Issue (long term)

We need an smtp server for un-spider, which allows redirect
- currently direct mails by php/spider website are block by firewall
  - currently running via Werners account
  - new account needs to be created for un-spider mail server, allowing mailing via website
  - ask Mateja to set this up
Work on search function...
- need to work on the concept; Search API module is installed but not configured and used yet; Default Search module can be deinstalled as soon Search API is configured

New entries (05.05.2023)

Translation link behaviour...
- In a view, when "Link to content" is used, this does not work for an image in a translated page
- similar to https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/2802311
- example: https://www.un-spider.org/es/aplicacion-espacial/mecanismos-de-emergencia
- view: https://www.un-spider.org/admin/structure/views/view/guides_listing/edit/block_1
- the link on the spanish page still redirects to english page
  - Solution attempt: create link url with "Rewrite results", using translation language and node id
  - however, using this would add a "en" to the english urls, which does not work
  - ... tried to solve this with Views Conditional (if translation language = en; do no use language code in url), however the "en" was still kept in the link urls...
- ... currently no solution (Werner to check)

Open from previous meetings

How to remove navigation for certain recommended practices without breaking everything...
- https://www.un-spider.org/advisory-support/recommended-practices/recommended-practice-flood-hazard-mapping
- via "Outline" - "Remove from Book Outline"
- Werner needs to recover first, did not work...
  - will inform afterwards how to continue with the other rec.practice w/ navigation
Juan Carlos mails requests with security
- requirements by OICT
- being dealt with by Werner w/ Mateja
  - waiting for Mateja...
Date Format
- Due to the change of date formats, some tables need to be redesigned (some columns need to be wider)
  - task for Werner: readjust tables as defined by Martin (see mail)
Font color (CSS Theme)
- in some cases, content appears in black, instead of darkgrey
- e.g. Field "Test Site" https://www.un-spider.org/advisory-support/recommended-practices/recommended-practice-agriculture-drought-monitoring
- needs to be changed in CSS
- task for Martin: collect pages where this occurs and send it to Werner...
  - if others are found, inform Werner again
- task for Werner: check and adjust for the cases that have been sent already (see mail)
Concept for better categorization of Data Sources
- https://un-spider.org/links-and-resources/data-sources
- e.g. distinction between: Raw Data Sources, Services, Applications
- Task for Martin: define categorization values
  - create new taxonomy, enter values + translations, include as new field to "Data Sources"
    - "Create referenced entities if they don't already exist" unchecked!!
Insert a disclaimer in the homepage (landing page). We used to have one in the previous versions, but I did not see it two weeks ago when we were discussing this issue. The disclaimer helps us raise awareness regarding the fact that the Portal is only for information purposes, and that any maps do not represent the official view of the UN on boundaries or territories. If you cannot find it, I will also look for the text.
- never existed, however, can be implemented
- Task for Martin: provide text and where it needs to go...
Disclaimer for recommended practices has been implemented...
- Task for Martin: create and insert block for practical uses
- https://un-spider.org/advisory-support/practical-uses/Sendai-Framework-Ad-hoc-indicator-C-2Fo-Intro
Free tagging Taxonomy
- Taxonomy values in general need to be checked...
  - e.g. https://un-spider.org/category/tagging/regional-support-office is empty....
    - bad example... there is no taxonomy regional support office
  - Task for Martin: check again what is happening here...
  - Task for Werner: check what is wrong with the taxonomy value pages...
    - URL alias directing to non existing terms
    - taxonomy term does not have content - empty page - "no result behaviour" needs to be adjusted
      - did not work first try, Werner will check

Backlog (not working on this at the moment, but for future task planning purposes)

Question: If we wanted to implement a calendar like: https://www.space4water.org/events how would this work?
- need a module to be installed and a view needs to be created + css to polish...
"Referenced RSO" translations..
- we know the cause of it now and need to monitor it, if translations exist for RSOs, these are also listed in the Referenced RSOs, as soon as the translations are finalised, we can consider to include a filter, to only have the RSOs in the right translation/language, that is currently being used
- status: Spanish RSOs finished
  - waiting for having French translations of RSOs...
Concept for uploading and presenting Juan Carlos publication...
- as discussed, think about ways how to use the book concept in drupal for this....
- Juan Carlos suggested to use a format similar to the Data Application of the Month
  - https://www.un-spider.org/links-and-resources/daotm
  - Each chapter having a specific panel with image and link
  - ... should be rather easy to set up? to be discussed

Tasks with no solutions at the moment (here for documentation purposes)

New role needed
- Intern w/ permissions to create translations
  - ... working with ICanLocalize Translator role, configured by Werner
  - role was defined and set with needed permissions, but still problems with creating translations... Translator role did not work as planned... Nuria currently using site admin role
  - not solved... translators will need to be site admins for now

Solved since last meeting

Bulletpoints and image behaviour; News articles
- ~~see example... https://www.un-spider.org/news-and-events/news/bulletpoint-and-image-tester~~
- ~~probably CSS related...~~
  - Werner will check, but probably no solution for it now..
  - ~~solved with image margin...~~

To be scheduled (depending on Werner's and Martin's availability):
