Website Language Additions
by Martin Owens 15 Feb '15

15 Feb '15

Hey WebDevs, Now that Maren has fixed the language selection issues we were having/ Both the redirect on missing pages and the error with news and search page urls with new languages. We have the opportunity to configure a short admin side list of languages. This is more of a feature request/definition but it would work like this: A list of all languages, their english names and their translated names (just in case they're missing from the core pot) a checkbox for if we want them to be hidden from the menu. We can do this where we want auto detection to pick a language, but not display every language possible in the menu. (or we could have a 'more languages...' link at the bottom) The service would still need restarting to take advantage of the new language, much in the same way as menu updates have to refresh the cache. Thoughts? Martin,

Code of Conduct Vote
by Martin Owens 13 Feb '15

13 Feb '15

Dear Board, The website's code of conduct text needs redrafting and formally voting on. It should be a document reflecting the social norms we have and that these would be in force on the website with moderation and art submissions. This is what we have so far, it's a bit of a fragment paste bin at the moment: https://inkscape.org/en/community/coc/ We could do with the help from a friendly inkscape docs contributor to draft it into something usable as well as the inkscape board to ratify it with a vote. Thanks for all your help. Best Regards, Martin Owens

complaint about translation
by Brynn 05 Feb '15

05 Feb '15

Hi Friends, I saw this message in InkscapeForum http://www.inkscapeforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=18053&p=68680#p68643 and answered it the best I could. But the complaint about the Slovenian translation seems troubling -- the part where 0.91 does not have as much translated content as 0.48.5 had. So I just wanted to let you know. Maybe should be a bug report, but I'll leave that up to you all :-) All best, brynn

official tutorials titles, Tutorials page links
by Brynn 04 Feb '15

04 Feb '15

Hi again, I'm sorry that I don't understand exactly how this works. But I don't seem to have the ability to edit those official tutorials. I noticed that some of their titles aren't quite right. As below: Basic tutorial -- ok Advanced tutorial -- ok Shapes tutorial -- ok Bitmap tracing tutorial -- "Inkscape tutorial: Tracing" should be "Inkscape tutorial: Tracing Bitmaps" Calligraphy tutorial -- ok Elements of Design tutorial -- "Inkscape tutorial: Elements" should be "Inkscape tutorial: Elements of Design" Tips and Tricks tutorial -- "Inkscape tutorial: " should be "Inkscape tutorial: Tips and Tricks" Interpolate tutorial -- ok Also, it looks like the links on the Tutorials page aren't made with the plug-in. I'll be glad to get those ready today, if you like. Thanks, brynn

which faq should Help menu open/link to?
by Brynn 02 Feb '15

02 Feb '15

Hi Friends, The FAQ item in the Help menu caught my attention just now, and I notice it opens or links to the faq in the wiki. Since we now have a new, and more user oriented faq on the website, I wonder if it should link there, instead? Thoughts, comments? Thanks, brynn

bug report not in proper account
by Brynn 01 Feb '15

01 Feb '15

Hi Martin and Maren, I just happened to notice this bug report in the regular Inkscape Launchpad account: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1416778. I guess you all already pay enough attention to all the bugs, and you will see it eventually. But in this case, early in the new release, with this complaint, I wanted to make sure you didn't miss it. Probably I dont....but if I do have the right kind of access, is there a way I can sort of "send" this report to the Inkscape-web account? brynn

ready to translate
by Brynn 31 Jan '15

31 Jan '15

Hi Maren and Martin, Unless you find any errors (and please feel free to check), the new Learn, Community, and FAQ pages are up on live, linked with the plug-in, and ready to translate. Also, on the faq, the span is removed from the h4s. Martin said to leave alone the span where they were in a list item (unless I misunderstood). So there are still some span ids in the list items. The only outstanding issue is that there is no link to the manual for the new Measurement tool (item B.8.), because it hasn't been written yet (at least not as of last night). Another minor issue is on Community page under IRC, this link: irc://irc.freenode.org/#inkscape. I'm not very familiar with that kind of link, so I didn't have any clues how to fix it, when the plug-in reported there is an error with it ("not valid", I think it said). So I just left that as is. I don't know if the problem is the plug-in or the link. But it seems to work as is, so that's why I left it with <a href>. Beyond those issues, you may particularly want to have a look at the Contribute section (D.) since it changed drastically, after putting its content on Contribute page, and the new Promote page. If I could use rich text, I'd put in a happy dance smiley or 2! Thanks, brynn PS - Martin recently mentioned about announcing changes to the website in the mailing list, but I'm not clear exactly what kind of changes. Do you want me to post a message for this? It seems like there have been a lot of fairly significant changes lately, so maybe there should be a summary, or something..... But again, I wasn't completely clear what he meant -- maybe meant code changes? TA :-)

time to finish my new pages now!
by Brynn 31 Jan '15

31 Jan '15

Ok, now that 0.91 is ready, I'll be transferring the content from my new Community, Learn, and FAQ pages to the live site, and start fixing the links. I won't publish until I have all the links fixed. But, before I get too far into the faq, I just want to make sure you don't want me to fix the id links. Thanks, brynn

Table of Contents
by Martin Owens 29 Jan '15

29 Jan '15

Dear all, In trunk I've just committed a new website plugin, djangocms-toc. It's quite new and will need fixing as it's tested but this is what it does so far: 1. If placed into a text plugin, it will generate a table of contents for that plugin. 2. If placed outside, it'll pick the first plugin/placeholder. 3. The toc is generated using the html header tags in order 4. If the header tag itself has an id, then a local link <a href="#id"> is created. 5. Otherwise no link is created. a. You can pick a title (h2) for the table of contents. b. You can choose if you want bullets or numbers c. The whole toc is within a <div id='toc'> tag for easier styling later on. Thoughts? Best Regards, Martin Owens
