Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] PlanetOSGeo revamp

Hi Sandro,

The planet software is intended to show only the X last posts from the
aggregation list and not as a full archive. On the other hand, you can get
older posts reaching the feed archived at the main OSGeo website at
https://www.osgeo.org/community-news/

Best regards

I have changed the settings for the geotools blog to include everything
until the "jump break", and edited
http://geotoolsnews.blogspot.ca/2018/02/geotools-19-beta-released.html with
a jump break for testing.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] PlanetOSGeo revamp

[Jorge Sanz]

Hi all again,

I've made the change[1] and new planet theme is in production. Let's see
how it works and later we can iterate over it to make it even better (maybe
we should put Foundation sponsor logos there?).

My sure next step here will be to purge all planet entries that are
pointing to non-existent blogs, or that have not published any post in
2017. I'll notify back when that clean-up is done.

All the best

I preferred to put it on top. On the bottom forces you to scroll if you
want to collapse it again. Ideally it should be inside the post (so
betweent the second and the third paragraph) but to be honest I didn't
wanted to spend more time parsing DOM elements and better work on other
things (like removing all the invalid blogs) U_U

My approach (since this was all pure JS code) was to only parse the first
level of DOM elements. Since images are inside paragraphs and in general
other images where not that bad*, well I thought it was good enough. The
planet is always going to be a bit messy since it's an aggregation of all
types of contents, it's impossible to have a consistent look.

* I can remember for example a graph from one of PaulR posts

Same, we capture the language of the posts when people apply, but the
software itself does not allow any type of filtering. Personally I like to
see posts in all languages because it shows the diversity. And this
approach of collapsing the posts help to go through those you don't
understand quickly, as you'd do in your RSS reader.

Thanks for your feedback Sandro.

It is weird that the "Read more..." link is at the top of
the excerpt rather than below, can it be moved ?

Is it possible to avoid embedded images ? Or the posts
from gvSIG "International call for gvSIG Association
products/services distributors " comes with a huge image.

Last issue I see is the presence of non-english posts,
but I don't think you can do anything for them at the
planet configuration side.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] PlanetOSGeo revamp

Hi again, hopefully, my last update this topic :-)

Back from holidays, I think I'm finished with the planet revamp.

I've removed the j/k navigation (was too buggy) and implemented the
suggestion of stripping the entries to the first two paragraphs so it's
easier to browse the planet and just clicking on a "Read more" link at the
beginning of the post will display the rest of the entry. Mind that some
blogs only offer the post title (like Geotools) and others just an
excerpt), nothing I can do on that front so, on those cases, you are forced
to visit the original website.

Take a look and if there are no complains I'll update the planet theme next
week.

 Another nice feature of the old block was to jump from one to the next
 article with the "k" and "j" keys.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] PlanetOSGeo revamp

[Jorge Sanz]

OK hi again,

I did some updates to the design, and also added a small JS library for
j/k/o navigation that sincerely, does not work that well. Result in the
same url [1].

I've also moved the full new theme to a new folder[2], so in theory,
switching to the new theme would be as easy as committing here[3] the theme
name. If you are happy with the current status, please feel free to deploy
the change, otherwise, I'll do that as soon as possible.

For me, next step on this small project is a big clean-up of blogs (say any
wrong url or no new content over the last two years) and then try to get
new sources.

Cheers!

Well this really is up to every blogger because the planet softaware just
takes the RSS content and some people put the full article, others and
excerpt, others nothing.

What I can do in the planet web interface is use javascript to reduce the
content to a couple of lines so you have to navigate to the blogger
website. Maybe optionally I can allow to click somewhere to get the full
content displayed.

Ok so someone else was using that, apart from me :-) For sorme reason (I
never investigated) that feature stopped working at some point and frankly,
as everything else on the planet part, never had the energy to fix it,
until now.

I'll take a look and try to get it working again ^_^

I'm almost on holidays, but if the weather is really bad here this weekend
I may have some time to work on this, otherwise it will have to wait until
March when I come back to RealWorld(TM).

Thanks for your feedback!!

Yes, thanks a lot.

Yes, maybe only the first x line should be shown.

Another nice feature of the old block was to jump from one to the next
article with the "k" and "j" keys.
Not sure if that could be ported as well?

thanks,
Markus

Thanks for taking this task !
One thing that I found annoying in the old planet and is still
present in the new one is having full articles dumped on the page.

I'd rather just see short summaries for each, so that I can
see more titles in less scrolling. A click to read all article
doesn't seem too much work, if the title and short summary is
interesting.

[OSGeo-Discuss] PlanetOSGeo revamp

[Jorge Sanz]

Hi everyone,

Our blogs aggregator has been in "maintenance" mode for a long time so I
spent a few hours in trying to modernize a bit its appearance and I'd like
to get your input before I commit the changes.

Please take a look and let me know if you see anything you'd like to
address:

http://planet.osgeo.org/new_planet/

The website is responsive so on narrow screens the sidebar moves to the
bottom. I need to put a specific header or even maybe makes more sense to
just have the intro at the beginning instead and remove the rest of the
sidebar content for that use case.

After we get the new "continent", I'll start another thread regarding the
content itself (that needs a serious cleaning).

Cheers!!
