[13:37] sayakb: hello [13:37] boredandblogging: hello! [13:37] (finally :D) [13:37] we keep missing each other [13:37] timezone :) [13:38] boredandblogging: so how do we start? : [13:39] sayakb: one second [13:39] ok, you should now be part of the LP ubuntu-fridge team [13:39] go to fridge.ubuntu.com [13:40] on the left sidebar [13:40] logging in via openID [13:40] there should be a login page [13:40] yes [13:40] in [13:41] after logging in, should return you back to the frontpage [13:41] yes, back [13:41] near the top, there should be a contribute link [13:41] contribute -> story [13:42] that is some good drupal customization there.. [13:42] so I now have a submit story" page [13:42] you only need to fill out title, select a topic, fill out the body [13:42] at the bottom [13:42] do you see "Publishing options" ? [13:42] checked published :) [13:42] no [13:42] ah [13:43] oops [13:43] yeah, its fine [13:44] make sure it looks fine [13:44] you don't see a promoted to front page checkbox under publishing options? [13:44] I do [13:44] should that be checked? [13:44] yes, only after you have made absolutely sure everything is exactly the way you want it [13:45] after previewing, then submit [13:45] I just hit preiew with none of the publishing options checked.. [13:45] thats fine [13:45] ..just to make sure that the html tags dont misbehave :) [13:45] that way we can login and just see it [13:45] right [13:46] for topics [13:46] LoCo teams should be it I guess? [13:46] sayakb: yes [13:46] okay [13:46] and if you wanted it cross-posted on the planet [13:47] there is a PlanetUbuntu topic [13:47] yes, I see it [13:47] I think it is pretty much good to go. Should I publish the post? [13:48] (and can you take a quick look that I did it right? :) ) [13:48] yeah, go ahead [13:49] what is the "create new revision" do? something like the moin page revision? [13:49] s/is/does [13:49] probably, never tried it though [13:49] boredandblogging: http://fridge.ubuntu.com/node/1840 [13:49] ok [13:50] looks good [13:50] I would suggest one change [13:50] sweet! :) [13:50] sure [13:50] capitalize the first letters in the title [13:51] done [13:51] excellent! [13:52] so that would be the way to go for a new post. How many submissions from non members of the team do we have? [13:53] and what all are the policies that are followed before the post is approved? [13:53] there are some of us who find relevant information and post it outselves [13:54] s/outselves/ourselves [13:54] getting submissions is something we need to work [13:54] sounds good. would be looking forward to that [13:54] for policies, let people in here know what you want to post [13:55] if someone says its ok, then go for it :-) [13:55] sounds like a plan :) [13:56] boredandblogging: thank you for setting up the membership and helping with the post. [13:56] no problem, hope you post often! [13:57] as you already know, I have this timezone issue. I'll find you/other news team members by mail in most cases [13:57] I am on IRC for about 8 hours a day, but that would be the time the other side of the world sleeps :) [13:59] sayakb: feel free to post on the ubuntu-news-team list as well [13:59] yes, will definitely do that before adding a new story [14:02] cool === tyche_ is now known as tyche === beuno_ is now known as beuno [21:16] joey: ping [21:16] hi nick [21:17] joey: hey, got a sec? [21:19] boredandblogging, on an off yes. I'm actually on the phone with cody :-) What's up? I saw the double post that sakya did [21:20] joey: double post? missed that [21:20] he made an edit and pushed to the front page twice [21:20] ahhh [21:20] which caused a double entry in rss [21:20] bah [21:20] yeah newbie error [21:21] :-)
