Introduction
Tiki.org should be revamped to be more attractive, organized and informative, this seems to be a general feeling for most community members.
This page is opened to help to reach this goal.
For historial perspective, see InfoTikiWikiOrgDev, TwoRevamp, TwoRevamp, doctwo Revamp and dev.tiki.org Revamp

Demo site
First we need a playground. As discussed, it should be on demo.tiki.org and it should be linked to trunk for now.
http://demo.tiki.org/tiki_org_revamp/
I (ricks99) thinks it should be linked to LTS — not trunk. IMHO, we need a live, high-traffic site running LTS for dogfooding. All the other *.tiki.org sites are already running Trunk.
Steps
- First we focus on info.tiki.org, the landing site of Tiki. The goal is to have a modern looking, friendly and informative page that grabs the visitors' attention. This site remains separated from the rest of the tiki community sites.
Link: not yet
- Next focus is on consolidating smaller subsites as workspaces into the community site with a fresh look.
Maybe we should first list the advantages/disadvantages of consolidating the subsites (subdomains) into the community site, even if this is just a formality. And then, as we dogfood, document how it is done, as a model for other users' sites. (:Gary)
Link: not yet
- Final step is to migrate doc, dev and community to the consolidated community site.

Notes
- Make a nice front page with something like: http://tympanus.net/Tutorials/CreativeCSS3AnimationMenus/index4.html
- "Executive summary" content like Tiki+FAQs seems more like belonging to info.tiki.org, no?
- I think we should have a page/section for each of the 10 main use cases: show:Tiki+for+Web+agencies#s5 (Marc)
- I think we should have a page/section for each of the main types of users: Use Cases (Marc)
- We should aim for an experience like this: Evolution of participation (Marc)
- Look at: http://info.tiki.org/tiki-list_banners.php
- Add some carousel or slider plugin to the homepage of t.o (and/or the homepage of new tiki installs) to visually display the data in chunks. Example (quick & dirty page done for a workshop):
