PLUG Website Changes:
Default submission settings have been changed from:
a) Immediate SAVE rather the REQUIRED Preview (save us all a step) You can still PREVIEW if you like.
b) Default Comments READ WRITE to DISABLED (We had extensive SPAM hosted via this old Comment ON default content submission setting - too hard to maintain - therefore you MUST change the Publishing option in order to allow Comments; we expect you to police your Comment On content page to ensure it's not SPAMMY).
c) Default Publishing Options Promoted to Front Page NOT CHECKED (You now must check it if you want it to appear on the front page rather than JUST have it displayed in the Right Side Panel as a "Future Event", or the leftside Panel under "Recent Posts". And we now can more easily ensure that the front page doesn't get to be 6 pages of full archeological posts, at some time or another, via this new system. We have some wonderful content that is regularly spidered, so now our SEO Settings and Google ratings will be higher without all that SPAM and without the duplicate Content Trees (Recent Posts and Front Page).
Other Changes:
I have unpublished ALL events except for 3 by unchecking the Publishing Option Promoted to Front Page.
I have deleted whatever SPAM was there in comments, although some might still exist.
It's a new year, so we now have the cleaned up our PLUG Site front page and system of use.
