Re: Should I Learn to Code?

This might give you motivation and a sense of purpose: LibriVox is open source. https://github.com/LibriVox/librivox-catalog

Re: Because we don't have a "Thank an IT Person" button...

:)

Thanks for taking the time to post this, I appreciate it! Yeah, the updates were all under the hood, everything was was... old. It feels good to be running on more recent (even latest, in some cases!) versions of stuff.

Re: Automated emails sent by LibriVox forum - question

The setup we use for sending mail is documented/implemented at https://github.com/LibriVox/librivox-ansible/tree/master/roles/mail It's been a while since I set it up, but I think we use SPF and nothing else? At least, that's what the DNS records tell me: [artom@zoe ~]$ dig librivox.org ANY ; <<>> D...

Re: Hoping to help with the code

@notartom is it correct to assume that as far as technical things and github you'd be the best person to stay in touch with (though I recognize your hours are limited)? If so, what's the best way to communicate? (this forum, github, email, some other chat)? Yeah, I'm the only resource for all thing...

Re: Hoping to help with the code

Context: we made Hacker News (a more techy reddit, which itself is a hipper Facebook - if you don't know Facebook, I can't help you :wink: ): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23563956

I used the opportunity to ask for help, and Raymond was kind enough to step up!

Re: Github

... which prompts me to ask, is our code (whatever it does) also in the Public Domain? I believe the requirement of the Melon project was that the code be open source, not necessarily public domain. Was the idea to put it on github for the purpose of soliciting suggestions to improve it? Or was it ...

Re: problems with librivox site

Librivox is using SSL certificates from Let's Encrypt, a fairly new certificate authority that's not supported in Windows XP before Service Pack 3, so I can only assume you're using XP with Service Pack 2 or earlier, which you really shouldn't be using for a variety of reasons unrelated to LibriVox....

Re: New Forums Help Thread

I've noticed that my e-mail notifications are now coming from info@librivox.org, rather than noreply@librivox.org. I had a rule set in yahoo mail to move all my notifications to a folder for review when I had time (so they don't get lost or mixed in with all my other e-mail). Now I need to figure o...

Re: New Forums Help Thread

Regarding the broken smilies, I believe the images really are gone. My guess is that, for the people that can currently see them, you're seeing a cached version on your browser. Using browsers that I've never used to visit the site, I'm getting an HTTP 404 error on addresses to the broken emoji ima...

Re: Site Improvements List - BC/Admin Link

Well, as a web designer myself, I know that as each new page is generated from a template, each one containing the same static links every single time Except here it would be different for every thread, since, for example, https://forum.librivox.org/viewtopic.php?f=60&t=67010 contains a BC Admi...
