482785 - admin panel for community spotlight

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

implement an admin panel for the community spotlight.  The current idea is to use a WYSIWYG plus a template.  Also, need a way to upload the user's headshot image.

sorry for the spam, but I need to unassign myself from these so they're open to other people to work on them

@Alex how do you currently change the community spotlight and where are the headshots stored?

The spotlight template file is updated manually, when I edit it, check it in to SVN, and then have IT push it live.

The template file is at,
http://svn.mozilla.org/projects/spreadfirefox.com/trunk/sites/all/themes/sfxBB/community-spotlight-block.tpl.php

The code that defines that block is in sfx.module,
http://svn.mozilla.org/projects/spreadfirefox.com/trunk/sites/all/modules/sfx/sfx.module

The headshots are kept with all the other CSS images, e.g.
http://svn.mozilla.org/projects/spreadfirefox.com/trunk/sites/all/themes/sfxBB/img/vineel_reddy.jpg

Ideally, this would work by just entering the spotlight user's ID number, and the block info would be pulled from their profile info.

Each spotlight has an associated node, that is linked by the "Meet this member" link.  This will need to be set somehow too.

I would be very interested to work on this post migration to Drupal 6
