Those links are supposed to scroll to the appropriate section, not link directly. For some reason that does not work in Chrome, it does in Firefox. I think it's some of the included JavaScripts breaking that.

Have you thought about migrating the website to Wordpress. Would be very easy to edit the content and add images.

moltra avatar Oct 18 '20 22:10 moltra

Yes, I think there's even an incomplete setup for that. Not really moving forward due to lack of time.

I have multiple website on wordpress, I can do it if you want me to

@kintel, what do you think. Is there a way to revive the wordpress prototype?

t-paul avatar Oct 18 '20 22:10 t-paul

I can clone the site in Wordpress like it is now, and you can see what it would look like. and how it would be to maintain.

I'm not sure where it's hosted, DNS looks like a namecheap hosted WordPress. The site link is https://www2.openscad.org/.

looks pretty good, do you have a list of things that need to be done yet?

moltra avatar Oct 18 '20 23:10 moltra

That needs to be rebranded back to the new colours (ie as site is now) & slogan.

I believe it would be mostly syncing up with the current site (missing content, dynamic links for snapshot download, new library section, conversion of the gallery). Maybe the menu could also do with a little bit of reshuffling, e.g. the Gallery seems a bit lost under Community.

@MichaelAtOz I think that is the new color scheme, no? I'm not sure, I should have a couple of flyers somewhere @kintel gave me last FOSDEM. I seem to remember those were matching the style of that design/branding.

That is easy to do in Wordpress.

Also needs a CDN and maybe a little back end tweaking to speed up the website.

The current site colours/slogan were set when I did the Merch. Capture-slogan Matches: (it's not clear in the photo, but the background colour of the mug and notebook, is the OpenSCAD cornfield, same as the site edge/background) Capture-merch

Closing, things have moved on. Original issue was fixed removing broken JQuery calls.
