! CartoGraf for Tiki version 27+

^ CartoGraf was officially launched on 2013-04-13 during the [https://tiki.org/TikiFest2013-MontrealOttawa#Maps_REAL_AMP_CartoGraf|2013 Montreal TikiFest] and is in production at [http://cartograf.learnquebec.ca] ^

::{img src="https://tiki.org/display545" link="https://profiles.tiki.org/CartoGraf" alt="CartoGraf site" desc="CartoGraf site" align="center" imalign="center" width="550"}::

__CartoGraf__ is an interactive web-based mapping application to enhance learning in history and geography classes in high schools. CartoGraf is mainly based on [https://doc.tiki.org/Maps|Maps], [https://doc.tiki.org/Drawings|Drawings], [https://doc.tiki.org/PluginAppFrame|PluginAppFrame] and [https://doc.tiki.org/Trackers|Trackers]. It is a great example of how to use profiles in a general purpose app (Tiki) to make a very specific application using Tiki as ((dev:Framework)).
To get your own copy of CartoGraf
# You need to get branches/27x (from [https://gitlab.com/tikiwiki/tiki/-/tree/27.x|GitLab]) for the latest and greatest goodies :-)  (Use the [https://dev.tiki.org/Daily Build|Daily Build] of Tiki from [https://dev.tiki.org/Get+code|git])
# The custom theme is also available from GitLab [https://gitlab.com/tikiwiki/profiles/cartograf|here]
# Activate .htaccess by renaming _htaccess (even better is to link from .htaccess to _htaccess)  Note: rewrite rules are essential for this profile
# Select and apply the CartoGraf profile from tiki-admin.php?page=profiles
# Follow the ((CartoGraf_Setup|profile Setup instructions))

We hope you like it and please do join the community!

!! Limit username pattern
CartoGraf relies heavily on ((doc:Unified Search)). Because of this, a username jean-marc won't work. Since hypens are often used in emails, you can't use CartoGraf with the pref "Use email as username" (login_is_email). Space and quote should also not be permitted. Theoretically, underscore (_) should work, but tests have demonstrated that is doesn't. Thus, we are restricting to only numbers and letters, without any accents.
As of Tiki 12 the default unified search engine uses mysql which has a minimum searchable token length of 4, so setting minumum user name length to 5 to be safe.
