A discussion board for Plone.
Project description
Introduction
Ploneboard is an easy to use web board. It utilizes the proven Plone user interface, and is made for easy integration into Plone sites. The target audience is businesses and developers wanting a discussion board in their Plone site.
Ploneboard aims to do one thing, and do it well. It will never be an over-the-top all-bells-and-whistles message board, but will stay minimal in the sense that it’s living inside an existing content management system - and will leverage that to the fullest extent possible.
Visit Ploneboard in the products area on plone.org for more information.
Ploneboard is sponsored by the Consumer Council of Norway, Marshall Mayer, LiveModern and various generous contributors
Installation
Requirements
Ploneboard requires Zope 2.10.4, Plone 3.0.x or later.
SimpleAttachment is required to handle attachments in comments.
Installing with buildout
If you are using buildout to manage your instance installing Ploneboard is even simpler. You can install it by adding it to the eggs line for your instance:
[instance] eggs = Products.Ploneboard
If another egg package depends on Products.Ploneboard you do not need to specify anything in the buildout configuration: buildout will detect this automatically.
After updating the configuration you need to run the ‘’bin/buildout’’, which will take care of updating your system.
Installing without buildout
You can install Ploneboard easily using the easy_install command from setuptools; this will install both Ploneboard and SimpleAttachment. You can install this in either the system python path or in the lib/python directory of your Zope instance. If you have setuptools installed you can do this using easy_install:
easy_install Products.Ploneboard
If you do not have setuptools you can install both manually by using the setup.py script in the SimpleAttachment and Ploneboard sources. If you want to install SimpleAttachment inside your Zope instance instead of system wide you can its ‘’–prefix=’’ option to install in the ‘’lib/python’’ directory of your Zope instance.
