 ## Updating Show Information
 
-The `index.php` sidebar is driven by the database. Before a show, queue it on the admin dashboard (or `php cli/set_show.php <slug> <date> <time>`) with its date and Eastern start time; the sidebar then shows its icon, name, start time (with the UTC conversion) and description, switches to "On the Air Now" while live, and falls back to a short "nothing scheduled" note once nothing is queued. Edit descriptions and icons on the show's admin page.

 ## Planned Work
 
-- `index.php` will be reworked into more evergreen content (About, schedules, etc.) and will link to `live.php`. Until then, nothing on the site links to `live.php`.
+- `index.php` will be reworked into more evergreen content (About, schedules, etc.) and will link to `live.php` more prominently. For now, the only links to `live.php` are in the `index.php` sidebar while a show is live (the show icon and a "Broadcasting Live" link).
 - The admin backend will grow to manage more of the site.
