Viewlet displaying user-editable links on portal or folder level
Project description
Overview
This package provides a viewlet that lets you enter in a list of local and external links on plonesite level and on subfolders. Usually these links get displayed in the footer, but the viewlet can be placed anywhere.
After installation the viewlet displays a Manage links button for users with the corresponding permission (granted to managers by default). Users can set the links for a context that implements ICanDefineLinks (plonesite or folders by default) by inserting them in a textfield like this:
Plone;http://plone.org Internal;/relative/to/plone-site Webmeisterei;http://webmeisterei.com
Links defined on the portal get displayed in subfolders too, as long as they do not define their own links.
See the package README for a test describing this package’s functionality in detail.
A screenshot of how links can be added and how they are displayed can be found on the product page on plone.org.
Installation
To use this package in a plone buildout add plone.app.z3cform to the eggs section and to the zcml slug for the zope instance:
[instance]
recipe = plone.recipe.zope2instance
...
eggs =
...
collective.viewlet.links
...
zcml =
collective.viewlet.links
Since collective.viewlet.links requires plone.app.z3cform the buildout is a little more complicating. See the developer buildout for an example.
use plone.recipe.zope2install >= 3.0 (default fake-eggs)
use same skip-fake-eggs
Contribute
Please submit bugs or feature requests to the issue tracker on the product page.
If you want to contribute to collective.viewlet.links, you can use the developer buildout.
See the README there for instructions on how to setup an instance and run the tests.
