Title: Database Expressions: Page re-write is now published.
Post by: marko on October 07, 2010, 01:30:29 pm

After seven or eight weeks of work, the database expressions page on the wiki has been completely re-written and is now published.

For all those looking to learn a bit more about expressions, this re-write should now provide a lot more help.

Enjoy,

That looks great! I'm looking forward to reading through it and using some expressions for photo albums.

Wonderful!

I wonder, could it be combined with this:
http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Database_Expressions

It might be nice to end up with a single article "Expression Language" or similar that has this at the bottom to make sure it's in the FAQ:
[[Category: Frequently Asked Questions]]

I could make the changes too, but I don't want to step on your toes.

Thanks for the great job :)

I looked at doing this pre-Marco re-write, but did not have the permission to change the high-level index page.

I think one landing page would be better too.

The main index page (http://wiki.jriver.com/index.php/Category:Frequently_Asked_Questions) is formed automatically with all articles that have this tag at the end:

Thank you all very much for your responses, particularly to glynor, who has reported that he found the page to be not only pretty, but practical too, and rachely476, whose first post to say "thanks". Welcome to the forum rachely476.

I'll keep the page updated with any changes or additions as they arise, so it will now remain up-to-date.

Matt, I'm not sure about the page-merge...
I've added links to that, and the "XOR" page to the end of the new overview section which should hopefully suffice for now.

Regards,
-marko.

EDIT: Just caught rachely476's signature there, I do hope we don't have a new spammer on board. If I'm wrong, I apologise, but, it does look a tad dodgy!! I don't see any "affiliate" number in the url, which is the only reason the jury is still out for me :)

rachel was definitely a spammer.  Gone now.

Thanks again, Marko.
