If something goes wrong and the image thumbnail isnt generated, there is no way to regenerate it. It should automatically be regenerated if it doesnt exist, or have some way to do this in the admin interface.

The upgrade scripts do not work on windows, though it should be possible for them to work.

• Rename side menu from Locations > Geolocation (to improve consistency of communication)

Left hand menu in pop-up:

• Move city search field to top of left hand menu
• Give city search field a title: 'Search for city or co-ordinate'
• Change small right-facing arrow to a magnifying glass icon (to indicate search)
• Move country dropdown to below 'city search' field.
• Add title to dropdown: 'Specify country (optional)'
• Change styling on '+' and 'center city' - the look like buttons but aren't clickable
• Change '+' heading > Add location
• Add hover-over titles to list items (eg 'Add location to map' and 'Center city')
• Upon clicking add to map, clear list and search box
• Change wording from 'Disable > 'Clear' or 'Delete' (in fact doesn't disable duplicate the remove button? if so, delete it.)
• Remove latitude/longitude box and replace with 'point description field' (essential!)

Within edit location pop-up:

• Basic tab: add intro text: 'Name your location with a short label, url and full title.'
• Change title of 'Label' field to 'Location label'
• Label link? Is this a url? rename to 'Label url'.
• 'Short description for points listing' completely confusing. rename to 'Full locatiion title'
• Suggestion: Merge Text and Basic tabs.

• Text tabs - add small intro text: 'Change the description of this location.'
• Change radio button in text tab from 'view' to 'preview'
• Add label to Description field in Text tab: 'Location description'
• Change text in field 'fill in the point description' > 'Describe the location...'

• Image tab, add intro: Add an image to this location.
• Image tab: Can you take existing images from archive? Should be able to!
• Image tab - add sub heading: Resize image' (Q: does it crop or scale?)

• Video tab, add intro: 'Add a video to this location from YouTube, Vimeo or a Flash video.' - (I'm not sure about the flash aspect...)
• Video ID - what does this mean??? url? internal media active ID???
• Move source dropdown to above Video ID.
• Q: What do the flash dropdown fields do?
• Rename 'source' to 'Video source'
• Add subheading: 'Resize video' (Q: does it crop or scale?')

• Icon tab: add intro: Add an icon to your location.
• Change text 'add marker' to 'Add marker icon'
• Q: how do you upload your own icons? Surely this can be done here?

Map interface:

• Make base layer pop up appear automatically as open (not minimized)
• include title for map dimensions in top right. 'Map size'
• Make arrows into + and - icons rather than left and right (clicking left and right to increase up and down is counter-intuitive)

Text:

• Please change the following string: "The removal is from all language versions of the article" in the point removal popup to: "The point will be removed from all translations of the article".

A maximum limit can be set for the article name field in the article type definition.

Refactor Users with Zend/Doctrine

The current implementation of article read statistics does not work correctly with external caching (e.g. Squid, Varnish, Nginx). It also counts bots as legitimate reads.

More detail here: http://wiki.sourcefabric.org/display/CS/JavaScript-based+article+read+statistics

Please research if there is already something out there that does this before we reinvent the wheel.

Implement the data access classes for the geo-location tables

The "location" template object will allow the display of the geolocation data.

Implement list_article_locations tag; it will list the locations in the defined order.

The template tag will use a Javascript function to display the article map.

Create JSON callback API which will allow to call php functions and class methods from javascript. Handle permissions.

The user should never lose their work when they are editing a page.

Current idea:
Save the POST/GET variables to session when the user makes a request. If their session times out or if they are logged out in any way(for example, they click logout in a separate tab), they should be presented with a popup login form. It should tell them that their work is saved and they can resume editing once they log in again.

Coordinate with Andrey / Holman about this.

Implement a UI for listing and editing the article attachments. Use the image archive screens as a model.

The UI should be based on jQuery. Create a widget that embeds the file archive.

Create a widget that can display an RSS feed.
Configurable params:

• Feed URL
• Number of articles to show

Our default home page should show an RSS feed of Sourcefabric news.

NOTE: this is a low priority for this release, only do it if there is extra time.
