Also, right now on a phone size screen, the terms and about links pop out of the footer. It would be good to fix that when we add the above links.

Let us know if you need any help 🙂

This may be a dumb question (sorry in advance): do I make my own page with a footer & the social icons or is there already a page with the coded footer and I just write my code to that? Does that make sense?

I'm seeing a _footer.html.erb file at app/views/shared in the repository. But yeah, it took some time for me to get the lay of the land. I don't remember reading the file structure in any of the readme stuff -- it might be helpful, especially for a newbie who hasn't done anything like this before, if there's a file structure readme listing the purpose of each file. Otherwise, it might be good to include a path to the file you need to work on with each problem. Just a suggestion!

It took me a while to find and then re find the footer page. I will just edit that & hope all goes well. I still can't open the webpage in my browser though.

@mq-v What happens when you type rails server in your command window? What is the output?

Do you want to screen share on zoom and try to figure it out?

[mq-v]

Yes, please

the shorter one is from the website. the longer one is from the terminal. I don't know why ruby and rails won't update to the latest

Oh, I think you need to run the setup script. Try running bin/setup - does that script complete without errors for you? If so then you'll need to start a postgres server - I do this via

pg_ctl start -D /usr/local/var/postgres -l /dev/null

but that might vary by machine. Once you've created the database and started the server, then you can start the rails server (bin/rails s) and things should work.

Sorry that my responses have taken a little longer than usual. I had some family things going on and that is clearing up now, but I will be with family for holidays. I still would really like to find time to get on a Zoom call with you! If you email me at amandacrawfordalc@gmail.com, I can share my calendar with you and we can schedule a time 🙂
