Current revision
This is where we'll collate all the ideas for redesigning the Radical Reference site
Contents |
[edit]
Possible Themes
Eric suggested we identify other possible themes for the newly refactored site. One way to do that is to go here and keep hitting random. There's also a giant list on the Drupal site. Click filter by 6.x to look only at themes that are supported on our installation. Jenna 12:19, 31 January 2010 (EST)
- newswire
- fervens
- colorpaper
- genesis webx
- painted
- ifeeldirty
- friendsforever now friendselectric
- amity island
- arthemia see the raggedy edge --from Alycia: I think the text boxes at the top would be interesting to explore; we could separate the pages into links for different users; i.e. "Ask A Question", "Volunteers," etc. with a little text about what each of these pages includes?--I also think it is important to stay away from themes that make the site look really bloggish.
[edit]
Upgrade Notes
- 1/24/10: Easy to do once the php is upgraded to 6, add link to Twitter. Also Facebook? Flickr pool? What else?
Update: On 1/18/10, the site was updated to Drupal 6!
Notes from the 12/19/09 brainstorming/refactoring session. There was also a work session on 1/5/10 -- some notes are at the bottom of the Rad Ref PiratePad.
[edit]
Site Design
- Eric removed the spiral (2/26/10)
- Feedback from a site user (2/8/10):
"it's not 100% clear on the Ask a Question page where to click to actually go to the page where you can ask a question: http://radicalreference.info/node/add/content_question (it only says "question"...)"
- There is also an online survey -- please fill it out so we can get everyone's thoughts and ideas!
[edit]
Website To Do List
- Possible anti-spam solution: Mollom, though Eric has reservations. (MRM, 2/26/10)
- Resolve theming bug (?) that puts the recaptcha above the login fields when you follow the link in comment notifications. (MRM, 2/26/10)
- The lists page needs updating. (MRM, 2/22/10, via jenna)
- Something else for the to-do list regarding content: Re-organize the Radical Reference in the News page so that entries are in reverse chronological order rather than alphabetical by publication. (MRM, 1/6/10)
- Maybe the navigation menu for non-logged-in users could be:
- Create content
- Question
- Local Collectives
- [the collectives]
- Recent posts
- Presentations
- Publications
- Volunteer
- Volunteer guide (MRM, 11/3/09)
[edit]
Notes
(2/9/06) After several responses on the list in favor of the multi-colored tabs, I left them the way they are. JRJ
