Help

If you have one or more interviews, more media, clothes, posts, technical issues, more of the WordPress or eventually other CMS, HTML, CSS, PHP, MySQL, WordPress, Forum, corrections, map, ads, SEO, SEM, SMO, SMM or other social media (SoMe), then please help a lot. Please contact. I’m constantly looking for people who can contribute or collaborate in some way or other. You can contribute once, or regulary, it’s up to you. Newest PHP version, WordPress version and Database version and Google Analytics and Bing Webmaster. Initially I want to have various contributions at truemetal.org/cirithungol, now I have expanded it even more. Here are some ideas to contribute with:

Frontpage:

• Use the website! The easiest way to contribute is to use the forum and comment fields actively to engage more fans.
• Become a co-editor.
• Feed me with news. Tell me about any news so I can post them on the frontpage. If it’s just a small update, it will be posted in an appropriate page.
• Improve the website design.
• Correct or supply with any additional information to any part of this website. Also feel free to correct spelling error, bad language, proper structure etc.
• Become a photo album moderator. Add pictures, sort the photos in the gallery, add captions, approve/delete user comments, etc.
• Conduct interviews with any of the band members or other prominent/related people, like roadies, producers, collaborators, friends, etc.
• Find logos/frontpages for the rest of the interviews.
• More info on the covers and the lyrics.
• Create a page for literature CU has got inspiration from. You can create the page in Word if you like, and I’ll copy it into the website.
• A page for bands CU has got inspiration from.
• A page for bands who has got inspiration from CU.
• A page for instruments, tab and sheet with pics and info about the instruments CU used.
• A page for their live shows.
• A page for tour dates for related bands.
• A page for studios and/or the record labels.
• A page for timeline/history of Cirith Falcon. You may get inspiration from Black Sabbath timeline. It isn’t done on an afternoon, but you don’t have to do the whole page at once.
• A page for their producing, programmed, engineering, remixer, etc
• Add/edit pictures, especially on Elric and Conan, Moorcock, and so on.
• Watch out for new merch, new bootlegs, new cover songs, compilation album or movies containing tunes from Cirith Ungol or related, new tribute videos, upcoming live shows with any former member or session musician, CU in the press, and any other stuff you may come over.
• On plugin WP Table Builder on there are three different items with one emoji (icon) each of them: “Michael Whelan  illustrator”, “Michael Moorcock ✏️ writer” and “Cirith Ungol ⚔️ band”. Why can’t I have “illustrator” with emoji, but it works with “writer” and “band”? Have tried also with basic emoji. Or is it works all of the three, why can’t I small emoji, the same as font? Only the bigger emoji?
  Nb, it temporary works now with stylesheet: #wptb-table-id-30772 img.emoji {height: 15px;}
• Share with barcode/QR 🖹, print 🖨️, copy link 🔗, etc
• Dilemme of various SoMe and other links:
  • Facebook, Instagram, Threads, 𝕏 (Twitter), Youtube, MeWe, Pinterest, Telegram, Mastadon, MeWe, Minds, Tiktok, Steemit wallet, etc
  • Other pages: homepage, other page on Cirith Ungol Online, Wikipedia, Metal-Archives, Discogs, IMDb (movies), ISFDB/isfdb (science fiction), Amazon, eBay, other shops, etc.
• Dilemma with CPT posts (artists, bands, releases, editions, songs, venues, media). Some examples:
  • Is the artist Sarah Kitteringham, band Smoulder and the video Cassette Cult Tape Reviews: Cirith Ungol is the same post or two or three different posts?
  • In the fanzine Live Wire and Slayer Mag have it only on the artist Jon “Metalion” Kristiansen now, but I could have the post Live Wire and maybe Slayer Mag instead or in addition to Jon Kristiansen.
  • Is newspaper has it’s own post, or it is only image with text? Is the fanzine Suck City has one post, or many posts with it’s issues and dates?
  • Is Prophecy and Falcon more important on having more posts on artists, releases, editions, songs, venues and gigs, but Night Demon is less important? And what if Greg Lindstrom had quitted Falcon now and they have a new non CU guitar for their potential third album? On Prophecy is not exists on official website, but there is official website on Night Demon. So will I copy-paste (duplicate) from official page to this page, so all artists, releases, editions, songs, venues and gigs on Night Demon?
  • The band Mausoleum is related to CU, the band Vore is not related but the members are more or less the same, but on Mausoleum there are no pics and more or less no text, so use Vore instead.
  • The band Wicked Lester is related to Prophecy band. The band Sykotik Sinfoney is not quite the same members, but on Wicked Lester there are no pics and more or less no text, so use Sykotik Sinfoney instead.
  • Have all of the bands somehow related to CU, or not all, someone has many bands homage in the beginning?
  • What is the point of adding the professional photograph with Bob Carey, Cliff Montgomery, Erika Wallberg, Florian Hille, Greg Hazard, etc, where they have written on inner layout, but not adding professional photographer for they have other magazines?
  • Titanic (PJ, Rob, Greg, Jerry) has covered other band – e.g. Beatles. The question is the whole band page, the chapter or depends?
  • CU has thanked the band in the credits – e.g. Celtic Frost (and other stuff), Cathedral, Elvis Costello, Uriah Heep, Uli Jon Roth. The question is the whole band page, the chapter or depends?
  • CU has covered other band – e.g. Black Sabbath, Blue Cheer. The question is the whole band page, the chapter or depends?
  • other band has covered CU – e.g. Arkham Witch, Atonement. The question is the whole band page, the chapter or depends?
  • other band had supposed to covered CU – e.g. Atomkraft, Ironsword, Rigor Mortis. The question is the whole band page, the chapter or depends?
  • other band has thanked CU in the credits – e.g. Axevyper, Cathedral, Darkthrone, Herzel, Sarah Kitteringham from Smoulder, Nupraptor (cover). The question is the whole band page, the chapter or depends?
  • other band has thanked or other conversation with CU in the news – e.g. Mem Von Stein from Exumer, Nadsokor, Reverend Bizarre. The question is the whole band page, the chapter or depends?
  • other members has greeted CU or members – e.g. Betsy from Bitch, Erik Kluiber from Society 1, Thrust, Motorwulfe, Early Moods, Stryper (other thing), UDO. The question is the whole band page, the chapter or depends?
  • other members is wearing a CU t-shirt/clothing – e.g. The Budos Band, Down, HYD, Gates of Slumber. The question is the whole band page, the chapter or depends?
    Other members is greeted on Night Demon, and the 2 of the members are also the members of CU – e.g. Blind Guardian, Misfits, Riot V, Jaguar. The question is the whole band page, the chapter or depends?
  • related bands – e.g. Angry Samoans (P.J. Galligan), Prophecy (Barraza), Asylum (similar to Prophecy, but not Barraza), Dragonfly (similar to Prophecy, but not Barraza) Broken Silence (Green), Mausoleum (post Vore), Wicked Lester (post Sykotik Sinfoney), Soüp Hat (son of Tim Baker), Bang (other things), Guido from Axevyper. The question is the whole band page, the chapter or depends?
  • I have Elric and Conan comic media now. But I have a new artist Robert E. Howard who create Conan, and new media Conan novel and new artists and media on French with Elric? But that is almost the same on Wikipedia, but few lines is Ungol in addition.
• detailed timeline (and not a new custom posts)
• family tree with bands and artists
• More comprehensive on Google Maps, maps, setlist, technical crew, etc
• Mailing list. Had it in the old days (about ~2010).
• See example of the other bands: Bad Religion (great discography), Metallica (great style) and Black Sabbath Timeline (great resource for information).
• Statistics on most types of these:
  • how many gigs they have played live? scale from one song on all concerts. E.g. all fans they like Join the Legion so they have played multiple times. But no fans are liking e.g. The Troll, so the CU skipped The Troll on gigs.
  • how many various artists of the song?
  • how many covers they play one song?
  • Lyrical content of CU songs – pie diagram
  • etc
• What can I add to the post (artists, bands, releases, songs, gigs/venues, media, merch and/or misc) and what can I just have the content? Example: I have the band Loudness, but The Budos Band is only mentioned on Homage. On Lord of the Rings, is it enough with one link (with JRR Tolkien), or I must have author and several Lord of the Rings books? For I have several books on Moorcock. It is dilemma.
• Facebook (or IG/X) embed from other people, group or page: they works now, but later someone has disabled, private or delete embed. Or Meta/X has changed to new embed, and CU Online have outdated codes. That’s a dilemma.
• Trying to avoid duplications on discogs and metal-archives on the editions.
• Sticker or other things.
• Experiment with Reddit, Quora, Fandom, WP wiki, MediaWiki or other alternatives.
• Buggy search:

Backpage:

• Ads, f.ex. Google ads, Microsoft ads, X/Twitter ads, Meta ads, MetalSucks ads, Ultimate Classic Rock ads, Loudwire ads, MetalInjection ads, etc
• Working on making the website even better and faster
  • Theme is hestia-child, derived from Hestia from Sep 2018.
  • Deleted rest of the inactive themes and inactive plugins.
  • Most of it using webp instead of the other image (jpeg, png, bmp, etc).
  • Database MySQL: Type InnoDB engine with Collation utf8mb4_unicode_520_ci/utf8mb4_0900 (or latest Unicode) and optimize tables.
    Exceptions there are Type MyISAM engine on the forum phpBB (forums), but I guess that enginee is both sides – positive and negative.
• Not work on header Anniversary: $args = ['anniversary' => 0]; get_template_part('template-parts/anniversary', null, $args); on index.php and $args['anniversary']; on anniversary.php does not work yet.
• set_transient and get_transient on anniversary does not work yet.
• Feed (RSS and Atom) does not have <description> yet. Syntax: https://cirithungol.org/(post-id)/feed.
• Each CPT with it’s each “dmy” (date-month-year) code. I want to have only one function dmy (probably functions.php).
• There are “dmy”, “my”, “y” and “empty” in the code. Want to expand “d”, “m”, “dy” and “dm” in addition. Also I want to have one function with dmy, not slightly different functions on the CPTs, as I have it now.
• On release, there is 1. Credits with artist, optional link, and 2. there is also Artists with link. So two times on this artist, unfortunately.
  • Pods: Release:
  • Label: Credits (#1)
  • Field Type: WYSIWYG (or Plain Text)
  • Label: Artists (#2)
  • Field Type: Relationship
  • Related Type: Artists (artist)
  • Bi-directional Field: On release (on_releases)
• Frontside on mobile, it might have some days later on Anniversary. Example, the date was now 22 January, but mobile on frontside it is still 19 January. See LiteSpeed Cache.
• On mobile, top is it white background, and under it is normal background.
• Can’t click on tablet when I search something
• bing.com/webmasters: “Large number of pages pointing to the same canonical URL for domain cirithungol.org”, and also various warnings on search.google.com.
• Standardized form, ex. <blockquote>, <quote>, <q>, <cite>, signature, date, header, image, etc
• Various quotes, ex.: “, ‘, ´, `, “…”, «…», etc, so try to fix it.
• Want to have all links in one popups. Now it is link something on Wikipedia, Discogs, Metal-Archive, isfdb, IMDb, Amazon, eBay, SoMe and/or website etc.
• Link management tools/SoMe reference landing page ex. linktr.ee, Milkshake, Taplink or similar. See example of Streaming there for now.
• Advertisement/sponsor of i.e. Google, Facebook, Instagram, Spotify, Tiktok, Snapchat, X (Twitter), Youtube, etc
• Sort T-shirts and other merchandise, or eventually WooCommerce or similar.
• Check for bug (error, warning, notification) on the DevTools (Bug on Javascript console on frontpage), Site Health, /public_html/error_log, /public_html/wp-content/debug.log, search.google.com, bing.com/webmasters, etc. And get rid of the cracks and injection on cirithungol.org and truemetal.org
• Cover, haven’t solved it yet. i.e. is it now:
  • title=”Nadsokor” (or various title, an example “Nadsokor (Cirith Ungol cover)” ?)
  • permalink=”/song/nadsokor-rigor-mortis/” (or various permalink)
  • Custom Fields -> Originally performed by = “Cirith Ungol”
  • Custom Fields -> Original version = “Nadsokor” ‎(or various custom fields. Note, now there are tons of “Nadsokor”, and most probably I have “Nadsokor” on wrong band on the first time)
• Develop child theme code on WordPress .
  • On Custom Post I have written this”https://www.test.com/cu/” on More Fields, and clicked “Update”, cut out the extra characters they added “:” and “?#” on website, “https://www.test.com:/cu/?#“.Pods Admin -> (Custom Post Type) -> More Fields -> Field Type: Website on plugin Pods.
• On Custom Post Type -> Edition, there is __ERROR__ almost always on Release on More Fields, if I forget it every time.
• In the future: experiment with other programming language with excellent result. CMS (Drupal, etc), web development framework (Next.js, Nuxt.js, Angular, React, Vue.js, etc), database (MongoDB, PostgreSQL, etc), and so on.
• Even more faster and better mobile. Similar to Google AMP, Android Play Store app and News, Apple iPhone/iPad App Store and News, FB Instant Articles and other projects. Example:
  

  Add Speed reader with metadata, author, readtime, show_original, etc
