Web Admin: Checklist
Following any changes to the structure of the website, either from staging or the live site it is prudent to conduct a series of checks to confirm that everything is working as it should be. The following checklist (not exhaustive) should be used as guide for your checks. There are a number of accounts that you can use for testing - they all have a status of 'System' and were created specifically for this sort of thing. Their membership numbers, names and permissions are as follows:
Membership No | Name | Permissions |
---|---|---|
123456 | Anne Other | Member |
999990 | Tester System | Member |
999991 | Coordinator System | Coordinator |
999992 | Committee System | Committee |
999993 | Catherine of Aragon | |
999994 | Anne Boleyn | |
999995 | Jane Seymour | |
999996 | Anne of Cleaves | |
999997 | Catherine Howard | |
999998 | Katherine Parr |
There is also a group 'System Test' that you can play around with too.
Depending on the complexity of any changes and the area or function of the change, you may select the checks appropriate to the change.
Although you can print a printable version of this page from the 'Printable version' link at the bottom of the left hand column menus, there is a much better formatted copy in the MediaWiki folder of the Arda Issues shared drive. It is recommended that you use this one.
