Open Atrium

We encourage users to post events happening in the community to the community events group on https://www.drupal.org.
This group should probably have more organizers. See documentation on this recommendation.

This group is to relate experiences with Open Atrium and share ideas about this install profile along with understanding and leveraging Spaces, Features, and Contexts for making it work better for you.

Talk with other community members here, in the issue queue on Community.OpenAtrium.com and on IRC in the #open_atrium channel on freenode.net.

If you're just getting started, you might find the documentation pages useful.

Migration from Open Atrium 1 to Open Atrium 2

Hello everyone, I'm working in a University running Open Atrium 1 as the intranet platform for the college, we are planning to migrate from Open Atrium 1 to Open Atrium 2. our main concern is that is it possible to migrate the users, posts (with linked contents) and ideally pages (notebooks) ? what are the possible methods to achieve that, we are willing to try any method or whether there is a plug-in to achieve this task.

Thank you in advance for your support.

Populating OA Group from Active Directory

I'm trying to populate an OA Group from Active Directory, but haven't been able get it to work yet - I'd like the members of the OA group to feed through directly from a group in AD. I can create a new group in OA, but no matter what I put in the LDAP members field (e.g. the name of one of our AD groups, an individual AD username or full LDAP paths) I get a message saying 'LDAP entry does not exist'.

The site is successfully authenticating against AD and we have installed and enabled the Open Atrium LDAP module.

Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong?

PHP5 Strict Warning on Display of News Section

I have recently installed OA 7.x-2.15 under OpenSuse 13.1 running under Apache 2.4.6 with PHP 5.4.20 and MariaDB 5.5.33. When I setup my first news section on the front page as a test during my attempt to learn how to use OA and then jump to that URL, I get the following warning twice at the top of my screen:

Strict warning: Only variables should be passed by reference in ctools_entity_from_field_context() (line 179 of /srv/www/htdocs/oa/profiles/openatrium/modules/contrib/ctools/plugins/relationships/entity_from_field.inc).

Creating books in OA2

Is there a way to turn on the book module and have the links display at the bottom of each page? I installed Book Made Simple and selected Document page in the News sections to be available for books but I'm not seeing the back/forward links at the bottom. I'm assuming it's because the page is panellized but all of this is fairly new to me so not sure which direction to start searching.

Thanks,
Chikara Mike

Matrix Organization in OA?

I am working on a site that needs to be organized as a matrix. Most articles need to be accessible under several search criteria. Most articles will fall under multiple groups/tags/etc:

Materials
Equipment
Process

Each of these broad categories will have 10-12 sub-categories, so that a given article may be relevant to:

Material #2
Equipment #7
Process #9

Many features overriden out of the box

I cross posted this in the OA issue queue already but no response yet. I've got a number of similar questions and will be sure to post here first in the future.

I'm attempting to grasp the OA/Panopoly architecture so that I can be aware of overriding code and using Features Override to manage it, but it's turning into a quagmire because so much is already overridden out of the box for unknown reasons.

Why no OpenAtrium.com discussion area?

Hi,

There doesn't seem to be an OA discussion area on OpenAtrium.com. This group doesn't appear to have much help available either. For general discussion and support requests I'm loathe to clog up the D.O issue queue, so I'm hoping Phase2 will start a discussion section on OA.com.

Tnx,

Jeff

Can't change Test Content to normal content?

I think the Sandbox feature is brilliant. I'm using it now, but there is some content that I've decided works just fine, so when I edited the content, I de-selected the Test Content checkbox and saved.

But when I edit the content again, I see that the checkbox is checked again. I presume that, upon turning off Sandbox Mode, that particular content will be deleted, even though I de-selected the checkbox, yes?

Is there no way to turn test content into real content?

Thanks,
~Dogtag

Spaces with Members from Groups Become Children?

I created a Private, top-level Space (no parents) and I created a Group. I assigned the group to the space so that members of the Group would have access to the Space. When I view the Space via the Edit button, I see that the Space is now a Child of the Group?

What's happening here and how does this affect permissions that I've set?

Does anyone know how I need to set up both the Group and the Space so that Space permissions override group permissions?

Thanks,
~Dogtag

Create a departments section that only allows department sub sections

I am trying to create an intranet - it will all be one space, with various sections. I want to have a departments landing page (a section) that will have individual department pages (sections) under it.

I would ideally like to have the "+" (plus) button on the menu (on the departments landing page) to only allow a "Add Department" option to make it really intuitive for the editor.

Is this possible? I have been able to modify the section taxonomy to control the allowed children of sections, but can't get this to work as described above.

Thanks!
Doug
