CorbettReport is being published on Qortal to accomplish two important objectives:
First, is providing CorbettReport with a permanent/unstoppable Qortal website with easy/safe visitor access and no domain, hosting or media server fees.
Second, is attracting CorbettReport's very large audience to Qortal, boosting adoption of this amazing new platform.
This site now includes nearly all content from The Best Of Corbett Report and Open Source Education, plus recent content from CorbettReport.com.
You can follow CorbettReport's Q-Tube channel to support it with a copy of all CorbettReport videos on your Qortal node, thereby helping all visitors to have faster downloading.
A combined effort of CorbettReport supporters to add Audio and archives is proposed below to complete CorbettReport on Qortal.
If you're not a coder and would like to help, you can easily DONATE QORT to the cause with a SuperLike at any of the Q-Tube videos included in CorbettReport on Qortal. All donations will go to coders helping complete this website, with the remainder then going to the Qortal Development Team. With each SuperLike you can also make a direct contribution to the dev team.
Are you a coder interested in helping to accomplish these?
If so, please Q-Mail CorbettReport on Qortal. Thanks.

Qortal has an amazing GooTube replacement Q-App named Q-Tube. CorbettReport is using it as a free media server for all video content. Qortal Seth will soon be finished with currently foreseen Q-Tube updates. When he's finished, it should be relatively straight forward to fork Q-Tube for publishing mp3 audio content, each having it's own Qortal link to be used in the web pages. Seth is documenting how many of these changes are accomplished in Coding Sessions as user Qortal Programmer. On Qortal at qortal://APP/Q-Tube/channel/Qortal%20Programmer these can all be viewed. If' you're not one of the very few with Q-App coding skills, you can become among the first in this new coding frontier for a completely new internet.
Script to publish a new newsletter article in Qortal, imported from CorbettReport.com
Each new article/newsletter page from CorbettReport.com/folder/ will be published in the site at qortal://WEBSITE/CorbettReport/category/articles/folder/index.html
New article pages at CorbettReport.com provide:
CorbettReport.com page URL (source)
Title text - also in <head> text
Date
Category: newsletter is used for all
Article title image
Page decription - between title image and Corbett Report Subscriber image used for all
Body text with images and audio/video embeds between the Corbett Report Subscriber image and "Comments" after the article.
Keywords/Tags (maybe)
<head> will include for search:
<title>Title text</title>
<meta name="description" content="Page description text" />
<meta name="date.created" content="yyyy-mm-dd">
Possibly, <meta name="keywords" content="tags, text"/>
Header and footer are standard from a template page
Audio/video embeds will be replaced with links to them published on Q-Tube or the new audio fork of it, with links back to the article.
Connect the new page's CorbettReport.com links to corresponding Qortal:// links already published on Qortal. I have a shell script for this.
For flashback episodes, in everything already on Qortal, connect CorbettReport.com links to corresponding Qortal:// link. I have a shell script for this.
The new page will be featured and listed on the Home page and the newsletter page.
A CorbettReport.com membership will be provided for access to all newsletter articles without going to another domain.
Notes: It's possible that all links will continue needing to be absolute (including qortal://) to be reliable.
Pages need to be kept as small as possible to keep their combined size small for faster downloading of the entire CorbettReport website.
Script to add all remaining articles to a new Qortal CorbettReport articles archive website
Similar to the new single newsletter article page publishing program described above with these exceptions:
Access and scrape all prior articles with the same format. Older formats may require a different program in a future phase of work.
These will be published in multiple archive Qortal websites, each small enough to allow fast downloading of the entire archive site.
Each will be added to some archive pages within the main website which list and link to the old newsletter articles, preferably in publish date order.
Script to build a new Qortal web page from a new audio/video episode page on CorbettReport.com
Each new page from CorbettReport.com/folder/ will be published in the site at qortal://WEBSITE/CorbettReport/category/subcategory/folder/index.html with the category from the new page (podcasts, interviews, solutions, etc)
New audio/video episode pages at CorbettReport.com contain:
CorbettReport.com page URL
Title text - also in <head> text
Date
Categories: articles, podcasts, solutions, interviews, etc.
Page short description
Audio mp3 URL
Video mp4 URL
Video poster - available from Home page until next post, scale to 360p
Body text between the "Watch on" line and "Comments".
Keywords/Tags (maybe)

Video poster 360p image URL
<head> will include for search:
<title>Title text</title>
<meta name="description" content="Page description text" />
<meta name="date.created" content="yyyy-mm-dd">
Possibly, <meta name="keywords" content="tags, text"/>
Header and footer are standard from a template page
The new page will be featured and listed on the Home page, the category list page and the videos or radio (audio only) page.
Connect the new page's CorbettReport.com links to corresponding Qortal:// links already published on Qortal. I have a shell script for this.
For flashback episodes, in everything already on Qortal, connect CorbettReport.com links to corresponding Qortal:// link. I have a shell script for this.
The program will publish videos and audios on Q-Tube and it's new audio fork, respectively, with their urls linked in the new web page. The Q-Tube and audio fork pubication descriptions will link back to the web page.
Script to add all remaining audio/video episodes to new CorbettReport archive website
Similar to the new single audio/video episode page publishing program described above with these exceptions:
Access and scrape all prior articles with the same format. Older formats may require a different program in a future phase of work.
These will be published in multiple archive Qortal websites, each small enough to allow fast downloading of the entire archive site.
