Search Error for logedin users
Well, after being away for a while on a cretin project, I'm back to work with cyn.in in our company :) Away, the problem arose. Seems that after we updated to latest cyn.in a while back (actually after the release), we can't use search as a logged in user. Here is the log (notice the variable PATH_INFO):

Smart collections criteria fix until Cyn.in update
To a problem discussed here:
Login as siteadmin, go to Site Settings and add the following code to the JavaScript for web statistics support
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
/* HELPFUL FUNCTIONS */
function fix_colat() {
if ($('form[name="criteria_select"] select#criterion_type option').length <= 0) {
$('form[name="criteria_select"] select#criterion_type').html($('form[name="criteria_select"] select#criterion_type').text());
}
}
/* RUN MAIN FUNCTION */
$(document).ready(function () {
$('form[name="criteria_select"] select#criterion_type').change(function () { fix_colat();});
fix_colat();
});
-->
</script>
As always, you are free to comment the temporary fix :) Please note that when cyn.in 3.0.6 comes out you should remove this code and see how it works then :)
Visual "Poke-in-the-eye" when loged in as siteadmin
If you are anything like me, you would like to have a poke-in-the-eye notification that you are currently logged in as a site admin. In my office, siteadmin doesn't contribute with content, just manages the creation of spaces, deleting trash and basic site setup tasks. In such case, some of use ... a double login. Our own login, and a siteadmin login. To help us prevent leaving content as a siteadmin we implemented this script to show us that we are loged in as site admin:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
/* HELPFUL FUNCTIONS */
function is_siteadmin () {
$item = $('img#myareaavatarimg').closest('a');
return ($item.attr('rel').length - $item.attr('rel').lastIndexOf('siteadmin') == 9);
}
/* RUN MAIN FUNCTION */
$(document).ready(function () {
if (is_siteadmin ())
{
/*COLOR BACKGROUND TO DARK RED TO MAKE IT MORE VISIBLE A SITE ADMIN IS LOGGED IN*/
$('body')
.css('background-image','none')
.css('background-color','#882222');
}
});
-->
</script>
Just go to Site Settings as siteadmin and copy-paste the above code to your JavaScript for web statistics support section.
Just thought to share this with people that wanna have this :)
