SVG files?

posts: 5

I just discovered Tiki today as a result of Googling "cms svg"

I have been experimenting with Drupal, but I think I will have to abandon that because I now need my site to display svg graphics.

I see from the documentation that the "File Galleries" includes "SVG."

Does this mean that with Tiki I can load svg graphics onto my pages just as I would jpg or png?

Hi barrym,

maybe you want to look here:

yourdomain.com/tiki-admin.php?page=fgal

Do you have an error message like that:

! Missing Handlers
image/jpeg
image/png
image/svg+xml

?

I will look into that, because your uestion makes me avare.

What Tiki version you are Using (I just checked in a Tiki Trunk developer test version)

Cheers
Torsten

Torsten,

I have not installed Tiki. There is no point in my making that investment (time) yet until I clarify whether Tiki can load and display svg graphics as content, not icons.

Best wishes,

...and apparently one downloads the "mod svg" from here:

http://mods.tikiwiki.org/details.php?type=wikiplugins&mod=svg

and then installs it according to these instructions:

http://doc.tiki.org/Mods+Admin

and that page at the bottom has two other relevant links:

http://doc.tiki.org/Mods+User

and

http://doc.tiki.org/Mods+Details.

I must say that if all of this is accurate and actually allows for readily using svg just like other graphics (allowing for the minor specific svg required syntax) then this is extremely impressive.

Most software is apparently still way behind the curve, in terms of svg, with Inkscape the major player and also I must recommend Scribus, which does an extremely good job of managing svg. Scribus does not yet allow for editing svg, but it imports and exports (to pdf) easily.

Best wishes,
Barry
