What is Scoop
|
Scoop is a "collaborative media application". It falls somewhere between a
content management system, a web bulletin board system, and a weblog.
Scoop is designed to enable your website to become a community. It empowers
your visitors to be the producers of the site, contributing news and discussion,
and making sure that the signal remains high.

Where can I get Scoop
|
|
You can download the latest release tarball: scoop_1.1.8.tar.gz
You can grab the nightly build. Note: This is generated automatically from the current CVS, and may not be reliable! Get that here: scoop-1.1-nightly.tar.gz
The developers strongly recommend CVS as the primary way to obtain Scoop, since releases tend to have pretty long delays between them. If you have CVS installed, do the following:
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@ scoop.versionhost.com:/cvs/scoop login
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@ scoop.versionhost.com:/cvs/scoop co scoop
The above is two commands; each one must be on a single line. When prompted for a password for anonymous, enter 'anonymous' (without the quotes). For more CVS info, "Open Source Development with CVS" is an excellent online reference.

Where can I get help
|
|
There are several sources of information and support for Scoop. The first place to look is the scoop-help mailing list. You can browse the archives, or join the list. If you want to post a question, joining the list is strongly recommended. You can also join the #scoop IRC channel on SlashNET.
For documentation, there is the (largely complete) Scoop administrator's guide. You can also read the current
README and
INSTALL files, from Scoop WebCVS (username and password are both "anonymous"). The admin guide is also included with Scoop, in the doc/ directory.
If you have new feature ideas or requests, or descriptions of something you're working on for Scoop, this site is the place to submit them. You can also search this site for information. If you want to get your hands dirty, or have any questions about developing for Scoop, there is also the Scoop-dev list. You can browse the archives, or join the list.
Bug reports and patches should be filed on the Scoop Bug Muncher.
If you have any problems with this site or your user account, e-mail the Admin

Will Scoop run with it? I have a mod_perl for binary the Win Apache2, and am curious if this will work? The mod_perl I grabbed for ActivePerl 5.6.800 seems to want to grab the mod_perl for Apache 2, and well, if this works, why not try it out. Any thoughts?

I'm updating my Scoop in Windows how-to as Theantix mentioned int no longer works. Would I be better to go with the 1.0 nightlies or with 0.9?
Thanks for any advice you can offer.

Simple Themes Mod

I needed to be able to have a different look and feel for a particular section and the stories that go along with that section.
What this mod does is override the default template for an section and the default template for the story op.
You can check out my mod by going to http://www.mrrc.net and http://www.mrrc.net/oqp . Compare the different looks for the stories in the oqp section vs. all the other sections.

some people use it when they design software. for example, take something like a 'story' on k5. a state transition diagram would tell you like, you know, when it should be in the editing queue, when it goes to the voting queue, and under what conditions. in fact it would be incredibly simple to understand and anyone could look at it and know what was going on.

I have the backend all done; feed it a comma-separated list of themes in the order you want them applied and it will happily layer them for you. Now I'm working on the front/admin end.
