Thanks for all the comments and suggestion. Now for WEEK ONE assignments. I am assuming you all have access to the admin section - I added everyone so I assume you all got a username and password but I don’t know how much access you have to the admin section. I you have a problem contact Sangeeta or Lenin for help. I think they can upgrade your site privledges?
ASSIGMENTS FOR WEEK ONE
Lenin - Upload a video in the image box on the homepage. It should be just 6 seconds and it should be a video of Mark, Teddy and Lenin saying Hi I am Mark and Hi I am Teddy and Hi I am Lenin
Joanna - blog with photos of our journey from Guadalara to LA to Hong Kong to Bangalore to Guawathi to Shillong
Shalini - Set up the profile fields in BuddyPresss and create your profile in this section of BuddyPress. Since I don’t know anything about it I hope it is possible. Once it is set up you need to ask the 11 people working on this to complete the profile form. You make make it simple and later we can expand it.
Sangeeta - manage usernames and passwords for all the people on this list - in other words help people log in etc. You may need to do more - I don’t know what is involved. Next go to the Thesis theme admin area and create 3 columns next add these menu items at the top. ????
Vilasini - Login to the admin and see what is there. Then post 3 ideas for how we can use this new site to help us be more effecient.
Mark - In the admin section click widgets and set up two widgets in sidebar 1. Once you know how to do this is just takes seconds. In sidebar one ( left sidebar) add PAGES and Catagories (dropdown). Teddy can set up the right sidebar

Nishi -
Teddy - Create a catagory called Weekly Reports and post a summary of your report with your photo. Remember this is visible to anyone so be sensitive and confidention in what you post. Also put the widgets RECENT POSTS and SITE WIDE ACTIVITY in sidebar #2 ( right sidebar) You do this by going to Thesis Options in the admin section.
Priya - Create a menu item by going into the admin section and clicking Thesis Options. Next go to Navigation. Here you need to create a menu item called Profiles. When you click this you should be able to see profiles like on this site http://flokka.com/members/
