Capacity Map changes [Blog: Changelog]
2004-05-20 15:27:00

I think we are about there on the map. Much nicer now that there is a menu on the right showing where they have updated their entry.

Can you take off the duplicate navigation at the top? Now that it is on the right I think it is too much to also have it on the top.

Can you also add an (other) category in the focus drop down menu on this page? http://erider.cult.bg/network/eriders/profile/index2.php?view=project

On this page http://erider.cult.bg/network/eriders/profile/index2.php?view=contact spell address with two s at the end not one:)

Can we make it so I can add a little explanatory text at the top of all the related profile and capacity map pages?

I think once that is done we can make the change on the public site. Seems well tested.

Once it is on the live site then please take off these pages:

http://erider.cult.bg/network/join/
http://erider.cult.bg/network/search/
http://erider.cult.bg/network/eriders/

The new capacity map should live here and be called Find an eRider:

http://erider.cult.bg/network/eriders/

Once that is done then next steps seem to be for me to write a note to the registered site users and interider list members encouraging them to update their entry. I plan to tell them that if they do not update their entry in 30 days then we will delete them as users. They can always re register.

Next step I am thinking to take is to create a new list for distribution of the newsletter and site change announcements only. Right now only the interider discussion list gets the newsletter and site updates but there are a ton of site users who are not on the list. I do not want to force them to join the list. To start I will take all the registered users and all the members of the list and subscribe them to this new list. They can then unsubscribe if they do not want site updates or the newsletter.

Could we figure out a way so that when they register on the site an email gets generated that subscribes them to the list? Can we add a link on the main nav to Get Site Updates and have it link to the new list?

Requested updates [Blog: Changelog]
2004-03-26 08:22:00

1) Change tab order for entering the site (IS)
- done.

2) Change photo montage images. Get permission from folks who are in the photos you want to use. (IS)
- Kaladan will work on this.

3) Allow for folks to upload and select their own user icon (IS)
- done.

4) Create a capacity map of individual eRiders, organizations and projects. Allow them to upload a photo/group photo of their project. This is kind of what we are talking about...
But we should be able to display this graphically or at least more appealingly.

Imagine an NGO coming to the site or a funder or another eRider who wants to find an eRider in a specific country or with a specific specialty. Should have space for a short bio or description of project. This is a combination of the existing map and the eRider roster. (IS and TC)
- looking for solution on the matter.

5) Change eRider Roster to - Find an eRider (IS)
- done.

6) Password recovery. Make this more clear. (IS)
- imposible to implement. Passwords are hased in database.

7) Remove folks names on postings for now (IS)
- done.

8) Automatically give new registered users permission for everything except blogs. Still send a notification email of new users. (IS)
- done.

9) Automatically approve postings - news, resources, stories (IS)
- done.

10) Create a new eRider TRAINING resources section...not sure if we can use existing section for these things. Ian has created a whole thing on training for trainers. Rudi is creating one on training new eRiders. (TC to try and use existing structure first)
- done.

11) Begin to direct questions to the discussion list instead of
answering them ourselves (TC and IS)
- we should discuss this with Kaladan.

12) Create a more user friendly posting section like a community posting section that is less slick and unedited to encourage others to post. We should talk about this more. (TC and IS)
- we should discuss this with Kaladan.
