Hi Chelsey, 

Below is a list of bugs/fixes I found on the site based on all the new changes:

General Fixes:

1. Digest - Because Digest is going to include the date every time we update it in reverse chronological order, we need Neville to figure out how to remove the Standard date feature included in the post, or at least hide it. For regular posts the date should be there but for digest since we are including the date ourselves I do not think that the date should be there twice. 
1. Neville mentioned her could reduce the font size of the "metadata" for each post; so maybe he could remove the date feature from the Digest pages. 
2. Hyper Linking - We need to make sue everyone knows, especially any new recruits, that anytime you hyperlink something, it MUST open up in a new window. We need to make sure people are not led away from our website. Is there a way Neville could program this to be a default?
3. Watch - We need to have Neville remove the drop downs from the Watch Tab. All we want people to click on is the Watch tab itself and then they can sort from the main Watch page.
1. From Ashley - Can the description for the courtroom videos appear on the light box when you click on the video in addition to appearing on the main video page? Also, on the main Watch page, can Neville cap the amount of text that is shown?
4. About Us - When you click on About in the tab bar it leads to a blank page. That should lead directly to the About Us page. Also I don't see a Contact Us anywhere on the website. This might be something we need to look into.
5. Ads - When we put ads in the sidebar in-between the Hottest, Latest, and Off Hours there is a little divider line that separates the ad from the section. Can we make that line darker and also put it before AND after the ad? Right now it only shows up before the ad. 
6. Comments - Several people have expressed distaste for the Discus comment plug-in. Is there a different plug-in that we can use that won't require much information from the user prior to posting a comment?

Mobile Version:

Home:

1. Ads - The Ads test page looks good except I think the size of the ads should not be bigger than how the posts look. On the mobile version, when the ads are included with the content they could detract people away from the actual posts since some of them are bigger than actual posts. 

Join the Jury:

1. The videos in Join the Jury overlap on the mobile site. This needs to be looked at by Neville. 
2. The polling feature we are using is not very user-friendly. Is there a different plug-in that we can use that makes it easier for users to vote? Also, If you try to vote using your mobile device, it opens up a new window and asks you to log in to Facebook; can we disable this?
3. Are we still planning on doing "Create a Jury", and if so can Neville create a sample for us?
