Huh, after a copy/paste of an article, files and images are lost, when
cutting/pasting an article keeps files and images. What's going on ?

    We're sorry for this but this is not - technically speaking - a
    PloneArticle bug, but an Archetypes **feature** that clears all
    ReferenceField on copy/paste and there's no easy way to work
    around this as long as Archetypes doesn't provide support to keep
    the references on copy/paste.
    Please read following guru discussions about this issue :

    * http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.web.zope.plone.archetypes.devel/3557

Why did the choice of allowable content types for the main text
disappear from the configlet in the 3.2.1 version ?

    Kupu that ships with Plone 2.1.3 checks the
    "allowed_content_types" field attribute. "allowed_content_types"
    cannot be a ComputedAttribute any more the way kupu uses this
    attribute. See https://dev.plone.org/plone/ticket/5576 for
    detailed explanations about this issue.
    You might now change the value of TEXT_ALLOWABLE_CONTENT_TYPES in
    congig.py if you want to restrict the allowed types. Be sure to
    keep 'text/html' in that list anyway.

Why do I have to install ZAttachmentAttribute and ZAAPlugins ?

    You do not have to install those products with PloneArticle v3.
    Instead, you CAN install PloneExFile and AttachmentField if you want.
    ZAttachmentAttribute and ZAAPlugins are required only if you want
    to migrate from PloneArticle v2.x

Why do I have to install PloneExFile and AttachmentField ?

    Instaling PloneExFile and AttachmentField are not strictly
    required, but those products add great features to the
    PloneArticle.

How can I make my attachments indexed and previewable by my website ?
    
    Have a look at the PloneArticle configuration panel. All's there.

How can i add a PloneArticle ?

    Under the Plone site, in a folder of Plone where you
    have the rights. Select PloneArticle in the list of item
    and click 'add item'.

Why does the wysiwyg editor not appear ?

    Depending on the wysiwyg editor you have installed, it can only be
    used with Internet Explorer
    (Epoz is working fine with IE and Mozilla latest version).
    If you are using it, check your personnal setting to see which
    default kind of editor you have chosen (text or editor).</li>

Can I edit my article after writing it ?

    Yes, just as with any another Plone document.

Why after a copy paste from a Microsoft Word file, is the rendering of
my article unordered ?

    It is recommended to do an html tidy to clean the html code.
    You should consult the 
    <a href="http://plone.fr/download/plone-end-user.pdf" target="_blank" >
    Plone end-user documentation
    </a>
    (only available in french) for more information.

How can i add a new PloneArticleModel ?

    You should create it using an already existing model template.
    Place it somewhere in the plone skin path (for ex :
    PloneArticle/skins/PloneArticle).

    The first part of the template (in the &lt;div
    class="description"&gt;) is the description of what your model is
    proposing to users.

    It is also adviced to furnish an image representing a preview of
    the model template.

    The second part (in &lt;div
    metal:define-macro="Plone2ArticleModel"&gt;) is the layout that
    will be used.

    Note that the metal:define-macro="PloneArticleModel" (or
    metal:define-macro="Plone2ArticleModel") is VERY important. It is
    used to recognize a new model and propose it to users.

    Don't forget that css for Plone 1 and Plone 2 are different.
    Enable user to choose this model by selecting it in the portal_article.
