I have let through all the pdfs that were held in moderation. I let them 
through one every few days so as not to overload people mail queue too 
much, but many accounts would have bounced the message which may have 
had the side effect of unsubbing them from the list. I have saved them 
and have added a few to document downloads already, and yet to do the rest.

The best idea would have been for doordtp to have added them to website 
themselves. Does doordtp have a username login for the site, and does it 
want it status upped to add articles and submit document direct to the site.

Also there are some HTML versions of some of articles that I think T put 
on site ages ago, but at moment they are 'unpublished' which means only 
logged in admins see them. I asked here ages ago about them and she said 
see was waiting till they were all there and had time to format well. 
But time has slipped on and I will 'publish' ie make pages viewable by 
all, unless hear otherwise people can always unpublish them if need be.

Another thing to note is when one is editing an article if one does not 
press save or cancel then article remains 'checked out', even if one 
closes browser window which means it is not visible on the site nor can 
other editors work on it. It may be good practise when you have finish a 
session working on site to see if you have any items checked out and 
check them back in if need be.

Always look at how anything you have worked on the site looks from front 
end.

A reminder to those with admin access: there is an admin interface 
accessible via:
http://www.dissent.org.uk/administrator/

You can do much more here than from add/edit buttons that appear on site 
when logged in.
You re login here with same login and password used on login module on 
each page of site.

Also I have found I do not have time to respond to all enquiries / 
issues  about website to level that would be desirable, please do bear 
with this but not I do read all message to this list and take on board 
as I am sure all other admins do who spend time working on the site.

cheers,

Space Bunny
