ScottLi had ubiquity fail on an xubuntu install that i downloaded last night15:44
pleia2knome: have some time soon to talk website stuff?19:42
* pleia2 is home all day, recovering from flu19:42
knomesure19:44
knomehow about now? ;)19:44
pleia2sure19:45
knomeso all the code-stuff can be considered done now19:45
knomeexcept one thing19:45
pleia2I updated https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Website and as far as I know all the todo items are still outstanding19:45
knomethe "latest news" column doesn't have the subscription links19:45
knomethis isn't blocker19:46
knomewe can add them later, or decide to add them elsewhere19:46
knomeif we want them there, i need to poke the code a bit19:46
pleia2subscription links, like for RSS feed?19:46
knomeyeah19:47
knomeand the email19:47
pleia2the email thing is silly I think, but we should link RSS and Older Posts somewhere obvious19:47
knomefooter?19:47
pleia2yeah, that could do19:47
knomei mean19:47
pleia2maybe replace Meta19:47
knomerss in the footer19:47
knomeolder posts can be listed in the non-frontpage pages in the sidebar19:48
knomemeta is removed altogether19:48
pleia2ah yes, it is19:48
pleia2good19:48
pleia2what is the older posts link?19:49
knomei mean, we can *list* them :)19:49
pleia2currently wp.xubuntu.org/i_like_cookies even works so it's hard to figure out ;)19:49
knomeor print the categories19:49
knomeor whatever19:49
knomelol19:50
knomedang19:50
knomei actually need to touch the repository one more time19:50
knome:|19:50
pleia2there was talk of a link to an archives page which lists the stubs by date19:51
pleia2(sort of standard wordpress archives thing)19:51
knomehmhm, can you point me to one of those?19:51
knomeor do you just mean the post listings19:51
pleia2http://princessleia.com/journal/?m=20110519:51
knomemmh. yeah19:52
knomedo we want an archive with excerpts?19:52
pleia2I think so19:52
knomeright...19:52
knomeso that's an another thing i need to do19:52
pleia2is the footer static in the theme?19:52
knomeno19:53
knomeit runs with widgets19:53
pleia2ok cool, so I can make the updates to change "Xubuntu Links" to "Useful Links"19:53
knomeuep19:53
knome*yep19:53
knomeyou should edit the menus19:53
pleia2and what should be in "Quick Links" on every page?19:53
pleia2it's empty now19:54
knomei suppose the three links that are in the left side of the footer19:54
knomeunder that, we could add the post archives + stuff19:54
knomehttp://wp.xubuntu.org/wp-admin/nav-menus.php19:54
knometo edit the menus in footer19:54
knomethat should update the menu everywhere :)19:54
pleia2cool, thanks19:55
knomesidebar fixed19:55
knomepartly19:55
knomei'll fix the images19:55
knomei think we want the small ones for all the places, right?19:55
knomei mean, the size in the footer19:55
knomejust looks so much cleaner19:55
pleia2I think the big ones are ok19:55
pleia2are you seeing overlapping of the quick links on the main page?19:56
knomethey are maybe a bit too big19:56
pleia2(might just be chrome)19:56
knomeyup! that's the thing i need to fix19:56
pleia2ok good19:56
knomewhat about something in between?19:56
pleia2sure19:56
knomeokay19:56
knomei'll do that then19:56
pleia2can we get a 404 page instead of defaulting to show the archives? (it's confusing)19:56
knomeand maybe increase the text size19:57
knomeso they fit together better19:57
* pleia2 nods19:57
knomehmm. i'm not sure why something that is happening, is happening19:57
knomei need to investigate19:57
pleia2oh, and do we have a site map?19:57
knomemmh, nope.19:57
knomebut i hope to be able to get all pages linked in the front page19:58
knomeand the sidebar too19:58
pleia2ok, so no need for a site map then19:58
knomeso we don't actually need one19:58
knomeyeah19:58
pleia2I don't know if /press is linked anywhere19:58
knomethat's why there are three columns under the screenshots19:58
knomewe still have one not used19:58
pleia2cool19:59
knomeso just create a new menu, and add a widget to that area printing the menu19:59
* knome should update xubuntu.yourdomain.com with the newest plugin/theme :)20:03
pleia2k20:04
knomeugh, what was the local path again20:05
knomeah, found it20:05
knomeok, done20:08
knomewe're running most recent stuff20:09
knomehttp://xubuntu.princessleia.com/20:15
knomehow does that look now?20:16
pleia2ah, that's good :)20:16
knomeyeah20:16
knomei think it's an improvement20:16
knomenot TOO big :)20:16
pleia2my brain is full of fail today, FOCUS20:25
knomehehe20:25
pleia2knome: what do you think about this, I moved the menus around http://wp.xubuntu.org/20:41
knomeworks for me20:42
knomemaybe the links in "news links" could be a bit longer20:42
knomelike20:42
knome"Xubuntu in the Press"20:42
pleia2bah, I mixed everything up20:42
knome"Browse the News archive"20:43
pleia2ok20:43
knome"Subscribe to our RSS feed"20:43
knomejust that it doens't look so empty :)20:43
* pleia2 nods20:43
pleia2there we go20:44
knomegreat20:45
pleia2ok, updated https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Xubuntu/Website20:49
pleia2so I think we just need summary-style archives page and a 404 page20:49
knomeyup20:49
knomei'm on the excerpts20:50
pleia2comments are silly, I think we want to default to disabling them20:52
knomeokay20:53
pleia2hooray for bulk edit20:53
knomehttp://xubuntu.princessleia.com/i_like_cookies20:56
knomeit's a problem in the xubuntu.org hosting20:56
pleia2annoying20:57
pleia2ok, all the key pages are now linked from the front page20:59
knomedo we ever want comments?21:04
knomeif not, i'll just remove all the code related to those21:04
knomeso we'll fallback to default21:04
knomethat's done :P21:06
pleia2yeah, no comments ever21:06
knomehttp://xubuntu.princessleia.com/2011/08/21:17

pleia2cool21:42
knomewell, i need to tweak the js code a bit21:42
knomeother than that, everything should be fine21:42
ochosihm, just one tiny comment: in the quick-links, could the icons also be recolored on hover?21:43
ochosioh, the fact that i get a horizontal scrollbar on the page after the first pic slides away, is that the bug you were referring to?21:45
knomeochosi, bug:yup21:50
knomeochosi, hover: maybe21:50
