Hi all, it seems to be decided that we're moving the blog to our website (i.e. to be hosted on lilypond.org), and we're doing it asap, because as Paul said:

(i.e. not on > wordpress.com...) Great! I definitely need help&advice - i don't have time to figure out details on my own :( As i see it, there are a few decisions we have to make: 1) are we going to use WordPress or something else, for example Mezzaine: 2013/6/3 Federico Bruni <fedel...@gmail.com>: > Another option could be Mezzanine, a CMS based on Django which has many > built-in features (including blogging). > Considering that many lilypond developers know python, it could be a wise > choice in case we need to hack on it. > Mezzanine has some scripts to import from other CMS (Wordpress included): > http://mezzanine.jupo.org/docs/blog-importing.html ? (my vote is with Wordpress, but i really have no experience apart from last few days) 2) what the precise address/location should be? Paul suggests: 2013/6/4 Paul Morris <p...@paulwmorris.com>: > Ideally it could be at www.lilypond.org/blog/ on the lilypond.org domain and > to some extent integrated into the main LilyPond website. (i.e. make it > easy to navigate back and forth between the two sites seamlessly) (another option could probably be blog.lilypond.org, but i have no idea whether that's a purely cosmetical choice or has some implications.) As for the integration, i think that the blog should be accessible as an item in the top menubar (I.e. next to Introduction, Manuals, Download and Community). If we go for WordPress, Jacques Menu showed a starting point. Jacques, i count on your help as well! :) There is no way i could do this alone. 2013/6/3 Jacques Menu <jacques.m...@tvtmail.ch>: > Hello, > > I've switched from CMS Made Simple (lives up to its name) to WordPress for > its power and rich set of plugins. > > Using 3.5.1 and a child of the new twentytwelve template makes browsing on > phones and templates much more practical (you can check with > http://gioiacantar.ch). > > You'll need: > - write FTP access to the folder hosting the site; > - a dedicated MySQL database; > - PHP activated; > - ability to run cron tasks. > > Installing WordPress is a one click operation.
