Prelaunch To Dos
zackkrida opened this issue · comments
Hi all,
Here's everything the site needs prior to launching. I did some QC today. This includes content and code. I was really hoping to have most of these things done before my wife went into labor, but it was a race against the clock and I lost.
I certainly think it's possible to launch the site before end-of-year, if prioritized, but it's also likely that I'll be finishing this work in early January.
Content Considerations
- Alumni memberships/import
- How will alumni be added? Do we have a database/listing of existing alumni? Yes, they'll be imported.
- Will we add batches of alumni to the site when they 'graduate' the program, or offer a registration page where they can sign up on their own? Manually add batches for now
- Forum
- We are using bbPress for forums. We can either have 1 forum, or multiple. The original design allows for one, so I just want to confirm that's the desired behavior. A single central feed to which users can post topics. 1 forum
- The original design is missing some pages we need, so those pages are currently using default styles:
- "full view" of a single forum post
- user edit view
- We compromised here and added some styles to the forum that meet in the middle.
Code considerations
- There are two branches needing to be merged:
alumni(for alumni functionality): #30style-revisions: for Francisco's design feedback
- After merge we need to tag a release and deploy, or manually upload a
.zipof the theme (we would have to temporarily enable upload permissions by editing the wp-config manually via ssh) - After merge ACF fields need to be synced here: https://tempcert.creativecommons.org/wp/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=acf-field-group (you will see the word "sync" next to "all" and "active")
- The alumni section requires a few pages to be created and their page templates set on the global 'options' page:
