Flowershow website - improvements Jan 2023

[rufuspollock]

Variety of site improvements as of Jan 2023

Tasks

• Feature section v0.2 on the front page #247
• review our home page and see what can be improved
• review our docs and update them if necessary
• remove this text, this is not needed for regular users
  
• Enable/disable hover-over tooltips per page #455
• make this link point directly to our gh roadmap board
  
• hide "Created by Flowershow", it's obvious and looks awful (should be easy to add a bool prop in config; I bet not everyone wants to show it in their footer anyway)
  
• make sure all our docs pages and tutorials are listed in /docs/index.md
  • also (if needed): adjust their titles and names used in links on the /docs/index.md page
• remove this part from /roadmap page (?)
  
• investigate and fix broken (or outdated ?) Algolia results ✅2023-12-19 ❌ couldn't fix and moved to own issue Search working (again) on Flowershow.app (current algolia search is not working) #609

@PhilippeduPreez I've added some tasks to this issue. If you have time this sprint, maybe you could at least start fixing some of these?

[olayway]

@rufuspollock we'll need access to algolia portal to investigate the search issues

[PhilippeduPreez]

@olayway I think the hover-over tooltips can only be enabled or disabled for all pages and not specifically the home page, and on other index pages at the moment. So should I disable it for all with:

const config = {
  showLinkPreviews: false,
};

like shown at https://flowershow.app/docs/link-previews

@PhilippeduPreez @olayway This is a quick fix if needed.

[PhilippeduPreez]

@khalilcodes I'll add the hover-over functionality change in a new issue and make you reviewer for the PR

Yes @PhilippeduPreez, I know, and this is exactly what I meant.

@rufuspollock @khalilcodes Can anyone grant me access to our Algolia account? I think the search problem is due to not triggering a reindexing.

[PhilippeduPreez]

@rufuspollock @khalilcodes Or if we have Crawler Public API access, we could implement a github action https://github.com/algolia/algoliasearch-crawler-github-actions

@PhilippeduPreez i've investigated now and i think only i can have access (no way to add others) - and it is tied to my github account.

I found the issue which was that crawl had stalled for some reason (many months ago - see date in screenshot below which is last august!). I've now restarted it so re-indexing should happen soon.

FIXED. I'm closing this as most stuff done. Algolia item has its own dedicated issue now #609 and moved other stuff that was not done into Docs Inbox issue #24
