Problems with launched site design

  • kinkade dump db, get the db dump into cc.fab site (kinkade and rejon)
    • live changes to content then authoritatively come on the main live site
    • theme changes go to cc.fab site, then svn commit, and then svn up on live site (done)
  • The comments form on blog posts uses obsolete CSS rules that require work-arounds (such as using an ol for the fields). The form needs to be updated to use <fieldset> and <label> instead (cxadams) (FIXED)
    • its the comments.php file in the theme
  • On the comments both the Share on Twitter / Tags have obsolete styling (cxadams) (Moved to issue tracker)
  • When you are not logged in, below the Submit button on the blog post comments, there appears the text "Input error: Invalid referer" (rejon) (Moved to issue tracker)
  • (FIXED) power of open carousel image should link to thepowerofopen.org not the blog post
  • /board page needs spacing between photos and text (rejon)
  • various bolding issues in carousel (cxadams)
  • WP issue - makes you log in anew every time you want to do something new, ie. edit a post, upload a photo. what is up w/that? (rejon)
  • Each page should have a right-hand column with a list of links to the other pages in the same section (e.g. About, Licenses) (cxadams)
    • fix with noscript tag possibly to link sections, but do after bug fixes
  • /board page doesn't have correct styling. List of people is vertical, but should have a horizontal component. (rejon)
  • after jon verifies fucked pages with kinkade, then hand off style conversion to the theme by extracting style from pages onto theme (rejon + nkinkade then cxadams)
  • the about/downloads page is not linked to from anywhere top-level (you can get there via News » Press Room » Downloads)
  • a more user-friendly way to say "Licensors" and "Licensees" under License tab up top. suggested alternative text for Licensors could be "Share your work" and for Licensees "Reuse a work" or "Reuse others works".
  • creativecommons.net needs to be updated with same theme in time for launch Oct 11
