WEB GUI help?
Oh the pain, the pain….
I am working on a webgui project for work (see plainblack.com/webgui ) and I can’t really stand it. I miss Textpattern. oh the simplicity, the flexibility, the functionality!!!
If anyone knows any WEBGUI peeps out there, I am looking for a VERY SIMPLE solution:
We need to “tag” or assign “keywords” to our posts, and also be able to pull them into various places on the site via those keywords, with the ability to pull those articles with functionality similar to chh_related_articles with keywords like “africa+medical” or “africa,medical” where the difference is the specificity of AND in the first example and OR in the second example.
PLEASE HELP. There is pay involved if we find the right person.
Thank you peeps,
Matthew

Hey Matt,
Don’t know whether this would work but could you use an online bookmarking service (like ma.gnolia or de.lico.us) to tag the entries and then use their API to drag the links back into your pages? Kind of a roundabout way but it might work.

Neutrino,
ohhh yer one of those! Changing my name to matt are we? Hee hee. Just a wee pet pee Neueterino :) Jus kiddin’ (couldn’t help myself)
Actually WEB GUI has a decent way to use syndicated feeds right now, but it checks the title and body, not a set of keywords.
That’s actually a great idea Nuetrino, and bears thinking about some more. The only issue I have with it, is that over the long run its an extra step that stands a s burden to the contributors (authors), which we are trying to be cautious of in hopes of streamlining that process.
Way to keep me thinking laterally though. :)

You might try to soften the burden by talking about how it might help boost their readership to be bookmarked.

hmm. Not a bad idea there either. Man, you’re full of em. Nice.
Maybe I’ll do a test run. I haven’t looked at the API’s of delicious for drawing feeds into certain areas of a site, is that something that requires some programming ability?
Thanks fer your help Neutrino.

Actually, I think you can just use a bit of javascript to add the links to your page. Check this out
Edit: wrong link
This one is for adding an add to de.licio.us link to the site
