Asher's diary of all technical (non-content) changes being made on WikiVet. Log of work on WikiVet carried out in 2010 here.



January

12/01/2011

Collection Extension

Now installed and configured. User can now create PDF's and books by using the link in the sidebar under 'Print/Export'. Extension modified to alert users to unreliable nature of creating books (our server may not be quick enough?) as well as removing the option to buy the book (this may be re-instigated). Change in code documented here.

11/01/2011

ConfirmAccount Extension

Users are now added to the database for the mailer automatically. Extension no longer adds users to a category based on their year of graduation.

10/01/2011

Collection Extension

Now under investigation. Should deliver the ability to produce books and PDF's from the sites pages. Clearance and further testing required of this extension before it is made live.

Dada Mailer

Upgraded to the latest version 4.3.1 and have integrated the database directly into the wiki's database to enable better integration with existing extensions, namely confirm account, and to stream line the back end of WikiVet.

07/01/2011

ConfirmAccount

Preliminary work has been carried out in an attempt to automatically add new users to the newsletter mailing list. Re-organisation of the the database will be required.
