When shall we begin to build our list of topics to discuss with Blackbaud for this year's Charleston? Who's going to do the surveys and manage the list this time? For those who managed the list last time are there things we should do differently/better this time around?

[Peter Gulka]

That was primarily Elaine Tucker's baby. This year we are going to use the Ideas section of the site instead of polls.

www.blackbus.org/ideas has not formally launched but it only has a couple of tweaks left.

[Elaine Tucker]

I'd be willing to do what I could again this year. I think using the ideas section will help tremendously.

Can I be the first to suggest: Ability to maximise all and any windows?

The Ideas section is live. Maybe Elaine can administer it? Every idea that is submitted needs to be moderated.

I'd be more than happy to administer.... just don't make me wear a Frock Collar! (anything but THAT)

I've set you up as an Admin on the Ideas page. Beside every Idea you should now see a little link called "Admin Links". Let me know if you can see that, and we can get started on training you.

Pat Franklin has been great in helping me get this set up so she'll probably be involved too.

De plane De plane! (err.... guess that technically should say ... The Link! The Link!)

I see it.

Yea, I'm a "little" punchy from all our DE... re-enrollment time!

[Peter Gulka]

bumpity bump. I've had some issues with the Ideas page. Can y'alls give it a try and see if it works?

I'm looking specifically at it letting you login, vote and submit a new idea.

[Melissa Siobhan]

I have tried a few times over the past few weeks and have continually been unsucessful.

[Elaine Tucker]

It's really glitchty for me today...

First I was sent to the Pligg Beta 9 page when I attempted to sign on: http://www.blackbus.org/ideas/#log_reg_box

Then I went back to the bus re-clicked on the ideas page - got a page tried to log in and...

Error: '/home/blackbus/public_html/ideas/settings.php' was not found! Try renaming 'settings.php.default' to 'settings.php'
Please fix the above error(s), install halted!

[Peter Gulka]

at this very moment I am trying some stuff to fix it

[Peter Gulka]

bumpity bump bump. This isn't the big call to arms that will happen when all the Ideas from the Add Me to the List forum are created, but the tool is working properly and the data migration is almost complete.

The agenda items for our pre-conference meeting with Blackbaud will be determined by the number of votes each idea gets. Don't vote for something that doesn;t really affect you or the semi-scientific nature of the voting is damaged. The top X ideas in each category will be brought forward.
