Re: Help Documents not firing on El Capitan (was Re: Wiki Landing Page)

I’m using 2.6.16 as well. I don’t think it has ever worked for me though. (not sure exactly which version I started on when I moved to Mac, probably somewhere around 2.6.12 or so.) > On Jun 15, 2017, at 3:24 PM, Eric Theise wrote: > > In case you two are talking about a yet unreleased version,

Re: Help Documents not firing on El Capitan (was Re: Wiki Landing Page)

In case you two are talking about a yet unreleased version, I apologize for introducing noise, but I'm using 2.6.16 on OS 10.12.5 and, from the Help > Tutorial and Concepts Guide, Chrome opens up an unstyled page from file:///private/var/folders/... and the links it contains work just fine. On We

Help Documents not firing on El Capitan (was Re: Wiki Landing Page)

Tested everything. Also tested with default browser as Safari, Chromium-canary, Opera, Vivaldi, and Firefox Developer Edition. Nothing happens when I click anything in the help menu or any context help buttons. I do see that there are links in the GnuCash directory pointing to Help & the Guide

Re: Wiki Landing Page

Don,  Your points about the Documentation web page are well-taken. I will consider what changes might be made there to better direct new users--in a separate thread.  FWIW,  I am sunfish62 on the wiki.  David On Tue, May 30, 2017 at 9:14, doncram wrote: To David T. and John --- Okay I h

To David T. and John --- Okay I have to apologize. I didn't look carefully at the "Documentation" page at the website. Each time I went there, I saw just the first section, whose entire text is: There are two major GnuCash documentation packages to help users: - *The Help Manual*

About the suggested content now at http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/GnuCash/sandbox, one objection that I have is that it refers readers to a Documentation page at the main gnucash.org website which provides nothing for them (it only contains links to the Help manual and the Tutorial and Concept Guide,

Hi David T. and jralls. Thanks David T. for doing that. And now 7 days have gone by and I find I can create pages in the Wiki, also. I hope you don't mind I am taking some bold steps to try to move this along better, in my view, and to avoid confusion, although it may temporarily cause some co

I'll put my proposed page up in a day or two. I just hope it doesn't become the next "Draft Concept guide" on the wiki.  Is there a way to set a "destroy by" date on a wiki page?  David On Sun, May 28, 2017 at 9:09, John Ralls wrote: On May 27, 2017, at 5:03 PM, doncram wrote: Could so

Thanks, I’ll have to try installing again. Maybe something is amiss with the bundle I downloaded. I’m still getting no response from those menu entries. And I don’t see any help buttons in any window anywhere. Not sure where those ‘Context help buttons’ are supposed to be. > On May 27, 2017, a
