MegamanicEdit

A tool that enables editing of multiple objects at the same time. Also supports displaying a MegamanicEdit-able object in a comprehensive/summary view.

Project Description

MegamanicEdit is a tool which enables constructing objects where fields are "dynamic", for example in GrailTact, a user can add several Email objects, and these are treated as regular fields when editing the container (Contact) object.

It also enables adding objects from a template, so for example leads interested in something can be greated from a landing page (see GrailTact also here).

Thanks to Bluedynamics' AtMultiEdit for giving a good example.

Portions of the templates/skins are taken from the Archetypes product, which is "Copyright (c) 2002-2006, Benjamin Saller <bcsaller@ideasuite.com>, and the respective authors. All rights reserved."

NOTE: Currently only known to support text fields and areas. Use the 'Add portal content' permission for all project content types, so that it integrates nicely with the megamanic template object class.

Integrates nicely with Archetypes.

To add to your Plone instance, add the following to the buildout configuration:

zcml =
GrailTact.GrailTact
MegamanicEdit.MegamanicEdit
VariousDisplayWidgets.VariousDisplayWidgets

eggs =
Plone
GrailTact
MegamanicEdit
VariousDisplayWidgets

And install both products through the Plone control panel.  GrailTact will serve as an example of how to use MegamanicEdit.

Also available are some screenshots of MegamanicEdit on Plone 4.
