Someone else added it originally, I just put it in a spot that is more closely aligned categorically.

i might suggest a different format for the headings ā€œhere on lllllllllā€ and ā€œelsewhereā€ as they are repeated too often and break the flow.

perhaps just group the ā€œhere at llllā€ links first, then give a little divider, then the elsewhere list

ie

  • here
  • here
  • here
    ā€“
  • elsewhere
  • elsewhere
- here
- here
- here
--
- elsewhere
- elsewhere

I think thatā€™s fantastic.

I also donā€™t know if it is necessary to distinguish between them at all. Happy either way.

yeah that was what I was getting at earlier
I donā€™t know that we need to make that distinction

Thanks!

Iā€™m not capable of doing this without probably making a mess, but I still think it would be great to have the monome docs (and whatever other monome or Mannequins links you want) linked at the very topā€¦

I removed the heading levels from the here/elsewhere strings. Thatā€™s as much formatting mojo as I have for the day. :slight_smile: I think the ā€“ separator that @tehn suggested is also good so long as we tell people what itā€™s about near the top.

I think itā€™s probably fine like it is right now too though, errs on the side of clarity.

A process question.

I donā€™t yet know how to edit the wiki without making a mess of it. I want to learn but that will take time I donā€™t have at this moment.

What would be better under those circumstances, for me to put stuff into the wiki at the top of the thread and and hope someone else would make it fit nicely, or put the idea as a request in a post down here in the thread?

Thanks!

Put stuff at the bottom of the wiki for practice. That way if you blow something up or make something messy itā€™s not the first thing people see. :slight_smile:

Youā€™ll figure it out quickly, it is essentially the same as editing a post. Good luck!

Thanks!

Iā€™m realizing that my iPhone is a suboptimal interface for this kind of editingā€¦

Perhaps these kinds of very helpful but non-technical topics (psychology, emotions, cognitive, spirituality, art as path, etc.) could have their own wiki(s)?

Iā€™ve gotten a lot of inspiration, support and connection through posts of this kind, and would find it helpful to be able to find them from a single starting pointā€¦

I assume that it just needs someone to start building the page :+1:

Edit: it probably goes without saying that artistic folks tend to have certain emotional, psychological, cognitive or other vulnerabilitiesā€¦ and that there is the potential for some meaningful healing in connection with others in similar circumstances or in supporting others in divergent circumstancesā€¦

In other words a place and context for being compassionate, listening, insightful, and lovingā€¦ Thereā€™s a lot of that going on hereā€¦ We should celebrate itā€¦

:pray:t2:

i hear what youā€™re sayingā€” but itā€™s also easy to get caught up in the meta-classifying the entire forum.

i think itā€™d be good to first get the technical content to satisfying level. keep in mind that the original request for this project was due to what was seen as a need for centralization in an attempt to learn a particular tool. i want to make sure we first stay on track to fulfill that need.

Live-coding makes sense to me as a section within either Programming or Making Music areas. I could see a strong argument for either so maybe just put it in the area where youā€™re most comfortable.

Live-coding is a kind of music making so makes sense there.

Live-coding is using programming so makes sense there.

If you only have one or two links, it could go in the Music Tools & Technologies subsection. If you have three or more then Iā€™d say make its own subsection.

Would someone be willing to add something to the Discourse entry that specifically describes how to edit the index?

Thanks!

Is there a way to pin the index to the top for an individual user, e.g., me?

Iā€™d like for it to be at the top whenever I visit the forum but would not dream of imposing that on anyone else!

not the same result, but you can bookmark it (the blue icon next to the circled edit button, above, indicates that iā€™ve bookmarked it. just tap the icon), and it will be available from your bookmarks page:

Thanks, I got that but I donā€™t know how to format the text to follow the style conventions that are developingā€¦ itā€™s probably ridiculously easy but it would be helpful to have it documented somewhereā€¦

@eblomquist First things I would suggest are to take the Discobot tutorials.

  1. Go to your messages.
  2. Start a new message and address it to @discobot
  3. In the subject and message of your message type:

@discobot start tutorial

  1. That will take you maybe 10 or 15 minutes. When youā€™re done with that then, in that same message thread you can type:

@discobot start advanced tutorial

By the end of that youā€™ll know a whole lot more about how to play with Discourse.
