We also:
- Created an image gallery for event and board member pictures.
- Created a backup of the old website, which is now housed on the VU server for archival purposes.
- Created an "Update Contact Info" form for List of Members page.
- Added wikis for each committee, which will be demonstrated today.
- Set up @tenn-share.org email addresses.
- Set up some URL redirects from popular pages on the old site to their new URLs.
- Ran security and feature updates for both Drupal core and installed modules.
Requests to the Board:
- Contact your Webmistresses if your committee would like to utilize the new wiki. You will need to register for a Drupal account.
- Send in your picture for the Board gallery if you have not already done so.
- Report any broken links, OR links you think are popular enough to deserve a redirect, to your Webmistresses. (If a redirect is in place, when you visit a link from the old site, you will be sent directly to the equivalent page on the new site.)
