Appropedia:Site development/priorities: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 17:55, 8 July 2011

The following list is transcluded on the Desired features page and Appropedia:How you can help.

High Priority

All our highest priority tasks and all new tasks are placed at BetterMeans - see the "Appropedia Tech" dashboard for a listing of tasks. Look for higher priority tasks, i.e. with a red arrow pointing up, to the right of the "start" button. See also the latest changes and check the sub-workstreams.

Some older tasks remain on this page, but eventually all should be transferred.

Extensions

mw:Manual:wgForeignAPIRepo - allows us to specify another wiki to pull images from.
FCKeditor has a few problems - can you help us to identify the areas of problem code, or even solve any of them?

Fixed

-'''Quick and useful (not worth an OpenPario task)''':
-* [[mw:Manual:$wgNamespacesWithSubpages]] - set true globally, or at the very least for "Appropedia:" namespace.
 === Extensions ===
 * [[mw:Manual:wgForeignAPIRepo]] - allows us to specify another wiki to pull images from.
-* Search for the words ''extension'' and ''manual'' on the [[Appropedia:Site development/Desired features|Desired features]] page to see other items
+* FCKeditor has a [[Appropedia talk:Village pump#How is the rich editor?|few problems]] - can you help us to identify the areas of problem code, or even solve any of them?
-* FlaggedRevisions or whatever Wikipedia went with... so we can let people suggest edits for all pages, even the front page.

-===Wordpress===
-* Forum add-on? (From above, "Social & forum features") Extensions exist but how well do they work? See [https://secure.bettermeans.com/projects/202 Appropedia Forum workstream on BetterMeans]
-** http://simplepressforum.com/ looks very well featured, and integrates with wordpress login. Current thought (discussed [https://secure.bettermeans.com/boards/guess/topics/1105 here]) is to go with [http://simplepressforum.com/ Simple:Press].
-** If we can work out an automatic Wordpress-MediaWiki cross-login, this would be much nicer, less confusing. OpenID behind the scenes?
