Done?

/news only showed /news/network that had been promoted via nodequeue

now this won't be desirable - now we want all news generated on tn.org to be /news. ie we don't want to have to promote it on nodequeue

is that done?

firstly DO NOT CHANGE THIS URL UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, I just sent it to 10.5K people

This URL: http://www.transitionnetwork.org/news/2011-06-23/conference-2011-update

is a network news item, using nodequeue to be /news

the breadcrumb still says network news

.. seewhaddimean?

if network news automatically becomes /news, that's fine,

Sorry, wasn't clear from the original ticket what precisely to do...
Have removed 'promoted via nodequeue' stuff, hence /news will show Imported News and Transition Network News... Or do you want Community news in there despite the SE resyndicating the stuff at /news/community?
No URLs will change.
Breadcrumbs updated to remove 'network' (breadcrumbs are per CT)
Widget views updated too, they were using the nodequeue
Nodequeue for News removed since nothing is using it now.

All groovy?

Sorry it wasn't explicit enough.

Here's the breakdown I want: /news: will show only news generated on TN.org as Transition Network news CT (http://www.transitionnetwork.org/node/add/network-news) /news/community: will show imported community news from the SE

'Imported news' isn't being used at all at the moment - errr - umm - I don't think - it was for a 'partners' style news option in the future around which nothing is happening at the moment. I guess in the future we might want to be able to collect news from partner organisations, a la blogs importing. But not now.

which begs the question. Shall we just remove the 'imported news' and imported news parent' CTs to keep things tidy?

i can't think of any use for them now...

discussion on Friday, 10:00?
