Shlomi,

"Latest stable release: 0.49.2" - is a dummy text right now - this website is under construction and at this stage the 'real content' is not the most important thing - in fact Martin asked community members for to check for possible issues related to ..visual impact, usability, or some ideas about design / layout improvements - this is a mandatory step in development before the real content will be posted

the second point - typography and readability - everything looks ok for me ...but there is a CSS clue >> font-family: "Trebuchet MS",Ubuntu,"Liberation Sans",FreeSans,sans-serif;

Depending on your OS or maybe your country location or browser - you probably see a different typeface - I have all those fonts installed, therefore I see TrebuchetMS under Linux Mint in Firefox, you probably see Freesans or sans-serif

Hey Inkscapers,

We've finally got the new django-cms-website onto the staging host and it's ready for some testing. I want testers to be gentle as it's her first time out in public, but I'm trying to get the new website into a release-early/often setting so we can start getting this thing ready for inkscape.org[1].

If you're interested in migrating content from the inkscape.org website over to the new django-cms website, go here: Yay! http://staging.inkscape.org create a new account or log in using google etc, then message me privately and I'll enable you as an admin. This will allow you to edit pages in the cms.

Thanks for your work.

Some comments:

1. It says that "Latest stable release: 0.49.2", but 0.49 was not released

yet.

2. The font under Users, Developers, Recent News, and in the 4

Overview/Features/Gallery/Learning Resources tabs, is smaller than the default font, which makes it unpleasant to read.

Regards,

    Shlomi Fish

When you find problems adding content, because the cms doesn't really support it. File a bug in the inkscape-web project on launchpad: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape-web likewise if you hit a 500 or other kind of error. Missing content isn't a bug though, that's an activity!

Thanks for all your help guys.

Best Regards, Martin Owens

[1] I want the website done before the 0.49 release :-P

Ick. This really ought to be:

<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Ubuntu' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

And then:

font-family: 'Ubuntu', sans-serif;

Yes?

Hey awesome work Martin, I thought this project had fallen dead long ago! If you need a hand on front-end stuff just let me know. :-)

Also, the font in the mockups was Trebuchet - I'd just put font-family: Trebuchet, sans-serif (and some titles were Calluna Regular, a font that's free for personal and commercial use with attribution in the CSS).

Cheers, Hinerangi (duckgoesoink)

Please report a bug to https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape-web and include a screenshot if possible to indicate the problem.

I filed a separate report on this.

(also I tried to reply to the list earlier and it bounced - I'm hoping that was just a fluke)

Absolutely.

I've put together a detailed explanation and how-to so people can jump right into editing and development of any front end or css/template work. I encourage you to give it a go and see if you can fix the reported css issue.

http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/WebSite

Developers should be able to use the information to do any pythonic changes too.

Hi Martin and Inkscapers,

Today I have done some migrating. I wonder if it is good to add a section like "Get Involved" or "Contribute"? It might contain the information currently on the wiki about how to help Inkscape with and without coding.

...

I would also like to help with translating into Chinese. What is the process I should follow. Is it still the same as here?

We're not sure yet. There are possibly two levels to translations. One is the website's templates which usethe django translation service and need to be committed to the code. and the other is the CMS content itself which needs to be written into the website like the rest of the content.

We're hoping that with your (and others) help we can figure it out and rewrite that wiki page.

I would like to do this. How do I start adding Chinese versions of the pages in CMS? (and add the Chinese flag icon in the language select)

Another question about migrating to the new website. How do I edit the news to add some of the recent items from the old website.

Cheers, Jiabao
