Publishing problem

Sun, 06 Mar 2011 22:49:27 -0800

I'm changing hosts and from windows platform to linux, which I don't is what causing the publishing problem I've been having. All publishing rules publish one by one without any errors but when I try to re-save a category, even a cateogy with very few articles I get a "server timed out" error message. Same happens when I try to publish the article pages via it's publishing rules. Individual articles can be -re-saved with no errors. Thinking that this was caused by low server resources I upgrades to a higher VPS and still cannot republish categories. Anyone other there who sees what I'm completely missing for the past two days?

Thanks,

Fariba

You've probably figured that out by now, Just in case you haven't, all artman .shtml files are constructed with template files. editing .shtml files in the publish directory will have a temporary effect since once an article is added those files will be reconstructed based on a given template.
Look in the server's cgi-bin directory for those templates. Hopefully .shtm files have a comment statement identifying it's template.

Hope this was helpful.

seeking a sql statement to query article table date field

Thu, 10 Sep 2009 17:03:49 -0700

I'm trying to query articles posted for the past 30 days. I'm using the following but it returns the entire table, as if I have specified nothing.

select * from am_article where date >= DATE_SUB(curdate(),INTERVAL 30 day)

Any suggestions?
I know that I can use the search.pl to do this but this is a part of a more extensive query.

Thank you

Re: [Jake] Make a description for your category index page

Wed, 15 Apr 2009 14:20:20 -0700

I have created a category description fields in the category table, with a datatype of "Memo". Unlike memo fields in the article table, the category table memo fields do not have an in dept option such as field height or Editor type. As a result, when editing a category, you are left with a small input box to enter the description. I use dreamweaver to compose what I want to appear for description and paste the tags into the little box. It works, but my users are not comfortable with it.

I have been searching for the same; a way to list sub-categories for a selected category. For instance, on the categoryindex page for a certain cat, I'd like to display the related subcategory names above the article title.

Re: [Donna] Printer page

I'm upgrading a site with over 32,000 articles which was set up under 1.4 to publish all articles in the directory i.e no category subdirectories. I cannot change that because other sites have links to our articles and I need to keep it as is. With that said, accessing the the directory is not only time consuming but it also takes server resources. Now can I ask you why you would not recommend using the search engine to compose the printer pages and how do you do that anyway?

Printer page

Thu, 26 Feb 2009 11:34:01 -0800

I'd like to do away from having article print pages created and be able to have the printer friendly page created on demand. You had a similar script for archived articles in artman 1.4 where archived articles were generated on demand. Is there a script that could do the same for printer pages

Re: [gleaman] Do not publish Category link to home page

Under AdminMenu/Publishing, select the same rule that you excluded those categories from (i.e. Global Index) and then . At the very end of the page you'll see a dropdown menu with Press . That will duplicate the rule and name it as "Copy of global...". Rename it to whatever, then under Category Filter include those categories you excluded in the GlobaIndex rule. This will exclude those article from your Global index -- front page" but have them accessible through their own category page.

Hope this is helpful,

Re: [Donna] 1.4 to 2.16 upgrade

Donna,

I suppose I tried to explain too much about what I'm trying to do and may not have been clear about it[crazy]. At anycase, could you please explain what causes that error in the scrip.

Thank you,

I've done the same thing with some of my categories. Under "Global Index" publishing rule, exclude those categories under "Category Filter". You need to creat another publishing rule for the excluded categories though or they will not be published at all.

1.4 to 2.16 upgrade

Mon, 01 Dec 2008 09:30:23 -0800

I'm in the process of upgrading from 1.4 to 2.16. The installation and data tranfer into mysql has gone pretty well. I'm using Artman2 for schema and am2_ for table prefix. While creating new publishingrules in the test environment I realized that when it comes time to do the actual migration, new publishng rules may be over written by the upgrade scrip. Testing, I found that to be true. One solution would be to creat new rules and back them up. I'd like to migrate onto a new set of tables leaving the data in test intact. Using the database administrator and "create new tables" I used am21_ table prefix to creat the new set of tables, but came up with the following error, What does it meanError: unknown field type ''! at D:/websites/.com/cgi-bin/artman2/modules//IT/DB/Common.pm line 775.

Re: [Jake] Each time an article is added AM2 publishes all?

Jake,

Is there a way to have "publish all" to run as a scheduled task under window 2000 server? I haven't looked yet, but is there a specific script for running publishing rules.

I'm not sure what you mean by disabling category publishing rules until ready to add content to the site. Isn't adding an article considered adding content?

I have over 30k articles and about 20 people who add articles everyday. So far --still on artman 4.1-- they've been pretty self sufficient. The dynamics of my site depends on fast and easy publishing. Right now it takes about 10 minutes to publish one article on the 2.1 test environment.
