A list for NGOs (Non-Governmental Organizations) using Plone

jpeter | 26 Feb 08:14

relative links

I'm just starting use Plone, my question might be easy to answer.
As far as I can see Plone uses absolute URLs everywhere. I can add relative
URLs, but if I create a new page, a new event, etc., then they have absolute
URLs on other automatically generated inner pages. Is there any way to
convert these URLs to relative paths? Is there any setting possibilty where
only a checkbox changes this default setting?
Thank you in advance.

SOMO is looking for a (freelance) Plone programmer

SOMO is an independent, non-profit research and network organisation working on social, ecological and economic issues related to sustainable development. Since 1973, the organisation investigates multinational corporations and the consequences of their activities for people and the environment around the world. SOMO supports social organisations by providing training, coordinating networks and generating and disseminating knowledge on multinational corporations in a context of international production, trade, financing and regulation.

SOMO hosts seven websites which are centrally maintained by an installation of Plone Multi-site. The websites have a complex structure, with many internal links and references. We are working with Plone 2.5 and in the coming months we want to make an upgrade to Plone 4.0 and install new features on the websites. Mainly focused on the use of social media outlets and web 2.0. Lastly, we are also developing an Intranet and several community networks with Plone 4.0.

Until now we worked with an external Web Development Company, but to make the work process more efficient and cost effective we prefer to directly work with an experienced freelance programmer, supported by an extern Web Development Company. As such, SOMO has some people available for the front end implementation and management and for basis template and css adjustments.

Are you:

n An experienced Plone programmer or a python expert interested in working with Plone?

n Interested in working with a non-profit organisation and supporting SOMOs’ Mission?

n Available on short term for 3 to 4 days a week in the coming months?

n Preferably based in The Netherlands and Dutch speaking? Outside The Netherlands we are willing to consider.

n Working accurately and with good communication skills?

In short term we want you to start with the installation of the Intranet. For the longer term we will discuss the available work.

If you are interested, experienced and available please contact Edith van Overveld before the 16th of February by email e.van.overveld-2FUcAZJhc+A@public.gmane.org.

Digital libraries and CiviCRM

Hi there,

I'm studying at Dalhousie University in Halifax, N.S., Canada and I need a little help with a project I am working on for my digital libraries class (I'm a Master of Library and Information Studies student).

We're looking at implementing an open source CRM for a project called Knowledge for All (K4All). An explanation of the site (that hasn't launched yet) is as follows:

"Knowledge for All is an open access citation database (...). It will provide researchers with a single tool to search across all disciplines and the general public with free access to a scholarly citations. Thousands of libraries around the world will share project costs and content creation, thereby contributing staff expertise and saving thousands of dollars on database subscriptions. Knowledge for All will be an open source, customizable tool with robust search features that will give institutions control over their content and technology."

The CRM would be used to keep track of the site's contributors and automate workflow. Is there an option to create automated workflows? I can't tell with the test account.

Thank you,

Erin O'Halloran
