Please chime in on things that need fixed

Post by FuzzySideDown »

Hi gang....

This thread is for commenting about things on the site that may not be working for you or for others to try an keep them all in one place.

Here's my starter list. (Edit: adding things as we go)

1) DONE - Make sure admins can access adminy things. For the moment, this is primarily for myself, I think....
2) Make sure moderators can access moderatory things.
More specifically....
3) DONE - Make sure new people can be added as users. Possibly change how that’s done.
4) Make sure previous users who forgot their passwords and such, have a way to get back in.
5) DONE - (paul) - adding HTTPS
6) DONE - (tibber) consider adding a “like” button of some sort for posts
7) DONE - Review email settings and options
8.) DONE - (zozeppelin) - remove year on Trip Dates topic
9) DONE - Site code brought current
10) DONE - Review how adding images to posts is done. Add inline images to posts.
11) DONE - Review adding video to posts. Added inline video link support.

I'm guessing there's more items, but these will be the ones I'll be starting with, probably in that order, but feel free to add more if you can think of other things that either don't work or are just wonky.

Thanks gang!
Cheers!

Kyle...

For me, the number 1 thing to fix is to implement HTTPS for this site. We should not be passing passwords and data over unencrypted HTTP sessions. It's a big security and sometimes I wonder whether I should be still using this site because of it.

By the way, thanks again for taking on maintaining this site.

Huge thanks Kyle!

Here’s a softball to help the metrics : change subforum name of “2020 trip dates” to “2023 trip dates”, or drop the year entirely.
