[08:56:07 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_, jhung, drupal camp toronto is scheduled for oct.15/16, sounds like montreal might try for a simulcast event, if either of you are interested let me know and i'll send more details when they are available
[08:56:54 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> jamon - that sounds interesting. i'll be honeymooning then tho (iceland!)
[08:57:05 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> but if you guys go, keep me posted
[08:57:20 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> jamon, I was interested in Drupal camp back when I was working on the OSDPL. They have some interesting workshops.
[08:57:23 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> ah that would be much more fun
[08:57:58 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> heidi_: awww. You mean Drupal Camp isn't more fun / important than Iceland?
[08:58:29 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> i'll think of you guys and drupal while swimming in hot springs
[08:58:38 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> maybe
[08:58:58 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> haha, don't heidi_
[08:59:03 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> haha
[09:28:09 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> jamon do you know much about drupal views? can i change the template?
[09:34:57 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> jhung do you know anything about views templates
[09:35:36 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: you can over ride using templates yes
[09:35:55 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> how ?
[09:36:14 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: one sec, will find one i'v edone
[09:36:23 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> not just styles... need to change title of news item to header for example
[09:36:39 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> cool thanks
[09:37:46 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> http://views-help.doc.logrus.com/help/views/using-theme
[09:38:18 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: briefly, if you have a view called foo, you'd create a views-view-type-foo.tpl.php
[09:38:33 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> where type is one of list, table, etc. that was specified when the view was created
[09:39:47 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> okay... and the vars i would put in... listed somewhere?
[09:41:20 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: that page says adding in code for the dev module will give an array of all views fields
[09:42:05 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> adding in code for the dev module...
[09:42:20 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> i'll install the module
[09:42:22 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> ah, there's a basic template
[09:42:24 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> i can use
[09:42:28 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> and modify i think
[09:43:29 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> just make sure the files go in the theme directory, not in the module
[09:43:34 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> ya
[09:43:47 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> where are the view themes stored? path?
[09:44:05 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> oh i see em
[09:44:41 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: but your changes go in themes/floe_theme/templates/
[09:44:49 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> yeah
[09:44:54 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> will copy it over to there
[09:47:34 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> man this is confusing
[09:48:03 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> heidi_: need extra eyes?
[09:48:25 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> i have to clear the theme registry or soemthing
[09:48:25 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> oh heidi_, take a look here: admin/build/views/nojs/display/news_list/default/analyze-theme
[09:48:43 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> on that page you can rebuild the registry too
[09:49:11 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: that page lists all the possible template files you can work with
[09:49:35 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> my brain hurts
[09:49:49 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> okay ill try rescan
[09:50:41 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: views is pretty advanced, but with it you can build so much functionality into a site
[09:51:27 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: here's a good tutorial: http://drupal.org/node/352970
[09:51:39 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> okay i put a views tmpl into my themes templates dir
[09:51:42 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> how do i get it to use it
[09:52:17 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> on http://dev.floeproject.org/admin/build/views/nojs/display/news_list/default/analyze-theme
[09:52:23 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> i'm not sure what to do
[09:53:16 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> it doesn't appear to be using these templates now
[09:54:22 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> or i'm not sure which one it's using now
[09:54:53 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> one second heidi_
[09:55:45 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: take a look at http://dev.floeproject.org/news now
[09:56:06 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> okay...
[09:56:14 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> i edited views-view.tpl.php to over ride, now that page shows a list of all the variable arrays you can work with in views templates
[09:56:27 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> you edited views-view.tpl where ?
[09:56:44 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> in themes/floe_theme/templates
[09:57:00 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> how did you know to call it views-view
[09:58:04 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> and how did you switch it to use that
[09:58:05 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> ah think of it hierarchically, where views-view is at the top, whereas views-view-fields would be used to override field output only
[09:58:28 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> so this will make all views look the same ?
[09:58:31 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> heidi_: you may want to look at Semantic Views module. http://drupal.org/project/semanticviews it may do what we want easily.
[09:58:52 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> i want to just affect the news views, incase we add others, right ?
[09:59:06 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> also there are two news views... front page, and full page
[09:59:40 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: in that case you'd want to edit views-view--news-list.tpl.php for only news_list view items
[10:00:19 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> heidi_: yes there are two Views related to News. One is just a block, and the other is a Page.
[10:00:37 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> ahhh
[10:00:38 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_>
[10:01:09 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> Justin_o what night of the week is soccer ?
[10:01:50 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> jamon. okay so i make views-view--news-list.tpl.php in my template dir, then what?
[10:02:23 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: then in that file, take a look at the /news url and you'll see all the views arrays that you can use in the new template
[10:02:36 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> jamon but do i have to do something to implement it
[10:02:40 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> or will it auto-override
[10:03:08 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> ah right: once you edit views-view--news-list.tpl.php, go to the information page again and hit rescan
[10:03:15 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> ok
[10:03:59 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> it's a huge amount to grok all at once, i don't understand a lot of it, mostly i stick to the pointy clicky part
[10:04:32 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> jamon i rescanned but it doesn't seem to change anything
[10:06:12 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: got it
[10:06:20 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> how?
[10:06:31 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> make sure the .tpl is a .tpl.php and then rescan, now i see "heidi was here"
[10:07:07 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> ah
[10:07:08 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> (with a nice bright error message
[10:07:20 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> why does the .php have to be added. that's weird
[10:08:56 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> i sort of like it, e.g. knowing immediately that it is a php template for the news list view
[10:09:59 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> jamon yeah but why does it need to be .tpl for views but .php for custom themes
[10:10:19 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> i guess they're all like that in custom dir
[10:10:22 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> that you'd have to ask the views developers about
[10:11:00 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_>
[10:11:08 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> okay now i also need to theme the front page view
[10:11:24 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> same thing, just rename right
[10:12:04 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: yep, take a look at admin/build/views/nojs/display/frontpage/default/analyze-theme
[10:12:22 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> views-view--frontpage.tpl.php is a good bet
[10:13:13 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> i just did News-Latest-Entry
[10:13:21 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> since that's what the view is called ?
[10:13:24 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> can it be whatever i want tho?
[10:14:18 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> heidi_: one second, working with armin on something
[10:14:39 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> no worries. i'm fine with this
[10:14:49 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> thanks jamon and jhung for da help
[10:18:57 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> heidi... sorry... forgot to add that in eh.. it's thursday nights
[10:53:36 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> heidi_: after lunch, can you walk me through what you did?
[10:54:05 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> jhung - sure. basically just made a views-view--name-of-view.tpl.php file in floe theme
[10:54:15 CDT(-0500)] <heidi_> then rescaned the theme files in the view admin for each view
[11:43:27 CDT(-0500)] <jhung> heidi_ ah, ok cool.
[11:57:33 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> jamon: there appears to be something wrong with our build site. I took a look at a couple of the demos and some of the files are getting 404 errors
[13:38:38 CDT(-0500)] <awills> any updated sense of the timing for a new Infusion release?
[13:51:48 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> awills: yes, we have a maintenance release coming out probably in two weeks and a new roadmap in the wiki for other full releases – let me grab the url
[13:53:11 CDT(-0500)] <jessm> awills: http://wiki.fluidproject.org/display/fluid/Infusion+1.3+-+1.5+Roadmap
[13:56:24 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> Justin_o: odd, will take a look, this is on titan right?
[13:56:45 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> Justin_o: can you send me a failing url?
[13:57:24 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> jamon: sure will dig it up...
[13:58:20 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> thanks
[14:00:11 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> jamon: you can try this one
[14:00:12 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> http://build.fluidproject.org/infusion/demos/inlineEdit/simple/demo.html
[14:00:45 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> i'm just going to double check running locally now too
[14:01:10 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> Justin_o: that page renders for me
[14:05:05 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> yes, but try to use all the inline edit fields
[14:11:50 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> jamon: i think it might just be a bug in our code
[14:13:29 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> Justin_o: i think that if the build completes successfully, then that seems more likely
[14:14:24 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> jamon: yep.. although i'm also getting a bunch of 404 errors.. .not too sure what that is
[14:20:09 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> Justin_o: where are those errors? i can't get the fields to actually work
[14:21:17 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> jamon: are you in, i'll go over and show you i guess... i had to look in firebug
[14:21:21 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> ok
[14:21:43 CDT(-0500)] <jamon> Justin_o: back in a few acutally
[14:22:10 CDT(-0500)] <Justin_o> okay..
