RE: [Bodington-developers] i18n Guide? and Admin Zones?

[Andrew B. <a.g...@le...>]

Some time ago we took the attitude that the zones were a bit of a =
nuisance
and we have modified the code to get rid of the enforced username prefix
when creating users.  That's certainly the case locally, but I don't =
know if
it got onto HEAD.

I would be very unhappy if zone prefix enforcement comes back.

So go ahead and set it up for your client, but I think we need a vote =
before
anything more about zones goes into HEAD.

| Probably a question for Alistair so if no one else can help I'll =

| I have a (potential) client who will be setting up bilingual
| English/Spanish teaching resources and whose staff are mostly =
bilingual.
| They probably lack technical expertise in things like XML files etc. =
but
| will be more than capable of translating educational terminology etc.
| So, is there a idiot's guide to using Alistair's localisation features
| for Bodington?

You may be disappointed at the number of internationalised templates!

| 2)
| Another requirement of this client is to be able to quickly and easily
| set up new buildings each with its own administrative zone. At present
| creating administrative zones is something that involves bringing
| Bodington down and running a script of some sort on the database. So, =
to
| make life easier for my client (and anyone else who wants to host a
| shared Bodington installation for multiple clients) I'm thinking of
| adding zone management functionality. Adding a zone would create the
| zone itself and a set of groups in the same way as the Bodington
| installation code but doing it at runtime.

See no reason why not from our point of view, although we don't really =
use
zones.=20

You know we have some code for administrators which I don't think is in =
head
yet - Matthew has the details - but there's nowt to do with zones.=20

The one thing we didn't get done is a simple form-based 'create one =
user'
page; so that would be warmly received!=20

| So, can I check that people are O.K. with this plan? The idea would be
| to add a create zone link to the manage page of floors, suites, plain
| rooms which is visible only with sysadmin access. The create zone
| template would simply ask for a zone prefix and zone name and would =
then
| create the zone and create group structures at the location where the
| user invoked the functionality.
|=20
| Does this seems alright? Is anyone already working on something =
similar?
