Hacked site for testing twenty25-cas

  • Gift Aid declaration process

    Added slides of the pages, dialogues and emails seen during the process. Please comment

  • Misc Social payment form

    First version here.

    Halfway house between all-singing-and-dancing e-commerce system with products and a cart, which would be complex, and wouldn’t do the job, and an absolutely basic arrangement where event attendees were simply asked to send money to PPal@CAS.

    A remaining issue is how to distinguish the various payments (social events and membership purchase and renewal) in the PayPal activity log.

  • Giftaid declaration

    First version here

  • Web form

    Tidy up ncvp-cas-form plugin here.
    Still to do

    • Optional Giftaid (iff Purchaser = Member = Payer)
    • Optional Gift membership

  • Move Xmas campaign

    Move complete directory (without .htaccess, which probably wasn’t doing anything) to root subdirectory here.
    Change PayPal from live to sandbox.
    Easy to add a standalone page to a WP site. Shame the reverse is not possible. Unfortunately it doesn’t appear in the sitemap.
    Re-direct xmas.CAS to main site. Use
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; URL=https://www.cardiff-astronomical-society.co.uk">
    One line in header, no messing with .htaccess or DNS records. See W3c article

  • Add Talks system

    /talks – Next talk details
    /talks/past – list of past talks
    /talks/future – list of future talks

    Click on any row in either list to get the talk details.
    c. 40 talks entered, but there’s no reason why they shouldn’t all be added if anyone wants to.
    No search facility in the lists at the moment.

    Issues:

    • /talks/past and /talks/future don’t appear on the sitemap because they’re not real pages. (What about SEO?)
    • Individual talk details are still written as /talks/?id=nn. The slug is not being rewritten properly. This is not very serious.

  • Title changed

    Now ‘CAS web development’ to reflect more general tests.

  • Cloud site moved

    Cloud site moved to cas.ncvp.co.uk

  • Notes page added to membership form section

  • Membership form

    Online membership form with payment now ready for serious testing
