Vision5 - CreatIQ
Notes
Marcus
Site design:
- Wireframe diagrams for site
- Explanations of design elements
- Examples of other sites
Images:
- Logos
- Cover images
Facebook:
- Prepare main Vision5 page for merge
- Merge FB pages
Social media integration:
- Link in FB / TW / INST to one account
- Can handle messaging for all?
- Test that pushes to all the platforms
Peter (to be updated)
Suggested approach (ideal situation)
Blitz the site:
- Try to create a site with a massive ‘wow’ factor to get people excited quickly
- Most of the wow comes from using great images, on multiple pages for each [section]5
- Will really get momentum going quickly
- There will be some cost to Peter, but I’ll make that worth his while down the line
Overall:
- Build a site of many simple pages
- Each page [name].5.vision
- Each page looks great, but not information overload
Generate from GingkoApp:
- GingkoApp (here) has JSON output
- Marcus can write here quickly
- Written in Markdown
- Write code to extract the JSON and parse the Markdown
- A little longer to set up (perhaps), but it’ll be quick to make changes in the future (minutes or seconds)
- Better long-term solution
- Only an extra day’s worth of programming to set up (at most)
Hosting:
- They host everything so I don’t have to worry about it until I’ve got my own team to handle things
- Not too worried about multiple servers for the Lightworker5 site, but will want to have plenty of backups for the main Vision5 site later (in case of DDoS / heavy load)
Team:
- 5 people until the 18th April
- Might not need everyone
- More, just in case
Tasks (Marcus):
- Content writing
- Core logo design
- Find cover photos
Tasks (other):
- Server admin / setup
- Generating HTML from GingkoApp
- HTML template creation
- Page design (CSS)
- Generate white logos
- Find other images for the different sections
- Create the stack diagrams
Text content:
- I’ll hand him the stuff in the quickest way for me to produce it (I’ve got a lot to do, and formatting takes up time for me)
- Use Gingko (this)
- We’ll use this page to generate the content by scraping the content from the JSON
- Instructions are written here for developers
Images:
- Shared storage?
- Dropbox?
- Github?
Logos:
- Vector format done in Illustrator
- I just provide colour logos, and they make white-on-transparent ones from that (since we’ll need both)
Shutterstock:
- Set up a Shutterstock account so I can download more images (preferably ASAP)
- That way I can download new images and create logos / get the photos I want and then just hand them over
- No need for me to explain things to developers
Sites
Sites in general
Domains:
- 5.vision (main)
- d.5.vision (devel)
- t.5.vision (testing)
- a.5.vision (admin)
Languages:
- English-only for now
- We’ll do multi-lingual in the main site we’ll launch
- Would like to make a big impact, so have it in lots of different languages (50?)
- So many, because I want to get people from poor countries to sign up early on, because that will help the philanthropic side
- Also, if it’s in 50 (or 55?) languages, that’s a huge ‘wow’ factor that inherently says this is serious
- Nobody will translate into Tamil for example if it’s not serious
- It’s also inherently giving respect to people who speak second-tier languages who are used to having to do things in a second-language (which will not only be appreciated by the people, but also by the people with some power)
- Also, it’ll make it harder to suppress if the info is all out there
Lightworker5 site
2 pages:
- www.5.vision (multiple pages)
- lightworker.5.vision (single pages)
www.5.vision:
- Outline of Vision5
- Introduction on each section
www.5.vision +:
- More info on each section in the form of a table
- I’ll just send them headings and text, and they can copy/paste (quicker for me)
Vision5 site
Example:
- http://www.oxfordhouse.nl/films
- Have a little introduction for each section
- Photos for each
- Logos for each
Tasks
Nameservers:
- Makes sense for me to set his nameservers for 5.vision (and other domains)
Hosting:
- Set up single hosting on whatever works best for them
Extract GingkoApp JSON:
- Fetch this documents
- Filter is as agreed
- Convert the Markdown
- Once that is done, the rest is pretty easy
Switching sites:
- [dev] d.5.vision - dynamic (always changes)
- [test] t.5.vision - static (copied from dev)
- [live] 5.vision - static (copied from test)
Page design:
- Cover picture for each page
- White logo for each section on top of the image?
- Main menu at top
- Menu bar in top-right
- Footer section to main links
Use existing template ?:
- Find appropriate template that we could use or could create our own
- Will be generating own HTML, so might be easier
- Copy CSS only
- Test out with logo and some text
URL conversions:
- [dev]
Social media:
- Don’t want to have to deal with same posts on all platforms
- Just Facebook for now
- Twitter and Instagram later
- If there’s a platform we could merge all three, then perfect - will use that
Stack diagrams:
- Multiple stack diagrams for Internet5 / Web5 / Awakening5
- Sketch images to be provided by Marcus
- Example
Stack:
- Set up Stack (or other tools) for group
Dropbox:
- Setup Dropbox (or other cloud storage) for group
Shutterstock:
- Set up Shutterstock to be used by team
- Would like to have access afterwards, so maybe just extend the one I currently have if they don’t have one already
Admin button (bonus):
- a.5.vision
- Simple login
- Admin button to move dev -> test and test -> live
Tools
Agreed actions

General
This GingkoApp page contains the content for the Vision5 websites that
Sources
Tree : gingkoapp.com/vision5-creatiq
JSON : gingkoapp.com/vision5-creatiq.json
Extracting the content
- Fetch the JSON content from the JSON link above
- Parse the tree using the ‘content’ and ‘children’ cards to structure it

Content sections
Content blocks:
- Content sections may be a single cards or multiple cards
- If they are multiple (child) cards, they should be merged
- Each card should have a ‘div’ around it
- Each block / list should also have a ‘div’ around it for formatting
Content:
- All content is written in Markdown
- The Markdown should be converted to HTML
Creating HTML pages
- I’ll discuss that with Peter
- The sections might be a little customized for each page
Images
