OpenPublish

I'm experimenting with a top story carousel using the views carousel module. I can display a published article's headline, but the main image won't appear. What is the correct setting for the image to appear in the views carousel? Thanks.

I'm planning to use the featured front page region for a story carousel, using the Dynamic Display Block module. However, currently, the region covers only the left column - I'd like it to cover both the left and middle column, with the remainder of stories below. How do I span the featured front page region across both left and middle column?

I created a small application for a local fortnightly using Ruby on Rails. I want to test out OpenPublish because of the better admin interface and out of the box features meant especially for online publishing. Can anyone suggest me ways to importy my model data from Rails into my OpenPublish install, whether any Drupal plugin or module exists to make my task easier.

Thanks.

My feed item(s) view, per the preview function:

...versus the actual result as produced in production:

It doesn't appear the CSS is obfuscating the layout. Clues?

Thanks,

I am creating a OpenPublish 2.2 sub-theme and have a views carousel on the front page for featured articles.

When I set the default theme to be the OpenPublish Theme the carousel renders fine. But when I use my sub-theme I get a brief flash of what I would see if JavaScript were turned off in my browser before I see the items rendered in the carousel. The page is rendered correctly in the end.

This seems to be a FOUC (Flash Of Unstyled Content) created by making an OP sub-theme, and it does not seem to be due to the use of a Views carousel, per se.

Teaser-Issues have been discussed quite often in this forum ([http://groups.drupal.org/node/95109]). But I still don’t know how to activate the teaser-field for articles in OP 2.3. In the standard OP configuration the teaser is only set for the frontpage. But I would like to display the teaser in the article too.

For this purpose I think I will have to change the following lines in the node-article.tpl.php:

Having the teaser-text in the articles would be great, especially for printing.

How are people handling posting to Twitter? It seems after the requirement for Oauth, the ability to post to Twitter has become a royal mess. At each step for authorization (adding my Twitter account in user or setting up the Twitter action) I get a failure of authentication. I've followed several tutorials, but they all fail at the oauth authorization. Any help??

I have several feeds which create articles. I have a view which looks at the article author and determines whether to display. For instance, if the author is "Pets", it is not displayed. This allows me to review incoming feeds for the articles I want to publish. However, when the feed is created the author is assigned to me, causing every article in every feed to display immediately.

The only way I've found to stop this is to create an actual user, then set the feed's author to that user. I can create a virtual author. How can I avoid creating dozens of actual users? Thanks.

Hi,

I installed the latest version (OpenPublish-2.3RC1-Build375) on a server, disabled calais, and started workin in the instal to give it a try. I have a problem because the uploaded node images are not showing (the site seems to be looking for them on a folder that does not exist) and the feeds are also lost, i get the list of feeds but when i click on any of them, the file is not found. Is there extra configuration that has to be done in order for them to work?

We're working in making a multisite starting with openpublish to create instances.
