Re: [HOMEPAGE] Limited the height of the area for blog posts and news

I just wanted to help in this special topic. Of course it's not perfect and a lot could be improved. But this was not my intention. I got an idea how to limit the area and tried it. As an alternative solution I suggest that in the future, blog posts would be limited to the latest 2-3 blog posts, or moved to the area below the main page buttons. IMHO this wouldn't help as you assume that everybody is knowing and following this rule. Until today this hasn't helped for the past addings. If you still want to use the content boxes that you created, I'd move the titles OUT of the boxed areas (i.e. Recent news), add space between the boxes. Good idea.

Code snippets from oooforum in AOO website?
The spammers were so successful at www.oooforum.org that it is not responsive for several days now (much more than little outages we have been used to in the past). So it seems that the forum is dead. We had talked about that in the EN forum and we had made a backup of the content, especially the code snippets. A possibility would be to make a dedicated support section in the AOO website and to have one page per topic. I take that since forums are public, as long as the author of each post is kept, there is no problem putting the content online in the AOO website. Thoughts? If no objection, do we need to file a JIRA ticket? Hagar - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
