Hey David Mundell, Developer  at Matogen Digital David  
To structure the testing process, I'm adding all my feedback for the various DSI pages here.

Latest News

  1. Desktop: The featured image is not crisp:
  2. Mobile: there have been 2 different displays of the featured image. Neither is working as expected. Have a look at the screengrabs here: Re: latest news feed  - DSI PHASE 2

Seed Grants 

  1. Mobile: 
    • Can you move the apply button below the section titles?
    • There is a grey bar between each section of the seed grants, on desktop this is a background, but on mobile, the containers have the same margins, so it's creating the grey bars. I'm not sure how we could resolve this other than making the containers even more narrow, which I don't think is a good idea. Could the darker grey background run all the way to the screen edge?
  2. Need to add links to Appy for medium and large grants (still needs to be shared)

Leaders and Core Members

  1. Our Leaders section is not styled correctly. 
    • There should be 2 rows for the 5 people listed (3 per row)
    • The images are all of different sizes
  2. The core members are not showing at all
  3. Mobile: for the Avatars and name links, can we have the image with the name/title link below the image, and all centred down the page

Our News

  1. There isn't a filter as per the Xd. Only Search. Not sure if that's something that's been parked?

Home page

  1. Desktop: the hero banner is a bit different to the Design. 
    • The text area over the featured image takes up more than half the space. Please look at reducing the overlay height, 
    • shift the H1 and subtitle to align with the page margin and content,
    • Increase the subtitle size
    • Add a green stripe at the bottom of the hero banner
    • Make the slider arrows blue
    • Xd:
    • Staging:
  2. Mobile: The subtitle on the hero banner has quite a lot of padding below it. Can we reduce this?
  3. Centre align "Funding Opportunities for Data Science Initiatives" – I tried, but couldn't see how to centre align this section title
  4. Desktop: Can we reduce padding around the H3, H2 and body in this section? Feels a bit loose compared to the design: Staging:Xd:
  5. Mobile: Big gaps between content sections:

Seed Grants changes are super David Mundell, Developer  at Matogen Digital David Thanks! The only weirdness is that the Seed grants URL is https://dsi.dev.umn.edu/funding-opportunities Ian Parsons, Head Chef at Matogen Digital Ian Robyn, Project Manager at Matogen Digital Robyn   can we update this, or is there any particular reason why it's /funding-opportunities?

David Mundell, Developer  at Matogen Digital David Graduated Assistantships is perfect on Mobi :) Thanks!
Ian Parsons, Head Chef at Matogen Digital
Laura Hurley, Designer, UX and Engagement Specialist at Matogen Digital Laura  the seed grants URL is a leftover from the previous version of the site. We can change as needed. 
Laura Hurley, Designer, UX and Engagement Specialist at Matogen Digital 🔥 I'll do it!

Sorry David Mundell, Developer  at Matogen Digital David The seed grants page: the buttons for Large and medium are not required, so I removed the details in the backend, but the buttons are still visible:
David Mundell, Developer  at Matogen Digital
Morning Laura Hurley, Designer, UX and Engagement Specialist at Matogen Digital Laura , I pushed a change for Seed Grants. If it has no button text it wont show the button. I will try and gather a few changes together before I ask Ian to push the changes up :)
Robyn rescheduled this to-do

re funding opportunities Laura Hurley, Designer, UX and Engagement Specialist at Matogen Digital Laura  as long as it makes sense you can edit accordingly - it fits under funding opportunities so maybe it needs to be funding-opportunities-seed -grant ? Whatever we did with the menu items we can do here 
Laura Hurley, Designer, UX and Engagement Specialist at Matogen Digital 🙏

Hi Laura Hurley, Designer, UX and Engagement Specialist at Matogen Digital Laura ,

I have made these changes:

  • Latest news: I am still looking into why the image is not applying to stage
  • Seed grants: I have applied the changes to mobile. I also removed the button if it does not contain text.
  • Graduate Assistantship: I am not seeing the issue on mobile is it still an issue for you? I did restyle this section that might of cause the fix
  • Homepage:  I have applied the changes to the banner. The Banner subtitle couldn't be made much larger due to space issues. I also centered the text that needed to be centered and worked on the spacing of the page including mobile

Thank you
Robyn, Project Manager at Matogen Digital
Laura Hurley, Designer, UX and Engagement Specialist at Matogen Digital Laura  will you confirm which of these are complete / if this is still relevant?
Laura Hurley, Designer, UX and Engagement Specialist at Matogen Digital
This baby is getting marked done! YES! Phew haha! 😝 - the only issue is now noted in a separate task, which is the crispness of the Latest News feature image. But otherwise, I've looked over all these points and everything else is sorted! Praise be! 
Robyn, Project Manager at Matogen Digital 🙌yay!
