Notes
We are making updates to the logos and testimonials listed on the ISLG non-members pages. We are adding the following logos to the homepage under the ORGANIZATIONS THAT USE ISLG: http://dev.investorstatelawguide.com/
Monica Martinez, Monolab Monica , the logos need to be greyed out to match the existing logos on the page. Could you please make the necessary modifications.

We are also updating the testimonials listed on the Homepage and About us page. For the homepage: http://dev.investorstatelawguide.com/, could we please add the following testimonials:

“An invaluable resource for our investment arbitration practice.” 
Markus Burgstaller, Partner, Hogan Lovells International LLP

“ISLG is a phenomenal tool. It basically does the research for you! Powerful and easy to use, it makes getting to right answer much quicker. I love that there are so many ways to conduct research (by topic, rules, treaty, case). The subject-matter navigator is particularly useful at providing an overview of the case law regarding a specific issue. Highly recommended!” 
Elisa Botero, Associate, Curtis, Mallet-Prevost, Colt & Mosle LLP
“ISLG is an unparalleled database database of primary materials in investor state law and is supported by a powerful search engine. It is useful to practitioners and academics alike and equally practical for new and seasoned users. The lack of secondary material and the focus on primary sources focuses the mind to what really matters. Even when I have conducted my own independent research I always double-check with the ISLG database.” 
Professor Loukas Mistelis, Director, School of International Arbitration, Centre for Commerical Law Studies, Queen Mary University of London


For the About Use page: http://dev.investorstatelawguide.com/about-islg, we are adding the following testimonials: 

“Quite simply, the leading resource for investor-state law.” 
John Templeman, Counsel, King & Spalding LLP
“With its intuitive interface and specific research tools, including the subject-matter navigator and the jurisprudence citator, ISLG has revolutionized the way we do research in connection with investor-State disputes.  It is now indispensable to professionals in the field.” 
Noor Davies, Associate, White & Case LLP
“Investor-State LawGuide is one of the main databases about foreign direct investment in combination with international arbitration on the Peace Palace Library website.  ISLG is very useful in finding ICSID awards and bilateral investment treaties (Full-text).  The refinement options in searching result in a perfect navigation through the guide and the annotations are the final touch.” 
Raymond Ridderhof, International, Comparative and Foreign Law Librarian, Peace Palace University

Monica Martinez, Monolab Monica , could you please modify the logos and headshots to match the format we're currently using for testimonials.

Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh and Jitesh Dhuravala, DevIT Jitesh ,  when we have the updated images back from Monica Martinez, Monolab Monica , could you please add the testimonials to the homepage and about us pages on dev.islg.

Thanks,

Thanks,

Hi, I saw some colour portraits on the home page so I assumed you didn't need me to.
Morgan Maguire, CEO
Hi Monica Martinez, Monolab Monica ,

Yes, they are in colour, but we need to have the images cropped into a circle as was done previously. Would it be possible for you to do this? 

Thanks,

Morgan
Monica Martinez, Monolab
Yes, no problem. I'll send them tomorrow morning, ok?
Morgan Maguire, CEO
Sure. Thanks Monica Martinez, Monolab Monica .

Sorry about the delay, Morgan. I got sidetracked with another project.

Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT
Hi Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan and Monica Martinez, Monolab Monica ,

Hi Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin ,

If we are going to add more than 3 testimonials in home page and about us page then testimonials slider card is not working properly.  Please refer following screenshot and do needful.

Morgan Maguire, CEO
Hi Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin and Savannah Mitchell, Project Manager at Industrial Savannah ,

Further to Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh 's comment above about the logos being too big (in addition to to the testimonials display issue), could you please provide us with some parameters on the size of images for this section of the page. Also, perhaps it's easier to have you resize and reformat the images going forward since you understand the technical requirements.

Thanks,

Morgan
Savannah Mitchell, Project Manager at Industrial
Hi Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan

The size is 96x96. Going forward, it's not a problem for us to resize/reformat the images.

Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan , We have updated logos under Organization tab on dev.islg.

Morgan Maguire, CEO
Hi Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh ,

Further to my instructions above, I want the logos and testimonials to display in a certain order when the page is first loaded. Currently, the logos under ORGANIZATION THAT USE ISLG displays as follows when the page first loads:

But I asked for the logos to be displayed as follows:

In addition, the White & Case logo should be displayed when viewed on a mobile device:

Also, please ensure my instructions on ordering the testimonials is followed as well when Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin assists you with adding additional testimonials. 

Thanks,

Morgan
Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT

Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT
Hi Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan ,

We have assigned appropriate link to logos on dev.islg. Please check and confirm.
Kevin Andrews, Industrial
Hi Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh

For the testimonial slider design, it is unable to accommodate 3 testimonials.

An alternate solution if Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan is open to it would be to randomize which 3 testimonials appear on page load from the full pool of testimonials. Otherwise we would need to come up with an alternate design solution.
Morgan Maguire, CEO
Hi Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh ,

The logo links look good.

Hi Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin ,

Let's go with a redesign. I would like to incorporate all the testimonials as requested above (and in the order I've specified). Would it be possible to create something similar to the logos above where all the testimonials can be scrolled through (or selected with the dots below)?

Thanks,

Morgan

Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh

The new testimonial design has been built and can be previewed here.: http://tologix-islg-html.s3-website.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com/

It should now allow an endless number of testimonials.

Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh please find attached the updated CSS and JS required to implement the new design. The HTML will have to be updated aswell, please used the link above to get a preview of the HTML.

Morgan Maguire, CEO
Looks good to me Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin . Thank you.

Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh , let us know if you need anything else to implement the updated design.

Thanks,

Morgan 
Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT

Hi Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan and Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin ,

We have updated the testimonials of home page on dev.islg. If it will be OK then we will do same process for About Us Page.

 Please check and let us know the feedback.
Kevin Andrews, Industrial
Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh  

With the varying lengths in the testimonials the design doesn't look great, I'm investigating ways to make it look better and will post an update here.
Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT
OK Thanks Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin .
Morgan Maguire, CEO
Hi Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin ,

I'm not a fan that only one testimonial is presented in the updated design. Is there a way to resolve the issue while presenting more than one testimonial on the page? Could we create something similar to the original design with the rotating cards, but can accommodate more than three testimonials?

Thanks,

Morgan 
Morgan Maguire, CEO
Hi Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin ,

When I say original, I'm referring to version currently on www.islg.



This seemed to accommodate varying amounts of text. Can we modify this to make is accommodate more than 3 testimonials?

Thanks,

Morgan
Kevin Andrews, Industrial
Hi Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan ,

I apologize for the delay. I have updated this page with an updated slider based on the original design with the ability to accommodate unlimited testimonials of varying lengths. http://tologix-islg-html.s3-website.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com/

The HTML structure had to change again so the updates will require uploading these files as well as updating the markup to match my example page
Morgan Maguire, CEO
Hi Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin ,

The changes look good; however, is it possible to make the slider cards longer horizontally, rather than vertically (similar to before):

Before: 
Now: 
I find it easier to read, and it looks better with a wider screen.

Thanks,

Morgan
Morgan Maguire, CEO
Hi Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin ,

This works. Thanks for making the change.

Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh , could you please make the updates on dev.islg. Also, please ensure the ordering and alignment follow my instructions above.
 
Thanks,

Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT
Hi Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan and Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin ,

We have updated testimonials on both home and about us page on dev.islg.
Please check and let us know the feedback. (http://dev.investorstatelawguide.com/)
Morgan Maguire, CEO
Hi Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh and Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin ,

Looks pretty good, but two outstanding issues:

1.  The testimonial cards are presented in the appropriate order, but I do not like how it loads the page on the first card rather than the third as instructed above:
dev.islg
www.islg

Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh , please change the order of the cards as instructed below, and have the default card be the third card:



2. Part of the text is cut-off when viewing the testimonial on a mobile device (see screenshot below). Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin , I assume this might be an issue with the HTML template:

Thanks,

Morgan 
Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT
Hi Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin ,

Please do needful to adjust the cut-off text from testimonials and also please guide us how to set default card as third position rather then first.
Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT
Thanks Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin ..

Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan , We have resolved above both issues (text cutting and set default card as third position) on dev.islg.

Please check and let us know the feedback.
Morgan Maguire, CEO
Looks great Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh .

Liam Murphy-Burke, Strategic Account Manager at ISLG Liam , can you please take a look through the homepage and about us page on dev.islg to make sure everything is in order (please copy edit as well), and assuming everything is ok, we'll migrate the update to www.islg on Tuesday next week.
 
Thanks,

Morgan 
Liam Murphy-Burke, Strategic Account Manager at ISLG
Hi Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan and Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh ,

I noted a couple of things:

  1. When you move from Loukas Mistelis testimonial to Elisa Botero's on the homepage, the testimonial bubble "pops" up to the forefront.  This issue also occurs on the about page, when moving from Cam's testimonial to Raymond's on the about page. See https://islg.egnyte.com/dl/1qSafLcsZA/
  2. I noticed we do not have a title for Marci Hoffman, not sure if we want to add it for consistency.
  3. Noor Davies testimonial uses "investor-State", whereas John Templeman's uses "investor-state", we should be consistent with capitalization and have the s lowercase in Noor's.
  4. Loukas Mistelis testimonial has a repeat of the word database in the first line of text.
Other than that, it looks good to me.

Thanks,

Liam
Morgan Maguire, CEO
Hi Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh ,

Please implement all the changes pointed out by Liam Murphy-Burke, Strategic Account Manager at ISLG Liam above. Note that Marci Hoffman's title is on www.islg: Lecturer in Residence and Associate Director, Berkeley Law Library

Thanks,

Morgan
Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT
Hi Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan and Paul Moon Paul ,

We have resolved all issued except first one on dev.islg. Please check and confirm.

For First bubble point issue, As per our html structure Elisa Botero's is always display on first bubble because we have default set 3rd bubble when the page is loading first time.

Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin and Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan , Please provide your inputs on first issue.
Kevin Andrews, Industrial
Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh  

To fix the "pop" issue please add a transition delay to the testimonials in your CSS.

.testimonial{
  transition-delay:0.4s;

Further to the video below, there is a discrepancy in the way the testimonials are getting displayed between dev.islg and www.islg for mobile devices. Could you please ensure www.islg displays the way it does on dev.islg.

Thanks,

Morgan 
Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT
Hi Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan ,

I have checked testimonials on mobile device and it is working fine on both dev.islg and www.islg.

Kevin Andrews, Industrial Kevin and Ryan Knuth, Customer Support Manager at Industrial Ryan , Could you please check and let us know the feedback ?

Ryan Knuth, Customer Support Manager at Industrial
Hi Morgan Maguire, CEO Morgan and Harsh Parikh, Tech Lead at DevIT Harsh  

I've run tests on a few different mobile devices and I'm not seeing the same issue. Morgan, I suspect it's cache-related. Could you please try refreshing a few times, or if you are able to manually clear it through your settings? If you're still experiencing the same issue then please let me know the Model and OS of your phone and I can try matching it exactly in the emulator.

Thanks!

Ryan
Morgan Maguire, CEO
Ok. Looks like it's working now. I'll make the to-do complete again.
