CMF metadata; CMF talkback; ownership
hello folks, i'm new to zope, and i've been trying to get up to speed with the CMF. i have a query about metadata (and some other more general queries below). when i create a CMF site and view it, i can use the portal controls to 'join' (create a user) and then, having authenticated myself as that user, create documents, news items, images etc. in my member area. when i do so i am invited to provide metadata. when i view the members folder through the zope interface, i can click on documents and news items to be presented with a 'dublin core' tab, through which i can examine the metadata for that item. however, images appear to be the same as 'standard' zope images, with no dublin core tab. but the metadata is somewhere! i can still view and edit it through the portal interface. so where is it stored?!?!?! also, images seem to make the talkback interface misbehave. consider the following setup: http://localhost:8080/cmftest/Members/hamish/index_html (document) http://localhost:8080/cmftest/Members/hamish/images (folder) http://localhost:8080/cmftest/Members/hamish/images/photo_of_me (image) i configure the system to allow talkback on documents and images, and then create some nested comments on index_html and photo_of_me. the link to the first talkback comment on index_html has the form: http://localhost:8080/cmftest/Members/hamish/index_html/talkback/999212237 and the plus next to it used to expand the tree has the form: http://localhost:8080/cmftest/Members/hamish/index_html?tree-c=eJyLVneEAq- sZFt1HQUEvyLUVj0WAIdvCFk#AAAAAAAAJxU= but wheras the link to the first talkback comment on photo_of_me has the same form: http://localhost:8080/cmftest/Members/hamish/images/photo_of_me/talkback/999... 04 its tree expansion link has the form: http://localhost:8080/cmftest/Members/hamish/images/photo_of_me/photo_of_me? tree-e=eJyLVneEAq8CV1t1HQUEv8zRVj0WAIU7CCs#AAAAAAAAJvA= and clicking on that plus sign just shows me the image, i.e., as if the url had been .../images/photo_of_me or .../images/photo_of_me/photo_of_me. okay, just one more query now! this one may be a bug. - i authenticate myself as 'user_u' (manager/owner), and create 'folder_f'. - inside 'folder_f' i create 'folder_g', inside which i create 'folder_h', inside which i create 'document_d'. - inside 'folder_h' i also create an acl_users folder and add a new user, 'user_v' (manager/owner). - i authenticate myself as 'user_v' and take ownership of 'document_d'. - i authenticate myself as 'user_u', cut 'folder_h' and paste it into 'folder_f'. - 'folder_g' is now empty and can be deleted. - i authenticate myself as 'user_v' and examine 'document_d'. i am invited to take ownership of said document (because i am 'user_v (folder_f/folder_h/acl_users)', and it is owned by 'user_v (folder_f/folder_g/folder_h/acl_users)'). is this the desired behaviour? i appreciate that had i simply deleted 'user_v', 'document_d' would still be owned by that user, but somehow it seems wrong that the same estrangement can be achieved by a more powerful user moving a subfolder (e.g., when trying to reorganise the layout of several websites on a single zope server). thanks, hamish -- Get your firstname@lastname email for FREE at http://Nameplanet.com/?su
