Hi,
I am working on a new Daisy project
and have a question about tagging and Categories.
I see in the daisy scratchpad how a field like
$DaisyCommWikiCategory is used in the navigation
document query.
I am looking for something similar, but more like tagging.
By tagging I mean multiple attributes such as;
Attributes:
White-Paper, Meeting-Planner, Tutorial, News.
Math, Science, Automobiles.
DocA - Science, White-Paper
DocB - Math, White-Paper
DocC - News
DocD - Science, News
I think I found a way to do this, I created a multi-value field
called Tag with this set of values. Then I made a New Document
just like SimpleDocument but with the Tag field and I called it
BasicDocument. Why am I doing this:
Now I can do a query for these 'tags' for navigation
or query includes.
I could also use these tags in a faceted browser? I hope.
Or for a 'similar docs' list based on a custom publisher?
I am also thinking if I want this kind of tagging on attachments
I would make a new attachment document type with this new Tag
field.
WDYT?
Thanks, Chris.
p.s. The documentation was very good. I recently installed Daisy 1.5.1
on Ubuntu 6 and had no trouble. There were a few steps but easy
to follow.
