Knowledge Base
- Chris has started implementing the SHOWFOR plugin on the rest of the KB, but there are some major/minor bugs. [11][12]
- SHOWFOR spans are used, which means the “OS:All” option can’t be used
- Could use a document describing to content writers how SHOWFOR works and should be used.
- 6 new requests, 0 new articles
- No new contributors
- We don’t have the edit this page for users not logged. This might be a reason.
- Should definitely make “edit this page” and “translate this page” show for users not logged in [13]
- We had our first case of vandalism.
- Someone tried to edit the Profiles article, wiping content and include a link
- Staging system prevented it from ever going live — a testament of the awesomeness of the review system!
- Highlighted a lack of ability to ban by IP [14]
- Still a lot of comment traffic. Text and bolding still needs work [15]
- The bold text on “ask a support question” right above the big text area might fool people
Forums

Live Chat
- Not much done last week
- Stats up 267 chats requested, 51 unanswered, 3 people left on their own, 48 never made it to an agent
- Updated the server this week
