Installation
PyPI
pip install djangocms-lab-members
GitHub (development branch)
pip install git+http://github.com/mfcovington/djangocms-lab-members.git@develop


Configuration

Ignore instructions for django-lab-members, the non-django CMS app that this app extends.
Install django CMS and start a project, if one doesn’t already exist.
Unless you use this app as part of djangocms-lab-site or plan to style the app from scratch, you will want to choose the Use Twitter Bootstrap Theme option (when running djangocms) and then edit the resulting templates/base.html.

This will add style that looks like Bootstrap 2. To use Bootstrap 3 styling, remove the following line for the bootstrap-theme.min.css stylesheet from templates/base.html:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/twitter-bootstrap/3.x.x/css/bootstrap-theme.min.css">

The default menu settings for django CMS using Bootstrap will allow the user to access specific lab members via a dropdown menu, but will not give easy access to the summary page of all lab member. To fix this do one of the following:

In templates/base.html, change {% show_menu 0 1 100 100 "menu.html" %} to {% show_menu 0 0 100 100 "menu.html" %}, or
Use a split button dropdowns by changing that line to {% show_menu 0 100 1 1 ‘_menu.html’ %} and populate _menu.html as done in djangocms-lab-site.




Edit the project’s settings.py file.

Add cms_lab_members and its dependencies to your INSTALLED_APPS setting:
INSTALLED_APPS = (
# ...
'cms_lab_members',
'cms_lab_publications',
'easy_thumbnails',
'filer',
'friendlytagloader',
'lab_members',
'taggit',
)

Add easy_thumbnail settings:
# For easy_thumbnails to support retina displays (recent MacBooks, iOS)
THUMBNAIL_HIGH_RESOLUTION = True
THUMBNAIL_QUALITY = 95
THUMBNAIL_PROCESSORS = (
'easy_thumbnails.processors.colorspace',
'easy_thumbnails.processors.autocrop',
'filer.thumbnail_processors.scale_and_crop_with_subject_location',
'easy_thumbnails.processors.filters',
)
THUMBNAIL_PRESERVE_EXTENSIONS = ('png', 'gif')
THUMBNAIL_SUBDIR = 'versions'

Pre-populate placeholder content for research/personal interests and sidebar:
# Pre-populate placeholder content
CMS_PLACEHOLDER_CONF = {
# ...
'research interests': {
'default_plugins': [
{
'plugin_type': 'TextPlugin',
'values': {
'body':"<p><em>[Enter 'Edit Mode' and double-click here to add your research interests.]</em></p>",
},
},
],

'personal interests': {
'default_plugins': [
