description/plans: Continue migrating data from the old CMS to the new CMS
To be completed: TBD (long-term)
Hey everyone. Last week has been much of the same as before. I’ve just been migrating pages from the old CMS to the new CMS. A couple interesting things though, is that there are new features in Pages that have been added, such as the ability to have two columns, images with no text, and probably the biggest feature of all, tables. Because they have now added tables to Pages, there are a lot more pages that we can migrate, so this past week I’ve just been working on those. Some of those pages are quite extensive with a lot of content, so it takes some time to check for broken links and add/format everything. All in all, though, not too difficult. Here is an example of one of the large pages that I have migrated.
I haven’t gotten to work too much on my other trainings but I’m pretty close to finishing the HTML training. There’s currently a little bug that I have to fix because I added a flip page feature with JavaScript, but after seeing Slack I might have to hold off on it for a little bit because I’m moving to the Blanton project and splitting time between that and COLA, so I’m sure I’ll have my hands full for a while.
