boblyplans

Summary of meeting 19th of november. Attending: Stig, Karl-Trygve, Tor and Fay.

New is that we now have experimental.boblycat.org to test things on. Will gradually migrate features to main boblycat.

New stuff:

• New titlearea (Cat, primary menu, secondary menu, login, search)
• New creation block on left shoulder (creation of content)
• new footer area for links
• a colour-profile for the site (needed, maybe even a set of compatible colours for users to choose)
• user-page with floating configurable blocks
• new date-presentation next to each blog, also change how each new blog-entry is displayed.
• all dates used should be in a readable format, no american style crapola

Also make sure that when posting blogs or pagesone can decide which pages one is featured on.

Suggested split-view of content:

• picassocat.org - for visual arts (painting, photos,...)
• livelycat.org - for live content (music, video, flash, ...)
• ibsencat.org - for everything written

Also allow users to design and decide more on the user-page, even toggling on- and off thenew titlearea. Footer should remain constant though, but should have style according to the rest of the user-page. Own urls are allowed to link to these pages.

All modules will be common for all subsites and all content will be available, they will all use the same database.

Easier category-system, maybe just one menu.

Various suggested blocks for user-page:

• bio-block, mugshot, favourite book, movie, ... + contact info
• blog entries
• archive listing
• rss feed for each user, for each type plus collected one
• user-defined block
• featured picture/portfolio/...
• latest/random picture/portfolio/music...
