| stas | when you get some time, can you please review and merge my request for light-wordpress-theme? | 16:36 |
| stas | its a tweak kim0 reported and it got fixed yesterday | 16:37 |
| mhall119 | stas: pong | 16:37 |
| mhall119 | stas: if you're the only one working on the wordpress theme, would you rather just maintain the branch yourself? | 16:37 |
| mhall119 | You know more about WP theming than I do, it's kind of silly for me to be reviewing it | 16:38 |
| newz2000 | I'm stumped on a CSS prob | 16:38 |
| newz2000 | try this: in FF, go to http://www.canonical.com/engineering-services/certification/hardware-certification | 16:38 |
| newz2000 | hit print preview | 16:38 |
| stas | mhall119: if you give me access that will spare me buging you all the time :) | 16:38 |
| newz2000 | notice the content is pushed to page 2 and cut off | 16:38 |
| newz2000 | (oops, sorry, didn't mean to butt in) | 16:38 |
| stas | newz2000: what ff? | 16:39 |
| daker | firefox | 16:39 |
| * newz2000 looks | 16:40 | |
| mhall119 | newz2000: could you add stas to ~ubuntu-website-community so he can maintain the WP branch? | 16:40 |
| * daker daker looks too | 16:40 | |
| newz2000 | 3.6.8 | 16:40 |
| newz2000 | mhall119: yes | 16:40 |
| newz2000 | stas: you'll get some bug email | 16:40 |
| mhall119 | not too much | 16:40 |
| stas | newz2000: ok | 16:41 |
| stas | thanks | 16:41 |
| stas | newz2000: http://ubuntuone.com/p/BqV/ on ff 3.6.8 | 16:41 |
| newz2000 | stas: try using print preview | 16:41 |
| newz2000 | it only happens when printing | 16:41 |
| daker | newz2000, yes i see | 16:42 |
| newz2000 | and not in chrome | 16:42 |
| newz2000 | stas: you're part of the team, thanks a bunch for all the work you've done | 16:42 |
| newz2000 | I've had this prob once before, a while back, but I can't remember what fixed it | 16:43 |
| stas | newz2000: thank you for offering this chance, more to come :) | 16:43 |
| newz2000 | stas: some time I'd like to hear about the work your doing on buddy press | 16:44 |
| newz2000 | I have a friend who is really into LMS stuff and we both like the idea behind BP (though not played much with it) | 16:44 |
| stas | newz2000: then im your guy, i would love helping with it | 16:44 |
| newz2000 | is your work to add LMS capability to buddy press? | 16:45 |
| stas | yes | 16:46 |
| stas | actually my work is almost done | 16:46 |
| stas | i added LMS capabilities to social networking layer buddypress has | 16:47 |
| stas | features include: management of courses, assignments + responses/answers, gradebook, bibliography and schedules | 16:47 |
| stas | all tightly integrated into groups | 16:48 |
| newz2000 | stas: do you know someone who will be using it? | 16:48 |
| stas | basically you can now uses groups as classes | 16:48 |
| stas | newz2000: some universities announced using it | 16:48 |
| newz2000 | wow, cool | 16:48 |
| newz2000 | So do you think it will remain a 1-man operation or do you see getting contributions and help from others? | 16:49 |
| stas | also some possible customers already asked me for signing some contracts with them, but I let them wait :) | 16:49 |
| newz2000 | super cool! | 16:49 |
| stas | newz2000: its open sourse, so I'm looking to improve it | 16:49 |
| * newz2000 speaking from experience, it's awesome when your open source work results in getting paid | 16:49 | |
| stas | also my mentors are two teachers, both wordpress / buddypress hackers | 16:49 |
| stas | so I'm sure it will get a community around | 16:49 |
| stas | plus jane wells is directly monitoring it and wants it to become a core component in future | 16:50 |
| newz2000 | I will talk to my friend to see if he's interested in it. He hates Moodle (me too). If so, I'll set him up a server with it on it. | 16:50 |
| daker | newz2000, i think i know what's the problem | 16:52 |
| newz2000 | daker: oh? | 16:53 |
| daker | the third div inside the div with the id column-main | 16:54 |
| newz2000 | me looks | 16:54 |
| newz2000 | daker: the one that wraps around class="row-wrapper-2" ? | 16:55 |
| stas | newz2000: thanks, i would love comitting some buddypress stuff for ubuntu reither with some corporates :) | 16:55 |
| newz2000 | Well, we're using moodle now and hate it | 16:56 |
| newz2000 | I'll play with it, I just sent my friend a msg on facebook | 16:56 |
| daker | newz2000, yes | 16:57 |
| newz2000 | I haven't tried buddy press since around the time it went 1.0 | 16:57 |
| daker | brb | 16:57 |
| mhall119 | stas: you should let #edubuntu know about your LMS stuff | 17:00 |
| * stas fscks mcDonalds public wifi | 17:04 | |
| stas | newz2000: ping me next week (since this weekend i'll be somewhere in Carpathian mountains at a FLOSS event :P) and I can offer you access to my dev instance of buddypress where you can test exisint features | 17:05 |
| newz2000 | ok | 17:06 |
| newz2000 | it may not be until later than that actually, want to finish my current fun proj first. ;-) | 17:06 |
| stas | :) | 17:09 |
| === Turl1 is now known as Turl | ||
| daker | newz2000, try to split the content into multi divs instead of one | 17:10 |
| daker | something like this | 17:11 |
| daker | <div class="pane-content"> | 17:11 |
| daker | <h3>Canonical's certification service</h3> | 17:11 |
| daker | <p>blablabla</p> | 17:11 |
| daker | </div> | 17:11 |
| daker | <div class="pane-content"> | 17:11 |
| daker | <h3>Keep up with Ubuntu</h3> | 17:11 |
| daker | <p>blablabla</p> | 17:11 |
| daker | </div> | 17:11 |
| daker | <div class="pane-content"> | 17:11 |
| daker | <h3>Certification features</h3> | 17:11 |
| daker | <p>blablabla</p> | 17:11 |
| daker | </div> | 17:11 |
| newz2000 | I will try it. | 17:11 |
| daker | so basically the browser can't split the long div when he is trying to print the page | 17:13 |
| daker | i meab this div : <div class="pane-content"> | 17:13 |
| daker | it contains a lot of content | 17:13 |
| newz2000 | I don't know if thats a prob though, I print pages that are wrapped in a single div often | 17:14 |
| daker | well try the solution and we will see | 17:15 |
| newz2000 | ok. I am making notes of things to try next week | 17:15 |
| newz2000 | I just found out yesterday there's a lucid point release scheduled for next week :-/ | 17:16 |
| newz2000 | This will be our first update to the download page since we got the new site | 17:16 |
| daker | newz2000, you are the only one working on ubuntu.com ? | 17:17 |
| newz2000 | yes, at the moment | 17:18 |
| newz2000 | but we're hiring. ;-) | 17:18 |
| daker | poor newz2000 | 17:18 |
| knome | newz2000, remote? | 17:18 |
| newz2000 | knome: at this point the project manager wants someone near London | 17:18 |
| knome | newz2000, okay:/ | 17:19 |
| newz2000 | she's having a bit of a challenge so she's about to compromise to "easy/frequent access to London" I think | 17:19 |
| knome | newz2000, he could pay us the rent of an apartment next to the canonical HQ and i'm in for the job | 17:19 |
| newz2000 | that part of town is very expensive, better aim for somewhere cheaper and a bus pass. ;-) | 17:20 |
| knome | newz2000, as long as canonical pays, shouldn't it be frequent from anywhere? :P | 17:20 |
| newz2000 | presumably frequent from somewhere not expensive to get to London from | 17:20 |
| knome | finland is not too expensive ;) | 17:21 |
| newz2000 | If you think you meet the qualifications, put that in the job descriptions. There are others on that team who commute in for a couple days a week. Just make your salary high enough to cover your costs. | 17:21 |
| newz2000 | So if you can live in Finland cheaper than London and cover the cost of a flat and transport with the diff, you're in good shap | 17:22 |
| newz2000 | shape | 17:22 |
| knome | i doubt my wife will cheer for me applying for that job.. | 17:23 |
| newz2000 | I'm skeptical anyone in this room would love the position we're hiring for. | 17:23 |
| newz2000 | It's more of a content editor, someone in charge of using the cms | 17:23 |
| newz2000 | not dev | 17:23 |
| newz2000 | (though there are some web dev jobs on the website iirc) | 17:24 |
| knome | i kind of might like that more than being a "hard" developer | 17:24 |
| * stas g2g, bye all | 17:24 | |
| newz2000 | later stas | 17:25 |
| knome | tbh, i'm merely playing with the though for the time being, but i imagine that in a few years it might be more of a reality to work abroad, remotely or not | 17:26 |
