last_modified: [datetime] the date when this resource's data was last modified (NB: not the date when the metadata was modified).

For example:

name and title should have a higher weight than the notes field

#1108: Create a more modern theme for CKAN

pudo — Tue, 26 Apr 2011 15:13:10 GMT

CKAN looks a bit aged, it should be styled more modernly and some elements could be re-arranged:

Collect user info in top bar
re-add the logo to ckan.net
Remove tags from main menu, replace with /sitemap.xml

Inpiration:

quora.com, github.com, Google Projects, Google Refine, etc.

CKAN.net or CKAN general theme?

To be decided. Suggest we start with ckan.net specific and then backwards integrate (?). Existing ckan.net theme repo:

#1301: Give access to extensions from the old formalchemy controllers

amercader — Thu, 01 Sep 2011 13:14:48 GMT

This was removed during the auth refactoring, but it's needed in the old controllers

#1307: Implement captcha for signup

rgrp — Sun, 04 Sep 2011 16:31:00 GMT

Major issue with spam signup on thedatahub.org
Suggest using recaptcha

Est cost: 1d

#1296: Improved resource adding/editing on dataset/page page

rgrp — Sat, 27 Aug 2011 00:48:13 GMT

Subticket of #1294.

Nice way to edit all resource attributes
Nice way to add new resources
- Including file upload (cf #878).
  - Cf work in ckanjs (this can be a straight integration).

#1297: In-place preview of edited description markdown on edit dataset form

rgrp — Sat, 27 Aug 2011 00:49:43 GMT

Subticket of #1294.

Can integrate from working system on ckanjs.

#878: Integrate file upload with workflow around package resources

rgrp — Mon, 20 Dec 2010 18:04:29 GMT

Create/edit a package -> add a resource -> Oh, i haven't uploaded yet, 'upload here' -> /upload -> standard upload form

Do we need to create a resource out of the file after upload? Do we sync file metadata with local Resource metadata?

If yes suggests (need to ticket):

'ResourceExtras?' for extra metadata on resources
Makes 'Resource' into first class object (and make available in WUI)?

Depends

#877 (Upload in WUI) - should be part of that extension

#1309: Registering new user requires immediate login

zephod — Mon, 05 Sep 2011 12:25:10 GMT

Registering a new user directs you to that user's profile page but does not log you in. There is an empty set of "Recent changes" and no ability to modify the page. Users must follow the login link in the top-right corner to continue.

Registering a new user should immediately log you in.

#1293: Rename Package to Dataset throughout WUI, API

rgrp — Sat, 27 Aug 2011 00:41:40 GMT

Changes

All templates
[DONE] Routing: /package/ -> /dataset/ (including API)
[DONE] Tests: self.app.get('/dataset/...') rather than package ...
- One test to check redirect works?
Docs

Leave

Stay with Package in code e.g. stay with 'PackageController?'
- also leave stuff like pkg = .... (gradual migration)
Leave extensions

Notes

Package -> Dataset
Data Package -> Dataset
respect capitalization

#1304: Show more descriptive error messages when sending emails

amercader — Thu, 01 Sep 2011 16:06:46 GMT

Sending emails is failing in some cases, and the error message just says 'Could not send reset link'.

#1295: Simplify package create form

rgrp — Sat, 27 Aug 2011 00:46:54 GMT

Sub ticket of #1294

Initial screen just title, name, description (notes), license (and tags?).
State that you can add data and more information on next screen. This takes you to Package 'view' where you can then do more stuff.
- Flash some instructions? e.g. that resources are missing?
Name slug should by default look uneditable (cf wordpress way to do the slug)

#1277: Use solr query parser for search instead of ckan query parser

johnglover — Mon, 15 Aug 2011 13:20:46 GMT

See http://ckan.okfnpad.org/search for details/discussion

#1303: User can not login again if he has edited his profile

amercader — Thu, 01 Sep 2011 15:04:32 GMT

Only happens if the user does not update the password. Most probably introduced during #1229.

#1325: python 2.5 incompatibilities

dread — Fri, 09 Sep 2011 15:00:52 GMT

We claim to support Python 2.5 (useful for Lenny), yet a few problems have crept in:

'with' statement requires from __future__ import with_statement
import json from ckan.lib.helpers, rather than directly, since it copes with reverting to simplejson, used in python 2.5.
