Forum OpenACS Development: New Version of wp-slim

Collapse
Posted by Miguel Marin on
Hi everyone:

I would like to announce the release of the new version of wp-slim 5.2.1d.
This version was modified to use ad_form and html area, due to the fact that you can only use one html area per page, it is used when you edit the preamble and postamble independently, it means that when you edit the preamble,it allows you to use html area and the postamble area is just a textarea.

If you have any comment,suggestion or complaint =), please let me know. my email address is mailto:miguelmarin@viaro.net

Cheers
Miguel Marin

Hi Miguel,

good news about wp-slim enhancements.

Recently i am start to thinking about integrate serving slides from wp-slim with s5 presentations from Eric Meyer - http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/tools/s5/.

From Meyers' website:

"S5 is a slide show format based entirely on XHTML, CSS, and JavaScript. With one file, you can run a complete slide show and have a printer-friendly version as well. The markup used for the slides is very simple, highly semantic, and completely accessible. Anyone with even a smidgen of familiarity with HTML or XHTML can look at the markup and figure out how to adapt it to their particular needs. Anyone familiar with CSS can create their own slide show theme. It's totally simple, and it's totally standards-driven."

I just did some work in a live installation we are building on openacs-5-1 (so using wp-slim from openacs-5-1-compat) and this is what i get untill now:

- presentation with wp-slim slide-by-slide (just using some css)
http://www.intertexto.info:8000/slides/display/24319/

- same presentation with wp-slim all slides on one page and using s5 minimal structure:

http://www.intertexto.info:8000/slides/presentation-s5-view?item_id=24319

(i dont know about what presentation should display in others browsers than mozilla and firefox... still just trying not testing)

Any plans to work with this kind of feature in wp-slim on HEAD or is it already in your new version?
