Installation
To install raptus.article.default into your Plone instance, locate the file buildout.cfg in the root of your Plone instance directory on the file system, and open it in a text editor.
Add the actual raptus.article.default add-on to the “eggs” section of buildout.cfg. Look for the section that looks like this:
eggs = Plone
This section might have additional lines if you have other add-ons already installed. Just add the raptus.article.default on a separate line, like this:
eggs = Plone raptus.article.core
Next step is to add the zcml files to the “zcml” section of buildout.cfg. Look for the section that looks like this:
eggs = Plone
This section might have additional lines if you have other zmcl’s already installed. Just add the raptus.article.default* on separate lines, like this:
eggs = Plone raptus.article.default raptus.article.default-overrides
Note that there are two zcml files you have to register. This because any of these register to different times, which is necassary for the product.
Once you have added these lines to your configuration file it is time to run buildout so the system can add and set up raptus.article.default for you. Go to the command line, and from the root of your Plone instance (same directory as buildout.cfg is located in), run buildout like this:
$ bin/buildout
If everything went according to plan you now have raptus.article.default installed in your Zope instance.
Next, start up Zope, e.g with:
$ bin/instance fg
Next go to the “Add-ons” control panel in Plone as an administrator and install the “raptus.article.default” product. You should then be able to add a new content type called Article.
Usage
1.) Add a new Article (Page) from the “Add new” menu.
Provide a title for the new article.
