ClimateX 1.5 Staging
| Page | Zone / Detail | Priority L,M,H N=New | ClimateX Team Comment | Penzias Notes | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Global Style | M | Insert MIT favicon for all pages (currently it uses a Drupal favicon), so browser tabs read: "<MIT logo> ClimateX - <Page Name> | Done | ||
| H | Add global link behavior as follows: Link is different color to signify its a link (ie green). On hover, link becomes underlined. | Done | |||
| 0.1 Global Navigation | Logo | H | ClimateX should not have space in logo: "ClimateX" not "Climate X" | Done | |
| H | MIT logo should not be active link to MIT home page. | Did Bara give the OK for this? I just sent her a note, will let you know ASAP - | |||
| Primary Left Nav | M | For hover over state in navigation menu items – make navigation label bold. | Done | ||
| Right Utility Nav | M | Alt text for Alerts should read: "View activity you're following" – with "No recent activity" added to end if relevant | Changed message, but we can't detect activity count in this round | ||
| M | Alt text for Messages should read: "View your messages" – with "No new messages" added to end if relevant | Done | |||
| Activity Alerts Zone | N | Not seeing alerts in this zone when people I am following create posts or make comments. | We don't have alert counts in this round. Can we notify alerts, even without a count? | ||
| Message Alerts Zone | |||||
| My Profile | M | Clicking on username (without navigating to drop down options) should take user to her/his profile | Currently it does this in desktop. But it cannot do this in mobile unless we remove the dropdown feature for mobile all together. Yup - OK | ||
Banner CTA (only seen if unauthenticated) | H | We wanted to see a persistent banner CTA just below the navigation encouraging people to sign up as they navigate through the site...See below... | In progress | ||
| Differentiation of child pages | N | Add breadcrumbs to child video and post pages | Breadcrumbs were not part of the original design. | ||
| 0.2 Footer | M | Add link "Feedback" that goes to "climatex_feedback@mit.edu" | Where in the footer would you like this to go? | ||
| 0.3 Messages Table Page | H | Deactivate link for user name in the table of messages – you should only be able to click on the message. | In progress | ||
| H | I think the "Write New Message" button is problematic – because you need to select a member to send it to – which creates a complex loop – how does the user select a member? I think it should be removed. | We can remove this. It just means that people need to navigate to a users page in order to write them a new message. Agreed – the alternative is that they somehow remember/know the users name/username – which seems unlikely – please remove. | |||
| H | The action bar spreads all the way across the page. Should be not so wide... | In progress | |||
| 0.4 Activity Table | N | This should show entries where:
| We need to see what's possible in this round. Some of these are easier than others. Some involve items that won't be built until next round. | ||
| 1.0 Home Page | Hero Image Zone | H | Lighten hero image overlay (~.3 opacity? currently at .5) | Done | |
| Topic Buttons | M | Mobile: topics should extend full screen for small screen sizes | Everything should really respect the padding gutter in this section. | ||
| M | Topic titles should not wrap mid-word (preferably not at all) - assign width properties based upon screen width | I don't see individual words wrapping, but I see breaks to new lines when the width gets small. We can modify here. Most likely this will be done by increasing space vs proportional font size. Proportional font size would not be a good choice here given the size of the text starts out small. | |||
| H | For all columns - reduce padding for smaller screen widths | In progress | |||
| Twitter Feed | H | For all columns - reduce padding for smaller screen widths | In progress | ||
| Active Members | M | Between 770px - 830px: 3rd column (members/site feed) wraps below topics column | Yes, this is by design. At this point, there is no longer enough real estate to span 3 columns (even if we reduce padding) and there is too much real estate to have them all span 100% like they do in mobile. | ||

| 1.1Log inpage | Form | N | On login, users should navigate to the page they were last on if possible. Currently we send them to My Profile page, no matter what. | Will look into it. Should discuss. | |
| 1.2 Members-only Intercept (login / signup) | Form |
| |||
| 1.3 Sign Up page | |||||
| 2.0 Topic Detail Page | Title and Intro Copy | H | Please add Lorem Ipsum copy to each Topic's Intro Copy field. Or else (preferred) we need to see the admin edit screen for this page. | Will grant admin privileges. | |
N | Can we add a button to "follow/unfollow" this topic? – which is essentially the same as signing up for that topic on signup. | Need to discuss. May need to launch without this and introduce shortly after launch. | |||
| Add Post CTA | H | Buttons should read "Login" and "Sign Up" (not Register) | In Progress | ||
| Posts | H | Posts do not currently display uploaded images. This is not the desired behavior – we want uploaded images to display above posts. | They are disabled. We need to discuss. This behavior. | ||

| 4.0 Members | Filters | H | Filter dropdowns need to be themed; margins need to be corrected | Can adjust margins. Should talk about what the expected theme is vs the design we have. | |
| Add "Filter By" label above dropdowns | |||||

| In progress | ||
Try with photo at 60x60px | |||||
| H | Re-label: "# of posts/comments" -> "Activity level" | Our initial pass was going to be creating a line break. We did that, let's take a look. | |||
| H | Add topics to each entry. | In progress | |||
| 4.1 Member Profile Detail | General | N | We would like to restrict access to this page unless you're signed up. You can see the member table (4.0), but you should be prompted for login/signup (1.2) to get to this page. | ||
| Photo, Topics, Education | |||||
| Followers | |||||
| Bio + Follow, Message buttons | |||||
| Recent Activity | |||||
| 4.2 Compose Message | Form | ||||
| Messages inbox page | Message subject line should take up more width - add hover events to separate participant vs. subject line link destinations. | Let's discuss | |||
| 5.0 My Profile | Photo, Topics, Education | N | Need a way to "unsubscribe" from a Topic | ||
| Followers, Following | N | Need a way to "unfollow" someone on the My Profile page. I guess you click on that person, then you can unfollow them on that profile page. | |||
| Bio + Edit buttons | N | The current "View/Edit" tab at top of My Profile should become a simple Edit button, and it would be nice if we could get into more of a WYSIWYG mode, instead of the form for 5.1 Edit My Profile (see below) | The edit/view tab should not be there. Will remove. The edit button is found in the hover menu above. We can discuss adding another edit button somewhere on the page itself. | ||
| Recent Activity | |||||
| Formatting | L | Remove top margin from user-profile profile - top two blocks should be at same height | This is because of the "edit" and "view" tab. They should not be there at all. | ||
| 5.1 Edit My Profile | Form | N | We should migrate this page into more of a WYSIWYG editing format – where you can edit the blocks, instead of editing the entire form. | ||
| H | Relabel "Interests" to "Specific Areas of Interest" | Done | |||
| H | Free text entry is confusing in this Interests area - add directions. Enter one-by-one? Insert commas in between topics? | This is a comma separated type-ahead field. We should add directions/helper text for that. | |||
| H | Last name should go above "Location" | In Progress | |||
| M | Upon submit – unless there's a problem – the user should return to the My Profile (ie View) page (5.0) | In progress | |||
Update 'Topics of Interest' choices on sign up | |||||
| H | in Sign Up page: remove 'Show row weights' links | Where do you see this happening? | |||
| Is it necessary to require a password with every profile update? | |||||
| Username should be username/email, not first and last name | We should discuss what you mean here. | ||||
| 6.0 Projects | Currently empty | ||||
| 7.0 Resources | Currently empty | Add link to 'Resources' page to footer | Are we making a small primary menu item only type menu in the footer? What does this look like? Where does it go in the footer? | ||
| 8.0 About ClimateX | Currently empty | Add link to 'About' page to footer | Are we making a small primary menu item only type menu in the footer? What does this look like? Where does it go in the footer? | ||
| 10.0 EMAILS | Notification email (someone commented/posted in a Topic you were following) | N | These have a tendency to go to junk mail. Is there a way to prevent that? | I was under the impression that email notifications were out. We don't have email notification on this version of the site for alerts. | |
