[FM Discuss] Update on FM write migration and request to help test manuals

Hi Mick:

Just a note that the new front page Shotcut links give a 404 error.

The new Audacity seems to be up -- there never was a problem viewing the new version on the site, and there isn't now.  I'm not sure what we decided to do, if anything, about the issues we'd uncovered with exporting.  Can you confirm that those issues are at least limited to Audacity and not other manuals?

Best,

Matt

Hi there,

I just wanted to give a quick update on this process. We've done most of the work on this page

https://public.etherpad-mozilla.org/p/Fm-top20

Still some checking to do. But I've made the changes live on the https://www.flossmanuals.net front page. So that most of those top 20 now point to the new server.

A quick next steps list is

* make URLs like https://en.flossmanuals.net/scribus/ point to --> https://en.flossmanuals.net/scribus/_full/
* create a public place to log errors for new server and migration process - the link at the bottom of the page is not public
* remove mentions of write.flossmanuals.net from the https://www.flossmanuals.net front page, update them to point to https://archive.flossmanuals.net
* check the what content is on write.flossmanuals.net, that isn't on archive.flossmanuals.net and make backups of them available somewhere on archive.flossmanuals.net (for example the finnish flossmanuals (we should create an archive splash page for that also))
* complete and double check migration of all manuals listed at https://public.etherpad-mozilla.org/p/Fm-top20

Thanks
Mick

Hi there,

I've been doing some migration today of some manuals and I've put the new links in here.

https://public.etherpad-mozilla.org/p/Fm-top20

I've also recorded a short video to celebrate and say HNY! (don't get too excited), and ask for help.

As I say please email me if you are up for testing the migration.

In terms of how to help any of the following are useful

* check contents and images have transferred ok
* make a very minor edit and see if it "takes"
* export a epub and check it
* export a screen pdf and check it
* log any errors here - https://gitlab.com/jazzynico/fmfr-server/issues/

If you are up for it I'll make sure you get the relevant permissions on the sites

Thanks
Mick
