The website is hosted by Ecobytes and has a Wordpress installation (admins are User:Eiland and User:Taborda
Till 2009 the website was static (some old version of the website can be found at [ecotopiabiketour.net/old]) Eiland made the first migration to wordpress. On 2012 User:Taborda made some changes on the design (we now use The Clear Line Theme) to make it more customizable without having to hard code, some plugins were also activated.
domain name registration
User:joao joao seems to be paying currently the domain name, and it is registered until 07 Apr 2012 14:35:06 [1]
- In July (2011??) we lost www.thebiketour.net which is now hijjacked
Wordpress website (the main site)
At the moment, the BT site runs on wordpress. The info here is only relevant for administrators of the website.
To become an editor of the website and be able to modify all texts, register yourself at http://www.ecotopiabiketour.net/wp/wp-login.php?action=register, and ask one of the coordinators to upgrade your account to the level of an "editor", on which level you can modify all texts. If you have questions, send them by mail to taborda at ecotopiabiketour dot net
Biketour has http://twitter.com/biketour and http://indenti.ca/biketour
From the road it is easy to update these accounts with an SMS to the twitter number (+44 762 4801423) but register the number first with the BT twitter, to instantly update the BT family with the latest campsite of BT.
However, Twitter has some issues with phone numbers from small countries, and this doesnt update identi.ca the free variant of twitter.
Therefore, BT can also use ping.fm, which spreads an sms to +447786208201 from a verified mobile number directly to Twitter, Identi.ca and the BT Facebook page.
The username for twitter and identi.ca is biketour. For ping.fm it is twitter@ecotopiabiketour.net
(taborda also thinks this is outdated)
To add your phone to our Twitter profile, follow these steps (source) :
- Send a text to +44 762 4801423 with the word START.
- Wait 2 minutes.
- Next, send your username biketour to +44 762 4801423. Do not use @ or quotes. Send our username ONLY.
- Wait 2 minutes after sending your username.
- Next, send our password to the same number. This is case sensitive, so be sure you are sending your password correctly.
- Wait 2 minutes.
- Finally, send the word OK to the same number.
Then, if everything went alright, you can send twitter updates to +44 762 4801423
