Create a media app #59

Closed epicserve closed 10 years ago

epicserve commented 12 years ago

It seems like the CMS would be more organized if all media type models (i.e. armstrong.apps.images, armstrong.apps.embedded_video) where under one app called Media. Here is a screenshot of how that looks in another Django CMS.

This is something that's planned, but through a slightly different route. Rather than merging the apps at the app level, they'll be merged into groups in the admin via admin-tools. This keeps all of the applications independent, while providing a logical grouping at the interface level.

Closing as no longer relevant. AppsImages is a super weak point and really really needs replacing (Bay Citizen has draft code but who knows if it'll ever see the light). AppsEmbeddedVideo is unmaintained; for things like this armstrong.apps.embeds is a much better solution.

I do agree with Travis's approach of independent apps and interface grouping. For the record.
