[Infrastructure] Ballots Page Udpated

Hi Ben,

It looks as if Ballot SC16 is missing the ballot# metadata, as it’s showing at the top of the list if you sort by the Ballot column.

That's a good idea. I've now done that.  As to Dean's comment, we could create multiple tables - one for each of the Working Groups and one for the Forum.

Thanks Ben. Can the table sort by effective date descending by default? I suspect folks would like to see the newest ballots at the top..

Thanks. I wonder if there is any way to split out and display separately the ballots from the different CWGs. I know you can sort that column but would be nice to have them broken out into different displays.

All,
Over the weekend, I updated the Ballots page<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/cabforum.org/ballots/__;!!AaIhyw!7eSPG0DA6hYoXrh1E5-YsFOqxo7Ag3uw6Z6Ey3IbgBOXLgMmZ9ZMil0D0bjEP-X3YA$> with a WordPress Plugin (Posts Table Pro) that will make it easier to update and maintain the Ballots table. I am still tweaking it, but please have a look and see if anything has been missed or is incorrect. Then we will move the other tables to a ballots archive page.
Going forward, when a new ballot is voted upon, instead of having to maintain the table on the ballots page, you will just need to add two custom fields to the post. One is the ballot number, the other will either be the effective date or the status (to indicate whether quorum failed on the vote, whether the ballot was withdrawn, or whether it failed). I will write up instructions on how to do this.
Please provide your questions or comments here or on Slack in the #website channel.
Thanks,
Ben
