Re: [SFD-discuss] Map correction 2021 - Belem, Brazil

by Frederic Muller - DFF

Hi! I looked at the Belem page here: https://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/2021/Brazil/Belem/ The team is mentioned 2 times in that page. I edited the 1st occurence under "Realização" to make the name of the team link to the city (the same page I am looking at then?). But basically you can have 3 types of linkage: - /sub-page -> will be page right under the current page and shows as it is - https://link -> direct link to an external website which shows as it is - [[link|nice text]] -> will link the 'nice text' to that link which can be either interwiki or external site. I hope I answered clearly, but I couldn't see any 'mouse-over' on my browser.. Let me know if you need more specific details. Thank you.

Map correction 2021 - Belem, Brazil

by ParaLivre

I noticed that when I click on the city of Belem, Brazil, when hovering the mouse cursor over "ParaLivre", which is the name of the team that is organizing the SFD, it is pointing to the team's link at https://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/2021/Brazil/Belem/ParaLivre Ideally, the address would be directed to the link to the city of Belem on the Wiki at https://wiki.softwarefreedomday.org/2021/Brazil/Belem/ -- José Roberto da Costa Ferreira contato at paralivre dot org

Hi! We would like to thank Paulo Santana who did the whole translation of the Portuguese home page of the wiki (while we were sleeping...). Thank you very much. Fred

Could be only an admin feature. Funnily I also noticed the problem didn't happen during the previous year. The code hasn't changed for... too long (#shame?#). Could be a library update. I'm having a similar issue with urllib3 after upgrading Fedora right now. Well as you might have understood we need to upgrade the registration script because it is written in Python 2, too limited as changes can't be done by the registrant and too limited as it misses some of the now important information such as language, time, timezone, etc... Hey we started with a script in Perl that didn't handle UTF-8 in our early days... I initially patched it and then Perl was.. way over my head to continue. So I rewrote it in Python 2, at the time. But I digress Well thank you and let us know if you have any other issue. Happy preparation! Fred

I think I tried %20 and didn't even think to try a space in the URL because when I program I don't use spaces in that way. I would have gotten rid of the Delray Beach page with the space in it, but wasn't sure how to delete a wiki page. Going to just use the "Delray" page instead. If you can let me know a way to delete the first city page or if you can delete it, that would be great. I think the map is okay. I just started with Delray instead of Delray Beach and went on from there. Thanks.

Thank you for that. I didn't know Moinmoin would actually detect your browser language settings and display the page in your language.

Yes, the coordinates are stored in a text file which sometimes need to be manually refreshed (unless you wait long enough - which is not that long, but not immediate). I'll look into our web server configuration and see if I can fix that problem. I looked today and your marker is there for me.

Yep, I also noticed later looking more at your pages that... I wasn't sure what was happening when because I don't speak Portuguese. Thank you very much.

That's weird as the 1st registration made is a city with a space in the name. I just simply copied the last part of the wiki URL and it worked. From former years I think %20 used to work as well (likewise for non-ascii name pages in Chinese or Korean or...). Glad it worked. I see you made 2 city pages, do you want us to modify something is the map link to your wiki page? Just let us know. Thank you. Fred

Was finally able to register successfully. Had trouble using the registration page when there are spaces in names and the URL has to handle the spaces.
