To create an event webpage in the style of this one:
- Building the website
- Fork the template repository (as Github limits the number of forks an individual can make of a single repo, you may need to fork a different oh-campus site or email Github to request your previous forks be made free-standing repositories.)
- Customize
- Change repository name to reflect event
- Change colors if needed (I like to use school colors)
- Change text: date, time, location, name of hosts
- Create a new sign up form for the event (may just duplicate previous ones) and change the link on the website.
- Add, commit, and push changes back to Github.
- Set up NearlyFreeSpeech.net site
- Visit https://www.nearlyfreespeech.net/
- Log in as Asheesh (paulproteus) by clicking "Member Login", etc. (sadly I think only Asheesh can do this due to nfs.net permissions)
- Click "Accounts" in top nav
- Click "OpenHatch" account
- Click "Create a new site"
- Type oh-university_name in the site name field
- Enter university_name.openhatch.org in the "User another name" form
- Choose "Static content, stochastic" as site type
- Click "Create now"
- Visit the site's admin panel in NFS.net, and then "Add a new alias"
- Add www.university_name.openhatchorg as an alias
- Set up domain name with linode.com
- Log into linode.com (username openhatch) and create a new CNAME record
- Go to DNS manager and click 'Create new CNAME record'
- Alias <campusname>.openhatch.org to oh<campusname>.nfshost.com
- Also alias www.<campusname> to <campusname>
- Log into linode.com (username openhatch) and create a new CNAME record
- SSH into linode
- cp -a old_dir new_dir
- cd new_dir
- rm -rf data
- git clone git://github.com/openhatch/oh-whatever-it-is.git data
- edit and run ./update_and_push
