Forum Split

Post by rony »

We are currently working on spliting one of the more popular forums "Scripts and other Addons" into two seperate forums, "Addons for Cacti" and "Scripts and Templates".

Over the next week, you will see posts moving around as we finish the forum split. Any questions or concerns, please direct them to Rony.

Sensible thing, lookup should be better.
Will there be a repository available in the future for the scripts?

Repository will probably wait until 0.9.0 version of cacti it in full swing.

Done moving all the items around. If you feel an item is out of place, let me know via PM.

This angers and confuses me!
Just kidding - I got that line from Futurama...

It would be great if a templates repository was created.
Things like what version a template works with.
Maybe some way to indicate whether a template is in some way an "official" or "tested and approved" template etc.

Also needed: An official "how-to" export a template and some template making guidelines and tutorial.

I made some cool templates on 0.8.6g and exported them and cant even import them on my other 0.8.6g box.
I am frustrated with my own template attempts at this point, but VERY greatful to all of you who created and uploaded some sweet templates.

A seperate template area would be appreciated.
Thank you,

Ernie

The way templates are going to work in 0.9.0 gets rid of all the issues everyone has been having with templates. :)

One repository for all AddOn, Template and scripts of cacti

Post by pepj »

Hi

The Forum is great and the answer too, but ...

I have often the problem to find quickly a Template, scripts or AddOn and the last version to download.
It would be good if we have a repository were all the features, templates, and AddOn are regrouped with the version and the creator and a link to the latest version.
I have seen that some Plugins are in "cactiusers.org". It should be good at having only one repository for all Template, scripts or AddOn.
