Help Manual Maintainers?
#1

Hi Jerry,

Is it there another person helping you with LL Help Manual?

Here is another suggestion: I posted how to mount drives in LL using the GUI:
https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/secur.../#msg29832

Of course, it needs plain LL screenshots and maybe some rewording but it is definitely a better (plain) way for new users to mount drives, etc. For new users to have to go through file:///usr/share/doc/litemanual/install.html#mountpartdrives is not only scary but somewhat dangerous. Case in point, I believe that section can be updated in the Lite Manual leaving what's there for "advanced users" and adding a most newbie friendly way to mount drives/partitions as I posted in that thread.

For your consideration.

You're more than welcome to send commits to GH for the Help Manual. Easier, clearer descriptions are always welcome.

I'm not sure what you mean :(
I pushed kiosk mode to master almost a week ago

What's the search functionality status? Any progress on this or did it get stuck?

Search - It's 'ready' but we are still getting it perfected. Corresponding to India and back to NZ takes some time I have found :)

In the meantime I've finished working on our new Social Media counts on the main website...

That's nice :)

Don't rush it... just make sure we can further update its context and that it is indexed or whatever as new updates are pushed. The manual search should be perfect.
