* Look into Wordpress new themeing --[[User:Dave|Dave]] ([[User talk:Dave|talk]]) 11:40, 2 February 2013 (EST) |
|||
:: Possible starting points: [https://wordpress.org/extend/themes/twentytwelve Twenty Twelve], the default Wordpress theme, supposed to support major Wordpress features (probably the best to [https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes child off of]); [http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/sempress SemPress], semantic goodness; [http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/toolbox Toolbox] & [http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/blankslate BlankSlate], in the raw to start from (almost) scratch --[[User:Dave|Dave]] ([[User talk:Dave|talk]]) 16:10, 15 February 2013 (EST) |
|||
* Use [http://support.google.com/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2465776 Google Calendar]—embed in website and allow public subscribing |
|||
* Use prettier urls? See [http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks Using Permalinks] and the [http://sagamorehillspta.org/wp-admin/options-permalink.php the settings]. --[[User:Dave|Dave]] ([[User talk:Dave|talk]]) 22:21, 3 February 2013 (EST) |
|||
===Done=== |
|||
* Suggest adding a newsletter signup opportunity to homepage (Contact provides code under Contacts, Grow My Contact List) --[[User:Dave|Dave]] ([[User talk:Dave|talk]]) 17:33, 3 February 2013 (EST) |
|||
:: ✓ [http://list.9.0ne.org/archive/sagamore.online/2013-August/000064.html Done] (for PTA homepage anyway) -[[User:Dave|Dave]] ([[User talk:Dave|talk]]) 20:34, 18 August 2013 (EDT) |
|||
* Remove the ability to leave comments on PTA website pages—the site is not a blog to host discussion, it just disseminates information. Instead, make sure contact information is readily available on all pages. --[[User:Dave|Dave]] ([[User talk:Dave|talk]]) 11:16, 2 February 2013 (EST) |
|||
:* Turned off interaction (notifying linked blogs, pingback & trackbacks, comments) by default for new content --[[User:Dave|Dave]] ([[User talk:Dave|talk]]) 16:46, 2 March 2013 (EST) |
|||
:* Disabled interaction on existing pages(13)/posts(3) (all we ever saw was spam, and our contact information (email) is available on the site)--[[User:Dave|Dave]] ([[User talk:Dave|talk]]) 18:53, 12 May 2013 (EDT) |
|||
* Link to the Constant Contact provided webpage for weekly newsletters instead of copy & pasting them onto the PTA homepage. --[[User:Dave|Dave]] ([[User talk:Dave|talk]]) 11:31, 2 February 2013 (EST) |

==How To== |
|||
===Link to the newsletter=== |
|||
The most recent weekly Wildcat Update Newsletter should be linked from the [http://sagamorehillspta.org/ Sagamore PTA homepage]. Here's how to find the link (URL). |
|||
# Login to the [[Sagamore Hills online#Constant Contact|PTA Constant Contact account]] |
|||
# Find the Email Details page of the email (newsletter) to link to (in Recent Work, or Email) |

==Accounts== |
|||
Several ''accounts'' are associated with managing the website. |

Most website work will be done using this account by [http://sagamorehillspta.org/wp-admin logging into the site]. |
|||
<nowiki/>* Since passwords may be sent to the account email address, it's not appropriate to use the [http://list.9.0ne.org/list/listinfo/sagamore.online PTA online group email address]. |
|||
===Log=== |
|||
[[Sagamore Hills PTA Dreamhost account#Log|The ''log account'']], is used to [http://sagamorehillspta.org/stats view website-access statistics] generated by [http://wiki.dreamhost.com/Analog Dreamhost's Analog]. |
|||
===Server=== |
|||
If you need access to the server files, check out the [[Sagamore Hills PTA Dreamhost account#Server|server account]]. |
|||
===Database=== |
|||
Wordpress uses [[Sagamore Hills PTA Dreamhost account#Database|a ''database account'']]. |
