OpenEdit

 I'm pleased to announce another new site built on the platform that's a great example of openedit-cart - it's a major automotive site called fixedopshop.com.   We may port this over to entermedia at some point too!

Dear All, I am new to this tool. I am working on one website. Now i got one challenge on that. I have to set the meta tags at the time of opening the default layout. Please help me in this. Regards, Srini.

I was redirected to this site when I tried to contact the designers of www.slamdance.com , is this the forum where I can find how to get in contact with them?  

I am trying to upgrade all the jars in the starter war.. I am using openedit-dev, and openedit-editor-dev jars which were pulled from anthill as source and compiled locally. Then I downloaded from Anthill, the prebuild jars from cart, search ... [More] , money. When I try to navigate to my cart, I get an exception "Could not find bean named StoreDataReader" Which package does this exist in ? I tried to compile cart and search, but there seems to be a lot of unresolved dependencies.. Any suggestions on how build those projects... What does the money package do, and why is there no source code.. Thank you John Gentilin [Less]

I wanted to be able to step through source to get a handle on what OE is doing, so I downloaded the starter ROOT then grabbed the latest oe-core from Anthill and replaces the openedit-5.979.jar with the openedit-dev.jar that was produced in the ... [More] deploy directory.. This is running under Tomcat 6.0.20 When I launched tomcat, the root app stopped working, here is what I was able to dig up.. In GeneratedResourceLoader.getPageManager, it returns a null engine for getApplicationAttribute which causes a NPE to be thrown. but I think the real problem is,  that VelocityGenerator.setOpenEditEngine is not called before VelocityGenerator.init() which sets the Velocity property. Since it was not called prior, the value stored in the properties is null.. Odd thing is, in Anthil, there is a different project called oesandbox, which the newly built dev jar works fine. I would continue with oesandbox, but the HTML code generation seems off, the popup overlay for the edit controls are always expanded and exist on the same z layer as the page and I after I went to layout mode, I lost the OE toolbar and was not able to determine how to get it back..

Release notes for EnterMedia Media Asset Management March 12, 2010 - EnterMedia 6.706 New Video Player EnterMedia is now using FlowPlayer (flowplayer.org) to better support previewing of video assets. If you upload a video, EnterMedia will ... [More] now generate: 1. A series of still thumbnails to be displayed on results pages. If you hover your mouse over the thumbnail of a video, it will begin to cycle through this series of still images. 2. A flash version of the video for previewing. By clicking on the thumbnail you will be taken to the Media Viewer page where you will be able to watch the entire flash version of the video! 3. Ability to import from YouTube or external URL to an asset or video file   Note: Generating thumbs and flash versions of videos requires ffmpeg (ffmpeg.org) to be installed and configured correctly to work with EnterMedia. For more information on this, see our installation instructions here: http://entermediasoftware.com/docs/ApendixA/index.html User Interface The application has a new nicer looking header and easier navigation. In an effort to simplify our results page, we have removed all of the icons displayed under thumbnails. This gives a cleaner appearance and allows us to fit more thumbnails on a single results page. All of the actions that were previously available via icons below thumbnails are not available on the Media Viewer page, which is accessed by clicking on any thumbnail. We also changed our image hover functionality. Previously the enlarged hover image would follow your mouse around until your pointer left the thumbnail. Apparently people found this irritating, so we changed it! The hover will now stay centered above the thumbnail and shows the item name and selection groups. For anyone who is still annoyed by the image hover functionality, you can set your preferred view to "Gallery-No Hover". See "View Settings" below for information on setting your view preferences. Security Improvements Catalogs now has asset and folder level security enabled by default. Also improved the security editor on the catalog settings page. Collections Assets can now be added to groups of collections. A collection gives you a way to show off your best or most recent assets. View Settings We also removed the hits-per-page, view, and sorting dropdowns from the results header. These settings are now accessible from the "view" button in the results header. This button will give you a pop-up which allows you to set your results view preferences based on the type of results you are seeing: Category (browsing), Search, Album, or Selection. Selecting Improvements The new clipboard groups are designed to help users sort their media. Once you have added a group of similar items into a clipboard group, you can then categorize or keyword all of those items at once using multi-edit, or you can add the items to a posting to share it with your friends. We have tried to make these clipboard a little easier to use so that everyone can take full advantage of their capabilities. To that end, we have added Drag and Drop functionality! From a results page, you can now drag and drop a thumbnail into a clipboard group box to add that item. You can also add a single item to a selection group using the check boxes that appear in the hover image, or you can add an entire page of results to a selection group by clicking the "Clipboards" button in the results header. Share with Facebook We have added a button on the Media Viewer page that will share an item with Facebook! Voting From the MediaViewer page, you can now click the star button to indicate that you like that photo/video/whatever. You can even see a list of other users who like a given item. New Uploader We have a new, fancier-than-ever upload applet. You can now upload multiple items, or even an entire folder, all at once. EnterMedia will immediately create assets for each item being uploaded, allowing you to begin sorting or editing the meta-data associated with your uploads. You will see an indicator in the top-right corner showing your current uploads. You can click on this indicator to see the progress of your current uploads. Thumbnails will be created for your new assets as the uploads complete. (You will need to be navigating around the site, or at least refreshing your page before you will actually see the images.)

I am using Tomcat 6.0.20 and for the life of me I can't change the log level from INFO to DEBUG. Trying to debug the starter ROOT.war with a current openedit.jar, I am finding that its throwing a NPW when trying to init the VelocityEngine, and I am hoping that Velocity will emit more info for debug logging.   Thanks John Gentilin

I have some version confusion going on.. 

I started out with the starter ROOT.war which contained version 5.979 of the OE core jar. Anthill has version 5.1292 which seemed odd, but I downloaded it, compiled the jar and replaced OE 5.979 with ... [More] openedit-dev (5.1292). When Tomcat started the ROOT servlet crashed with the exception below. (Log#1)

Later downloaded  the OESandbox war from AntHill which contained OE 5.1212. That seemed to work, then I replace the 5.1212 version of the OE jar with version I compiled of 5.1292.. That also seemed to work. Since all my test edits were in the original ROOT webapp,  I replace the lib dir in the ROOT webapp with the lib dir from the OESandbox dir.  It still threw the exceptions (Log#2) but it is different, because now it is complaining about the admin toolbar generator.. 

Any ideas ? 
I also tried to use the oesite.war that was produced as part of the build. When I went to http://localhost:8080/oesite/ it returned an odd plain/text page. The Sandbox build looks very interesting with things like struts bindings,  but it also seem a bit too much to consume as a first project. Logs attached as comments to this post.. 


Thank you John Gentilin

I stumbled upon OE today and it looks great.. For my needs, I would like the sub directories to define the main site look and feel having the pages in the base dir to be like subcomponents. I made an e-commerce, then copied the top level ... [More] _site.conf, index.html and links.xml to the my site subdir, now that site seems to be a bit messed up. Can OpenEdit handle this ??   What's the Unlocker code in the bin directory ?? Thank You John Gentilin   [Less]
