Base configuration (Français)

When you have installed the application there is a few simple steps to follow to configure your Chimère.

Most of theses steps are done in the administration pages accessible at : http://where_is_chimere/admin
To access theses pages you have to identify you with login and password provided at the initialization of the database.

Creating users

If you are not the only administrator of this Chimère installation you have to create account for the other users.
Currently the process has to be done manualy.

Simply click on the Add button near Users. Give a name and a default password (the user can change it on in own later).
Then complete the other pieces of information.
Check the case: Member of the staff (or this user will not be able to log to this administration site).
To simply give this user correct rights don't add permission manualy but make this user member of a group.
Two default group are proposed: application administrator and moderator.

Detail of rights for default user/groups:

Task Application owner Application administrator Moderator
User add/modify/delete yes no no
Group add/modify/delete yes no no
Property model add/modify/delete yes no no
News add/modify/delete yes yes no
Area add/modify/delete yes yes no
Icon add/modify/delete yes yes no
Category/Subcategory add/modify/delete yes yes no
Point Of Interest add/modify/delete yes yes yes
Route add/modify/delete yes yes yes

Setting the welcome page

The message has to be set by updating the file templates/welcome.html.
You only have to change the message at the begin of #detail_content.

Creating property models

A basic installation of Chimère only permit to associate a name, a category and (for the point of interest) a picture for each point of interest and each route. You may want to add more fields like phone number or opening hours. For that all you have to do is to add a new property model.
The administration ask you for name, order (to order between other properties), availability for the user and type (only text field and long text field are available for the moment).
Then to make this property available it is necessary to restart your application (and then probably to reload Apache).
All forms are then automaticaly updated with this new field.

Updating the detail window

When clicking on a POI a window appear with the details.
Particulary if you have set some new property models you may want to customize this window.
Each property is in a paragraph with id: property_i_j (i is the order and j is the model property id - the first model property is id 1 then 2...).
You can simply adapt the CSS file (static/styles.css) to match the desired presentation.
If you want to really change the whole presentation you can change the template file templates/detail.html (go to the Django template documentation for details).

Updating the design

You can of course customize Chimère with your own CSS. To do that just edit the file static/styles.css.

After this basic configuration done the harder is done. You can do now application administration tasks.
