[VOTE][WWW] Homepage, Drop Inner-Scrollbars & Unite News Areas
I suggest to dropoff the scrollbars from the News & Blog posts areas, on the Homepage, and unite these areas into one zone, that notifies about, well, anything, whether latest news, posts, wanted volunteers, important upcoming dates, events, etc. Personally, I don't think the inner/frame scrollbars help much. In fact, they adhere reading, and I find it hard to work with 3 scrollbars on this rather simple homepage, in order to read a just a few lines (usually, the latest blog posts & news don't contain more than 5 items), hence, the scrollbars are redundant.

Re: [VOTE][WWW] Homepage, Drop Inner-Scrollbars & Unite News Areas
Perhaps you saw my post on changing from scrollbars to a carrousell slider similar to this one: http://showcase.awkwardgroup.com/ The reason that scrollbars were used is to not create a huge whitespace with a lot of content on the right side while the central part being static. The scrollbar created a fixed design of it all. A carrousel slider provides a much better way to show content without having to increment the space needed. I agree the inner/frame scrollbars are a mess, and some works need to be done with the classes news_all and campaign. Previously (almost 4 months ago) I recommend using a pane system, which will allow the user to increment the size of the widget through a hide/show on the title (this was more applied to a Faq site). Making it possible to consume initially a minimum of space. However it seems many people in this group have no idea what Javascript's frameworks are, confusing them with a server-side scripting language. http://markmail.org/thread/wmx2tnusflwzzpu5 On 7/12/14, Tal Daniel wrote: > I suggest to dropoff the scrollbars from the News & Blog posts areas, on > the Homepage, and unite these areas into one zone, that notifies about, > well, anything, whether latest news, posts, wanted volunteers, important > upcoming dates, events, etc. > > Personally, I don't think the inner/frame scrollbars help much.

Re: Website: decorating the scrollpanes
I think the scrollbar is fine, it helps keep the content from overflowing the design of the page. That said, I think the nested scrollbars do not serve any porpouse at all. However I presented a better solution without abusing the scrollbar functionality and maybe increasing the attractiveness of the homepage.

I don't suppose there's an issue of keeping Blogs on top. What had been done in the past is to "manually" move older items to the news archive at /news/index.html.

Given discussions about the website home page just form today, you can see there is considerable interest in improving our landing page. Your design incorporates some much needed creative elements! Whenever you can communicate again is just fine. Looking forward to more of your communication and ideas. > Marcus (OOo) wrote: > > Am 07/02/2014 09:41 PM, schrieb Andrea Pescetti: > >> Marcus (OOo) wrote: > >>> Am 07/02/2014 07:50 PM, schrieb Andrea Pescetti: > http://getbootstrap.com/css/#buttons I'm not really sure, maybe it > will > look very bad, but maybe there are some elements can we can work with. > >>> > >>> Maybe good or bad.

Re: [WWW] home page/website(?) restyle
I Join Kay's with the compliments. Nice ideas. I think you demonstrated how Bootstrap library can be utilized for the Homepage/site.

Re: Fwd: [www] NEW language Selection Dropdown!
I reordered the language list, and fixed the spacing to line separator. Take into account that styles may change in the future, as there are requests to use Bootstrap library, or sorts.

Re: Fwd: [www] NEW language Selection Dropdown!
Am 07/12/2014 10:10 PM, schrieb Tal Daniel: I reordered the language list, and fixed the spacing to line separator. looks good. Have you seen already that the current sorting looks a bit incomplete? The languages with latin characters should be sorted via their native names and the non-latin languages maybe via ISO code. Then the visible order is perfect. Take into account that styles may change in the future, as there are requests to use Bootstrap library, or sorts. I hope so. :-) Marcus On Thu, Jul 10, 2014 at 12:42 AM, Marcus (OOo) wrote: Am 07/09/2014 02:30 PM, schrieb Andrea Pescetti: On 08/07/2014 Tal Daniel wrote: Regarding the ORDER of languages, we have a tie. Should we take that to a VOTE? -- No need to. It's a minor thing. I think that the bottom line is: sort by something that is visible and sort in a way that a native speaker of a language based on a non-Latin alphabet would find normal. So long as it has a logic, I'm fine with that and I think others will be too. +1 Whatever the sorting will look like, it has to be traceable for the user. Indeed here there are different conventions around, for example http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/locale.aspx (just to pick one with a long list, but any "corporate" site will do) lists all Latin first, then Greek, Cyrillic and others, by alphabet. While wow, that must be a nearly complete list. ;-) I've done some more researching and found the following website with the same sorting rule: - Youtube (see footer) - Facebook (see header) - Google+ (see footer) - Twitter (see header) All sort first via Latin, then Cyrillic, then Arabic, then Indian, then Far-East. So, the bigger and most known websites seem to have a common sorting. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer for some reason puts Hebrew between "Italiano" and "Basa Jawa" (does this sound "natural" to you?). Of course, it's again the sorting via ISO codes. Just have a look into the HTML code: :-P it - Italiano he - Hebrew jv - Basa Jawa But to answer your (rhetorical ;-) ) question: No, I would expect a more visible and therefore reasonable sorting. BTW: It's the same for Mozilla (see the language button in the footer). Even when the visible result is different to Wikipedia. We also expose ISO codes, so sorting by codes could be a way to make it simpler. Whatever works best for you, Tal, will probably work for us too! @Tal: Finally: It seems the common sorting rule is first via Latin, then Cyrillic, then Arabic, then Indian, then Far-East (more or less this way as I cannot interprete every character set of this world). So, I would suggest to sort this way, too. And yes, I know that I wrote something different in my previous mails. But after looking closer on other websites I think I have to change my opinion.

Re: Code snippets from oooforum in AOO website?
OK, I finally got off my backside and called The OOoForum owner. Seems that he is alive, well, and very busy and was not even aware that the site was down. He said that he obviously has not been doing a good job and is willing to discuss with the AOO team moving content and/or site. Let me know who should have his contact information and I will send it on. Obviously I don't want to post his phone number to this list.
