Contributing to the code base for the plugins
All,
I recently made a local copy of the uua-congregation theme, so we could add Zoom to the Social Media widget, as we have static zoom link, and offer Zoom access to every service.
I also did some debugging on the upcoming services page in the uua-services plugin to look into an issue we are facing. Every upcoming service post contains a link to Zoom, and while the link is clickable on the service description itself, it was not clickable on the upcoming-services page. The issue seems to be that we are not setting an ‘excerpt’ for the post, so it is using the post content, and not linkifying the content. If we set the excerpt manually, and include the html to make the link, it works as expected. I will be looking into adjusting that to better suit our workflow.
All of that said — how do I get contributor access to the repo, so I can contribute my changes upstream — both to be a good citizen of the community, and to avoid getting my changes wiped out when upstream releases a new version.
Thanks!
