Description

[Brett Gaylor [:brett]]

Hello! We're reworking the mozillapopcorn.org site to be the destination for our popcorn maker app.  As such, this site won't be the right home for a blog.

We'd like to do future blogging from blog.mozilla.org/popcorn, as well as migrating our previous wordpress posts over.

We're hoping for a site similar to http://blog.mozilla.org/privacy/

This will block our new site, which is set to go live June 15th.

Thank you!
Brett

By similar, do you mean the same Wordpress theme?

1. This will require an 'ack' from PR, whom I've had cc'd

2. Please provide a list of users (full name or LDAP account name) who should have access, and what role they should have, e.g. Admin, Editor, etc

3. Migrating the exist posts may not be possible without you reposting them, I'll discuss this with the webops team and let you know

Meant more the architecture, though now that you mention, perhaps we should go with sandstone theme similar to here:
http://blog.mozilla.org/security/

Thanks, Chris!

For some reason I'm unable to log in with my ldap credentials, though?

Yes, login + posting works!

Is it possible to turn on the importer to migrate posts from our previous wordpress install?

Thanks again!
