Outsourcing the Userbase

Posted by michaelmaass, in WISE 1.3, english

Since a customer is looking into upgrading his WISE 1.1 installation I was asked to confirm the availability of active directory as a userbase in WISE 1.3.
The short story: confirmed.
But seriously… I put up a win2003 Server out of the box on a VM and added a group wiseuser as well as a new […]

RSS is one of the most important features of WISE, because it allows reuse of WISE Object information as well as the […]

Container Bugs 2

Posted by michaelmaass, in Issues, english, Product Hacks

Michael
I think that the current “capability” of the container is probably a mistake, the sort order shouldn’t be changed.
But to your question. The reason that you have a smaller pyc file is that the container is a Wise product which is actually producted by a product we call the wise compiler. You will need to […]

Container Bugs

Feeds to the Rescue

Posted by michaelmaass, in english, Product Hacks, DTML-Stuff

What
Webservices are the meat of efficient IT-supported Informationmanagement. Some 5 Objects within native WISE 1.2R2 do provide RSS 0.9 feed information if called with the suffix /rss in the URL.
That are:

Container

Calendar

Bulletin board

Notices

Web Directory

and

NC3A WISE Filesystem if installed

However, these do not give themselves away if used on a WISE-page.
Bad marketing…….
Why
For that reason one of my efforts […]
