Lewiki:Website Issues

A place to mention site problems, new feature requests, and To-Do items, along with their status and their expected date for completion.

• 28-Jul-2006 - Enable the nowiki escape command to work for other commands, such as the double curly brace template include .

• 5-Jan-2006 - Fix "problem" with the Textile formatting module converting text that's in all caps and surrounded by spaces such as HTML into this: <span class="caps">HTML</span>. Don't know why it's doing that. If the uppercase text is less than three letters, then that "span" code doesn't get added. Update: 5-Jan-2006 - Commented out the option in the Textile module that would surround three or more uppercase letters with the class="caps" CSS span tag.

• 4-Jan-2006 - Need to fix the problem with a question mark appearing in heading text. The table of contents for an article is created based upon the heading commands in the article. If a question mark exists, the link in the table of contents doesn't work.

• 4-Jan-2006 - Changed the way links without articles are displayed. Instead of the article title being surrounded by a single bracket and a question mark link at the right end as in [article title]?, the link without an article is displayed in red text.

• 1-Jan-2006 - Investigate implementing WYSIWYG for article adding/editing by modifying the code at http://wikiwyg.net to use Textile.

• 1-Jan-2006 - If not a WYSIWYG implementation, at least provide toolbar buttons (bold, italics, underline, headings, etc.) across the top of the textarea box to make it easy to insert Textile commands into an article.

• 1-Jan-2006 - Investigate implementing section editing. Update: 5-Jan-2006. After spending some time lately editing articles, I can definitely see the benefit of section editing.

• 31-Dec-2005 - Minor CSS flaw exists in the yellow navigation bar when displayed in some versions of the Internet Explorer browser.

• 29-Dec-2005 - Complete site docs: about, app help, Textile manual, Textile quick ref, and article style guidelines. Have been avoiding creating/finishing these articles. Hopefully, they'll be finished by 31-Dec-2005. Update: 5-Jan-2006. These are done for now except for the style guidelines. Will borrow some practices used at Wikipedia for styling an article.

• 29-Dec-2005 - Fix bug with showing article count in sidebar, the number of articles on the index page, total articles contributed to on the user's profile page, and the list of articles contributed to by a user. Profile page count/listing seems to be showing logically deleted articles. Should be fixed by 31-Dec-2005. Update: 31-Dec-2005. When an article with multiple versions is deleted, the older versions appear in the "contributed to" count on the user's profile page. The main version of the article is deleted, but older versions aren't. And the older versions are still accessible even though the main version has been deleted. The count in the sidebar and the index pages are correct. This bug is only for the user's profile page and for showing the articles contributed to by a user. Won't be fixed right now. It's not that important. I'll look at it later.
