• Monthly calls page
• Redirect from video tutorials url

Problem statement

The video tutorials page is outdated and has broken content. We should remove this page and redirect the video tutorials page to a new monthly calls page.

Solution

• Remove the video tutorials page and redirect it to a new monthly calls page.
• Create a new monthly calls page with selections from the following info:
  • Monthly call spreadsheet (Google sheets 🔒 - @thisisdano)
  • Monthly call page copy (Google sheets 🔒 - @sarah-sch)

Testing and review

• Confirm that the video tutorials page has been removed and the url redirects to the monthly calls page
• Confirm that the video tutorials page is removed from the side navigation
• Confirm that the new monthly calls page exists and has appropriate, accurate content
• Confirm that the new monthly calls page is added to the side navigation
• Confirm that the on-page navigation works and reads as expected

Based on the recommendation in this comment, I embedded the playlist on the monthly calls page. I had a couple of questions:

- It looks like it defaults to show only the most recent video in the playlist, with an icon that opens a menu to show thumbnails of other playlist videos. I'm a bit concerned that users might not immediately understand that there are more videos in the playlist. Maybe we can add some copy that explains that there are more available with a link to the full playlist? We could also investigate digging into the YouTube API for other display options, but that increases the complexity quite a bit, and I'm not even sure what options we have there.
- Are we sure that this playlist will only ever have monthly calls on it?

No longer using the playlist - instead, showing a list of individual MCs

[sarah-sch]

I have added two suggestions.

[mejiaj]

Nice work, page looks good

[amyleadem]

@sarah-sch I committed your suggestions. Will you take a look at the page preview and let me know if you want any changes?

[mahoneycm]

Looks great! Some super minor suggestions but overall I love this!

Testing checklist

• Confirm that the video tutorials page has been removed and the url redirects to the monthly calls page
• Confirm that the video tutorials page is removed from the side navigation
• Confirm that the new monthly calls page exists and has appropriate, accurate content
• Confirm that the new monthly calls page is added to the side navigation

• Changelog is added

[sarah-sch]

@amyleadem - sorry that I missed your request to review yesterday, but looks great!

[sarah-sch]

These changes look good to me.

[thisisdano]

I don't think the playlist-only solution is best solution here. We have all these monthly calls, and all these different topics, but this makes it feel like there's only one.

We have a real opportunity here to help direct folks to a specific monthly call, and to get a sense of the breadth of their topics. The overhead of adding new videos from month to month is worth it if we can point folks to this page and make it useful for finding a specific monthly call on a topic that's useful to the vistor

[amyleadem]

@thisisdano No problem! We are working on including some more of the details that were in your spreadsheet now. I'll ping both you and @sarah-sch when it is ready.

Edit: That is, unless you are happy with it is in its current state!

[thisisdano]

Oh cool. I added an example of how it might work with a couple of commits, but feel free to modify or just use your own solution

[amyleadem]

@thisisdano Here is what ours was looking like (Not too different!). Let me know if you have a preference and I can update the data.

[amyleadem]

@thisisdano @sarah-sch I went ahead and included both the bulleted event details and the subtitle. I am going to come back through tomorrow morning to validate all of the data. Let me know if you want any changes to the template!

Clearing this review because we re-worked the page content and it needs new approval.

[amyleadem]

Update: I ended up validating the data today instead. Let me know if you have questions!

[sarah-sch]

Hi, @amyleadem, I'm requesting a few changes.

[amyleadem]

@sarah-sch and @thisisdano I have updated the layout to include the monthly calls from January-October 2023 and validated the data. Will you take a look and let me know what you think?

[sarah-sch]

@amyleadem - sorry to keep adding changes - I am suggesting descriptions for the couple of months that don't have them. This change will make the different month entries more uniform.
