General Announcement
The time is now to join together to train committee members to try out TMA Concept Web to interactively do our transcribing from our current website into the portal. We can now word process our content (outlines, presentations, images, links, references, templates, etc.) directly to the committee record. Once the committee approves and submits to record for consideration, the information goes into a buffer we all share.
As of May 27, 2024 all contents displayed by this system are suggested placeholders, meaning that we can change anything or everything to suit our needs.
This concept portal has many pointers back to the exising website to help committee members read, review and migrate the content.
Please be aware of the fact that we have yet to invite people from The Minnesota Assembly to login and begin to adapt from our current website to this new concept portal system.
At present we (The Assembly) have many people helping in the overall administrat/adjusting and managing of the website public website (via Go Daddy) and now today you can begin to see the future taking shape. We have established roles, groups and permissions to be able to share this workload with anyone who would volunteer to approach this with the required due dilligence along with us.
There are several components to this new portal:
- Front end and backend Joomla! 5.1 CMS (dubbed TMA Portal)
- Front end and backend Moodle (dubbed MAEOC Data Center)
- Middleware to join Joomla and Moodle (known as Joomdle)
- Single Sign-on capacility, meaning when you login to the portal you will also be logged in to the Data Center. When you logoff the Data Center, you may also be logged off the portal
- Be sure to have saved any editing sessions prior to logging off.
- Save your work often, as there can be no guarantee an active session won't be interrupted.
- Bare in mind, the doing of Government Works means we are here to add value, make a difference and serve the people.
There will be links to every thread of useful content regarding these huge topics. Members can all take part in changing those contents by editing the content options settings in the blog-like tabs in our system console. There is a link to System Console if you are logged in.
If you want to have your content and posts broken into several parts, an introduction and then a full length separate page, use the Read More span to insert a break. Fasten your seatbelts for a powerful ride.
On the full page you will see both the introductory content and the rest of the article. You can change the settings to hide the introduction if you want.
