actions

Hi,

After a lot of trial and error I had to scrap the use of the Revisioning module as it simply made things for the authors/moderators to complex to usable, but also created a lot of not so nice side effects for other content as mentioned here. Plus when cleaning up after it I got a total WSOD and 404 on every page, took me hours to get the site back...

Hi,

I have almost completed my workflow, only one tiny piece is missing.

My workflow have three stages; Edit, Review and Publish.

I don't want normal users to see the workflow tab, but I want to set an action when the author saves it in Edit or Review stage. What I can't figure out is how to automatically move a node from Edit stage to Review and in Review send a new email should be sent out when the author saves it.

I'm currently planning the rule based custom logging module, which I'm going to write after rules 1.0 is out. I post this to the activity group too, because I think there is quite a overlap to 2.x version, which is currently under development.

Note: My proposal has evolved to include a detailed schedule, glossary, and long brief about the reasons why my methodology is at least different, if not better than the existing ones. I have moved the content from this single page to the Package Management project page. The project home page links to the SoC Proposal with the schedule.

I am not a developer, but looking for opinions on the best way to approach this to guide my team... It revolves around workflow, triggers, actions and maybe some rules.

A content type (call it bid) can be created with a nodereference to another content type (call it RFP)

The workflow has been created with the following steps:
(creation) - can be created by anyone with a vendor role(and some other "pre-qualifications") (done by workflow fields)
draft - Only Author can edit (done by workflow fields)
Submit - Only Author can edit (done by workflow fields)

I am building a site that is in need of a publishing workflow that needs to be able to revoke editing of posts after a certain transition occurs. A few ideas seem like they could work. The one that seems relatively easy to implement I will outline here.

Drupal Version:
6.x

Modules used:
Workflow
Actions/Trigger
CCK

Possible method:

I must confess I am totally confused by workflow. I'm still working in D5 (waiting for modules to be upgrade to D6 so I can upgrade), and would like to set some simple workflows in place. Two examples:

Hi Experts,

I am an experienced PHP programmer but a litter bit new to Drupal.

I have created a new content type and set a trigger for a new post, but I don't know where to place the action scripts so that the trigger could be automatically handled. This content type is pretty simple, so I guess it may not be worth to write a module. I am not sure it's a normal way to deal with triggers and actions. Hope you experts could give me some hints, and any suggestions are welcomed. Thanks!

BTW, I'm using Drupal 6.4.

Cheers,
Steve

The imagecache module is awesome now but it has only 3 actions: scale, resize and crop. My proposal for SoC is use imagecache 2.0 and the hook_imagecache_action (http://www.darrelopry.com/story/imagecache-2x-beta) to create new actions like:

• Watermark
• Rounded corners
• Borders
• Insert text
• Insert image
• Rotate
• And so on

There are a lot of new possible actions, you can go to imagemagick options for more action examples: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/command-line-options.php
