Front-end
Deadline
Goal
Tasks
Mid-July
The German site is usable.
BUG: Following a link to an English episode on the German site takes visitores to the English site. Hard to fix. Perhaps a feature request should be posted to Polylang. For now this can only be worked around by adding English episodes twice, once classified as English and once classified as German. However, this may leads to invalidate language date and may break A11Y assumptions.
Test whether episode speakers and series speakers both show up on a series page/entry if both are given and differ.
Add link title attribute to metadata entries.
There are no PHP warnings on the front-end, even with debugging enabled.
Mid-August
A11Y has been reviewed.
BUG: Taxonomy lists in which the series metadata entry is hidden, consequently, also have their episode number hidden, leaving no episode number for visually impaired visitors; this metadata block should only be hidden for non-screen readers.
Test the site with screen readers.
Ask disabled colleagues for feedback.
Mid-August
The English site is usable.
BUG: Series taxonomies don't show up on episode pages on the English site.
Translate legal information into English.

All old episodes are tagged and classified.

-
University infrastructure
Allow login with a u:account.
Make it easy to use the philosophy department’s AV equipment for recording lectures.
Attachments
Enable upload of attachments for podcasts.
Allow to lock uploads with a password or require a student u:account.
Documentation
Have how-tos for common tasks.
Refactoring
Have separate production, staging, and testing environments for the future; each using a similar setup based on schroeder.
Maybe create taxonomies in our own plugin, rather than by using a third party one.
Refactor our plugins and our theme.
Some taxonomies are associated with posts, not podcasts, so that we can use ACF to validate user inputs; it might be better to hide it completely when development is done; but this needs to be documented somewhere.
Better search
Search allows to use boolean operators.
Search can be limited to particular fields.
Search terms are automatically translated, if translations are available.
