I just got this message when editing the pages:

The page build completed successfully, but returned the following warning:

You are currently using the Jekyll Bootstrap framework which has a known incompatibility with Jekyll v3.1. To fix this incompatibility, change `page.theme.name` in `_includes/JB/setup` to `layout.theme.name`. Your site may not build properly until this change has been applied. For more information, see http://jekyllrb.com/docs/upgrading/2-to-3/#layout-metadata.

is it save to just do this? @crucialfelix ?

_{how can i access all those, and more important how can i copy the information which is there for my hard drive, and having it all neat and organized locally}

Now that GH pages moved to https, fonts are not loaded by our old theme.
I'm willing to redesign the whole site by using a modern, minimal and sleek theme (à la https://supercollider.github.io/sc3-plugins).. This would be my summer-holidays-present : )

2021 update

I'm gonna propose a fresh new website, with a simple and modern design (mobile friendly).
Seeing that over the last 4 years there were no real consensus reached as to what content should or should not go I'm gonna propose something very minimal and if the community likes it someone can take over from there : )

• use modern jekyll folder structure
• use mobile-first simple theme
• remove cruft and keep concise minimal content
• .md files over .html when possible
• add a carousel/gallery with community projects
• dedicated download page (we have too many possible downloads)
• audio snippets for code examples

I think there should be a better-organized and more comprehensive page for projects done in SC. From my experience with other languages, one of the first questions I ask when coming to new software is "what can I do with this, and what have others done with it?". What the community is doing (and therefore what kind of projects they might be helpful with or have experience with) seems to me to be a crucial feature of any software project. A well-documented projects page can also serve as a repository of ideas and inspiration for future projects. I think these sentiments might be shared by a significant number of newcomers to SC.

Some features I think would be important:
Embedded sound and video (youtube / soundcloud links)
a short blurb for each project summarizing what it is and how it uses SC
maybe categories for projects? Composition, sound installation, instrument, etc?
snippets of code accessible straight from the browser, for projects where that makes sense

Examples of projects pages that I think do a good job(we don't necessarily have to copy these, but it's worth discussing whether we think they're good and how)

https://cycling74.com/community/?q=project
https://processing.org/exhibition/

I particularly like the Processing projects page - it's concise, curated and has a lot of description up front.

Let me know what you think!

I just approved a pull request, that just adds an image file. I got a pages "build failure" email from github.

Dan Stowell added something yesterday and from the looks of the front page it did not successfully build after that. I don't see any reason why though, it looks quite simple.

but it seems to have broken there.

9b4d7d0

still investigating. I will have to do a pull and local buildout to figure it out. if anybody else has time, please look into it if you have the chance.

this issue is mostly a "note to self" since I'm probably going to do this. the Contributing page could use some more visibility and content, so it's easy to find and has all the information new developers need to work on SC

I think we need to specify ruby version and jekyll version in a Gemfile, maybe change a markdown parser in _config.yml?

The first part of this quote is a link to a non-existing page http://doc.sccode.org/Reference/Server-Command-Reference

Small css issues:

• SC logo is misplaced (index page)
• SC title should have a slight shadow (all pages except index)
• padding is missing between projects (projects page)
• there should be at least 2 projects per row on wide resolutions (projects page)
• open source has too much emphasis (index page)

The layout as a whole looks a little awkward: it may be better to align the sections the same way as the images, and also not just vertically?

Re jekyll/jekyll#5267

Hi,

I just installed SC 3.9.1 under Windows 7. I managed to build polyphonic Ndef with the following code (with SC 3.9.0) but now it says ".setAt not understood". Has it been removed? Why is it broken now?

########################
(
SynthDef( \myInstr1, { arg freq = 440, amp = 0.25, xgate = 0;
var e = EnvGen.kr(Env.asr(0.01, 1, 1, -4), gate: xgate, doneAction:0);
var sig = SinOsc.ar( freq!2, 0, e * amp );
Out.ar(0, sig);
}).send;
)

Ndef(\test1).play;
Ndef(\test1).put( 0, \myInstr1, 0, [\freq, 60.midicps, \xgate, 0]);
Ndef(\test1).setAt( 0, \xgate, 1 );
...
########################
I used to make polyphonic sound with many instances build with many ".put( ...".

but on the site it doesn't work:

http://supercollider.github.io/community/systems-interfacing-with-sc

the footnote style links do not work. They are messy to deal with anyway; all links should be inline.

I'd like to flag some shortcomings of the webpage. After all, there's only one chance to make a first impression.

• The atari example on the web page apparently requires one to install an Atari UGen. This is not mentioned or explained anywhere on that page (I had to check the source code to find out where to get it!). New users pasting the example code in supercollider for the first time therefore are met with error messages without any clue how to go about solving them = instant turn-off.

• Examples on the front page probably should also explicitly mention that one has to boot a server first (or should be rewritten using s.waitForBoot).

http://supercollider.github.io/examples/audio-examples.html

Gives a "The video does not exist" message

For example:

1. Go to http://supercollider.github.io/workshops/2013/10/07/supercollider-workshop-in-Vigo-introduction-to-supercollider/
2. Scroll to the bottom and click "Edit this page", which links to https://github.com/supercollider/supercollider.github.io/edit/master/workshops/2013/10/07/supercollider-workshop-in-Vigo-introduction-to-supercollider
3. Hit a smug 404 page.

sciss wrote on sc-dev:

someone asked me how to see SC activity; since I'm no longer that
involved, I thought I look it up on the page:

https://supercollider.github.io/

If you scroll down to Community, there is a link to 'Slack' but if you
follow it, I get "This link is no longer active"

On the repo README.md, there is link to https://scsynth.org/

I think probably website should remove Slack link and add scsynth.org link.
