SNAPPS released their AnyPlace SiteMap for Quickr at no cost

SNAPPS has just released their AnyPlace Sitemap tool for Lotus Quickr FOR FREE! You had to pay US-$ 2.000 before :!:

With this tool you can very easily create a site map (a small pop-up window with all your Quickr folders and documents) from where you can easily navigate to any of the documents. See this example:

AnyPlace SiteMap

It can be implemented in any Quickr place by any place manager, no development is needed. You can customize what information is displayed (e.g. you can hide things as security, members, customize etc.).

Other AnyPlace products will be published free in the near future, as described here.

Download it from here.

Update: AnyPlace Designer has already been published there also. It is a Dreamweaver extension which helps to create themes for Quickr (Domino).

Teamplace for Quickr (Domino) with combined blogs and wikis

Lotus business partner Peters Technology Group in the US together with Lotus Development has created a template for Quickr (Domino) which combines the team place functionality with the functionality of blogs and wikis.

Unlike the QSite template of SNAPPS (which was mainly created for demonstration purposes of what is possible) this template has only the minimum of code and agents inside and can be used also in production environments.

You can download the template after registration.

Currently this template is not supported by IBM but there are ongoing discussions to change this in near future.

Update: Peters Technology group just updated the templates for use with Quickr 8.1 and have also provided now own templates with only teamplace & wiki and teamplace & blog in addition to all three ones.

Quickr (Domino) “remembers” old place names

After I did a clean re-install of Quickr on my demo Domino server I noticed that Quickr seems to remember some old place names although I was really sure that I cleaned up all references (PLACECATALOG.NSF, mail-in database entries etc.). It was very strange that on the Domino console you could still read messages like

[codesyntax lang=”text” title=”Log”]

[/codesyntax]

If you look at the URL you can see that all URLs relate to ATOM feeds. I then checked my Firefox browser bookmarks and found some old live bookmarks which pointed to these no longer existing feed URLs.

After deleting them the strange messages were gone 🙂
