Yes it will 😜 I will try and make the height the same then it will sit inline
Robyn
I said we are not done yet so it will look better when done properly - was just a demo haha
Robyn

and the feedback. "Yes, it's not pretty, but something like that yes.
Can we baseline align Arua-SFS and UP, to help ?"
David M.
okay great, Thank yoy

Robyn
I dont have feedback yet but she did send the file 
David M.
💪🏼
Robyn
I think that's it
David Mundell David
 will check with her - thank you! 
David M.
David M.
Ok, if I understand this correctly she would like the new change but then use the full Arua logo in the menu area? 
Robyn
David Mundell David
Ian Parsons Ian
- feedback from Roule - 
Arua-SFS is the main identity of the site,so for that reason, I wouldn't use just the ARUA icon when the other two logos are used in full.
The placement can work though. 
I have been very busy with Wordworks, will make the Hosted by Svg now

David M.
Going to place this in the ticket as well
David M.
Ian P.
Ian P.
Guys let's just have a quick video call - it looks like we're talking at cross purposes
Robyn
Okay, thanks for Clarifying
Ian Parsons Ian
David Mundell David
 I mentioned we need to stick to the design so any options that are not in line with that need a proper discussion - I have already requested the svg - shall we put it in and try to meet the design and then flag any issues or changes if it does not work?
Ian P.
Robyn Robyn
 this is significantly different from the design. David is suggesting that we remove the UP + Future Africa logo from the top nav bar on small screens, and instead put it into the mobile nav menu that opens up when you click on the menu button
David M.
Thanks
Robyn Robyn
, I will take a look :)
Robyn
I have given you testing feedback and requested the logo to include Hosted by - thank you
David Mundell David
 
Robyn
Thanks Dave, as long as it looks like the design, we can move forward with this and ask Roule for an new svg
David M.
Next to the logo or perhaps below the links.
David M.
David M.
We can then place it in the dropdown. I think we still want the image with the text on it. It will be best that it scales correctly
Robyn
can we make it work or shall I ask her to give it us ? 
Robyn
what do you suggest
David Mundell David
 ?
David M.
more space to play with
David M.
David M.
In the footer area the logo is larger: 
David M.
David M.
on the smallest mobile screen 320px this is what it looks like 
David M.
The other issue is even the logos becomes squished and unreadable 
David M.
Yes I will become squished however everything will become squished on mobile even if we added it ourselves 
David M.
Robyn
Robyn
David Mundell David
 update - Hosted by not funded by - soz
Robyn
Quickly spoke to Roule about Arua, I will pass this on as well but she mentioned that thought the Funded by part would fit into dev - if we add it to the logo she is worried it will squash when you look at it on mobile - please let me know what our options are for this

 just picking up on ARUA changes quickly. Maybe something we should check with Roulé is whether the navigation menu should resize when you start scrolling, and whether it should stick to the top edge, instead of floating slightly below it. 

That's what I had in mind, but it's not clear on the design

I am not sure if this is still the dev environment https://arua_cw.storiesandscience.co.za/. It seems to be down. I cant tell if it was down before or after my push.

 thanks so much - one thing I checked because I am saying we built what was on the prototype is the partners request, for some reason we have the project at the top as well but its not like that on the design so think we need to include that too :(
Ian P.
I'll work out a cost estimate for the team members section. I don't think we need Roulé to update the design.

For the rest, you have a good sense of what we can accommodate 👍
Robyn
Robyn
Ian Parsons Ian
For the above list, is there anything we can consider in-scope because its so small to do? 

  • The individual partners page is technically as per design but looks crappy so can we fit this in ? 
  • We have an issue with researchers that I will create a task for - I didn't notice this before.
  •  Under Partners, feels out of scope and a preference so think that should be out of scope
  • Impact Icons description on the home page feels unnecessary, when you click on it, it appears with the title right below but if it's a quick thing, maybe? I feel no, but open to suggestion. 
  • Voicenotes 3 next to each other will be a disaster on mobile so I am happy to push that back - there's 6 voicenotes at the moment so really not a lot of scrolling to do - 2 next to each could work but again I think it will end up being below each other anyhow on mobile - your thoughts?
  • What do we need to add another two sections to the team members block? Do we need Roule and Co to look at the design or can we wing it? How much time do we think we need to make that happen? It probably has additional implications - the backend allows us to tag a specific project, role and those all go to research partners so is there anything else that needs to be considered to make this work? 
Robyn
Hi Robyn,

Thanks for checking in. I have received quite detailed feedback, which I have collated below )at least there parts for your attention - a lot of it I will have to implement). If the "structural" changes are not doable at this stage, please let me know. Or if they take a bit longer to implement, Prof. Swanepoel has indicated he would still be happy if the site launches by the 25th. The first point below is a change he has requested and feels quite strongly about:

1. On the "Our Team", "Core team" page, Prof. Swanepoel would like an additional tab added to the right of Coordination Team called "Researchers". This tab will be for certain researchers considered part of the "core team" and therefore he doesn't merely want them to appear under "Collaborating Researchers". There are specific people he has instructed me to add to that tab, and there are others that need to be "reshuffled" between the three tabs. Could you please confirm:
a) Is it possible to add the additional tab?
(b) How/where do I add and remove people from these three tabs - I do not see any place to do that when I go into an individual person's profile under "People".

2. For the "Our impact" icons at the bottom of the home page, is it possible to have the name of the impact area under the icon? Unless you click on the icon, you won't have an overview of the impact areas and one might not have the interest or realise that the icons need to be clicked on to see the information on the different impact areas.

3. Under our partners - It seems a bit redundant to have the project name and then the partners listed with the other projects they are linked to below in the grey blocks. Would it not be easier to digest to leave out the project names and just have the partner logos and names with the grey blocks below to indicate all the projects that they are affiliated with? Then each partner is only listed once and the page is shorter and less busy. There is a lot of repetition on the page and the content is not easy to digest.

4. Under "Our Researchers" it shows that all researchers are involved in ALL the projects, despite the correct projects being attached to their individual profiles. Not sure how to fix this.

5. For the voicenotes, can they be re-ordered (two or three next to each other), so one doesn't have to scroll down so much?

6. On the individual partner pages, can the white block with logo and name please be at the top and widened, then the description placed beneath (same as the white block above - stretching the whole/or most of the width of the page).

Hope these are "doable"!

I will still be working on updating/adding content for the first few days of next week.

Thanks
Esley
Robyn

 - I wanted to know about our instance specifically because I am not sure about our set up - we can chat tomorrow - 
David M.
Its well written. I am not currently seeing we why have both in our case. 
Laura H.
Just asked ol gemini, and that is how I would put it :)
Laura H.
Robyn Robyn
 

Categories and tags are both used to organise content on a website, but they serve different purposes:

Categories
  • Broader categorisation: Categories are used to group content into general topics or themes.   
  • Hierarchical structure: They often have a hierarchical structure, allowing for subcategories.   
  • Required: Most content management systems (CMS) require a post or page to belong to at least one category.
Example: A blog about cooking might have categories like "Appetisers," "Main Courses," "Desserts," and "Recipes by Cuisine."


Tags
  • Specific keywords: Tags are more granular and describe specific details or keywords related to a piece of content.   
  • Non-hierarchical: They don't have a hierarchical structure.   
  • Optional: Tags are optional, and a post can have multiple tags.   
Example: A recipe for a chocolate cake might have tags like "chocolate," "cake," "dessert," "birthday," and "gluten-free."
David M.
I will have a quick look and see what is going on

I loaded all the profile pics - we had a few missing and went over them all to make sure its all in and working - i have spotted a couple of anomalies - Rose is not part of any project, just Arua so she is supposed to be in the team but appears in researchers without a link to projects, might be fine but she sits under researchers (minor issue not sure who will notice and might be a missing project on the document) My bigger issue is the title sitting next to the university - it looks nice but reads weirdly - what do you think. feels like miss university pageant haha

 I've updated the filters on news and events, and resources. They should all work perfectly now. 
- Note - I've adapted the styling on news and events to be the same as resources. Instead of the submenu, I've added a filter.
- I looked into the URL structure for news and events posts. The best I can do now is to use the category name in the URL, instead of /news or /events.

I didnt see this notification. It's looking good🤘🎉
Ian P.
Dankie! 
Laura H.
Looks awesome!!
Ian P.
Also - note the new URL - we are now officially on the new hosting account
Ian P.
We have a little home page animation going on now. Took a bit longer than I had hoped! But it's up :) https://arua_cw.storiesandscience.co.za/
Rohan S.
I was afraid that would happen! I once did a project where the client insisted on changing the permalinks, and it was an absolute nightmare. You change one thing, and 10 different links stop working. 
Ian P.
Robyn Robyn
the change to the URL structure for news and events had a knock-on effect on this.
Rohan Strydom Rohan
 I've reverted to the original URL structure; ok if I take a look at this next week for us?

Lovely Dave!

no stress
David Mundell David
 park for now, i will create a task and then we can have a chat about what it should be (next week) its working at least so not a major issue hopefully
David M.
I thought it would be a quick thing. I will come back to it a bit later 
David M.
I am not sure its a big issue but I will have a look on how this was built. It might just be an option in the admin area

I pushed some changes to stage: Resource video now shows and is styled to look like the featured image. The form is styled to be responsive (A few mobile tweaks still needed). On mobile I added the show and hide filter. I assume show and hide doesn't work on desktop. if it does it is a quick fix. I am probably going to run to gym soon and then come back to do a bit more 🏃‍♂️‍➡️
Ian P.
Let's chat tomorrow morning.

 I am experiencing resource issues, are we still going to move Arua over sometime? I am not sure if this causing issues on filters - the resource filter had a facet issue that I cannot show now so maybe its fixed but according the filter there's nothing to filter on which is all the data I am not seeing on an individual resource anymore 
Robyn
doing a full clear out has done the trick, thanks Ian, logged out of everything hence the delay - back on and no more issues 
Robyn
ps its just collaborating researchers where this happens - i can navigate to project partners no probls 
Robyn
I have done a hard refresh so next step is to clear my cookies and cache in settings 
Robyn
Nope, if I click on this link and navigate it bombs like the first print screen I shared
Ian P.
Can you get to the link from here by clicking on the submenu item? https://arua.storiesandscience.co.za/collaborators-and-partners/arua-sfs-partner-network/ 
Robyn
its not working properly but I seem to have this page that works but is obv not right - its only this tab giving me this issue https://arua_cw.storiesandscience.co.za/collaborators-and-partners/collaborating-researchers/
Ian P.
Ok, thanks. I've removed those redirects, but your browser might still have that sitting somewhere
Robyn
i will try to do a clearing of cache and let you know
Robyn
it keeps redirecting me here 
Ian P.
Ok, and what happens when you go to the correct url for that page? Or, are you being redirected to the arua_cw page automatically? If that is happening, please try it on a different browser and/or clear browser cache
Robyn
Ian P.
It's working for me - what are you seeing? 
Robyn
I think there's a conflict between the old and the new space for working 
Robyn
Ian Parsons Ian
I cannot get onto collaborating partners to check this page - please can you assist https://arua.storiesandscience.co.za/collaborators-and-partners/collaborating-researchers/
Robyn
Thanks for the update
David Mundell David
 !! its looking great

Hi
Robyn Robyn
 , I have styled the impact area post section. All 6 sections should have their own colours. The styling does change a bit if you view on mobile. On the related post I added a featured image to that article. it wont be the correct image but just for testing purposes
David M.
David M.
its makes more sense this way
David M.
Anything 375 pixels or below the image will appear above the title. otherwise it wont fit
David M.
David M.
I pushed these pages:
https://arua.storiesandscience.co.za/collaborators-and-partners/collaborating-researchers/
https://arua.storiesandscience.co.za/collaborators-and-partners/project-partners/
https://arua.storiesandscience.co.za/capacity-building/training-opportunities/

Some places might still need margin and padding. I need to check the small details

For the research pages I added a media query for 375 pixels. The design mobile page size is 574px. 
Robyn
Thanks Dyl! 
Dylan C.
Robyn Robyn
, cool beans. I'll make sure to do so. Thanks 😊
Robyn
Dylan Clark Dylan
 the layout is good, please remember to check fonts etc as you move forward on this page's styling - thank you 
Robyn
Great, thanks
Ian Parsons Ian
 coolio, let me know when you are free for a quick chat 
Ian P.
Yup, I've imported the facets - we can look at it together? It looks like Resources needs child pages as well
Robyn
Ian Parsons Ian
could you confirm that you have imported the facets that Rohan gave here - I am not sure what needs to happen here and its causing other issues Filter > Resources - ARUA-SFS 
Robyn
Dylan Clark Dylan
 the funders page looks good - I have asked the Unfold ladies to confirm that they are happy - thank you 
Robyn
Seems to be there, thanks
Ian Parsons Ian

- I've copied the content across to https://arua.storiesandscience.co.za/ - would you check that it's all there, please?

Rohan S. I am only seeing this now, but sure @Ian let’s do it Monday.
Robyn
Robyn
Rohan Strydom Rohan
I know you said you would work on stuff this weekend, I picked up on an issue in the impact areas  - the articles should be pulling from resources but are instead pulling in events and news -Impact areas - we are pulling in news and events instead of resources, please fix  - ARUA-SFS
Robyn
which is what i think we have planned - just need to see that stuff pulling through 
Robyn
Lekker, so option 2 for the win 
Ian P.
I think it's fine if there are lots of partners; either way, it's going to be a bit of scrolling to see them all :) 
Robyn
Hey
Ian Parsons Ian
 I like option two - I also didnt realise this but the learning from me is to really pay closer attention to the design even if its not Lau doing the work, we need to do the same as what we would do internally and review criticallly. Other than that, my only concern with option 2 is when they have 17 partners which is the case on the Core SFS project - what is that going to look like 
Ian P.
Robyn Robyn
it looks like we've catered for it to some extent, but I can't remember if we talked about having a separate page for a specific project's partners. I'm not sure it's sensible to link to a separate page, but it's definitely an option. Two other approaches to solving this:
- Display project partners in a modal. When the user clicks on the underlined link, the modal opens up over the same page
- Display project partners at the bottom of the page content, above the impact areas. When the user clicks on the underlined link, the page scrolls down to the partners section
Robyn
Robyn
video trying to explain but happy to chat https://vimeo.com/987078375/3df00a7982?share=copy
Robyn
 
Ian Parsons Ian
I have discovered another page on the prototype that I am unsure about - we link from a project to partners relevant to that projects - I don't think we have catered for this yet as we have built out the ability to link to specific partners on our page vs linking out to another page - https://xd.adobe.com/view/3cd9bca9-889d-46bf-97e0-b2993538211b-698a/screen/81681184-df4f-4a6c-bc78-a24d84c386d0/

some feedback has come through - not sure if its going to work but lets try "On Desktop may we please have just one logo plus its text per line – not two columns

Perhaps I was a bit hasty in copying things across to the new site for ARUA. Let me think this through. 
Ian P.
Yes. 
Ian P.
Ahh. 
David M.
Hey
Ian Parsons Ian
, the changes I uploaded to staging is not reflecting. Would this have something to do with the new server? 
David M.
For working on local remember to update .htaccess to fix the images
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://arua_cw.storiesandscience.co.za//$1 [QSA,L]
Ian P.
Yes please
Robyn
Thanks,
Ian Parsons Ian
 ! So we can switch to working here now? 
Ian P.

Robyn Robyn
Rohan Strydom Rohan
 I'm picking up some general confusion about News & Events, and Resources. I've commented on the relevant task but maybe a quick checkin would help. 
Dylan C.
I see what you're saying. I have added some extra spacing to the logos. Will wait for feedback before continuing 
Robyn
Dylan Clark Dylan
 I am speaking to the designers on this project to get their input - mobile is okay and matches up with their request but the desktop view needs work as you have said. The are going to swap out the New Zealand logo so we have black on white so that will look a bit better - currently the issue for me is that you have the logos way too close to the text so you have reduced the space between text and logo too much - it still needs to look like the design, but no circules and square logos black on white - the asked us to just reduce the space so lets try that - if you are not sure, let me know so we can chat (either sometime today or tomorrow morning) 
Dylan C.
I just read your comment again
Robyn Robyn
 about the desktop version... Think I misunderstood the "keep it as is" part.  So we should keep it in a row format like in the picture?  
Dylan C.
What about something like the above? So the content starts next to the image, then wraps under it. So image will sit in the top left of each funder block
Dylan C.
Dylan C.
Robyn Robyn
I have made some changes. It's looking better, but still room for improvement. Mobile is okay in my opinion, but I think everything else can be improved a bit. 
Robyn
Robyn
Dylan Clark Dylan
let me know when the change has been made and we take it from there - I see one of the screenshots did not make it through so adding that now - it speaks to the last piece of their email "Then I think we can keep the desktop version  as is, but with less space between the logo and the text.
And then on the tablet and mobile size we keep the logo the same size, but let the text flow under it.
Does that make solve the issue?"
Dylan C.
I agree with David. I'll make the changes mentioned and we can see how it looks
David M. Maybe we should do a test to see what it will look like with all that content. We can then supply a screenshot of how it will look
Robyn
Robyn
Hi Robyn
The logo isn’t meant to be placed in circle – the circle you see on the design was a logo image placeholder – Sorry about that confusion.
 
I think all logos should be cropped to a square, can you pass them to me so I can do them as a set?
As far as possible logos should have a white background if they have one available,see below.
 

 
 
 


 
Then I think we can keep the desktop version  as is, but with less space between the logo and the text.

Funders links all updated 🙌
Robyn
Its a variety feast and imagine that will always be the case , I can add it in for Esley on her gap document but suspect its going to be a challenge for them so I think option two for the win - happy to chat about it tomorrow morning 
Robyn
Thank you!
Ian P.
Ok - in that case:
- We can either ask the client to crop all of their portrait images into landscape format)
- Or, we can try to put portrait images into a gallery so that they are displayed alongside each other. This will work for 2 or 3 images, or any combination where we don't end up with a single portrait image in a row
David M.
David M.
In the XD the images are slightly outside the content area: 
Ian P.
Use the XD file as a guide here. 
Ian P.
Just to clarify - did the content save correctly when you loaded it? 
Ian P.
Robyn Robyn
 
- portrait images will always look very big. We would generally add styling for landscape orientation images, and set image width based on that. A portrait image with the same width will be very tall, like you see in your example
- we can and should add CSS to improve how these images are displayed. At the least, the images should be the same width as the text above it. 
Robyn
Rohan Strydom Rohan
i am assigning tasks to on gaps that I am finding, theres a lot coming through so please check your list To-dos - ARUA-SFS all the tasks assigned to you need to do be worked on - issues or gaps - I am assigning them to you with timelines so hopefully its clear what needs to be done - thanks
David M.
Sounds good!, It will be better on the call so we can look at different options
Robyn
we can brief the client on image sizes but it would be good to have some dev to try and help it along - happy to chat about all of this tomorrow
Robyn
right, so we need to have a better understanding of the image sizes / cater for it in the code somehow (much like the gallery convo I guess) ?
David M.
Yes this one would be an image issue. The image is portrait and not  landscape. The image itself is not wide enough and if we were to style that one to fit it would be distorted 
Robyn
the cover at the top is all funky 
Robyn
Robyn
No probs - thanks Dave

for news posts and events - we are using a normal word press gallery for images - https://arua.storiesandscience.co.za/2024/06/25/food-security-is-vital-to-a-developing-continent/ Please can you confirm if there's a way to make the images fit better? we did not edit the images, just loaded what the client gave us and some of them look far too big, this feels like a styling jobbie but do let me know your thoughts?

 this is what we need:
- Parent page: News and Events. This page does not need a template, as it won't be shown on the site
- Child pages: News, Events. 
Robyn
at the moment its looking like this so wondering if I should split the pages and if so, who is the parent - will that help pick up the posts? 
Robyn
Robyn
Rohan Strydom Rohan
news and events - I wanted to log an issue with you but wondering how this works. There is menu that makes it look like a child parent situation but not sure who the parent is - at the moment the page has been loaded as News and Events but wondering if that's right seeing as we have a child parent situation going on -  https://xd.adobe.com/view/3cd9bca9-889d-46bf-97e0-b29935382

Robyn
Morning! I can see you responded on the task. Capacity Building - Training opportunities  - ARUA-SFS - I am not sure how to load it and it looks like the reason for that is that its not built yet :)
Rohan S. To be 100% clear about this, can you send me a link please where I can see it not working?
Robyn
Thanks Ian, not sure if we are on the same page - do you mean a link to another site in the description? 
Robyn
Ian P.
It looks like we need to add a link. We're using blocks for these pages, so we should be able to add a link without any hassle. 
Dylan C.
Need a bit of guidance on these impact areas rows. David pointed out that they are siting on the edge of the screen in the XD file. But on the site currently there is a space on the left and right. 
It's fine to have them sitting on the edge for everything up to XXL screens, then it starts to look a bit funny. Should I make it full width up until XXL? Or just leave it full width? 

Can use Our Projects as an example...

re the above - there's no post for the training opportunity so unlike projects you cannot click through according to the design - do you think this is a mistake? Design https://xd.adobe.com/view/3cd9bca9-889d-46bf-97e0-b2993538211b-698a/screen/19d39b5d-ab37-430d-b59a-97d077eff17b/

I can create a child page, no probs but how do I create those posts? using blocks or ?
Robyn
Robyn
thanks
David Mundell David
 ! Perfect, thanks so much - appreciate the additional information - let me try and get some clarity before we go too deep -
David M.
Okay yes lets chat about this one in the morning. Just getting my head around it. I didnt know those links existed 
David M.
I see this one is hardcoded
David M.
Robyn
I am happy for you to park this so we can discuss tomorrow morning - I know its a lot and its a bit confusing 
Robyn
the others, have been done by arua and they have all the details so the green text says click here to read more vibes and then takes you to a full debrief of the project
Robyn
Some projects have been done with arua under a different umbrella and for those we are currently linking out to another site (but Ian wants me to flag this)
David M.
oh sorry I see what you are saying now that I am looking at the code
Robyn
There are two types of projects for the site 
Robyn
yes, that's what i was flagging with you 
David M.
Is the green text the project URL or the outgoing links? at the moment the green text is the project website
Robyn
I suspect the wording will be the same for all - so find out more about the project, which only allows you to click through to the project on the arua site and from there you click out to other sites 
Robyn
Thanks
David Mundell David
 I am not sure about the rest but think this one change is fine for now 
David M.
Robyn Robyn
, let me change those green links to be dynamic instead of fixed. I will add the acf field quickly
Robyn
if so we can change the green wording to something more suitable like this wording here 
Robyn
Robyn
Robyn
are we going to keep that green wording in place as the click through and move these links that are not working anyhow to the body of the post where people can click through? 
Robyn
Robyn
the wording that pulls through to the front should not be hard coded
Robyn
Robyn
I can go back to Roule and Ronel (very late in the game but can) and more importantly what I am loading in the back is not happening in the front 
Robyn
ok
Ian Parsons Ian
  either way, the wording we have seemingly hard coded in is an issue for this 
David M.
Sorry i didn't see the message. So we will wait for feedback? It will be quiet confusing for the user navigating the site. 
Ian P.
Robyn Robyn
I see - it looks like the intention was for all of these links to take people to external websites. I think this is something we should take back to Ronel and Roulé.
- Because that link is more prominent than the linked title, I'm worried people will miss the link to the actual project. 
- I think the experience should be consistent. It won't work to have some of those links go to an external site, and others go to a page on the ARUA site. 
- We can rather find a space for the external link on the actual project page
Robyn
Robyn
Robyn
The content document might help - Feed, Project, Care Global Colaborative PHD platform only has a short description and when you click on the link, it should take you to the project on another site 
Robyn
How has this been put together? 
Robyn
Some projects you click through to other sites, some you click through on our site to read more 
Robyn
David Mundell David
&
Rohan Strydom Rohan
 I am reviewing information and noticed that the description I put into a project to say click here to read more OR click through to another website to see more is not picking up what I am saying - we seem to have hard coded the description click here to find more on their website which is incorrect

suspect the people space needs to be expanded so you can say what the role is per project 
Robyn

yup

Rohan asked about this in the parters space where I think its not that relevant but I believe its very relevant here 
Robyn
so believe this is a gap 
Robyn
and no where did I indicate roles for people 
Robyn
We loaded people and linked them to a project 
Robyn

It doesn't look like we have a field for role.

Regarding tagging Resources with associated Projects, would it not be easier from a usability point of view to select the project in the post itself? Now, when loading posts, one would then need to go to the project after the fact and tag the Resource Post. 
This is possible in News posts currently and makes uploading quicker.
Robyn
Robyn
Laura Hurley Laura
 lets chat quickly 
Laura H.
Re voice notes, Roh can then ignore that one 😬
Laura H.
re what should be News vs Resources. The News posts (https://universityofpretoria.glasscubes.com/share/s/smp3igngsnkptol85s84e7mlub?0) these are News posts, right?
The Blogs and Videos,
Robyn Robyn
confirmed should be resources, but let me  know if that should change. It is consistent with the design and there is an option to tag resource type, and both Blogs and Videos came up as options to tag
Robyn
they get loaded in the project 
Robyn
They are relevant Lau but in a different spot 
Laura H.

 could you show me the child pages quickly?

Ian Parsons Ian
 I asked Lau to add her comments but you are right, projects link to resources so we prob don't need it on resources too - that we can fix up ourselves and voice notes was on the resource doc I shared with Laura but it is not intended for resources

Laura Hurley Laura
Robyn Robyn
I'm seeing the feedback on this task: Re: Blocks Page > Individual Resources - ARUA-SFS and want to confirm the following: 
  • Are we clear on what is a Resource and what is a News / Events post? From the comment it seems like the content you uploaded should be a news post, Laura, but I might be wrong. 
  • Do individual resources pages show the projects they're related to? I know on Projects pages we can select relevant resources and news posts, but not sure if it's needed the other way around as well. 
  • Resources should not have space to input voice notes

Coolio, I loaded the individual elements not the page so not sure how we landed here but thanks for fixing
Ian P.
Robyn Robyn
- I had a look at this task: Custom template > Project Partners - ARUA-SFS. It looks like Rohan has completed the template.

When I look in the backend on that page, the wrong template was chosen: Collaborating Researchers, instead of Project Partners. I've chosen the right template now and it looks like the correct info is now pulling through. It does still need to be styled
Robyn
I cannot click on funders in the footer - the actual individual pages need front end love but the overview page I cannot view and suspect it looks like the partners jumble you see at the top here 
Robyn

I shared a link to the partners page

Hey Roh, its the filter I am referring to - not sure how it works or where to load anything for both news and events that have a filter (I removed my calendar brain fart)
Rohan S.
Events probably need some more loving. The only layout I can see for EVENTS is https://xd.adobe.com/view/3cd9bca9-889d-46bf-97e0-b2993538211b-698a/screen/6a732961-1c5d-4224-bd03-a1d1409dbea1/specs/, and there is no indication of a calendar filter. I am assuming then I need to add an event date, is there anything else that needs to be added to EVENTS apart from an event date?

Can you show me what is wrong with the Funders and Partners pages please?

Lets do it, we just need to keep the unfold meeting quick - its scheduled till 11h15 
Ian P.
Let's have a quick ARUA standup -
Robyn Robyn
 can we squeeze it in at 11am? 
Robyn
and think its mainly styling there but we need that link fixed so I can check it properly - currently I can go to view single funder in the backend 
Robyn
partners https://arua.storiesandscience.co.za/collaborators-and-partners/ & funders the link in the footer is not working 
Robyn
Rohan Strydom Rohan
couple of questions for you - where is News and events from a loading perspective? I can add them as resource types but this feels off as the events & news have some functionality that go with it (a filter) Please confirm that the work is done and how I should load this? Something has also gone wildly funky with the funders and partners pages - this does not seem like front end stuff so can you take a look at that as well and let me know when its fixed? 
Robyn
Yes, saw you were not available - dankie
Ian P.
I see you've scheduled 11.30 - perfect

 we have to go to plan b - for now lets agree on when this chat can happen - I am out tomorrow so Friday at 09h30 feels the most sensible -

Thank you!

That sounds good to me Robyn. If this is approved, let's keep track of it on a separate project on Clockify so that we can report back to Esley and co
Robyn
Ian Parsons Ian
 I want to say 40 hours for content but not sure if that's too much / too little - I'd rather be on the higher side of life so please let me know what you think - we still have all the resources including blogs, videos, news and capacity building goodies to load as well as fix up Partners and funders (or simply leave Lorem Ipsum on the gaps. I still need to upload all 54 people images, waiting on Roule and obviously need to go back and load all the icons from Ronel + link resources and projects + load impact countries when those are built - we also need to close the loop on the voicenotes + I found images for resources that I need to pull off glasscubes and send to Ronel and co to fix up for me - 40 hours feels fair but do let me know if you think it should be more - I looked at our costing doc and nothing else has this amount of time linked to it so feeling a bit unsure at this stage, let me know what you think

 I am loading all the impact areas and we are missing countries - I know you spoke about the map on the infographic last week so not sure if you have this on your list but countries need to be linked to the impact infographic so feels missing at this point 
Robyn
baie dankie!
Rohan Strydom Rohan
 I don't think anyone else has been dabbling with functions - will you check this out for us - thank you!!
Ian P.
Depending on who last worked on the Impact Area function, that person should change how those URLs are created in the function to remove the 's' from impact-areas
Ian P.

so did I misunderstand and we do need the pages but the content pulls in from the resource area?
Robyn
i am expecting to go through to the new page

Robyn
when I click on the one I loaded Climate and Environment
Robyn
I am not seeing how that impact page works -  I loaded the content in the resources area but when you click through it says no page found - I deleted the pages after our chat this morning so not sure if that was a mistake or what I am missing

sorry Ian lol not sure why I am so quick with old video these days!

I want to run my approach by you for Resources.   There are 4 templates needed for Resources -> Generic, Newsletter, Open Access Data and Videos. These are the RESOURCE TYPE taxonomy want  to make use of the WordPress standards for their template filenames. So  Resources News would for instance be taxonomy-resource-type-news.php. This way we don't have to set the template for each page. The link for these pages would then also be something like http://arua.local/resource-type/newsletters/

Are you happy with that? I prefer if we work within the WordPress framework.
Rohan S.
Yes
Robyn Robyn
 , can we do a check-in please? How about in 45 minutes?

 Dylan is not the person responsible for this build, please check what's missing and what needs to be done still and provide an update - there's a number of moving parts sitting with you so please let me know when to expect what from you - happy to chat if needed 
Rohan S.
MAybe we should do a call today, there seems to be many things to tie up. I can't unfortunately join planning, as its right in the middle of my normal standup.   
Rohan S.
See my comment
Robyn Robyn
 about individual Impact areas. Dylan seems to remember it was for him to build, and I don't remember building them, so we must have agreed on maybe him doing those pages. I can do them if need be, otherwise I am leaving it for Dylan. 
Rohan S.
Yes

Dylan Clark Dylan
  I see you creating pages but its missing elements so I am not sure that these are built in the back end - here's the design, I went into to add content and see you added some but the rest of the elements are missing https://xd.adobe.com/view/3cd9bca9-889d-46bf-97e0-b2993538211b-698a/screen/e0a8c765-d282-4200-82b7-9e180bbae9f0

I think each Impact Area gets its own page. I also think I was meant to create all these pages, but I only noticed the subpages so I missed them. I will add and link the rest of the pages now
Robyn
ps it looks like this impact area section is for the infographic https://arua.storiesandscience.co.za/wp-admin/edit-tags.php?taxonomy=impact-area&post_type=resource so where do the pages live. Thanks!

impact areas individual pages - where do those reside?  https://xd.adobe.com/view/3cd9bca9-889d-46bf-97e0-b2993538211b-698a/screen/fafa2ac7-22ef-43fe-af94-e0ca325263e4/ Those colour blocks are clickable to individual pages for each impact area - currently the blocks do not click through off the main page - is that for you to solve? And then secondly where does all information live?  Impact page:

 I want to check how researchers and meet the team are working together - some people working at Arua and land on meet the team but they are also involved in some projects and are considered researchers - I have loaded all the researchers into people but now that I am moving on I am unsure how to deal with meet the team who are all linked to Arua (I have asked the client if Arua should be a project as well as their spreadsheet links researchers to arua and other projects but how have you got this working on your side?

I think we are pulling the wrong information to the home page - I had a look this morning and we are pulling through projects instead of resources (which you probs didnt realise because of the missing resources on the desktop xd file) Home page on mobile - you can see a spotlight on someone, an article and a research piece - those are all resources that need to pull through vs a project and a person - xd file https://xd.adobe.com/view/3cd9bca9-889d-46bf-97e0-b2993538211b-698a/

David Mundell David
so I asked unfold about the voice notes and the response I got is that they need dev input to know what's possible - "Hi Robyn
We were never sure how many stories would get added, but I think 5 as supplied is good.
As to how many could potentially be added, we wanted input from the developer as to what might be possible here.
Is it possible to hide dots and lines? Do we perhaps need a quick check in about this?
We did not supply assests as it might change , depending on how the developer goes about this task"
 
Robyn
Robyn
Hey team - so i have asked the unfold ladies to confirm how voicenotes will work when we have more than five - we have five at this stage that will need to fit into the circles Content notes  - ARUA-SFS 
David M.
Sounds perfect thanks!
David M.
Wow I guess this will be buttons and SVG circles. I will have to do some research on how we will style this and keep it responsive
Rohan S. Yes
David Mundell David
the pages should be ready for page content to be loaded. I load dummy content on my side to make sure it works. If you load content and something is not working, please shout.
Robyn
Tried to record a video to explain what I am saying but its taking forever to load https://vimeo.com/973930967/0ba4539210?share=copy
David M. Okay great I will try and compare 🙏
Robyn
I will check how many stories we have - think its five and ask which of these circles should have a play button to switch to a different story but that's how this is supposed to work, the stories live in the bubblesw 
Robyn
Rohan Strydom Rohan
&
David Mundell David
one thing to note is that if you are not sure what's happening on the desktop design, defos check the mobile version as a lot of the answers lie on that version which is the primary focus when these ladies design - If you look at the voicenotes on the mobile design, you can see more than one play button and those buttons change the story https://xd.adobe.com/view/3cd9bca9-889d-46bf-97e0-b2993538211b-698a/screen/08ea2186-d8b8-4566-a0c9-0035dc3ff2b8/

Hey
Rohan Strydom Rohan
, one of the main questions I wanted to ask at the moment was for loading content. Is it safe to say all the pages/posts you confirmed as completed ready for content to be loaded? I wanted to confirm in case some content gets replaced as Robyn and Laura would like to start adding content when they find time. 💪

You might need to set the order explicitly using an array. Alternatively you can add a custom number field and set a value for each item from 1 - 6.
Ian P.
Dylan Clark Dylan
 the order of the impact areas on the page are important. On the mobile design you'll see the images flow from one into the next. 
Dylan C.
Just finished up the Impact areas. No other Arua tasks assigned to me at the moment, so I'll get started on Shine. If you notice anything I missed re the Impact Areas, please let me know ✌️
Dylan C.
Oh cool beans. That's a nice clean approach 👍 
Ian P.
If it's this page, we intended for it to be built with Gutenberg blocks: Blocks Page > Our Impact - ARUA-SFS. For that to work, we need the impact areas function to also be available as a shortcode. We can then add the shortcode as a block on the page
Ian P.
Ian P.
Dylan C.
What page template can I use for the impact-areas page? I don't see a template in the back end for that specific page. Should I just add a template?
David M.
Okay great I wasnt sure if we were using it. I want to create a follow up social media section that is on the contact page.

Are we using ACF pro version or just standard version for this site?

Hi all, specifically
David Mundell David

Dylan C.
I did indeed
Ian P.
Dylan Clark Dylan
did you push the wp_footer() change to the dev branch? 
Dylan C.
I'm going to create a separate branch for myself to work in. I'm struggling with merge conflicts and keeping my local up to date with everyone's changes
David M.
Morning all, I will be randomly adding dummy content to test the site. Anything can be deleted. It is for testing. Thank you
Robyn
no worries
Ian P.
Yup, go for it David
David M.
Is it fine for me to add dummy content on stage. The reason for this is that images are pulling from stage.
Ian P.
Dankie Robyn! 
Robyn
Budget check-in - we have spent about 58% of the budget to date - that means dev should be more than 60% complete as the budget includes content loading, testing, reverts (internal and external ) and roll-out.

Rohan Strydom Rohan
Hi Robyn

Here are the updated XD link to show design for the new countries pages.

 This one is for desktop.

This oneis for mobile.

I’ve saved the SVG map files in here.

I’ve also sent Esley the png examples. Will probably hear fom her tomorrow, but I don’t forsee any issues.
Robyn
sorry missed this so double messages coming through - soz
Rohan S. I am not sure how the svg’s work Ian. Can we assign background colours to each country? I assume@we can since we can apply a css style to it. But I am just guessing here.
Ian P.
Rohan Strydom Rohan
will this work for you? Feedback from designers on infographic map: 

We are trying to figure out how to do the map. If I manage to get all 195 countries of the world on their own layer, will you be able to code each country in their specific colour under the impact area? Then we basically just give you a grey map with all the countries on their own layer and you do the different colours on your side? Then if there is a country added to their list, it can be colourised on your side? Figuring out how we can make it easy for you before I start the process.
Robyn
i am noticing that its not just africa so not sure how that's going to work here 😵‍💫
Robyn

 please give your input here.

Ian Parsons Ian
we have the list of countries so going to pick option 1 ?   Hi Robyn

We imagined them as static pngs (I can make them up if I can get the info on which countries every programme was launched) . Or if the developers can switch svgs on and off like we did for the Osisa project? Let me know what I can make up for you.

note that the client has requested a change to the resource filter 
"Sorry to request this at this late stage, but could we please combine the keyword and topic filters into one? It is very difficult to distinguish between these two and not very useful, I think."
Ian P.
Robyn
Hallo Ian & Robyn

Please find the link here for the mobile infographic.

I only did 3 of the 6. Let me know if you need me to build the other 3 as well. I wasn’t sure if you would need all of them seeing that they are based on the same recipe.

Here is the link for the desktop version.

I’ve updated all the icons. You can find them here.

There are two icon versions: 
  • The bigger icons are used in the big circles in the infographic and at the top image of the impact pages.
  • The smaller icons are used in the smaller circles in the infographic and in the impact area strip menus at the bottom of each impact area page.

I’ve updated them on the ARUA SFS Website Layout XD file. Roulé, can you please update the link and send it again?

Please let me know if something is missing or unclear.

Thank you!
