[FM Discuss] Fw: New Volunteer

[mick at flossmanuals.net]

Hi there Martin and Sidney,


You export an epub from write.fm and then import it from  My Dashboard
in  http://en.flossmanuals.net 

Click the CREATE BOOK button, give it a title and then


I had to lock down the settings so only admins can create books on the
site as we are no longer in the golden age of no-spam wikis
unfortunately. ;)

But you'll be able to do it Martin.


There's a still a bit of an annoying bug which makes working with
imported books tricky as existing images disappear. 

But there is a work around here.

This bug has slowed me down a bit, but it can we worked around. So I
agree let's port that manual and get it updated for the new system.

I guess also we should think about how a FLOSS Manuals manual would
complement this one on Booktype 2.X

Thanks
