@kenshino @milana_cap @leogermani @kafleg @aion @softservenet @Pieter @audrasjb @estelaris @bph @joyously

Development

Development of HelpHub was blocked for 2 things and discussed:

@estelaris commented for HelpHub design:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ZnhtiLxqjXviFlnWsDE5L8YRiBXtkmanvM8doIc1lrg/edit#gid=0
This is the document to gather all the requirements docs team has.

Design team review

They reviewed two things:

  1. mobile view
    https://github.com/WordPress/HelpHub/issues/235
    They agreed that it needs to change, so they are working on a template to be used by the entire WP.org ecosystem.
  2. anchor symbol
    They are thinking about using a similar treatment to GitHub. It will be global as well.

#needs-desing keywords for tickets

@estelaris added needs-design keyword to 3 trac tickets:

@estelaris will look into those 3 this week and will add screenshots

Improbements for archives

Docs Team did make some decisions on previous meeting that should improve usability of them

  1. Team agreed to use custom excerpts for each article – this is extra work for content but we can all help perhaps we can add another column to @atachibana ‘s document.
  2. Order of posts will be set manually because we want to make it contextual/complexity/step-by-step order
    This can’t really be automated and applicable to every category so we’ll use the order functionality in Post Attributes and @felipeelia already created patch for it.

Dev flow setup

@kenshino will catch up with @netweb.
@leogermani will test the documentation to get the dev environment up.

HelpHub rosetta release

Now, there are two releases: Serbian and Japanese.
Serbian team had HelpHub enabled on wrong site. It was disabled then and enabled on /support/ so they are ready to go.
Japanese team shared guide for getting started with this.

French, Brazil, Russia and some other countries are in the line for that activation.

HelpHub contents migration

@leogermani migrated content and hooks. Top 3 actions and filters (total of 6) were done and @millana_cap reviewed.

Open floor

@milana_cap suggested to have different people leading the meetings, Like rotating but more volunteering. We can call it a facilitator rather than “leading”. The agenda already mentions people sho will “lead” each topic.

@leogermani volunteered to lead the next HelpHub meeting, and @softservenet follows.
