Site Upgraded and Wiki installed

June 8th, 2008 by admin in Site News

After 3 months I’m kind of happy to start promoting this project ‘out there’. Today I installed Wordpress 2.5.1 with no problems (I’d learnt from a previous upgrade on another blog) and I’ve also installed DokuWiki to provide the ‘Best Practice’ database.

The main activity from my perspective on this site will be to continue populating the links and reading lists, and start priming the Wiki.

Another stage of the process is to implement some Mailing List software; having recently used the phpList software for ActionForInvolvement (www.actionforinvolvement.org.uk) I’m going to stay with that tool, and use it to promote CommunityNet and CommunityHost.

I’ve also installed a Post Approval patch that will allow me to manage the requests for help and offers of help.  This was something that was giving me cause for concern (stopping the spammers!) so I hope that the slight delay won’t cause problems.
