[FOSS4G2016] "Your ideas board": hwo to get rid of empty notes

[Gert-Jan van der Weijden - Stichting OSGeo.nl]

Hi homepageteam and PR&M team, 

 

As Till noticed our "Wall of Ideas" gets a bit cluttered with empty notes.

This is due to the decision to make in an "open" board (no registration
required). I decided to remove the "delete" option to prevent users from not
just deleting their own note, but also the notes of others (either by
accident or not).

 

For the time being I suggest to keep it this way, and just have a look every
now and then and delete the empty notes by hand.

You can do this by logging in to NoteApp with the credentials you got last
week (check: did you receive them?) , click on the "foss4g 2016 ideas"
board. The board then opens with full adminstrator access. 

After clicking on the top of an individual note you'll get 4 options, among
of them is one to delete the note.

 

@Till: for the moment I left you out of this administrators group, since I
think it should be enough that the members of the homepageteam and the PR&M
can take care of this. You've already got enough on your plate.

 

 

regards, 

 

Gert-Jan

Onderwerp: [FOSS4G2016] website: "Your ideas board" on the website is
finally up and running.

 

Anja, Carmen, Marc & Codrina,

 

Finally our "your ideas" board is up and running.

It's an external servie (NoteApp) incorporated as an iframe in our site
(article ID 109 in Contao).

You can find it by simply scrolling down the homepage.

 

@Anja, @Carmen: I haven't incorporated it in the menu structure yet. Could
one of you be so kind to do so.

 

Thanks to Till for arranging a free but yet embeddable account with the
NoteApp folks!

 

I've added the 4 of you to the administrators group; you received an email
with the credentials.

At this time anybody can add items without having to log in. Let's see in
the forthcoming weeks if this works well.

If people are leaving spam or other unwanted messages we might consider to
restrict access with a (common) username+password

 

 

Regards, 

 

Gert-Jan (who can now add "experience with Contao" to his resumé...)
