I found how to change the links and I can update them. but maybe we should chat to Ian first because then we dont need to do custom links. But if this is urgent I can add them for all the languages.
David M.
yes i see i will take a sneak peek to see if its an easy fix
Robyn
ps it looks like this issue has been with us since the last link was added, only one of the articles is translating properly - the original one
Robyn
All good, that stuff is weird and I am not sure how it hangs together so we can sort it out when the boss man is back 
David M.
AH damn! 
Robyn
I am not sure if that's what you meant before but I see the translations are not working as expected, we can check in on that tomorrow, thanks so much Dave
Robyn
Ah, awesome, I didnt see but had a quick look now, that's all we need for now, thanks Dave - much appreciated! 
David M.
with the custom links
David M.
Thanks
Robyn Robyn
 I did manage to add the menu items so long. not sure if you saw that
Robyn
Thanks for the update
David Mundell David
 I did the same and was nervous to publish in case it breaks so thank you for trying, lets check tomorrow

Hey
Robyn Robyn
 , I tried so see what is going on but its very confusing. I was trying to look on the old laptop but it keep restarting. I don't have the site on this laptop. However I added the link as a custom link. We could publish the site but because I have not published this one before I don't want any surprises. The last publish was a while ago. Maybe we can do that tomorrow when Ian is back. Just in case something goes wrong with the translation plugin or the site goes down. I don't have any details and not clued up what is happening with this site. For a safety precaution 
David M.
maybe we can jump on a call after that if I am not coming right
David M.
I am sure I can work them out :) I will try after the DEV call and get back to you
Robyn
Robyn
I can see where Ian added the topics in there but I cannot see how he got them in 
Robyn
Robyn
on productoin 
Robyn
either way, lets just go with adding that link to the menu 
Robyn
it was in August so it was a long time ago
Robyn
Robyn
we built out the explorer page 
David M.
I read this message a few times and I am trying to remember what did it. it feel like it was a long long time ago
Robyn
Perfect, thanks Dave
David M.
Hey
Robyn Robyn
 , I will take a look. I think the menu will be the easiest thing to do. I will try that and get back to you. 
Robyn
"On a separate note, we’ve added another Explore topic to the website called ‘UNFCCC toolkit’. Is it possible to restructure the Explore page as we discussed previously? Alternatively, could you add them as additional dropdowns in the meantime so that they are accessible to visitors? "
Robyn
David Mundell David
morning! I heard from this client - I have been asking her if we can launch explorer since August and gave up after I got back from my operation as they wanted to do new work - she has come through this morning asking us to launch that section or add her Explore topic to the menu - please will you check and let me know what would be quickest to do - I imagine just adding the story to menu? I tried to do it but cannot see how to get topics into the menu space - I can add a custom link but no idea how to add another topic - Please will you check for me this morning so I can let her know? https://voicesforjustclimateaction.org/topic/unfccc-vca-tool-kit/ 
Ian P.
Thanks
Robyn Robyn
, got it! 
Robyn
Robyn
i went around the bend and back explaining this to Karen when we were working on explorer, we could only use the allocated amount per month which is why it took so long - ringing any bells?
Robyn
i shared emails and a screenshot on the quote task
Ian Parsons Ian
 
Robyn
i will go digging for the emails to remind you 
Robyn
billed when we actually do work 
Robyn
we had R4000 or so allocated to them per month \
Ian P.
We had scheduled an increase in hourly rate on a certain date; I'm not aware of a specific maintenance contract
Robyn
I see you responded to Rosie, so deleted that comment 
Robyn
I would like to share the maintenance contract details today though so your thoughts on the current maintenance plan would be useful 
Robyn
so i want to check dates to see how it lines up with what they are asking 
Robyn
it worked completely different to what we are offering now 
Robyn
yes but it had dates if I recall
Ian P.
It's not a fixed contract; pay as you go
Robyn
Ian Parsons Ian
when does VCA's current maintenance contract end? 
Robyn
thank you 
David M.
I have not looked at it yet. I will start with the setup today and see how far I get
Robyn
David Mundell David
 did you have a chance to look at what we need to do wrap up the explorer goodies? I want to let Karen know what to expect before I go so please give some thought / check and let me know by Monday - thanks so much 
Robyn
No probs! Not urgent 
Robyn
should we park for a bit or continue and just manage the bill
Ian P.
We can continue with the work, but let's take it one thing at a time :) 
Ian P.
Robyn Robyn
 I've billed them the maximum monthly amount - R4000. 
Robyn
Ian Parsons Ian
 reminder to let me know about this one - bill them and let me know if we can wrap up the work or if we should continue to park 
David M.
Hey
Ian Parsons Ian
 , I had another cache style sheet issue. This time on stage. However I noticed the style sheet would have a version number at the end of it. By updating the child-themes style.css file, to a later version number fixed the issue. Maybe something to note. This could of also been my issue that I was having on my local as well.
Robyn
I also thought flip man all this admin for this blady thing - ten emails to get a new card in - nee man 
Ian P.
Probably. Once they've signed in they can set up payment details and see if that's an option
Robyn
Ian Parsons Ian
 I did forget something - are we able to convert Iubenda into a yearly payment
