GrottoCenter Blog

This is the YouTube channel of the Wikicaves association. You will find 7 short videos made by Florence to present how to use the BBS on Grottocenter. In a few days you will also be able to know the history of the BBS, discover the available documentation as well as the platform to request new features or report a bug https://www.youtube.com/@WikicavesOrg

URLs are now clickable on Grottocenter. This makes it easier to access external resources. Thanks to Vincent for this new feature

With the UIS Bbibliography and Informatic commissions and the Belgian associations Speleo J, UBS and the Namur speleology house, we have requested a grant from the UIS Bureau in order to set up tools to automate the exchange of data and files between speleology documentation centers. We have just received a favorable response, the UIS asking for its logo to be on the Grottocenter home page given its repeated support for Grottocenter. Vincent has just set up this logo which allows us to communicate on the solid and long-standing relations between the UIS and the Wikicaves association

The BBS contains many duplicates concerning authors. In order to offer a better service Vincent has developed a service that allows to delete authors or to merge them with another account corresponding to the same author. We now have a set of tools that will simplify the work of moderators

Vincent has just transferred the database from the AWS infrastructure to the Azure infrastructure. This allows us to benefit from a more efficient service with more processors and to better distribute our services on these two infrastructures
