Hello Dirk - 




>From what I can tell you are kinda in charge of Geeklog - its an awesome

piece of software so good job.  Ive noticed you guys are going to a new
version and had a discussion about new features people might want to see
- well i thought of one.



I deployed your system for this non-profit group and no one over there
knows anything about HTML so it has put a large administrative burden on
me that I had never intended.  Everytime they want to add an HTML page
its a disaster area.  Ive made them 2-3 HTML templates with 8000 comments
on them but they are still confused often.  They deal with globalization
issues so they are publishing news almost daily but it kinda falls
outside of the blog-sphere so they like to add them as static pages. 
They are nice people so its no big deal to help them a bit (takes me like
2 seconds) but I see a way around this.



I ran into this product some other people use for super simple HTML
additions to a website that is dumbed down enough for people who don't
know any HTML.  It was called City Desk - I found it on the net here:



http://www.fogcreek.com/CityDesk/index.html



Anyway, watch that demo they offer - the program appears to set up a PHP
template and then drops the HTML stories into it as needed.  I think
Geeklog could do something like this - like a little link in the admin
section that says "Static Page additions for people who dont know HTML" -
you click on it and you can just drop text into a file that then drops
the text into a pre-determined template.  It probably wouldnt even be
that difficult to pull off - considering i think thats what GL does now
with the blog-side of the software (but im not really sure)



Maybe this is a bit out of the scope of what you guys are trying to do
but Ive seen other GL installs for organizations that probably face the
same problems that I do.  I bet this would be a huge help to many.



Great product - keep up the work.  If you need some help doing something
not too terribly technical I would gladly offer some assistance.



John Serrao

Subject: [geeklog-devel] Anyone have PHP 4.1.x?
Reply-To: geeklog-devel at lists.geeklog.net

Does anyone here have a server that's still running PHP 4.1.x?

Apparently, there's a problem getting PEAR to work on PHP 4.1.x, see
<http://project.geeklog.net/tracker/index.php?
func=detail&aid=337&group_id=6&atid=105>. There's also a forum thread
that I can't find at the moment ...

The problem, as I remember, was that PEAR uses a function that only
exists as of PHP 4.2.0. And I think there was a PEAR package that you
could install to overcome this.

I wanted to look into this, but couldn't even get PHP 4.1.2 to compile on
the only spare machine I have at the moment, so I was wondering if any of
you still had access to such a beast.

bye, Dirk

My old server is running 4.1.2.  I don't really have time to mess with it,
but if you want I can set up web and shell access for you.  Email me if so.

Anybody get that sample app with most of the GL2 framework in it working?

I really need some validation from the group and community before I can, 
in good faith, continue.

Vinny, I got your message...just give it a whirl when you find time.

Tony,

I got it working, but I haven't spend time yet studying the code. 
I'll get you some decent input soon I hope.

Tony,

Yeah, sorry. I said I would try it out but haven't ... So much to do, so
little time ...

bye, Dirk
