2018-10-06 Next Steps for Oddmuse 6

I recently added question-asking and rollbacks to Oddmuse 6. This takes it closer to being usable on the wild Internet.

Oddmuse 6

Here’s what it still needs before it can deployed on the Intranet:

• a link to an administration page
• a way to enter your administrator password
• a way for administrators to lock the site for non-administrators
• a way for administrators to lock a page for non-administrators
• a way to list all the locked pages
• a protected page where administrators can put banned phrases.
• an error when people try to save pages containing banned phrases
• a way to list all the pages containing banned phrases

Here’s what I’d like to see:

• preview button
• cancel button
• full text search
• page title match
• page tagging
• tag search
• tag cloud

Interesting next steps:

• namespaces
• comments
• file uploads

Nice to have:

• a SQLite backend, once the storage API is stable
• an extension to provide an example of how this could be achieved

Anyway, I’ve been following the instructions on distributing modules and I’ve received my PAUSE account info, and so uploaded what I have to CPAN!

And I have a public install: Next Oddmuse. Write-up to follow.

The website doesn’t look good on my phone: checkboxes and buttons are minuscule.
