Hi, I installed Slash for the first time yesterday on Max OS X, and have it running quite succesfully. I have a few beginnner admin questions: o How can I delete a slash site user? o How can I delete a slash site? o How can I change the admin email address of a site (the address that is used to send email, etc.) Thanks in advance, Antoine -- Antoine Quint <aq...@fu...> W3C SVG Working Group Invited Expert SVG Consulting and Outsourcing http://www.svg.org/blogs/graouts/ |

Basically you never delete a user because he may have posted some comment and you would leave a "hole" in the information. You can block him using users.pl when you're an administrator. Obviously you may wish to delete it if it's an user created by mistake. > o How can I delete a slash site? You can remove it from /usr/local/slash/slash.sites You should also check your installed DBIx::Password (in /usr/.../site_perl/.../DBIx/Password.pm or similar) to remove the access string for that particular site, and/or remove the database. > o How can I change the admin email address of a site (the address that > is used to send email, etc.) mailfrom in http://www.yoursite.com/admin.pl?op=vars -- Alessio Bragadini <al...@se...> Sevenseas.org Hacking Community |

I would do it from the unix command line: $ perl -MSlash::Test=3Dsitevirtuser -le 'print $slashdb->deleteUser(12345)' That method is never actually used in the code, we don't have a web interface for it, but it implements our "preferred" method of deleting a user. > Basically you never delete a user because he may have posted > some comment and you would leave a "hole" in the information.

This one's in the INSTALL file (at the end, "UNINSTALLING"). --=20 Jamie McCarthy http://mccarthy.vg/ ja...@mc... |

Restart the db? Restart httpd? Slash didn't pick up the change dynamically, so I wonder what needs to be done to have it applied generally. In this case, I just restarted everything and sure enough everything was back in sync, but I'm sure there is a better scheme.

Easiest way, that I've found: 1. shutdown apache and slashd. 2. edit /usr/local/slash/slash.sites take out the line for the site 3. edit /usr/local/slash/httpd/slash.conf take out the include line for the site's config > o How can I change the admin email address of a site (the address that > is used to send email, etc.) Alessio already answered that one. |
