Does there exist anything akin "Master Slave Widget" for PloneFormGen? Where the user choices first choice A which would generate the list of choices for choice B (below) to select? This is a far less than ideal answer, but I've done this several times with JavaScript injected into the header with a PFG override. It's only practical for relatively simple decision trees. The basic procedure is to on-load hide all the subsidiary controls, then reveal them as click events indicate a controlling choice. Grouping subsidiary controls into fieldsets is also handy: then you may show and hide controls

I'm trying to set a folder default view as a Dexterity content type that I created. But I see that Dexterity content types aren't in the list of possible default content views for folders. Why? Is there an option that I must set in the content type? Content items are listed as candidate default pages if: the object is not a container type or the object portal type is listed in the default_page_types of your site_properties property sheet. Find that in the ZMI (site settings -> Zope Management Interface -> portal_properties ). The default_page_types property is a list of portal_type ids; for

I'm back to using Plone after a very long time without using it. We have setup an Intranet with Plone 4.0.5. We have upload lots of documents (mostly File) to the intranet. The site was installed using the Plone Unified Installer with a ZEO configuration. Some products (eggs) were added (if you need some part of our buildout.cfg and/or versions.cfg; please ask for it) to our buildout.cfg With both the ZEO server and clients running; I'm doing: $ bin/client1 debug Starting debugger (the name "app" is bound to the top-level Zope object) ... several warnings ... >>> Now, I query the catalog like

I have a folder called myfolder , that has some items inside, like: item1 , item2 , item3 , and etc. When I added the portlet Navigation to the left column of the page, and entered on the folder myfolder , it showed me the links on the portlet like this: item1 item2 item3 I want that the Navigation portlet shows me links on this exact sort: item2 item1 item3 I know that I can go on the Content tab of myfolder enter code here , and drag each item to the position that I want. But using this way, if I reinstall all my product on a new Plone Site , I lost my configuration. So I want to have this

I upgrade a Plone site from 4.2 to 4.3. The upgrade steps are basically: running install.sh to have a 4.3 environment copy Data.fs to var/filestorage and custom dexterity package to src running upgrade in ZMI Everything seems fine. But when I add/edit Page items, TinyMCE toolbar is missing for the body field. Only showing a Text Format dropdown. Note: I do see the toolbar trying to render (first 2 icons appear), but fail and disappear. What am I missing? Any hints? No definitive answers, but a few suggestions. I have 9 plone sites all running the same version of Plone (4.2) and have some where

I've and Zope utility with a method that perform network processes. As the result of the is valid for a while, I'm using plone.memoize.ram to cache the result. MyClass(object): @cache(cache_key) def do_auth(self, adapter, data): # performing expensive network process here ...and the cache function: def cache_key(method, utility, data): return time() // 60 * 60)) But I want to prevent the memoization to take place when the do_auth call returns empty results (or raise network errors). Looking at the plone.memoize code it seems I need to raise ram.DontCache() exception, but before doing this I
