RedBrick's new website is incomplete. If you find any broken stuff, please add it to the list!
 
== To-Do ==
 
* Fix up the wiki - Here is some stuff that's wrong with the wiki:
** The wiki can be incredibly slow to load at times.
** There are some bugs, for example - sometimes every single link is underlined, sometimes not.
** The old committee meeting minutes have all disappeared - [[http://wiki.redbrick.dcu.ie/mw/Minutes]].
* The main website can be very slow to load.
* The "bed was shat" error message needs to be removed - it's a tad vulgar and presumably an inside joke (that no-one gets).
* Various pages from the old website are still missing (eg - Standing Orders). You can see them here - [http://web.archive.org/web/20110609123812/http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/about/standing_orders].
* The site has no link to gallery.redbrick.dcu.ie. This is mostly archival stuff as people are unlikely to use it over other services, but it has lots of content and should be linked.
* Gallery also needs to be fixed/updated as the login page is broken - [https://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/~gallery/login/index.php]
* The web boards currently don't remember logins, even if you tick the box.
* The site could be made more accessible for mobile users.
 
== Suggestions ==
 
* Skinning - forum and wiki could both be skinned to match the main site.
* Add scrolling (and filtered) lobby quotes to the homepage. These can also act as a link to webchat.
 
== Completed ==
 
When you complete an item, please move it here, and add your name!
 
* Encyclopedia moved to the wiki [[user:receive|receive]]
* Helpdesk tutorials moved to the wiki - [[user:undone|undone]], [[user:drag0n|drag0n]]
* http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/about/admins/hardware/ should be wikied. It'll be updated far more frequently if it is. [[user:art_wolf|art_wolf]]
* http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/services/userfree/ doesnt work [[user:art_wolf|art_wolf]]
* "Dublin City University Networking Society" is in tiny writing, floating in space & consumed by those large shortcut buttons. The grey text doesn't make it anymore visible either! [[user:art_wolf|art_wolf]]
* /images/blank.gif is missing, ie6 has a nice red 'x' planted over the RB logo [[user:werdz|werdz]]
* A link to http://planet.redbrick.dcu.ie [[user:art_wolf|art_wolf]]
* http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/services/disk/ should be removed, its revealing system and user information [[user:art_wolf|art_wolf]]
* The Boards button on the homepage should be changed to something that works while that system is being developed [[user:art_wolf|art_wolf]]
* Roundcube image does not display fully on webmail front page [[user:art_wolf|art_wolf]]
* Include wiki in the drop down list of things to search [[user:art_wolf|art_wolf]]
* Change main picture, it's still advertising the 10th birthday [[user:art_wolf|art_wolf]]
* Move the icons for the pubcookie page back into /images [[user:art_wolf|art_wolf]]
* Move /chat from the old site to the new one. Claimed by: [[user:phaxx|phaxx]]
* Pubcookie enable chat. (mostly done already, related to above item) Claimed by: [[user:phaxx|phaxx]]
* Atm, KPMG logo is approx 24k (640width) image, though shrunk in the <img> tag. For efficiency it should/can be reduced to a <2k gif at the size it is to be displayed at (140px). -- [[user:werdz|werdz]]
* The font-family bits in the CSS file should have a generic family defined (i.e. "font-family:Tahoma,sans-serif" instead of "font-family:Tahoma") (the site looks odd under ubuntu because Tahoma isn't installed by default so everything shows up in a serif-type font). I'd do it myself but the file belongs to root.. [[user:werdz|werdz]] (thanks phaxx for fixing the permissions)
* Not all pages pass html validation [http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/chat/ chat] [http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/about/stats/ stats] - [[user:werdz|werdz]]
* The wiki should be a vhost - wiki.redbrick.dcu.ie instead of www.redbrick.dcu.ie/~wiki/mw/ [[user:ryaner|ryaner]]
 
== Possibly Obsolete ==
 
Moving these here because they look obsolete. They may already be done or have become irrelevant with new versions of the site. Webgroup can delete or restore them to the main list.

* Should the Encyclopedia be moved over here in some form? It's amusing and has a lot of nice stories about Redbrick's past. I'm not sure if it should be possible for everyone to edit it though, it hasn't been touched in a long time. - [[User:Undone|undone]] 20:04, 17 Dec 2006 (UTC)
* Search results page look needs to be updated [http://www.google.com/u/redbrick?q=redbrick eg]
