[FM Discuss] Flossmanuals admin plugins

[Daniel James]

Hi Bren,

Not as far as I know.

As I understand it, bookinfo controls what is displayed on the FM
homepage. It does not change anything in the editing copy of the book on
booki.flossmanuals.net (again, that's as far as I know).

You can change what is displayed on FM's HTML interface using the
bookinfo plugin, without changing the title or URL of the original. This
causes a problem for the title of the screen PDF, if you have cloned a
book from an earlier edition, e.g:

http://en.flossmanuals.net/_booki/newscoop-4-journalists-en-4-0/newscoop-4-journalists-en-4-0.pdf

is titled Newscoop 3, even though the title was changed to Newscoop 4.

> b) Publish French & Spanish editions to Flossmanuals

That would be the 'get booki gears' plugin but it does not seem to be
working since last week. I publish updates but I never get the
confirmation emails. E.g. this morning I pushed an update to
http://en.flossmanuals.net/newscoop-4-cookbook-en-4-0/ which did not happen.

If you have a login for http://www.flossmanuals.net/admin.php then yes
you can. If you don't have that login, please let me know.

Cheers!
