History: Custom Repository

View page Collapse Into Edit Sessions

Preview of version: 1

Other Tiki sites in addition to this one can be made into profile repositories. Such custom repositories can then be listed in the profiles admin panel (Admin Home > Profiles > Repositories) of the same or another site where the profile is to be applied. This page explains the steps necessary to make a Tiki site a profile repository.

 Note
Custom repositories may be helpful for testing or in cases where there are firewall issues. But please remember to contribute useful profiles to this site as well so that they are available to the Tiki Community.


Creating the repository

  • Add a line to the .htaccess file as described at Profile_Repository_Rewrite_Configuration

  • Create a category called "My Profiles"

  • Edit permissions for the My Profiles category as follows:
    • Version 3.x:
      • Assign tiki_p_view_categories to the Anonymous group
      • Assign tiki_p_view_categorized to the Anonymous group
    • Version 4.x
      • Assign tiki_p_view_category to the Anonymous group

  • For each profile wiki page created:
    • Assign the page to the My Profiles category
    • Apply the following permissions to the page:
      • Assign tiki_p_view to the Anonymous group
      • Assign tiki_p_export_wiki to the Anonymous group

Accessing the repository

Go to the site where you want to apply a profile from the custom repository you've created and do the following:
  • Go to Admin Home > Profiles and find the repository URLs listed (under the Advances tab in 4.x)

  • Add the URL for the custom repository site followed by "/profiles" to the list of repository URLs
    • Example: http://yourdomain.com/profiles
      Note: always add "/profiles" to the end of the main url for the site
    • Use localhost/profiles if the repository site is also the site where the profiles will be applied

  • Click save

  • The repository and its profiles should be available for listing and applying - see Administration Interface for more information and screenshots
