New theme for mozilla.ro implemented by Eugen Strătilă
298.32 KB, application/octet-stream
Details 
Implement new theme for mozilla.ro website http://allizom.ceata.org/
(http://hg.mozilla.org/webtools/mcs/summary)
In my opinion http://www.mozilla-hispano.org/ is very pretty.
The attached archive contains the latest version of the WordPress theme implemented by Jenia (Eugen Strătilă) for Mozilla Romanian Community website: mozilla.ro.

Mozilla members, please review the theme here and write your feedback so Jenia finish the development and release the theme.
Clarifying question: is this bug for implementing the theme, or for review by community members? It seems like the comments ask for review, but the title describes it as the implementation. We can adjust the title of the bug if we are looking for a review and approval process here.
This bug is for review. Waiting recommendations of the community romanian members. Also, expected feedback from Mozilla officials dealing with the web creations.
Summary: New WP theme for www.mozilla.ro → Review, addition, ideas, suggestions for new WP theme for www.mozilla.ro
Ok, so what I propose is:

1. let's first agree with the community members if the design looks right, and then
2. flag to the contributor engagement team to review and see if it fits the guidelines for community websites.

Do we have a deadline for the first phase (community review)?
Salut, 

 Sunt de-acord cu prima propunere a Irinei. Fiind vorba de un sait al unei comunități locale/regionale, cred că primul lucru este să vedem de ce este nevoie. Ce așteptări au contribuitorii, suporterii și dezvoltatorii web din RO de la un sait local. 
 Probabil un blogpost public (în română, pe sait-ul mozilla.ro) ar fi o idee (promovând și acceptând comentarii de la cei interesați în Proiectul și Tehnologiile Mozilla sau Web în general). 

 Legat de prima versiune a sait-ului, o să trimit opiniile mele ca și comentarii la blog post. 

 Până atunci, nu văd necesitatea acestui bug (mai ales în Engleză).

Irina comment clarified we are looking for reviews from the communities members.

A.K.A.

"What do you think we should change/add to the theme at: http://mozilla.ro/new?"

We have this bug and the mailing list, I guess community members should feel comfortable reviewing using either of them since they use them often to contribute to the Mozilla project.

Which version do you refer to? Why are your comments depending on a blog post and what are you trying to achive by blog (which one?) posting?

Bugzilla.mozilla.org is English-only. You may send your review of the theme developed by Eugen and installed by Cosmin on the mailing list, if you consider the language is an issue here. Thanks!
Some first comments:

* I would take away the lines separating the main column from the side column and just use spacing as a way to separate the content/columns. I think this is more elegant and less cluttering. 

* The header buttons are not like the ones on mozilla.com, which are alligned left to the bars separating them. Can we change that, too? 

* For the author name, can we change it to be a full name rather than a user name? I would also make it clickable, either going to a profile page or to more articles by that person.

* Can we combine "Mozilla.ro" and "Comunitatea romaneasca Mozilla" into one title element? I think they are communicating more or less the same thing. We can leave more space between the header and the first blog post and have a big, clear title on what this website is about.

* Can we try to use a bit less blue on the page? Since the background is blue, can we make the links a different colour?

Milos, what do you think?
Sorry, I don't really understand the question, not Romanian, for that matter :)

Milos, what do you think about the new theme you want to implement in mozilla.ro website? You comments and suggestions to do? I know you're in Mozilla creative team for websites.

Though I hoped for clarification, I'm even more confused now :)
 
> Milos, what do you think about the new theme 
It looks nice, but I didn't really go thoroughly through UI nor code.

> you want to implement in mozilla.ro website? 

Huh? Why would I want to implement something into mozilla.ro? This is the very first time I hear about it.

> You comments and suggestions to do?

As I said before, I didn't really had any time to look into it.

> I know you're in Mozilla creative team for websites.

Hmm, not sure where did you get this from, but I'm not in the Creative nor WebDev in Mozilla. I'm in Localization-Drivers team, but I occasionally do some webdev(as a hobby).
@Milos, new theme for our community website is here: http://www.mozilla.ro/new/

Sorry for trouble. I announced that you and Jesper take care of the Creative team.

More infos here: https://wiki.mozilla.org/EU_MozCamp_2011/Schedule/Engagement_and_Regionalization_Track/Building_Community_Through_Local_Sites

and here: https://wiki.mozilla.org/EU_MozCamp_2011/Schedule/Engagement_and_Regionalization_Track/Firefox_Brand_Toolkit

So if you want, any suggestion from you is welcome.

Also, @Eugen, any news about next steps?
Hi, i will make some changes soon.

But i'm not sure if i can make some of updates alone, i'm not familiar with jQuery and a slider is a problem for me.

And also, as i'm a beginner i have some questions on integrating with wordpress, if there is some one that could help me with some of them, it will be great.

Sorry, but I don't actually understand this part: you announced us, how, where, why?

Eugen, no worries, we can use a free (as in freedom) slider out there in the wild. Please consider the slider has low priority and meanwhile we'll find a solution. You don't need to implement it.

Please feel free to post here your technical questions. If we don't know the problems you face, we can't help you, even if we know. :-)

LOL. I guess Raul meant to write "I was announced" a.k.a he was informed or at least understood so, that you guys are part of the Creative Team.

The reason we talked about you in the first place is because you guys are working on a theme for popular CMS' Irina told us there might be a chance to be recommended to all communities.

Anyway, even if you are a hobbiest (who isn't?), it would be helpful and much appreciated (in beer pints :-P) if you hang around in the CC list of this bug and occasionally give some advice.

Hi. I don't know what the Creative Team is. I am a community member like yourself. I have the Danish community website at http://mozilladanmark.dk/ . We use the MCS (Mozilla Community Sites, http://hg.mozilla.org/webtools/mcs/ ) theme at our site, and therefor I have made quite a lot of changes to the MCS theme. I would love to have other community sites in other countries use the same theme and contribute improvements to it. That way we could share the work of maintaining the theme.
Have problem with search on site, if i add search, comments are not working.
Help? :)
Eugene, any news about new version of this theme?
Deposit theme is here: https://github.com/mozilla-ro/wp-theme
