Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Reorganized documentation: proof of concept

Hi all, Thanks very much for your enthusiastic responses and ideas about making the documentation more available to users when they need it. A quick update: the Documentation Interest Group has decided to present the documentation for Evergreen 3.0 and later releases in a re-organized format.

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Reorganized documentation: proof of concept

Hi, But without complications, would life be interesting? ;) More seriously, I could envision a way for the web staff client to link to the appropriate version (and section) of the community documentation in a reasonably maintainable way. Most pages in the web staff client have predictable

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Reorganized documentation: proof of concept

Life is complicated, isn't it? What I had in mind with my "constantly updated" phrase was that the documentation was at a community site that would consist of the most recent documentation. I wasn't taking into account the need to have all the different docs for all the different versions. I

I didn't think about this until I saw Kathy's message pop up but I could also imagine a location where they don't want traffic going outside their defined network for a variety of reasons and it would have to be easy to modify or it would break for them. Rogan Hamby Data and Project Analyst

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Reorganized documentation: proof of concept

Hi, I think it has some challenges also. One of these is that some Evergreen users customize their installs. You can always say "oh, then they have to modify their links to go to different docs too." I'd want to hear from community members that might affect. Yes, that was my first

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Reorganized documentation: proof of concept

Hi Donald, When you say "constantly updated" I'm imagining that you're not thinking of something bundled with the distribution but links that go back to the community site? At the least this would have to be bound by version I think and the granularity of the version it links to would have to be

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Reorganized documentation: proof of concept

Jillianne and Jane, I like what you have done a *lot*. It makes so much sense and is less intimidating for us cataloger types who shy away from system administration. I wonder ... could the concept be taken a step further to include hot links, in Webby, to a constantly updated HTML version of

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Reorganized documentation: proof of concept

I like the way things are broken down by user groups. It makes it much easier to locate the needed documentation. Just through my quick review I found a feature I was not aware of and will try using. So I think it is great. Meme On Wed, Aug 23, 2017 at 4:37 PM, Mary Llewellyn

Re: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Reorganized documentation: proof of concept

I think it looks great, much less overwhelming to have the module documentation split up. Mary On Thu, Aug 17, 2017 at 3:28 PM, Ruth Frasur wrote: > This looks great. I appreciate the reasoning behind this schema and think > it's very usable. > > On Tue, Aug

Dear Evergreeners, Jillianne Presley and I have put together a proof of concept for a new direction for Evergreen's documentation, and DIG would really appreciate your input. Rather than the current documentation, which tries to be many things to many people, the reorganized documentation is
