OK, I went to the website http://cvs.zope.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/ZopePTK/PTKDemo/DemoPortal.zexp and downloaded DemoPortal.zexp, but it does not work on my Zope 2.1.4. Do I need the latest version of Zope in CVS? The error message is: Error Type: ImportError Error Value: No module named PTKDemo regards, Hung Jung ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
One thing I should point out firstly is that the LoginManager inside the PTK isn't finished yet and the developers don't suggest actually using it just yet. While I said it looks great (and it does) and it accepts the admin password it does _not_ yet have the api in place to let you authenticate from SQL. So you probably want to wait a bit still.

But after saying that if you still want to look at how they are going you need to actually install the Portal Tool Kit first. Have a look at it's install instructions at: http://www.zope.org/Products/PTK

Most of the unfinshed pieces have to do with giving users propertysheets. That makes it not quite useful for PTK yet. I'd say for non-PTK use it's in pretty good shape. Would I recommend using it currently? Well, for a production sight, I think maybe it's a bit too new. It could stand more testing and security review. But, if you're developing a site that you don't need to go live tomorrow, I say sure, go for it. It's quite useable for non-PTK applications.

Sure it does! Got a SQL-based GUF? You should be able to take your GUF userExists/userRoles/userAuthenticate/etc methods and plop them unchanged into a LoginManager Generic User Source (GUS), and have it Just Work. You're probably thinking of the comment that it's not ready to do SQL-based PTKs. This is because the propertysheet support that PTK needs isn't there for SQL. But, that's a feature that no other SQL-based userfolder has anyway -- it's a new thing, and at the moment only PTK needs it.
