GHOP #117: Document the asset module

1. I suspect that you don't want the student to go through detailed steps of how to enable modules on each handbook page, but if that's the case I don't think it's crystal clear, and I would hate for a student to waste his time doing that 9 times at the beginning of the task.

2. I would point them to the location of the parent page in the handbook under which you wish the pages the student generates to go, so that somebody doesn't have to go back later and change the parents for a bunch of pages.

3. There is no deliverables section. It's pretty obvious from the description section, but the deliverables section allows us GHOP admins to quickly scan an issue and see what it is that the student needs to do so we can quickly check to see if the student is making appropriate progress.

The above comments are all pretty minor, so once you've addressed them feel free to add this as a task.

Let's stick this in the Asset module queue.

I'm having issues integrating assets with tinymce. One of the few places I found it explained was here: http://drupal.org/node/149582, when I added the code listed (took away the php opening and closing tags, wouldn't of made sense in the plugin_reg.php) it added a drupalassest check box in the tinymce buttons section, but when checked it doesn't do anything. I also found this article: http://drupal.org/node/204622, which said to move the tinymce files from the assest folder to the tinymce's plugins folder, but that didn't do anything either. So I'm not quite sure what to do.

@wmostrey: I don't quite understand your comment above. philipw is the student (I think) who has claimed this GHOP task, so shouldn't he be posting here if he is having problems with the task?

Tried moving the drupal asset folder, didn't work. The only thing it changed was I got 2 javascript errors, before I moved it from the first plugin directory I only got one. These are the errors I'm getting:

tinyMCE.importPluginLanguagePack is not a function
from file '/sites/all/modules/tinymce/tinymce/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/drupalasset/editor_plugin.js'

tinyMCE.getEditorId is not a function
from file '/sites/all/modules/asset/tinymce/asset_tinymce_helper.js'

That is exactly correct.

Also what exactly is supposed to be the parent when I write the handbook pages? Is the last 9 supposed to have the first one as their parent? I see there is already an 'asset' handbook page, but I guess I'm supposed to create a new one since that one belongs to the asset maintainer.

Thanks for the help, I'll try just doing a drupal reinstall and start from scratch and see if that works.

I added the first page: http://drupal.org/node/208258
I have some screen shots that I think would be helpful can I put them in or does someone else have to do it for me. They are attached.

@philipw: It would probably be easiest for you if you apply to be a documentation maintainer (if you aren't already) by creating such an issue at http://drupal.org/project/issues/documentation. Make sure to include your drupal user id (the number, not the name). Once you have documentation maintainer status, you can upload images to handbook pages and use <img></img> tags within handbook pages by changing the input format of the node to Documentation.

I still can't get tinymce plugin working. I tried a fresh installation, even on a different machine and it still didn't work, so I don't know. What do you think about my new pages:

http://drupal.org/node/209387
http://drupal.org/node/209404

Added another one:
http://drupal.org/node/210530

First I install drupal. Then I install the asset module and the tinymce module. I move those files from the asset folder to the tinymce folder, and also add the lines of code to the plugin_reg.php. Then I go and activate the modules on the Administer>Site building>Modules page. Then I configure Tinymce and select the asset button in its button options. Then I go to create some content and the tinymce bar shows up but not the asset button. Since others say this work I think I might just do up a handbook page as best I can.

P.S. I can't get the asset embed module or the asset youtube module to work either.

I was trying to do panels integration and I ended up with this error after creating a new panel as specified:

    * warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in W:\www\drupal ghop\modules\node\node.module on line 521.
    * warning: implode() [function.implode]: Bad arguments. in W:\www\drupal ghop\modules\node\node.module on line 525.

and when I try to bring up the view:

philipw : is your drupal install in a subfolder of your webroot ?
Maybe your difficulties could be related : http://drupal.org/node/207976

@wmostrey: yes I used the autocomplete function, so I know it was right

@yched: no it's not in the root so I'll try the patch or try moving it to the root, thanks

philipw has indicated that he has finished all of the pages in the ghop task tracker, so I'll set the status as CNR here.

Not sure if this is the place to comment, but it is related to the Asset documentation.

The page relating to CCK Assets (http://drupal.org/node/209387) doesn't explain how to get the "Download this audio file" link to appear on a node with an asset field. It isn't clear if these links are part of the module, generated automatically for certain file formats, or if they are manual, such as when you pick between embedding an image or just providing a link to it.
