==Project Docs - Temporary Playground==
* [[User:Cognifloyd/LDSTools for Android Architecture]]

==Design documentation==
The purpose of LDSTech includes helping people to "Learn about how the Church is using technology" and "Contribute to Church technology projects". Learning about what is already developed will help community members to contribute more effectively and reuse existing projects. In these pages, I am trying to help people understand the design of various church products/websites and how they can reuse or include the design in the community projects. Please enjoy this documentation, tear it apart (to make it better), and help me to fill in the blanks. Discussion is welcome!

* [[User:Cognifloyd/Design of lds.org]]

===ToDo===
Here's some of the documentation I would like to create or see made available to the community.

# Document how to use/integrate with various apps (and other parts of lds.org) in other community projects. Note that there is already some great docs for [[Community Services List of Services|many of these services]]. The docs may need to be expanded (possibly here instead of there) to take into account the visual design of some parts of lds.org.

Cognifloyd: /* Changing Username */ new section

Could you update the [[MLS export language dependencies]] excel spreadsheet and do you happen to also have the equivalent to the "&" english character used in the different foreign languages for the HT household name (it combines the husband and wife in english using the & character). I am working on the Ward Tools application for a Blackberry Edition and need this to help make it multi-lingual. -- [[User:Awilbourn|Awilbourn]] 22:12, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

: I'll try to update the spreadsheet in the next week or so. But regarding your specific question, I can tell you that the household name (whether for Home Teaching or anywhere else) seems to use the ampersand (&) to connect husband and wife in every language, even languages such as Chinese and Japanese. I really doubt that it is correct in all those languages to use an ampersand, but that particular character doesn't seem to be localized in the current versions of MLS. -- [[User:Aebrown|Aebrown]] 04:01, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

: I have uploaded a new version of [[File:MLS-Export-Languages.xls]] that now corresponds to MLS 3.1.5. -- [[User:Aebrown|Aebrown]] 22:08, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

== User:Techgurufloyd/Design of lds.org ==

I liked the edits you did on [[User:Techgurufloyd/Design of lds.org]]. Feel free to do more on the page itself. Also, I would love your input on a question I put up in [[User talk:Techgurufloyd/Design of lds.org]]. Thanks. --[[User:Techgurufloyd|Techgurufloyd]] 15:46, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

== [[User:Brumfieldad]]/Gospel Library Support Page ==

The new support page we created [[Gospel_Library_Support]] is intended to be a more mobile and user friendly URL. It currently only has iPhone info but I plan to edit it in the near future to also point to the other platforms. If you have other suggestions on how to improve please let me know. Thanks for your help!

: That redirect page has now been deleted. You are clearly not monitoring your user talk page, so maybe you'll see this message. I left a full explanation on [[User talk:Brumfieldad|your user page]]. -- [[User:Aebrown|Aebrown]] 02:14, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

== Changing Username ==

So, I changed my ldsaccount from techgurufloyd to cognifloyd. Is there a way to change the username for my account here in the wiki? I'd like to be attached to all of my old contributions, and especially my watch list. Is there anything you can do?
