# Old Business:

## Sticky Login


{BOX()}**Motion** Whereas -it is annoying to have to traverse from the home page back to where i was when i decided to login, we should change the site config and layout such that: 
a) login box is in the top bar (like two) 
b) logging in does not return the editor to the homepage.{BOX}

DT: I see as low priority, but if you can get someone to do the work..... 
MLP: I will do it or have it done if it is approved.

## Renovate home page


DT: Home page was just cleaned up by ricks99. Please post a specific proposal to the dev list. 
MLP: Decisions by email? (shudder). Wiki developers, eat thine own dogfood? 
MLP: ((next home page)) - the prototype.

## Upgrade to tikiwiki 1.10?


{BOX()}Whereas: 1.10 allows - edit by section, redirect, advances in admin and groups, freetagging, etc. 
**Motion:** The EB recommends moving on to 1.10{BOX}

DT: Marc hosts the site, IMO, it's up to him when the upgrade gets done. 
MLP: Ok I will ask marc.

## Theme project.


{BOX()}**Motion:** Mike will be tasked to work with Marc and (Gary?) to work on a new theme for doct.two - on a test site first. {BOX}

DT: There are several themes available on themes.tw.o? Can't we just make them selectable? 
MLP: Selectable is ok. Maybe just a change to top_bar (see above). Perhaps having a demo on a test site would be a good thing to do before putting ths to a motion?

**Tabled:** So as to put the theme before the motion.

## Redo modules and menus.


DT: Modules and menus were just re-organized by ricks99. Please post a specific proposal to the dev list. 
MLP: see above. 😊

## Articles expire


{BOX()}**Motion**: Set all articles to expire after 30 days.{BOX}

no more than the last three on the main page.

DT: Or expire after 30 days? 
MLP: So amended.
