Hi, I currently have multiple versions of Python installed on my Mac, the one that came with it, a version I downloaded recently from python.org, an older version used to run Zope locally and another version that Appengine is using. It's kind of a mess. Any recommendations of using one version of python to rule them all? How would I go a...
I have a section of my zope 2 site which uses an interim macro between the 'content' and the site-wide macro. I don't want to apply security to the folder, but I would like the interim macro to redirect users to a login screen if they try to load a page that uses it. An example of this would be this: page_html contains the content, it ...
I am trying to customize the "Event" portlet in Plone 3 that shows the upcoming events. The "view" link in the footer of that portlet goes to the /events URL. But my site is multi-lingual so that URL is not always correct. For example, the correct URL for Dutch events should be /evenementen. In my setup I use one folder per language. /e...
I am looking to produce a site similar to a venue "What's on" site. The plan is that the venues can register an account to the site and then through their own 'admin' section upload/post all their latest events that are on. I am hoping that very large number of venues will sign up and each have a large number of events thus producing a ...

I am familiar with zope 2 and think that zope 3 is superior in many ways, as far as I've used it (i.e. primarily with Five). Now I'm considering to dive deeper into zope 3. Would you recommend going even one step further and use grok instead, and if so, why? (and if not, why not? :) ...

Its about understanding zope internals/architecture, when compared to Django's I am a newbee to zope and I previously worked on Django for about 2.5 years. So when I first jumped into Zope(v2)(only because my new company is using it since 7 years), I faced these questio...

This allows me to show: http://foo.com/folder/random_id Instead of: http://foo.com/folder/object.html?id=random_id The configuration side works great, I can catch the random_ids and search through my messages for the correct one, re...
I have to run a legacy Zope2 website and have some grievance with it. The biggest issue is that, occasionally, it just locks up, running at 100% CPU load and not answering to requests anymore. While the problem isn't reproducible on a regular basis, one page containing 3 dynamic graphs triggers it sometimes, so I suspect some kind of rac...
