The Pull Request (PR) introduces changes that remove author-related features from a blog platform, likely built with Gatsby (a React-based static site generator). The changes include:
Removal of author profile images, names, and social links from post footers.
Deletion of author pages and related metadata.
Renaming of JavaScript files to JSX, indicating a possible shift to using JSX syntax more explicitly.
Conversion of a CSS file to SCSS, suggesting a move towards using Sass for styling.
Adjustments to layout and styling to accommodate the removal of author elements.
The PR's purpose is to streamline the blog by removing author-specific elements, which could be for privacy reasons, simplification, or a change in content strategy. The impact is that blog posts will no longer display author information, and there will be no dedicated author pages.
Suggestion
Ensure that the removal of author features aligns with the blog's content strategy and that stakeholders are aware of these changes.
Verify that all author-related data is either properly handled or anonymized if privacy is a concern.
Test the blog thoroughly to ensure that the removal of author elements does not cause any unexpected layout or functionality issues.
Consider redirecting deleted author pages to a general about or team page to maintain a good user experience and SEO.
