Lesson Updates
- @juliekuehl is ready to move Theme Accessibility to copyediting
- @melindahelt and @bethsoderberg have identified the updates needed for the child themes lesson
Copyediting
- @skarjune has written an excellent post about the style guide: https://make.wordpress.org/training/2017/01/17/lesson-plan-style-guide-and-glossary/
– Brief discussion about the MailChimp style guide and how it could be good inspiration.
- @donkiely finished Custom Post Types and Content Editor Overview
– The html and php shortcodes aren’t working; @chanthaboune will ask if it’s the O2 upgrade that did it
– If they are broken, let’s use “pre”
Testing
- @melindahelt is looking at the Theme Accessibility lesson for testing in February.
Goals Discussion
It boils down to a few distinct buckets of things. In no particular order:
1. Content flow solution
2. More solid copyediting process (ties into 1)
3. Proper handbook (ties to 1 + 2)
4. Outreach to local groups
5. An accessibility workshop
Let’s make a plan!
- @bethsoderberg – In my mind 3 needs to come before 4 and pieces of 2 are going to need to come after 1. 5 requires a lot of research to start, so the actual production should happen later and research sooner.
- @chanthaboune – I think there’s an extent to which we can do… setup for 1, creation of 3… and research for 5 in the first quarter or two of the year.
- @melindahelt 5 is independent of the others. #4 – depends on type of outreach. If we (team members) are looking for local groups for us to present/test plans, then that can really happen almost any time. But if the goal of #4 would be sending people to our site, then yes, content needs to be better organized and ready
Actions
- comment on that post with more thoughts on timing, then next week we can talk first steps for each piece?
