Clean up the End Users Portion of the How-to Page
last modified April 15, 2007 by geeklibrarian
I'd like to clean up the End Users section of the How-to main page sooner rather than later and these are the changes I'm proposing.
The following are currently (mis-)listed in the End Users section. [ ]’s in bold indicate where I propose moving/keeping each item; [ ]’s in regular font are just additional notes/comments. Items not listed here are fine.
Installation and setup
How
to hack your Zope 2 instance so that you can install Python packages using
easy_install
[Server Administrators]
This HOWTO guides you through the few steps required to make your Zope 2 instance on Unix/Linux/Mac OSX a full-blown Python environment where you can install Python packages without administrator rights, using the convenient EasyInstall tool.
Authentication

Content space organization
NewsItems
archive using SmartFolders and expirationdate
[Site Administrators] [possibly End
Users as well but out of the box Plone doesn’t allow non-site managers to
create SmartFolders; not sure if that’s still the case in Plone 3.0]
This howto shows a way to separate current news from archived ones using expiration date and smartfolders by making the catalog return expired items too.
Security and Workflows
Displaying
only “published” items in folder listings to anonymous users.
[Site Administrators]
[I’d also like to tag this document for refactoring or to be deleted if
there are better docs that cover this topic – e.g. how to make a private plone
site]
If you don't do this, Plone's folder listing option will display both visible and published items to anonymous users.
Sharing
Editing Capabilities for Pages and Folders
[Site Administrators] [Also, this doc is missing all its pretty
pictures; should be fixed or retracted/obsoleted]
This describes how to give a user of your site editing privileges of particular folders or pages.
General User Interface customization
Displaying only “published” items in folder listings to anonymous users.
[Site Administrators] [duplicate; probably doesn’t belong here]
If you don't do this, Plone's folder listing option will display both visible and published items to anonymous users.
Content components
Allow
all inline styles in Kupu
[Site Administrators] [should
probably be in Presentation Components instead?]
How to disable Kupu's filtering of all inline styles
