I am a beginner with MoinMoin. I am looking for a way to capture some stats about users. Specifically, interested in knowing the top contributors, their edit frequency, etc. Is there a way to do that??
Aside from the usual webserver log based stuff, you could look at moin's editlog and eventlog, there are some helpers in MoinMoin.log package.
moin has also some buildin "stats" stuff in MoinMoin.stats and some macros using that.
if you have questions, the #moin irc channel on freenode (be patient) or the moin-user mailing list is maybe quicker than stackoverflow.

We operate a ColdFusion site with a custom CSS acting as a directory of various companies. Depending on the type of company, we have a set of subpages containing specific information pulled from the CMS about the company, such as "location/directions". We're looking to add functionality enabling users to add comments to the existing content. I'm looking for suggestions on open source or other available ColdFusion software out there that could work for this. While we could write something custom, commenting tools have been done a thousand times and probably better than we can do it.
While what we're looking for sounds like a blog or forum, its more of a hybrid. We'd like to be able to add functionality enabling commenting on the content we post in the context we post it in. Seems like there must be something out there that can be easily modified and integrated with our CMS.
Does anyone know of anything out there we should look into?
I'm going to vote to close this too, as per the others, but here's an answer anyway.
If you just want to add commenting to existing content, perhaps use Disqus. It's not locally installable (and is not CFML-based; it's all JS), but it does handle most things one would need if just wanting to add comments to a site.
If you want a native, self-managed solution, unfortunately StackOverflow have deemed that sort of question "unworthy", so you'll need to ask elsewhere. Despite being an entirely reasonable question, for which the answers would be helpful to other people later on (which is - in theory - the raison d'etre of Stack Overflow. Although that's hard to tell, sometimes).
I know I'm not the first, but I'm an audio pack rat who keeps their collection meticulously organized. Having tried a range of tools, there are holes and time sucks that bug me. I've started in on the project to build the software that I wish existed.
My question centres around a feature that I hope will cut down on the time it takes to build play lists. Over time, I want to gradually attach generic keywords to my MP3's. For example, when I'm listening to an album suitable for programming, I'd like to attach keywords like "ambient" and "no lyrics" so that I can just search by those descriptions later. Unfortunately, I'm having troubles finding any established conventions for how people might already be doing this.
Are there dedicated ID3 tags for this purpose? (I found none in the spec)
Is there an alternative metadata strategy I should look at?
To be clear, my intention is to bake the keywords into the MP3 somehow.
I'll handle any searches through a database, but I want this info to move easily to other devices and pre populate easily if I change/upgrade the manager.
If this isn't something that people do already, I'll just roll my own solution into a custom/comment tag, but I'd really prefer to leverage any existing momentum. My pie in the sky hope is a central database of these keywords to save everyone the effort of tagging their collections.
Thanks for taking a look at this!
I want to do something a bit like they have on IMDb - every film and every person has a forum dedicated just to them. I also want to have a forum on the main message boards, which would show all the threads from the film pages and another forum for all the threads from the people pages.
I've been looking at DjangoBB, Dinette and Sphene (SCT). DjangoBB looks like it has the most features and it's very elegant. Dinette doesn't seem that far behind. Sphene has a few disadvantages - less features I think and it makes me dependent on Sphene's Community app, but it seems like it might be the easiest to use in my scenario - I've seen examples of Sphene being used in similar fashion.
I'm pretty sure all three can be made to do more or less what I want, but would love some opinions on what might work best for me.
Another thing to consider: you could just use django-threadedcomments. It won't be as full-featured as installing a full forum solution, but has the advantage of being very compact and flexible -- basically, threaded comments can be attached to anything (a Person, a Film, etc).
It appears that DjangoBB and Dinette are not set up so that forums could attach themselves to a record in this fashion. Not sure about Sphene but it sounds like you'd have to use the entire community app.
I've set up a very, very simple Discussion app that could perform what you want. If you're interested let me know and I'll put it up on github for you to take a look at. Note that it's not at all full-featured like the ones you mentioned.
A bit late to answer this, but I think it might be worth mentioning The Pinax Project, which is django-based and is geared toward rapid development of social websites with many applications integrated together and customizeable at the user-level.
I'm building a multi user system and I'm creating an somewhat experimental idea for the users to interact.
The site is for professional actors so they can post up their profile and so casting directors can find them. All that is going fine.
What I now want to do it create a wall/twitter group area where people can post short messages just like in twitter.
I'm developing all this in Django and while I have a really good Django developer working on the site, I've decided to take on this part myself. I'm relatively new to django, I have 10 years PHP/Java experience.
I've set up the basics of posting a message and parsing urls etc. What I want to do now is create a reply to and a direct message feature.
Is there any other projects out there that would have done something similar to this that could help me in not re-inventing the wheel completely.
Also on a general note as an idea, any suggestions as to what to do different considering my environment and audience.
Check out Trillr (including considering binning any work you've done and just including this wholesale, open-source licence permitting).
I am looking for a blogging and comments system that can smoothly integrate with my Django sites. I've found there is a lot on the Net and got lost a bit, and I don't have much experience on this. Hope you guys can give me some suggestions.
Here are the things that I would like to have:
Tag Clouds
Articles Archive (by months/by years)
Articles Rating (e.g. with Stars or customize icons)
Comments to the particular Topic/Articles
Sub-Comments of a particular comments (i.e. following up comments)
Blogs/Articles Searching
Able to relate other articles that is relevant (i.e. follow up Articles)
Pagination of the comments if get too long
OpenIDs supports (e.g. facebook, hotmail, blogger, twitter...etc)
Support login before user can comments
Able to retrieve Blogs' Header and customized the display order
Able to subscribe this article to RSS
Able to Email this to friends (this may not belongs to the comments system)
If I missed some common functions, please let me know. The comments system I am looking for should do most jobs that those popular comments system should do on the web, e.g. WordPress.
Thank you so much everyone. Have a nice day.
I myself really like django-threadedcomments. It supports threaded commenting like what you would see in Disqus.
i heard django-comment-utils is quite good. - may you test it :)
