CartoGraf is an interactive web-based mapping application to enhance learning in history and geography classes in high schools. CartoGraf is mainly based on Maps, Drawings, PluginAppFrame and Trackers. It is a great example of how to use profiles in a general purpose app (Tiki) to make a very specific application. This is using Tiki as Framework.

You can play with the demo at:
password is at: https://demo.tiki.org/

To get your own copy of CartoGraf
  1. You need to get branches/10x (Tiki10.x from SVN) for the latest and greatest goodies :-) (Use the Daily Build of Tiki from SVN)
  2. Activate .htaccess by renaming _htaccess (even better is to link from .htaccess to _htaccess) Note: rewrite rules are essential for this profile
  3. Select and apply the CartoGraf profile from tiki-admin.php?page=profiles
  4. Follow the profile Setup instructions

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

Theme

  • Theme code is temporarily managed on a semi-private SVN. We will change later when we decide where it should live. (ask Jonny or Marc for access in the mean time)

Limit username pattern

CartoGraf relies heavily on Unified Search (Zend_Search_Lucene). Because of this, a username jean-marc won't work (but jean_marc is OK). 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.

 username_pattern: /^[_a-zA-Z0-9]*$/
