BugGuide 2.0 code sprint status update
We have now completed two weeks of the code sprint. Our contractor came on board January 2 at 20 hours per week thanks to our recent fundraiser.
The focus has been on correctly migrating the 2.5 million subscriptions that BugGuide keeps track of -- that's when you click to receive notifications by email of changes to or comments on BugGuide content. We believe that they are now coming through the migration pipeline successfully.
Next up are forum posts. They are migrating but there are some database relationships that are not making it through.
We have also been working on the new BugGuide theme. That's the look-and-feel for BugGuide. Our intention is to have a new theme that will look good on mobile devices and screens of all sizes.
I will try to post here every week or two just to let everyone know that progress is being made.
