Hello all,
I think the site could use some restructuring. I am unsure about the
costs/benefits of using the _posts structure and minimizing the YAML front
matter.
I've been testing a plugin to make a "category-aware" previous and next
button referenced in issue#270
https://github.com/hotosm/learnosm/issues/270#issuecomment-70338915.
I've also been trying to set up Travis CI to setup a "staging site" with
the help of the Travis CI support team but I've been running into problems
with gem dependencies, I wonder if this even the route to take now but
using bundler as a part of the setup process for the site would make this
smoother. I wonder if we should/could use bundler anyway to keep the gems
required for setup straight? Not sure if this will be useful later though.
*Testing Features: *I'd like to know what will happen if we add a simple
"next" and "previous" button to different posts. (Does separating the
languages resolve the need for the "category-aware" plugin?).
Best,
Jessica
