Hi guys,

For some reason this problem has cropped up again. I've just added 6 pages to the sitemap for my site and they've been added to all 17 editor accounts.

Can someone switch the feature back on?

Thanks.

I know, I know, why would anyone want to use MS Publisher? Sadly some of my users do, but Simple bounces it back as an invalid file extension when they try to upload it. As far as I'm concerned, that's just a sign of good taste. But they don't feel the same way.

Can .pub be added to the system?

Cheers, guys.

Yeah, that works great.

Thanks, Simon :)

Hi guys

I'm having problems uploading .docx files, as I just get the message "invalid file extension".

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

Thanks, Gavin, that works fine now.

Hi guys

I've currently got about a dozen users on my site, all with a separate set of pages assigned to their accounts. But when any one of them creates a new page, this page is then added to every users' account, rather than just the account of the user who created it.

Is there a way to resolve this? At the moment, I go round and remove the permission from each account separately, but this is only going to get more and more difficult as more and more users add their own pages.

Thanks.

Hi

I can see two problems.

If you look at the source code, you've got

<!--<a href="http://www.mangiagio.com/contenteditor_files/deli_2011.pdf">http://www.mangiagio.com/contenteditor_files/deli_2011.pdf<br />
    </a></p>-->

The  <!-- and --> in HTML are used to indicate that whatever is between those two should be read as a comment. http://htmlhelp.com/reference/wilbur/misc/comment.html explains this in more detail.

What this means is that your code does not appear when you view the page in your web-browser, as the browser thinks this is just a comment to be read by someone looking at the code.

If you remove <!-- and --> from your code, then the link appears in a browser like this:

http://www.mangiagio.com/contenteditor_ … i_2011.pdf

The second issue is that the pdf the link points to doesn't exist in the location you've said.

Hope this helps.

Hi guys,

I have been using simplecms to allow one of my users to edit an xml file that we use for rss. It was working fine - clicking the code button to allow him to add in a new item - but for some reason it's stopped working. And it doesn't work for me either, anymore.

Any ideas?

Keep up the good work.

Ah. Right, that makes sense. All I need to do now is train my clients.

Thanks, Simon.

OK, Gavin, I'll look forward to that.

Any idea if this is in the pipeline?

860 paying subscribers, increasing at a rate of about 25 per month would be my guess. Of course, the answer will be different now to what it was when this thread started four weeks ago.

I'm in a similar position with uploading pdfs and docs, which a lot of my users use for posting notices, application forms, etc. Currently these all go in one default files folder. Any chance of being able to define a different folder for each user?

Thanks guys.

For more on this, have a look at this in the tutorial section:

I can help you with this one. If you create an xml file of the pages you want to be listed under the sitemap tab, then go to sites/update remove/ site settings, all you need to do is identify the location of the xml file and the rest will work fine. The xml file just needs to list the pages you want on your site map. I don't know if you want to list every page on your site or just some, I guess it depends on the size of your site.

If you want a shortcut to creating the xml file, this site will do it for you:

Yes, I get your point about the simplified xml - that makes a lot of sense.

Thanks for the suggestion, Gavin.

Congrats on the xml site map feature, which works really well. Is it possible to add a feature to the Restrict pages page so that I can make all the pages restricted and then select which ones a user can edit; with a site with  several hundred pages where each user only needs access to five or six files, you end up having to restrict a lot of pages individually.

Thanks.

Any chance of adding a named anchor button? My users get distressed when I suggest that they can insert a line of html code without the sky falling in on their heads.

Hi Gavin,

I like this feature, but for some reason not all the pages tagged to be edited in SimpleCMS on my site come up on the restrict pages list. It stops at 37. Is there a pre-determined limit? I can still access the pages
