[Xerte-dev] Re: Name for 'bootstrap' template

Pat will tell us how, you can also enable particular templates for particular users (I could do with knowing, as I want to install the new template on our serves, but not make it widely available until it's settled down).

How about calling it something that describes the layout like Xerte Vertical Flow... I know that's a rubbish name but something descriptive.

Anyway, it begs the question that I've wanted to ask for a long time. We're using the 'Nottingham' template mostly but i see lots of other templates in the folder, including this bootstrap one but how do i enable them to make them show up in the editor?

Also, you describe the content types that will be available. I can see a need for the multiple choice (think end of section quiz) and the one which reveals stuff on button click.

Any other ideas?

It's also worth some discussion about how far we want to take this: at the moment it does plain text, video, audio, graphics, all with text and that's about it - except all the text is CDATA so it can be whatever html you want. I don't see this as doing interactive stuff - that's the main template's job, but presentation stuff, that's kinda what I'm driving at.

My suggestion was also about the resulting link and thinking about Google doc, sites, etc then...

Xerte Site

Xerte Site Template
A template for creating flexible and adaptable web pages and sites for all mobile devices

URL's:
/play_site_id
/preview_site_id

makes sense to me especially as a Xerte Site can also contain multiple Xerte LO's.

Ideas for what we should call the bootstrap template in toolkits? 'Bootstrap' isn't the right name for users, methinks... Ron suggested 'Site', even 'Web Site' or 'Xerte Website'

Answers on a postcard please.
