Redmine CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #11482 (Resolved): Page Authors on Sites create with templatehttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/114822019-05-21T15:31:04ZLaurie Hurson
<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>When people select a site template (teaching, portfolio) during the creation process, the authors of the pages and posts on the newly created site are Luke, Paul Hebert, and I because we created the original templates. Is there a way to make the Commons Admin account the default author on the pages and posts of new sites that are created using the template?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #11415 (Abandoned): Blog Subscriptions in Jetpackhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/114152019-05-01T15:10:01ZLaurie Hurson
<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>On the TLC blog Visible Pedagogy (<a class="external" href="https://vp.commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://vp.commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a>) we use Jetpack's blog subscription to give readers the option to sign up to receive new posts via email. It appears the subscription feature is not working since our 40 subscribers did not receive the most recent posts via email.</p>
<p>I recently connected Jetpack to my WP.com account but I think this feature should work without that connection set up. Other than that, I couldn't see anything the back end to indicate why this isn't working. Any ideas what might be causing this bug?</p>

<p>Faculty members using the Reckoning plugin have noticed that they are unable to view the full summary of single user information.</p>
<p>When in User>User Summary there is a list of all site users with summarized content (screenshot1). Username should link to a page with all full length content in one page (screenshot 2 form B@B because unavailable on CAC). The username link is not working. When clicked it appears to load but then just defaults to the original user summary page. Issue is not allowing admins to view full length content.</p>

<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>Marilyn is incorrectly listed as the instructor for the course "HIS127 Microhistories: Latin America" (screenshot 1) on page three of the courses tab (<a class="external" href="https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/courses/page/3/">https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/courses/page/3/</a>). She is an admin for the group but she shouldn't be listed as an instructor. Is there any indication as to why the system is pulling her name as the instructor? I don;t think we want all admins on sites/groups listed as instructors since this would be misleading.</p>
<p>I tried to correct this through the courses backend (<a class="external" href="https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=cac_course&paged=2">https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=cac_course&paged=2</a>) but for some reason I cannot see any information associated with this course (screenshot 2).</p>
<p>Somewhat unrelated: is it possible to sort the courses by semester or date added? When displayed alphabetically (as it is now) the same courses consistently appear on the first page.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #11023 (Resolved): Teaching Template Sites: Posts return 404 Errorhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/110232019-01-28T16:11:29ZLaurie Hurson
<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>Following up on this zen desk ticket: <a class="external" href="https://cunycommons.zendesk.com/agent/tickets/2807">https://cunycommons.zendesk.com/agent/tickets/2807</a></p>
<p>When a Commons user sets up a new site using the teaching template, clicking into posts from the blog roll results in a 404 error. The teaching template comes with a static "home" page setup and posts re-routed to a page called posts. Luke has found that visiting Settings>Permalinks on a teaching template site will resolve the 404 error.</p>
<p>I was able to recreate this issue in the site linked below and I have not visited Settings>Permalinks so the error is not resolved.</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://testing404.commons.gc.cuny.edu/posts/">https://testing404.commons.gc.cuny.edu/posts/</a></p>
<p>Also, can we add Luke as a watcher here? (I am not able to add watchers.)</p>
<p>Thanks!<br />Laurie</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #10952 (Resolved): Duplicate privacy options in group-site creationhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/109522019-01-14T17:39:23ZLaurie Hurson
<p>During the group creation process, in step #3 when "enable group site" is selected, it creates double privacy option settings for the linked site (screenshot below). A selection cannot be made for both sections, users can only select 1 of the 10 options. So it appears that the selection component is working correctly but the privacy section should only appear once.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #10700 (Resolved): White screen: page not loading/renderinghttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/107002018-11-13T22:25:59ZLaurie Hurson

<p>Several faculty participating in the OER Fellows program to run their courses on the Commons did not want to setup a group and therefore wanted to send students emails through their course site. They attempted to use the email users plugin but it appears the plugin is not sending emails correctly.</p>
<p>The plugin has two methods of sending email, to individuals or to groups. Through the Individual send area an Admin can select multiple individuals. Through the Group send area, an Admin can choose a group to send to based on user roles on the site (i.e. Author, Editor, etc). Several issues have been reported from faculty using this plugin.</p>
<p>In the individual area, when several users are selected (using crtl key) only some students receive the email. The faculty members confirm this because once the email is "sent" the plugin reports that the email has been sent to 23 of 25 users. This has happened on the following sites:</p>
<pre><code><a class="external" href="https://bmccsoc124.commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://bmccsoc124.commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a> -- 23 of 25 student Authors receive email<br /> <a class="external" href="https://bmccsoc144.commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://bmccsoc144.commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a> -- 16 of 25 student Authors received email.<br /><a class="external" href="https://soc100munshi.commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://soc100munshi.commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a> -- Students are subscribers, only half received emails</code></pre>
<p>In the group send area, often user role types are missing from the list of groups to send emails to. This has happened on the following sites:</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://bmccsoc091.commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://bmccsoc091.commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a> -- Author Role missing from Group area<br /><a class="external" href="https://bmccasnmunshi.commons.gc.cuny.edu">https://bmccasnmunshi.commons.gc.cuny.edu</a> --Author role missing from group area<br /><a class="external" href="https://freequeercuny.commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://freequeercuny.commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a> -- Author role missing from group area</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #9137 (Resolved): Already existing site not appearing to link (couple...https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/91372018-01-29T20:36:38ZLaurie Hurson
<p>A commons user is trying to link already existing site to a group (links below). However, when in the group area and attempting to link the site to the group, the site does not appear in list of options (screenshot attached).</p>
<p>The group is private but the site is listed as public.</p>

<p>Hi Boone,</p>
<p>As you know, the past Hypothesis issue was resolved by clarifying that hypothesis only works on Media Library PDFs if the site visibility is listed as public.</p>
<p>I am having issues with Hypothesis not running on PDFs on a publicly visible site here: <a class="external" href="https://anasar.commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://anasar.commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a></p>
<p>Specifically, the PDFs are on this page are not working: <a class="external" href="https://anasar.commons.gc.cuny.edu/mat-216-course-materials/">https://anasar.commons.gc.cuny.edu/mat-216-course-materials/</a> .</p>
<p>I'm not sure if its because the PDFs are so big? Or because they originally had hyperlinks embedded within them (as anchors tags)? I also noticed that the PDF URLs include a /blogs.dir/ element and I'm not sure if that (or some URL issue) is causing an problem?</p>
<p>Sorry if this is a simple front-end-ish fix that I am just missing.</p>
<p>Thanks in advance for you help.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #8944 (Resolved): Hypothesis Plugin not working on media library PDFshttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/89442017-11-28T16:41:33ZLaurie Hurson
<p>The hypothesis plugin (<a class="external" href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/hypothesis/">https://wordpress.org/plugins/hypothesis/</a>) allows Commons users to annotate pages, posts, and PDFs on the commons site. Several faculty members who will be using the Commons for teaching next spring have expressed interest in using this plugin to annotate pdfs on their course sites.</p>
<p>On each page or post, a menu should/will pop out to allow for highlights and annotations. In the backend, admins can select to have the plugin run on PDFs in the media library. However, it appears that this feature does not work on PDFs uploaded to a Commons site's media library. I have been testing this on <a class="external" href="https://coursetest.commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://coursetest.commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a></p>
<p>I am not sure if this is a commons firewall issue but the plugin doesn't seem to work for PDFs on public or private sites.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #8746 (Resolved): Site Creation - additional Privacy Settings https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/87462017-09-27T19:57:15ZLaurie Hurson
<p>Additional privacy settings are generated during site creation process when no site domain and site title are entered.</p>
<p>If you leave site domain and title blank or there is an issue with naming conventions (any privacy setting selected) and Click "Create site" you are sent to a new page with error message and must re-do. (screen 1)</p>
<p>However on this new page, new privacy settings are available "Privacy: I would like my site to appear in search engines, and in public listings around this network" [Buttons Yes -- No]" (screen 2)</p>
<p>Additional privacy settings are confusing and unnecessary. Furthermore, if a user then selects "No" (as is the case with "https://unionsfall17.commons.gc.cuny.edu/") the site is rendered unsearchable on the Commons and cannot be found.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #7629 (Duplicate): Coupled Group/Site email generation Issuehttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/76292017-02-06T19:02:34ZLaurie Hurson

<p>As reported by a CAC Faculty Fellow:</p>
<p>"he issue I’m having is a conflict regarding user roles between the “Add Users Sidebar Widget” and bbPress. Under Forum Settings for bbPress, if Auto-Role is defined to automatically give registered visitors the participant role in forums, anyone who visits the site is automatically given the role “participant” under <strong>both</strong> Site Role and Forum Role. So even if I have Add Users configured, it never asks for the password to join the site because everyone is automatically joined as “participant”. This means that they cannot post as author. But if I uncheck “Auto-Role” for bbPress, forums can’t even be seen, let alone participated in.</p>
<p>When I deactivate bbPress, Add Users works as it should, so I think this is a bbPress bug."</p>
