A list of known problems in the CS Club website:
Known Bugs
- Gallery: The front page thumbnail images are all broken.
- I think this might be fixable if we can get ImageMagick installed. Waiting on Roger to install the base jpg/png/zlib libraries it depends on, or I might get impatient and compile them myself.
- Apache: The log files are getting spewed into randomly named files
in the home directory.- Waiting on Roger to try modifying our httpd configuration again so that the files will
go to ~/log andbe rotated monthly. The last time we tried this, my suggestions broke the server somehow. - Update: Logs are now going to ~/log but they are still randomly named.
- Waiting on Roger to try modifying our httpd configuration again so that the files will
- PHP was compiled without GD. This gives us an annoying error on the system status report. It also prevents us from running the Taxonomy Image module or an image-based capcha.
- Waiting on Roger to look into upgrading PHP from whatever source we originally got it from.
- Revision log messages are lost on preview.
- The textarea name is "edit-log".
- Event CSS: The weekend TDs in the calendar lose borders in Firefox.
- Opera and IE are fine. This also seems to depend on my custom modifications to the CSS. -dmt
- position: relative alone seems to be enough to cause this problem.
- DHTML Menus: Sometimes, when opening a new page, a menu is closed but its parent's arrow is in the "open" position. Clicking the parent twice will open the window.
- A new version of the module has been installed since this was last seen.
- .htaccess 404s: The Drupal 404 page is displayed for 404s on users' personal home pages.
- This is caused by the sitewide Apache configuration.
Pending Feature Requests
- Taxonomy: There is no easy way for users to view a taxonomy. Users should be able to see a list of terms with a count, a tagadelic tag cloud, whatever else sounds interesting.
- Projects: Add some interesting projects to the page.
- Iconizer: It doesn't have an icon pack so the administration icons are all just question marks. The module is turned off until this is fixed.
- Event: Make clicked calendar links go to the event node when there is a single event in the day, not the one day in the calendar.
- Send a daily or weekly digest of new nodes and comments to users who request it.
- Pages: On pages only, show submission time and last edit time.
- Allow guests to use users' Contact forms (with a captcha)
- http://drupal.org/node/58224 comment #130 onward
- Put SSL on the server so users can log in securely.
- Waiting on Roger to look into it.
- Allow CS Club members to promote an item to the front page.
- This is not going to be fixed any time soon. Drupal requires users have the "administer nodes" permission to promote a story, but that permission gives someone full administrator access to just about everything. Giving that to everyone is not a good idea.
Contact a webmaster if you experience a problem that is not in this list.
