Re: [IPFire Artwork] New bootstrap skin

Hi Maurice, I’m planning on moving forward with the skin yes, that being said I’m no front-end developer, but I can try to build what someone else has photoshopped. Hint hint 😉 It’s not that I can’t find a way to create a “nice looking design” on my own, it just takes me a whole lot longer. So in short, if someone has a design/mockup that fits perfectly into this dashboard theme and wants it built, let me know. In the meantime I will just fix the problems logged on github and make sure it works as intended. The main challenge is a config screen for the skin, so things can be set without having to manually open the database/settings file.

Sorry for my late reply. I was impressed by your IPFire Bootstrap Theme, based on my concept redesign. Good work and thanks for sharing. Are you interested to go further with that and develop the complete WUI experience which would be used as the official IPFire WUI Theme?

Availability

Hey all, Unfortunately I need to announce that I'm pretty busy these days with authority, work and different other unwanted private stuff and non-digital projects which needs to be done. Means I can't work on the project for some weeks I guess. But the website has still some open obvious critical bugs where my help is not really needed :). For the Sidebar you can use the same version as on the Bootstrap website. I'll mail you when my situation is more relaxed. Sorry for this bad news. Best, Maurice

Bootstrap 4.1
by Maurice Gesswein 03 Aug '18

03 Aug '18

Hey all, I'll try to make it fast and direct. No negativ criticism or rude meanings are included and I really enjoy to be part of the IPFire project. As we all know since the upgrade to BS4.1 tons of UI related things broke or changed back to default behaviors at the new IPFire Website. *Are we willing to go the extra mile again to customize BS to the UI-design I designed or do we want to switch to the default BS theme, just do some adjustments and be live in a proper timeframe?* To be honest, I don't want to spend time and energy to think about how to merge the status quo of dev.ipfire.org to the planned new website design with a lot of QA work I actually already did. Brainwork for the future: When it comes to the WUI of IPFire, please think very careful if you want to use BS as well. I prefer to go with CSSGrid and e.g. React if you want to have something unique, modern and very mobile friendly. Taskboard: Please setup Wekan asap and create todos which are currently spread out in different mail threads. As I already wrote, I enjoy to do the UI und UX part for IPFire and really want that IPFire will stand out from their competitors some day, but I don't want to do a lot of orga stuff. A bit of orga stuff on my side is totally fine and expected. Please support me in that. Such a board will make us a lot more productive and transparent. Best, Maurice

Thoughts on the donation page
by Michael Tremer 26 Jul '18

26 Jul '18

Hello, I want to start a thread on the donation page. When I have been working on it, I had a few ideas and discovered a few problems with the flow. So I tried to change them, but am quite unsure if I came to the right conclusions... So this page... https://dev.ipfire.org/donate ...is supposed to encourage people to set up a recurring donation to the project. We benefit most from smaller regular donations than one- time donations. Therefore the process should be quick and easy. We have a few legal requirements which don't make this too easy for us to design an effortless process. The main issue with that is the address that we need. We need that to process payment and we will have to store it for tax records. This used to be a pop-up before and I moved this to the main box now because of two reasons: * We should be up-front that this is a requirement and not surprise people with the pop-up * I would like to have a pop-up that encourages people to change their one-time donation to a monthly one and two pop-ups feel a little bit annoying. That makes the main box a little bit large, but I think that at least it has all steps on it. Then, I removed the payment methods. This is easier to ask that in the backend and it would require some changes in the code there to make it work. We also don't always offer all payment options. Hence it is good that we know the amount and currency beforehand. I kept the icons though and moved then underneath the donate button because we should still show which payment options are potentially available. Can we add a logo for SEPA here? I am also considering to remove PayPal entirely. They are just a pain to deal with and ridiculously expensive. Credit card and SEPA should cover payments from anywhere in the world and easy and flexible. After someone has gone through the process, they will receive an email with a PDF document that contains the SEPA mandate if they have chosen SEPA. In case of credit card, there won't be any emails. The bank statements or credit card bill will have a link to the accounting software to end any recurring donations. I have considered sending a thank you email with a link, but people would loose it. Sending an email every time we take a payment is very annoying. Then, there is the pop-up to think about. I have no idea what that could look like. It should be nice and ask if the user would prefer to do a monthly donation of the amount that they have selected divided by four. So we should make a suggestion and make it one click to make it recurring. There should also be a "no thanks" option that just continues with the one-time payment. Potentially we won't show the pop-up for donations that are 10 EUR or USD. It doesn't make too much sense to break them into smaller monthly payments. Does anyone have any ideas for a good wording? Finally, I changed the split layout because it didn't feel natural to me to either fill in one or the other side to pick an amount to donate. Although there was a big "OR", I am personally happier with having those aligned from top to bottom. Comments? So that's it for now. I will hopefully find some time next week to write the texts for that page and maybe others. It doesn't come very natural to me, but I will give it a try. Hopefully we will be able to tell what the final shape of the page is going to be. Best, -Michael

Don't worry, I will keep you in the loop for now and there will still be plenty to do after version one is being rolled out. I will write an email shortly about the blog and that I cut corners :) That needs to be sorted eventually and I am happy to get some help with that.

Website Redesign: Static Pages
by Michael Tremer 19 Jul '18

19 Jul '18

Hello, I would like to ask a few questions about the static pages that we have. I am not sure what I should do with them content-wise and I hope that a bit more clarity about what they will look like might help. So, we have one big page which is a bit special which is the features page: https://dev.ipfire.org/features This one is a bit special in that sense that it has a lot of content and even needs a navigation bar. One of my initial thoughts was that it needs to be split up, but since the design works so well and it is not supposed to be that long the content needs to be shortened, screenshots need to be added and it should basically become a redirector to the wiki where people find information that is going more into depth. But what do we do with the remaining content? I tried to put everything onto a card and make it narrow (similar to the blog), but that I guess only works for the legal page: https://dev.ipfire.org/legal Then we have Support & Community from the top navigation. Should that potentially become one page? It has a lot of redundant information and probably most of that should be on the wiki. I don't want to talk about development here at all. https://dev.ipfire.org/get-support https://dev.ipfire.org/get-involved Then we have the artwork page: https://dev.ipfire.org/artwork I guess that should only have the logos there. It is supposed to be a place for the press to get it from. I am not even sure if it is linked anywhere but I occasionally use it in an email. Then we have the chat page: https://dev.ipfire.org/chat That content could potentially go to the community page. Finally, we need error pages. At the moment we have this: https://www.ipfire.org/does-not-exist It does not transport any particular message. I just tells the user off which isn't too nice. They could be a bit more creative, but at the same time they should be simple to implement because they are not a priority at all. The load-balancer we have in front of the web server also sends out error pages. For that we would need something that is a small page and everything fits into one single HTML file. I would like to have an error page in the webapp for these: * 400 - Bad Request * 403 - Forbidden * 404 - Not Found The load-balancer should have a page for these error codes: * 500 - Internal Server Error * 502 - Bad Gateway * 503 - Service Unavailable * 504 - Gateway Timeout Potentially this could all be the same page. The user doesn't need to know an exact reason why the page isn't loading. Best, -Michael

Progress on the blog
by Michael Tremer 18 Jul '18

18 Jul '18

Hello, finally, I managed to get the new site online. I installed a new fresh web server and migrated from nginx to Apache which was a little bit tricky... The URL is the same one: https://dev.ipfire.org/ The blog is available at https://blog.dev.ipfire.org/ Please have a look around. I guess it is best to have an email thread for each sub-page so that we can move them forward independently. This one is supposed to be for the blog: I cut many corners so far, but basically am quite confident that I implemented the design a fair bit. I didn't pay much attention to the mobile viewports, yet. So here is the list: * The sidebar menu will be quite tricky to move to the top when the screensize is reduced. Is there an alternative we can implement for now and replace this later? * I didn't use any of the icons, because I am not sure if there is a good way to download them all in one go instead of having so many loose SVG objects around. * I assumed that all headlines in the posts will have the same size (don't we need any hierarchy here?) and just set h1, h2, ..., h6 to a fixed size. Was that correct? Here is the page with all the demo content: https://blog.dev.ipfire.org/post/test * Images seem to expand to full width :( https://blog.dev.ipfire.org/post/introducing-the-ipfire-prime-box-by-founta… * I have no design for an empty search result: https://blog.dev.ipfire.org/search?q=sdhjkdh * I assumed that the year pages should be a list of the posts without author name clickable: https://blog.dev.ipfire.org/years/2018 * The big donate button is in the base template and therefore appeared at the top. I left it there for now because I thought it would be a good idea to have a donate button on the blog. In the posts we often encourage people to donate. Should we rather have the button at the bottom just like the LWL posts for posts that we tag to have that button? * Should also be a button for the RSS feed? That's what I have so far. Please comment :) Best, -Michael

DSGVO compliant?
by Sven 18 Jun '18

Hello, does the IPFire website have to be DSGVO compliant? We have a lot to do to do with various sites, and all the lawyer which I spoke have one thing in common: don’t use Google Webfonts, Adobe Typekit or any other Webfont service that tracks user data. I think that the fonts are the only resource that we get from a eternal server all the other scripts can be served from the „local“ web server. Greetings, Sven
