Website To-Do List

RedBrick's new website is incomplete. If you find any broken stuff, please add it to the list!

To-Do

• /images/blank.gif is missing, ie6 has a nice red 'x' planted over the RB logo
• Should the help tutorials be moved onto the wiki?

Yes, helpdesk are already intending to do this and other things. Best to leave this item for them, they have Plans with a capital Pee. --Phaxx 15:03, 25 May 2006 (IST)

• http://planet.redbrick.dcu.ie should be updated to match style of new site

When I helped set it up I just linked to the main site's CSS and now thats gone with the new RB site so now it's broken. --The Dead One 10:30, 25 May 2006 (IST)

All the origional CSS files are still in their origional location. art_wolf

• If the browser is resized down, the right panel (and, eventually, the middle) disappear down the page.
• "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!
• Add pictures to the "chat", "boards", "putty" buttons at the top. Antialias the text in the buttons, it looks a bit rough.

Plans are to fully integrate the site with a login - so when loged in it will display emails, how many people in chat, how many new posts to the boards etc.art_wolf

• The wiki should be a vhost - wiki.redbrick.dcu.ie instead of www.redbrick.dcu.ie/~wiki/mw/

This partially works, but all the links inside the wiki use the ugly ~wiki style.

We tried to set this up initially but for some complicated reason couldn't. Not sure if this is a wish for the new redbrick site or the wiki. Is the wiki to be integrated more into the main redbrick site? --The Dead One 10:30, 25 May 2006 (IST)

I just tried accessing the wiki via wiki.rb.dcu.ie/~wiki - It worked for the most part, but the pubcookie login wasn't having any effect. Had to go to www.rb.dcu.ie/~wiki to edit this. This may cause a problem. - werdz

• Update pubcookie to match look of new website design

Are you sure? A great many pages will send users to the pubcookie login page, from all sorts of different styles. Is there much point in making the pubcookie page match the style of just one of the sites?

Yes,assuming the long term plan is for all official redbrick web services to use pub cookie and to look somewhat similar

• Pubcookie enable webmails

Been investigating this for awhile - problem is that it requires to combining the pubcookie login and webmail logins - pubcookie on its own cannot do this.art_wolf

• Update webmails look to match look of new website design
• Add tab icon to squirrelmail

Where?art_wolf

• that gradiant affect is annoying on the content pages.
• http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/services/userfree/ doesnt work
• http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/about/sponsors/ links on right are for about
• http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/about/admins/hardware/ should be wikied. It'll be updated far more frequently if it is.
