCommand, who is executed after doExecute... so... what is the problem? well, I have to mark an object as "persistent", in PRAddCommand, and then I do: self child bePersistent... but, as #child answer a ew instance of #type, the operation is lost... I changed #child to use an instVar and just instantiate once.... everything seems to be working now, but I want to know if there is a possible problem with this change... what do you think? the change works? Thanks, Esteban
