Can this be enabled to allow people to contact us via email ? [07:59] possibly [08:00] do you think its a good idea to enable that ? possible issues : spam === svaksha thinks you are rocking the fridge :) [08:03] If its enabled , will it affect all the editors? i dont want to do that without asking other ed's [08:05] thanks [08:05] there's a lot more that can be done too [08:05] I just gotta pace myself [08:05] ;_) [08:05] :-) rather [08:16] svaksha: I tried enabling it on my site [08:16] and it seems to only provide a contact form for logged in users [08:18] ...hmmm, not sure i understand what is :a contact form for logged in users [08:19] like, it only presented the contact form menu item when a user was logged in to drupal [08:20] so for instance I could contact you, etc. === svaksha thinks of the spam i already get from f-devel list being open [08:20] ok, say , i am logged in now, then how will a reader get in touch with me ? [08:20] or is it between admins [08:20] it's between logged in users [08:20] if we had more than just admins it'd be useful [08:21] hmm...so its only for admins [08:21] well, you can have more than just admins in drupal [08:21] iirc, we all have same privs [08:21] well, that's just by design [08:21] so all are admins, supereds [08:21] yep [08:21] you could have readers sign up too [08:21] that was not within the original design of the fridge [08:22] that is what i learnt .... [08:22] sure, I don't think it's a good idea [08:22] but I'm saying that's one way the contact form thingy would work [08:22] yep [08:22] but it's a good point [08:22] I wonder if we could have some sort of email address/contact form [08:23] i too dislike the spammy/flamey nature of digg and slashdot, its like people cant have different opinions without others pounding them. [08:23] we do have the fridge-devel, and open list anyone can post to [08:23] it's entirely unobvious how a person would give feedback or even contribute a story [08:23] s/and/an [08:23] but you have to know fridge-devel exists [08:24] yep we keep publicising that , yet few volunteers send us stories. [08:24] there is nothing on fridge itself, that I can see [08:24] usually its just links so one of the eds has to go read, write and then do some work on it [08:24] :) kinda longish but then..... [08:25] well, maybe I can hit up some MOTUs for some stories [08:25] we have done stories in the past but it gets bumped down and people forget. [08:26] and I'm hoping to get some good stuff from some Edubuntu people [08:26] http://fridge.ubuntu.com/about [08:26] the main guy I'm thinking of is in Kenya on vacation at the moment though [08:26] hey that would be so cool === svaksha pats herself for getting LaserJock on the team [08:26] hehe [08:26] :) [08:27] well, I gotta take off for the night [08:27] I might get a story in tomorrow [08:27] 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] hey before you leave, what do you think of doing a small course for ubuntu-women [08:27] depends on the MOTU I guess [08:28] me doing it? [08:28] i was going to mail you about it but this is better [08:28] what subject? [08:28] no, they are very advanced, what i am thinking is more simpler stuff...prolly i shall mail you and you can think about it [08:29] yes you Jordan [08:29] can i mail you ? i am working on the same thing now so .... [08:30] yes, email me [08:30] gotta run [08:30] good night [08:30] thanks, goodnight then === Burgundavia [n=corey@ubuntu/member/burgundavia] has joined #ubuntu-fridge [09:11] currently the admins dont have a visible login block, would'nt it be nicer to have that on the main page? [09:12] i see that user login is currently disabled, so is it ok to enable that to allow admins access ? [09:12] we can go to /users fine [09:12] and might I ask who you are? [09:13] vid, one of the fridge admins [09:13] ahh, oik [09:13] ok, rather [09:13] :) [09:14] I have never seen your nick, so I was a little bit surprised [09:14] as for login, probably better to leave it as it is [09:14] its the same as email but then i dont make much noise either:) [09:15] ahh [09:15] prolly ..but newer ed's sometimes wonder how to login , so i thought this will be nicer [09:15] right [09:15] maybe we should produce a doc on teh wiki about how to edit the Fridge? [09:16] prolly, but how many times do people read doc's ? === svaksha thinks rarely [09:16] if we tell them to read them, they will [09:17] maybe, maybe not since there is so much docu floating around that they are likely to get confused and bogged down even more. === svaksha thinking out loud [09:17] what about "who's new and "who's online" [09:18] if we enable that then people can see how many people are online and so on [09:19] http://fridge.ubuntu.com/admin/block/configure/user/3 === svaksha [n=svksh@unaffiliated/svaksha] has joined #ubuntu-fridge === svaksha [n=svksh@unaffiliated/svaksha] has joined #ubuntu-fridge === beuno_ [n=martin@200.127.67.94] has joined #ubuntu-fridge === LaserJock [n=mantha@ubuntu/member/laserjock] has joined #ubuntu-fridge === svaksha [n=svksh@unaffiliated/svaksha] has left #ubuntu-fridge []
