Add link back to sjeconomy.com site #122

Open mthong opened 8 years ago

The dashboard should link back to the main sjeconomy.com site.

The main landing page isn't that useful or content rich right now, so probably best to link back to the Resources page for now: http://sjeconomy.com/resources/

Not sure of the best location/style for the link. The main sjeconomy.com site has a "hamburger" icon in the upper right corner. We'd have to move the date header text to make this work.

Maybe for now I'll just add some text at the top of each page?

Can't believe I didn't think of this earlier!

Yup - that can be added to the intro text for the dashboard.

About page is just html, so can be anywhere.

Thought it should link back to your blogpost - http://sjeconomy.com/august-2016-snapshot/

I've added the link via the intro text parameter in general_config.json but I don't like how much space it takes up. Making it more condensed was confusing too. Thinking about removing it from the main dashboard page until we can put it in the header...

I changed the about page but won't get a chance to rebuild/redeploy until tomorrow at the earliest, which I'm fine with. People can just use their back button until then.

Maybe someone can work with you on Thursday. The html that you are looking for is in src/containers/Dashboard/Dashboard.js

Do you want all the menu items in the current hamburger menu copied over? We won't be able to do search or switch languages.

We could strip off the header & footer and you could see if you can host it on the wordpress page like you do some of the other embedded content.

You could also make the SJECONOMY in the header text a link. Not currently supported in the config - would need to add it to the code.

Hi @mthong and @LaurieSReynolds, I think you've got a great site going here and I'm eager to dip my feet into world of open source. Is this project still active? I'd be interested in contributing if it is. Thank you!

Look for @mthong. Once you are on slack, let me know and I can schedule a session going over the app and current state.
