Sounds like a good plan. I've been testing the new theme with a v1.9 install of Moinmoin, but I should be able to create a branch and backport that to v1.5 pretty easily. After that, I can work on the tweaks and we can look into upgrading the underlying software. Dimi mentioned that he has some maintenance scripts written up, and I also have some on my Bitbucket account so getting the tarball up again and converting the data shouldn't take too long. - Kyle

What i'd like is that you first upgrade the theme for now, whatever changes it may need. For this task don't care about search fields, tables, sponsoring, ... The result should be a wine wiki with the same quality and/or bugs as we have now, just with a new look. After that is pushed and running and you fixed remaining bugs with the new look, you can then start fixing other bugs, changes things (keep in mind to talk to Jeremy Newman) and upgrade the wiki software itself. -- Best Regards, André Hentschel

However since this is about the Wiki theming I'll mention a problem I ran into last week-end: tables. There are two problems with them: * A default table is totally ugly: it has no border and no cell padding so it does not look like a table at all, just text appearing at random on the page. Here is an example: http://wiki.winehq.org/FrancoisGouget * During the preview the tables look nothing like after the preview. In fact they look good enough during the preview, it's only on the final page that they get ugly. This makes the preview totally useless as far as tables are concerned :-( In the page I was working on I worked around this by specifying CSS styles for every single cell. The resulting wiki source code is pretty ugly but at least the result looks like tables. http://wiki.winehq.org/WineTestBotVMs#hw_tables Oh, and the Wiki seems to have trouble sending emails(*) so saving changes is super slow. But that's probably not something you can do anything about.

Updating WineWiki Theme?
Hi everybody, Although my hiatus was longer than expected, I've been making progress with updating the wiki code over the past few days (spring break is a very good thing). My workflow is a bit non-linear so I want to sort my changes into patches first, but fingers-crossed, I'll be pushing them to my Bitbucket account by the weekend. I did want to ask for input on a few things: 1. Should we just keep Moinmoin's search, replace it with the custom Google search, or offer both? 2. How about the icon? I can get the standard WineHQ one to display fine, but I'm not sure about which approach to take. Essentially, do what's simplest for us, or should I make it play well with other themes too? 3. Finally, the credits are currently just text links. In the future though, if Dimi wanted to, we could have a "sponsored by Lattica" banner like the Codeweavers ones on the other pages. After I get the theme together & test it some more on different browsers, I can look into migrating the data to the newest Moinmoin version. -Kyle
