I'm not sure if I know what a sidebar page is. I thought he meant the table of
contents.
Well I see how to make such a page, but I don't know what it's supposed to look
like. Do you know any pages which use that template? Maybe seeing one will
give me an idea what to do.
If there's a chance that changing the template will cause a problem, I could
just create another page, and move the contents over.
Thanks,
brynn

Sorry, that intermediate email that's quoted below never made it into my
inbox...
A page with a side panel can be selected when you select a new template
for the page.
Page > Templates > Side Bar Page
I don't know what Martin meant to put into the side bar.
Might be that changing the template will loose the contents again
(changing back might restore it).

Ok, did I do the table of contents template correctly?

OMG! I don't know what happened. The last time I looked at it, which was
shortly before I sent the original message, everything was fine!
No, I did not try to change the template. I've actually been offline
since my
last reply, so I have no idea what might have happened.
There was some kind of problem with the site, during the time I was
working on
the page (when emails had been disabled, because of a suspected security
issue).
A couple of times, I had to try twice to publish, where it didn't go
through the
first time. I don't know if that would be related to the security issue or
not....or if that could have erased the edit mode.
Should I go ahead and replace the contents in Edit mode? Or should we
try and
figure out what went wrong first?
Just to make sure I do the right thing, I need to choose Table of
Contents from
the dropdown menu, right? That's what Martin means by "side panel"
isn't it?
Thanks,
brynn

The page seems to be empty right now in edit mode (I was shocked a bit,
when I visited it and it was empty - in published mode, it's still
there, just made a copy, just in case...), but it's using a Normal
template.
What happened? Was the contents lost on changing the template?

I thought it was using the Normal Page template. At least that's what I
was trying to do. I was just going to copy that and paste it into the
already existing page, overwriting it. If it's not the Normal Page, I
might need some help with that.
I would definitely need help with the sidebar layout. Maybe Patrick
knows how? He said he'd be busy this week, so moving it won't happen
immediately, either way.
Thanks,

Hi Brynn,
The content to the page looks good overall.
CMS wise, the page should use either the Normal Page, or the Sidebar
Page as the template. This is because we can't see for sure what it
will look like with an 'inherit' setting which picks a blank page.
I'd also encourage the use of the sidebar template as it's been very
useful for functional pages where detailed content goes in the main
left side part and action buttons go on the right sidebar to make it
easy to quickly move.
Best Regards, Martin Owens

Hi Friends,
As a result of my comment and concern about a long "warning"
message
which was meant to remind bug reporters about what kind of info needs
to be
included in the bug report,
details here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/17744
04
and also, it was the first time I realized that Help menu > Report a
Bug goes
directly to the Report Bugs page of the website
(https://inkscape.org/en/contribute/report-bugs/)
which in it's current state does not really perform as that kind of a
function
(it's more informational than instructional), Patrick and I have
overhauled that
page. We wanted to put the proposed change to the website team,
before setting
it live.
Here's the proposed new page (of course the red text at the
top would be
removed before going "live"):
https://inkscape.org/en/report-bugs-2-edit/
Purposely, the link to LP is at the bottom, to force users to at
least skim
through the bolded requirements before starting the new report.
Any comments, suggestions, etc. are welcomed.
Thanks,
brynn
(and Patrick)
PS - Just realized we probably should put some kind of inspirational
"thank you"
sentence at the bottom. "Thank you and congratulations for
contributing to
Inkscape" or something??
