Website url redirection #105

The url of the new OpenWIS Association website is currently http://openwis.github.io/openwis-documentation/ - ie: based on the default naming convention for gh-pages sites. We would prefer to keep http://www.openwis.io, the url of the old site.

Make this possible by redirection.

From @6a6d74
Regarding the website at the openwis.io domain, it would be simplest to configure the DNS to refer to what is currently available at openwis.github.io/openwis-documentation. A small reconfiguration would be required for the Jekyll project to use openwis.io as the base-URL ...

We want to use the openwis.io http://openwis.io domain for our URLs; e.g. So we can cite specific articles and rules using an authoritative URL. Currently, the documentation on GH-Pages has URLs as follows (e.g. for article 19.1):

http://openwis.github.io/openwis-documentation/articles/19-language.html#article-19.1

I think it should be:

http://openwis.io/doc/articles/19-language.html#article-19.1

(or similar - notice use of "doc" path segment; just a suggestion!)

@solson-nws Hi Steve, Are we intending to continue to use Discourse as the forum or do we need to discuss this at the 2018 Annual Meeting?

@solson-nws - can this now be closed as Discourse is in place?

Agreed. URL redirect would be the easiest approach. We still need a ‘forum’, which is why I brought up the Discourse deployment.

Jeremy,
The openwis.io website is managed by MFI and the other Rémy.
The easiest, if you agree, would be to have an HTTP redirect in place from http://www.openwis.io/cms/ to https://openwis.github.io/openwis-documentation/
So, the reference will be the one on github and it will be always in sync.
OK?
Rémy

Subject: OpenWIS Association documentation appears in two places on the Web - one copy is out of date!

Steve, Jude, see attached a discussion with Steve Foreman about the OpenCDMS project and the potential to host it in OpenWIS Association.

The important point for this particular discussion is:

“””
I see that we have two copies of the OpenWIS governance material published on the Web - and they’re out of sync.

The up to date materials are published at https://openwis.github.io/openwis-documentation/

Material published at http://www.openwis.io/cms/ is out of date.
“””

Issue #105 (#105) identifies the problem. It was opened more than 2-years ago. Sticking point appears to be the deployment of Discourse to replace the forum.

Please can we get the information at openwis.io synchronised & up to date as a matter of urgency? Preferably by putting the URL redirection in place?

Many thanks, Jeremy

Per SC on 11 Jan 19 - It was agreed that the http re-direct should be implemented as soon as possible to remove the duplicate sources of OpenWIS Association information appearing in the internet.

@benjaminsaclier to work with @remy-gibault to make the necssary changes.

Answers from Rémy:

  1. Redirecting the Forum menu from forum.openwis.io/ to openwis1.hosted-by-discourse.com does not work
  2. Redirecting the whole openwis.io domain to http://openwis.github.io/openwis-documentation/ does not work; it is not possible to redirect a domain to a page or a folder.

Adding a subdomain on github pointing to http://openwis.github.io/openwis-documentation/ might be a solution (to be tested).

Another ugly option would be to do an http redirect from the openwis.io/cms root page to http://openwis.github.io/openwis-documentation/.
The drawback is that the url will be replaced. The bots will reference the github pages, not openwis.io.
http://forum.openwis.io

@benjaminsaclier @loiclg @gib: How is this work coming along? The goal was to complete this by the end of June. Please update when you can.

Thanks!

Suggestion by @adrian-wood is to:

To get the http://openwis.github.io/ URL to work we’d need to rename the openwis-documentation repository so that it follows the appropriate naming convention (username.github.io) as per the following instructions - https://pages.github.com/

@remy-gibault is unable to do this.

@solson-nws and @benjaminsaclier - please advise on next steps

As agreed during TC of may in NWS, and as a temporary solution, a redirection has been done (using .htaccess):
http://www.openwis.io ---> http://openwis.github.io/openwis-documentation/

This is a temporary solution until the proper gihub repo renaming.

Thanks for confirming @loiclg. I've a quick search on Google and the rediection worked.

@solson-nws @benjaminsaclier - can this issue now be closed?
