Hey when making links to media makes sure it is http:// as have seen in a couple of places ftp:// it will work for you seeing that you have an ftp account. Also the paths for ftp are sligthly different as you may see ftp://shihadwiki.com/bootleg/YYYYMMDD/abc.flac but for http:// it is http://shihadwiki.com/media/bootleg/YYYYMMDD/abc.flac . This is because your ftp account links to the media folder not the root directory so when you are making http links you just need to media/ into the link

== Main Page ==
 +
 
 +
Hi I have tided up the front page so that the borders end at the end of the section not all of them at the bottom of the page. Just needed <code>|}</code> on a blank line at the end of the section. [[User:Karit|karit]] 23:26, 12 March 2008 (MST)

== Wrong page names ==
 +
 
 +
Hey when there is a page with the wrong name drop me a line and I can do a move which is cleaner than making a new page as it also moves all the old edits etc. [[User:Karit|karit]] 22:40, 19 March 2008 (MST)

== Discography Info ==

Came across the following which will be helpful in population of the discography information with release dates, version, catalogue numbers, etc:
 +
* [http://www.rockdetector.com/discography,7984.sm?type=Album]
 +
* [http://www.rockdetector.com/discography,37596.sm]

 +
* [http://www.rockdetector.com/discography,37596.sm?type=Promo]
 +
 
 +
I have been through and put dates down most of the [[Discography]] page.

== Links ==
 +
 
 +
Good work on getting us linked around the place. Thinking the best links are from music related sites, as Google will treat it better when it is coming from a page that says Shihad.

 +
 
 +
Looking at some stats from Google Analytics benching marking feature which compares our stats to other similar sized music related sites. Well we need to work on bounce rate as we have a lot people who view one page then leave. So any ideas to improve visitor retention it would be good.
 +
 
 +
Also do you have a high res copy of the Shihad shield logo?
 +
 
 +

With logo send me what you have. I am planning on making it into a vector image so I can make it bigger without the scaling issues. Just the biggest image I currently have it the favicon on the site.
 +

 +
== Main Page ==
 +
 
 +
Sorry I can't delete history through the front end. Looking at the URL if you log off it should clear it. As currently looking at the page at the end of the link I just the catalogue page.
 +
 
 +
== Song Template ==
 +
 
 +
Just edited the template the field is called ChartPosition
 +
 
 +
== Song template chart position ==
 +
 
 +
Think I have fixed it have a look at [[One Will Hear The Other (song)]]
 +
 
 +
Though might have to go through all the songs and do "Chart Position =" (sans quotes) not sure how to make it blank by default
 +
 
 +
== Song Chart Position ==
 +
 
 +
Just thinking why do songs need a chart position? As it is the single with the chart position not the song. I am just about to remove it from the song template and leave it just in the discography template which singles, albums, etc use.
 +
 
 +
== Re: wiki work ==
 +
 
 +
This is the first time I've ever used a Wiki, but I manage to pick things up pretty quickly.
 +
The whole copy and pasting codes is what I've been doing, but I know there are a few things that change in every page I do depending where I get the code from so at times it's all over the place.
 +
I just stick up what I can, I have no problem with other people fixing things up or changing them completely, specially where lyrics are concerned because some of the ones without a booklet are quite tricky to work out.
 +
I shall follow the template you've specified from now on.
 +
[[User:devolveme|Sara (devolveme)]]
  
Thanks for sorting out the dvd page for me. G&E is just my little branding, I just do it to identify my recordings instead of putting my name on it.

== News on Main Page ==
  
G
+
I'm thinking we should try and keep the news on the front page to say the last month just to keep fresh and to stop it growing out of control. The old stuff can continue to live on [[Archive:News]] so can always go back to see the old news and what not. What do you think about that idea? Should I have a look at it tomorrow night or something?

As to uploading videos music videos I guess are ok. TV Shows I would say no to as they are owned by the TV show. Stuff off CDs and DVDs I would say no to as they have been released as a commercial product. Stuff from mobile phones should be alright. [[User:Karit|karit]] 21:30, 11 June 2008 (MST)

Hey when making links to media makes sure it is http:// as have seen in a couple of places ftp:// it will work for you seeing that you have an ftp account. Also the paths for ftp are sligthly different as you may see ftp://shihadwiki.com/bootleg/YYYYMMDD/abc.flac but for http:// it is http://shihadwiki.com/media/bootleg/YYYYMMDD/abc.flac . This is because your ftp account links to the media folder not the root directory so when you are making http links you just need to media/ into the link
