| svaksha | The admin/modules has "contact" - Enables the use of personal contact forms. Can this be enabled to allow people to contact us via email ? | 07:57 |
| LaserJock | possibly | 07:59 |
| svaksha | do you think its a good idea to enable that ? possible issues : spam | 08:00 |
| === svaksha thinks you are rocking the fridge :) | ||
| svaksha | If its enabled , will it affect all the editors? i dont want to do that without asking other ed's | 08:03 |
| LaserJock | thanks | 08:05 |
| LaserJock | there's a lot more that can be done too | 08:05 |
| LaserJock | I just gotta pace myself | 08:05 |
| LaserJock | ;_) | 08:05 |
| LaserJock | :-) rather | 08:05 |
| LaserJock | svaksha: I tried enabling it on my site | 08:16 |
| LaserJock | and it seems to only provide a contact form for logged in users | 08:16 |
| svaksha | ...hmmm, not sure i understand what is :a contact form for logged in users | 08:18 |
| LaserJock | like, it only presented the contact form menu item when a user was logged in to drupal | 08:19 |
| LaserJock | so for instance I could contact you, etc. | 08:20 |
| === svaksha thinks of the spam i already get from f-devel list being open | ||
| svaksha | ok, say , i am logged in now, then how will a reader get in touch with me ? | 08:20 |
| svaksha | or is it between admins | 08:20 |
| LaserJock | it's between logged in users | 08:20 |
| LaserJock | if we had more than just admins it'd be useful | 08:20 |
| svaksha | hmm...so its only for admins | 08:21 |
| LaserJock | well, you can have more than just admins in drupal | 08:21 |
| svaksha | iirc, we all have same privs | 08:21 |
| LaserJock | well, that's just by design | 08:21 |
| svaksha | so all are admins, supereds | 08:21 |
| svaksha | yep | 08:21 |
| LaserJock | you could have readers sign up too | 08:21 |
| svaksha | that was not within the original design of the fridge | 08:21 |
| svaksha | that is what i learnt .... | 08:22 |
| LaserJock | sure, I don't think it's a good idea | 08:22 |
| LaserJock | but I'm saying that's one way the contact form thingy would work | 08:22 |
| svaksha | yep | 08:22 |
| LaserJock | but it's a good point | 08:22 |
| LaserJock | I wonder if we could have some sort of email address/contact form | 08:22 |
| svaksha | i too dislike the spammy/flamey nature of digg and slashdot, its like people cant have different opinions without others pounding them. | 08:23 |
| svaksha | we do have the fridge-devel, and open list anyone can post to | 08:23 |
| LaserJock | it's entirely unobvious how a person would give feedback or even contribute a story | 08:23 |
| svaksha | s/and/an | 08:23 |
| LaserJock | but you have to know fridge-devel exists | 08:23 |
| svaksha | yep we keep publicising that , yet few volunteers send us stories. | 08:24 |
| LaserJock | there is nothing on fridge itself, that I can see | 08:24 |
| svaksha | usually its just links so one of the eds has to go read, write and then do some work on it | 08:24 |
| svaksha | :) kinda longish but then..... | 08:24 |
| LaserJock | well, maybe I can hit up some MOTUs for some stories | 08:25 |
| svaksha | we have done stories in the past but it gets bumped down and people forget. | 08:25 |
| LaserJock | and I'm hoping to get some good stuff from some Edubuntu people | 08:26 |
| svaksha | http://fridge.ubuntu.com/about | 08:26 |
| LaserJock | the main guy I'm thinking of is in Kenya on vacation at the moment though | 08:26 |
| svaksha | hey that would be so cool | 08:26 |
| === svaksha pats herself for getting LaserJock on the team | ||
| LaserJock | hehe | 08:26 |
| svaksha | :) | 08:26 |
| LaserJock | well, I gotta take off for the night | 08:27 |
| LaserJock | I might get a story in tomorrow | 08:27 |
| svaksha | last year one of the Motu's mentioned that they dont have the time so I didnt think it was nice to bug them | 08:27 |
| svaksha | hey before you leave, what do you think of doing a small course for ubuntu-women | 08:27 |
| LaserJock | depends on the MOTU I guess | 08:27 |
| LaserJock | me doing it? | 08:28 |
| svaksha | i was going to mail you about it but this is better | 08:28 |
| LaserJock | what subject? | 08:28 |
| svaksha | no, they are very advanced, what i am thinking is more simpler stuff...prolly i shall mail you and you can think about it | 08:28 |
| svaksha | yes you Jordan | 08:29 |
| svaksha | can i mail you ? i am working on the same thing now so .... | 08:29 |
| LaserJock | yes, email me | 08:30 |
| LaserJock | gotta run | 08:30 |
| LaserJock | good night | 08:30 |
| svaksha | thanks, goodnight then | 08:30 |

| svaksha | currently the admins dont have a visible login block, would'nt it be nicer to have that on the main page? | 09:11 |
| svaksha | i see that user login is currently disabled, so is it ok to enable that to allow admins access ? | 09:12 |
| Burgundavia | we can go to /users fine | 09:12 |
| Burgundavia | and might I ask who you are? | 09:12 |
| svaksha | vid, one of the fridge admins | 09:13 |
| Burgundavia | ahh, oik | 09:13 |
| Burgundavia | ok, rather | 09:13 |
| svaksha | :) | 09:13 |
| Burgundavia | I have never seen your nick, so I was a little bit surprised | 09:14 |
| Burgundavia | as for login, probably better to leave it as it is | 09:14 |
| svaksha | its the same as email but then i dont make much noise either:) | 09:14 |
| Burgundavia | ahh | 09:15 |
| svaksha | prolly ..but newer ed's sometimes wonder how to login , so i thought this will be nicer | 09:15 |
| Burgundavia | right | 09:15 |
| Burgundavia | maybe we should produce a doc on teh wiki about how to edit the Fridge? | 09:15 |
| svaksha | prolly, but how many times do people read doc's ? | 09:16 |
| === svaksha thinks rarely | ||
| Burgundavia | if we tell them to read them, they will | 09:16 |
| svaksha | maybe, maybe not since there is so much docu floating around that they are likely to get confused and bogged down even more. | 09:17 |
| === svaksha thinking out loud | ||
| svaksha | what about "who's new and "who's online" | 09:17 |
| svaksha | if we enable that then people can see how many people are online and so on | 09:18 |
