Hey
Filling a bug for the build of a fringe events page on the word press site.

The requested info from fringe events would be
name of event
date & time
logo
150 word blurb about the event.

Example of fringe event page we want to emulate is below

Thanks
Sarah

Does this page link to a form where people can enter the info? Or is it a page that we curate, which lists the fringe events with the above info?

Hi

Yes, it would be great to have a buttom links to a google form ( this google form is very basic no banner needed)
The page itself on the website just lists the fringe events.

A few more questions, Sarah:

1) Does this Fringe page link from the Nav bar?
2) Can you attach the example you referenced above?
3) Where is the content for this page. Will you fill it in, or do you need us to?
4) Is there a deadline? When do you need this page up?
5) Is there copy to explain what Fringe events are?

hey Erika,
Sorry I was away for a week.
In response to your questions
1) It would be a nice to link the page from the nav bar if there was space there
2)I have added the URL to the page above
3)Content from this page will come from the google form which other people will fill out
4) I dont have a deadline in mind at the mo but I guess if it was up two weeks before the festival so people would have time to fill it out and plan nights out
5)No copy as such yet but will work on this

I am going to start an email thread between beatrice from OK festival and us so she can explain how OK fest made the page and her recommendations for set up. I will include you too :)

Thanks
Sarah

A few more details about this following today's MozFest meeting:

- This page will have some intro text, a form to submit Fringe Events, and a list of submitted Fringe Events
- The list of submitted Fringe Events will be manually entered (by Marc, I believe)

Aiming to have this completed by Oct 9.

I'm wondering what the URL will be for this page.  /fringe-events?

Comment 7

[Erika Drushka]

How about just /fringe

Live on http://2014.mozillafestival.org/fringe/

You can add content of the submitted events via Dashboard -> Pages -> Fringe Events.  Everything entered on that editor will be displayed within a box called "List of Fringe Events" located at the bottom of the Fringe page.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Oh Sarah, you might want to clear my testing records(there's a lot) on the spreadsheet :)
