[Ann]Site Launch with Radiant

Ruby Apps Radiant CMS
1

It has actually been online since January, but had some teething
problems, but I thought it was time to announce a little site I did
for a friend. It is something a bit different from a blog, but lately
has merely been hosting his Video Blogs.

Right now, we are running Mental with a homebrew Assets plugin (far
from finished) and a really hacked together tagging system.

Please take a look and let us know what you think.

Hi Keith,

I haven’t seen the site yet due to the problems you mentioned however
I’d be
interested in what level of tag integration you managed to achieve. It’s
high on my to-do list to getting a tagging extension put together but
I’ve
noticed that others have had issues with naming conflicts and such - did
you
run into any trouble spots?

Thanks,
Kevin

And they are upgrading (I hope) my server, so I picked a really
stupid day to tell you all about it. It should be up within the hour…

I tried to do a tagging extension late last year with the
acts_as_taggable plugin. I think I am one of those people you may
have heard about with naming conflicts. Basically, you cannot use the
model name Tag, as it disables the Radius tagging system and you site
will not render. I got around this by making my own Model, Metatag
and didn’t use the act_as_taggable plugin. I essentially took the
tagging system from Mephisto and rewrote bits of it for my own uses.
I think I am going to switch it over to the new :has_many_polymorphs
plugin. The whole thing is not ready for prime time, but it is
promising.

I hope to have an svn version available soon.
