Cleaning up - Fixing up
Wed, 03/19/2008 - 21:29 — ucarToday I rearranged web_dev completely. Although some of the root folders still stand, I cleaned out what I could. This was all of course backed up onto my own machine for now. I’m pretty sure none of this stuff is needed that was deleted and what might be needed was archived in the correct location. This will be an on going process, but I think it’s already easier to navigate around and find psd’s and get to the correct site, without the confusion of having multiple sere, ccb, isse, asp folders under main.
Mid-March Madness
Mon, 03/17/2008 - 21:36 — ucarToday’s meeting touched on many different things going on and has given me some direction on where we should be going with some of the directory structuring. We decided to have an images and docs folder inside each folder that requires such and not have a central location for all docs and images. But we are going to structure web_dev in a more logical way by placing all non-web files (files that don’t go on the web) in a separate folder. I’ve delegated many tasks to others and some to myself:
Categorizing CCB
Mon, 02/25/2008 - 23:09 — ucarToday I sat down with DJan and asked her to help me categorize all of the folders that are in the CCB folder that aren't relevant to the ccb site alone and we came up with the following list of categories:
- workshops
- programs
- publications
- projects
Another Day...
Wed, 01/30/2008 - 23:09 — ucar404 Fun:
Today I added a snippet to track my 404 pages with google analytics, I recieved from this site.
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
_uacct = "xxxxx-x";
urchinTracker("/404.php?page-not-found=" + _udl.pathname + _udl.search + "&linked-from=" + _ubd.referrer);
</script>
ISSE Sweep
Fri, 01/25/2008 - 23:09 — ucarToday's main goal was cleaning up ISSE. I've pretty much deleted all of the forwarders and replaced them with a custom error message. This '404.php' page trys to be all encompasing of every file I know I delete or change.
This Error document is broken into the following areas with the following custom scripting:
- All jsp files that were on a root level. These files have all been converted to php.
Old School
Fri, 12/14/2007 - 06:23 — ucarSo in a continuing process, I sent several links to CCB to go through and tell me what they are and why they are the way that they are. Which for most of them they are there for a reason and she could tell me why, but lots of them are very dated and for the most part could be rolled into some type of archival system. For the most part we are never going to do away with these sites as they are, but we agreed today to make some sort of hub or page that pulls them together on the main site.
Case Sensitive
Wed, 12/05/2007 - 06:23 — ucarSo it turns out that I screwed up the LAR by downloading it off of the web and then uploading it again. For some reason this seems to drop all of the uppercase letters thereby messing up any links and images that are referred with an uppercase letter. I tested out the same scenario on my laptop and it appears that there is no such problem, so I'm going to try to get Erin to upgrade winSCP tomorrow to see if I can solve that problem.
The PHP Switch
Mon, 12/03/2007 - 06:23 — ucarLast Friday we had a meeting and made a few decisions for the future of this site. First of all we are doing away with php, which is my first and foremost job right now. Second, we are pretty much set on using Drupal which is a more eventual solution. Third, we need to possibly redesign or revamp all the sites to have a more standard look and feel. To accomplish this I'll need to hold further meetings to begin to figure out and architect the information so it's logical and follows a standard.
