There's no real way for me to test this.
I can give you access to the WordPress site - the problem is that I have never bothered to do a test site (actually, I did have one and that fell apart). Maybe I need to go back and do that so I can give you something to play with without destroying the production site by mistake... :-) > However, I know firsthand that adding multiple people to WordPress is a > pain in the ass to manage.

One person came in with intent to install malware, but I was tracing his work (I can't even remember why I was suspicious... I think it was because he had never really done anything on the mailing list and then out of the blue volunteered to help) and kicked him off the site within a couple of minutes. The other person deleted things by mistake which I was able to restore from backups. But at this point about a dozen people have access - some use it, some don't. The goal with the github repo was to make it less necessary for people to access WordPress directly... > I wonder if its possible to have a sandbox installation somewhere with the > current theme to play with, and a public (to contributors, anyways) > author/editor account? I might even have space to host it if need be. This is all hosted on my server, so space isn't the issue. It's the time it takes to manage such a sandbox.

Ha! Thanks for the work on the website that you've done already!!! /D _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
