To Do
in the Login screen, change the text to say:To create an account please register in our forum. Once you have registered send an email to the Wiki Group Moderator a Wiki membership.figure out how I can edit the "navigation" bar at the left (see: Navigation)like add a link to the forum and the main kjams site? like forum and home?
Fill in About with the version number of the wiki we're running, and any special mods you've done so somebody else could re-create this setupRemove all references to http://www.kjams.com/ (eg: from the forum) since i'm going to redirect that to the kJams page eventuallyI removed the two links I add. Is this what you where referring to? - bradNo, i liked the link to the wiki, that was good. I just wanted to remove the link to the root of kjams.com
make http://www.visionquestcenter.com/webmail/ redirect to https? can we do that? or does it have to go to kjams? if so, i'll enable webmail on kjams.com and we can redirect there- I added ssl to visionquestcenter.com. Note this does not force them to use it ssl. Not sure is there is a standard way to do this.
- Update, I disabled webmail for visionquestcenter.com sites running on the port 80 so now webmail is only available on the port 443 site. Seems to work well. Let me know or just change it back if this isn't going to work for you. If you have any links on the site to webmail make sure they are the full path like "https://www.visionquestcenter.com/webmail/src/login.php". Personally I setup webmail differently. I setup dns for webmail.mydomain.com and create a website that servers just the webmail interface.
- umm, okay, except that I have clients that have it bookmarked to go to the http version. can we put a redirect from http to https so their book marks still work? plus moving it off port 80 makes it fail behind firewalls right? why move it off? brad - because https is port 443. You wanted webmail to redirect from http to https. http port 80, https port 443.
- Okay, I figured out how to add alias's in Server Admin. Keep in mind I'm used to just editing the httpd.conf files which at this stage are pretty easy for me for the kind of things I do and they (unlike osx server admin) are well doc'ed all over the internet. I'm not saying I don't like it it's just new to me. I also added an alias to visionquestcenter.com/ to www.visionquestcenter.com/ so I don't have to add the same redirect to webmail there to. If you want to change it just make it look like www.visionquestcenter.com's alias's.
- can we do spam filters at the server?
- You should consider upgrading to Tiger Server for Mail Services. We can do spam filtering without it but it looks like a fair amount of work. Here is a OSX Spam Assassin Install HowTo to give you an idea of what is entailed. I am definitely capable of doing it but these kinds of things can take time to get set properly. Mail service could be down for a bit. Let me also look into using those black-hole lists you hate.
- that's something i'd really like to do, move to Tiger. i have it here. haven't installed it cuz haven't had time, and know it's a nightmare and NOT a one-click operation. or is it now? how hard would it be? I can put the installer in there if you want to take a look. If you decide you're willing to do that, let's first get settled into a good state, and I'll make a full backup.
- I don't have any expierence upgrading osx "server" from panther to tiger but regular osx has been pretty painless. If you have any links to any gotcha's send them my way. Just make sure you have a backup of /etc /var /usr /opt /Library. "tar -cvzf server_backup.tar.gz /etc /var /usr /opt /Library" from the command line should do it. Might be big and a little time consuming.
- upgrade SQL & php to latest (to get unicode etc)
- upgrade the wiki to the latest
- enable google maps (actually I can do this once we get 1.5)
- fix the navigation bar
- make sure login works using forum credentials
- make sure feedback form works
- check out: Map and note the index errors. See GoogleMaps.php on line 53, i tried to "if" it out, but don't know php actually. also tried wfSuppressWarnings(); in the MonoBook.php file (as the doc suggests) but it did not work
- upgrade the forum
- enable image maps I tried to do this myself, see Sandbox.
- cookies don't work in the forum, it never remembers me, i always have to login, even if i've checked the "remember me" box
- some users are still saying the forum does not send a confirmation / activate their account
- some users complain that their accounts expire (go inactive) after a time, and I have to manually activate them
- upgrade to Tiger server (I'll help, we can do that during christmas or the first couple weeks in jan, i'll be home all the time)
- enable french, german and japanese (maybe we need to upgrade for unicode?), since i plan to support kJams 1.0 in those languages
- Fix the wiki URL so it doesn't have index.php
