ftw.noticeboard 1.1.3

Usage

ftw.noticebaord comes with a predefined and ready to work with workflow:

• All Authenticated users can add new Notices in Notice Categories.

• Admins (Site Administrator / Manager) can manage the Board itself, the Categories and all Notices.

• It’s possible to create multiple Boards per Plone Site

Once you installed the package and applied the profile (see install section) you can add a new Board in the Plone root. You can make it addable wherever you wish to though. After adding some categories the Board is ready to use. As soon as people are authenticated they are also authorized to use the Board.

Features

• New DX based content types:

  • NoticeBoard (Container for Categories)

  • NoticeCategory (Container for Notices)

  • Notice

  • NoticeImage (Custom Image DX Type - This way we can control the add permission)

• Views:

  • Noticeboard Overview which all Categories and Notices for a Category can be shown via toggle.

  • Noticeboard Overview is implemented according to https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices/examples/accordion/accordion.html

  • Notice detail view, which shows images in a slider using ftw.slider

  • My notices view shows all my notices regardless if they are expired or not

• General:

  • Using collective.quickupload Upload Portlet on Notice view for multipload of images.

  • Using a customized IPublication behavior to define how long the Notice should be active.

  • “Terms and conditions” can be defined per Category. The User needs to accept them in order to create a new Notice.

Theming
