Currently when you create a new topic you need to manually select the Topic Type and Format, then in some cases delete the initial template and insert a correct one. As such we should be asking users the information initially and then presenting a useful template for them to use. Examples: - DocBook 5.0 template should have the default namespaces. - Revision History topics should have the base appendix/revhistory setup. - Author Groups should be an <authorgroup> block instead of a <section> - Legal Notice should be a <legalnotice> block instead of a <section> - Abstract should be an <abstract> block instead of a <section>
Added in 1.5-SNAPSHOT build 201403281527 Clicking the "Create Topic" button in either the menu of search results panel will now open a Dialog box which asks the user the following: - Topic Title - Topic Format - Topic Type - Topic Locale From the above values a template is then selected and used to provide a more accurate template. To do this a number of new server entities have been added to the RESTServerEntitiesV1 representation that define the new templates. Note: This version is currently live on the test/development server.
Confirmed that topics created with the tag templates work correctly. I assume tags like "Content Specification" will be removed from the topic types category on the prod server with the upgrade to prevent them from showing up in this wizard?
Yeah that was the plan, I just couldn't do it before because of BZ#1079172.
The info template should be changed to: <sectioninfo> <abstract> <para></para> </abstract> <keywordset> <keyword></keyword> </keywordset> </sectioninfo> I was caught out adding text directly to the abstract.
