WebLearn/CopyUI/RelatedIdeas
Templates
This was mooted as an idea by Matthew Buckett at a recent meeting. The general idea would be as follows:
each resource has the boolean property of (say) template (default: false).
when copying, for a given root node (which itself must have template == true) the object graph is followed. Each adjacent node where template == true is added to the ad-hoc graph. Only the object graph of adjacent nodes is copied to the new destination.
The use cases such an addition would facilitate are:
- retrospective extraction of template hierarchies from existing content trees.
- complex copying, e.g. I just want 3 of the 5 sibling nodes 2 levels down.
