ITNow
Feel free to edit !
It is very different if we focus on «a website» or «a collection of services».
Remember : http://pirateparty.be/crew-message-general-assembly-28th-march-2015
Take IT easy.
Focus on what is «working now». The language (fr/nl/de) efforts will be naturally distributed through the different «channels». More «pirates/diy» way.
- Facebook page(s)
- Twitter account(s)
- Mailchimp or other Newsletter tool(s) (maybe less necessary if the other channels are «alive»)
- Current Wiki
- And off course a website we can consider as a vitrine with some news and links to the different «channels».
Do IT yourself.
Focus on what we would like to do «in a long term». The language (fr/nl/de) efforts must be kept in mind along all those process. More «centralized» way.
- Define a Single Sign On strategy (Maybe OAUTH and LDAP)
- Define the services we want to provide.
- Set up the host(s)
- Set up the service(s)
- Think about disaster recovery plan(s)
Same goals.
- Tell the world that we are alive.
- Invite the world to share our ideas and and help us to reach goals.
- Invite the world to vote for some enventual candidates on election days (if we do have candidates).
- Empower the world using different channels.
- Provide some «Belgian centralized views» of our activities.
- Allow the world to give us money or join Crews and Squads.
A new CMS for a New website ?
If we are going to work on a refresh/replacement of the current website.
Wordpress
- Must Have Plugins : http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/20-must-have-wordpress-plugins-for-2015-expert-pick/
- WP To Drupal : https://www.drupal.org/node/43178
Drupal
I just have had installed Drupal and it seems far less intuitive than Wordpress. Powerfull maybe ... but harder to handle.
- Must Have Addons : http://www.vmdoh.com/blog/12-drupal-7-modules-you-absolutely-must-have
- Drupal To WP : https://wordpress.org/plugins/cms2cms-automated-drupal-to-wp-migration/
- Upgrade from 7 to 8 : https://www.drupal.org/node/2257723
What maybe the «cost» to keep what is running now on the current Drupal 7? Like how much time do we need to improve instead of replace?
Other suggestions
- Joomla
- Spip
- Wordpress with Themosis
