EEA Possible Relations. This package provides a flexible way to manage relations in a Plone site. it provides a new reference browser widget and a central management interface for relations, their labels and requirements.
Project description
Introduction
EEA Relations package redefines relations in Plone. Right now in Plone any object can be in relation with any other object. EEA Relations lets you to define possible relations between objects. EEA Relations also comes with a nice, customizable faceted navigable popup for relations widget.
Once installed from “Add-ons”, the package will add an utility called “Possible relations” under “Control Panel”.
Main features
Main goal of EEA Relations is to be an alternative to the default Plone related item widget.
EEA Relations features:
Define/restrict what kind of content types a certain content can relate to
Set restrictions on possible relations (e.g. relations can be made only with published content)
You can define easy to use faceted searches (using EEA Faceted navigation) on the relate items popup
Nice visual diagram showning all the relations and restrictions you defined (Control Panel -> Possible relations)
Possibility to automatically publish/retract object’s related items/backward references via Content-Rules.
Install
Add eea.relations to your eggs and zcml section in your buildout and re-run buildout.
To use eea.relations widget for all default Plone Content-Types you’ll also need to add ‘eea.relations.default’ within zcml section like:
eggs += eea.relations zcml += eea.relations eea.relations.default
Install EEA Possible Relations within Site Setup > Add-ons
Uninstall
Backup your data.
Go to ZMI > PloneSite and remove portal_relations object.
Uninstall EEA Possible Relations within Site Setup > Add-ons
Remove eea.relations from your eggs and zcml section within your buildout and re-run buildout
Restart Zope
Getting started
Once you install the package from “Control Panel Add-ons”, the package will add an utility called “Possible relations” under “Control Panel” from where you can start define the relations, the constraints between contents etc.
