Redmine CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #19904 (New): New member welcome screenhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/199042024-03-05T22:04:29ZColin McDonald
<p>How can we go about editing the screen to which new members are redirected after registering? I think it looks something like the attached but haven't been able to get there myself recently. I wanted to explore making some changes to align with some of our work updating the invite modal in <a class="issue tracker-15 status-1 priority-4 priority-default" title="Design/UX: Invite Modal (New)" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/19733">#19733</a>. Thanks!</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #18846 (Resolved): Events page filterhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/188462023-09-15T16:37:23ZColin McDonald
<p>I'm having trouble getting the campus filter here to do anything:</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/events/">https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/events/</a></p>
<p>The results don't seem to change no matter what box(es) are selected, and the total number of events at the bottom don't either. Or is this because these events aren't associated with a campus at all?</p>
<p>It's good to see 125 events popping up here, at least when I'm logged in -- there are only 4 when I use an incognito window -- though a lot of the 125 events are tied to individual classes and don't have a very broad appeal.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #18841 (New): Downtime planninghttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/188412023-09-14T23:27:45ZColin McDonald
<p>In light of recent issues with our server, we'd like to have a more concrete plan in place should the Commons experience significant downtime. Let's gather ideas, next steps, and preparatory materials here.</p>
<p>As a starting point, during the last few meetings we discussed establishing a Commons archive or backup. We need to hash out what that would mean:</p>
<p>- What content would we save and what wouldn't we?<br />- Would we save full site/group configurations (members, preferences, etc) prioritize Library and Media uploads, etc?<br />- Where would this archive live, and how would it be updated/tested/maintained?<br />- What would be the plan for using this in the event of an outage?<br />- Could we maintain an external list of site/group admin emails for emergency outreach?</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #17478 (Resolved): Commons downhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/174782023-01-12T04:53:15ZColin McDonald
<p>Just noticing this and wanted to report.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #17102 (New): Universal footer revisions for ToS / CChttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/171022022-10-25T16:06:51ZColin McDonald
<p>As part of our Creative Commons licensing and display overhaul, we want to edit the universal footer that appears across all Commons pages (see attached for its current state).</p>
<p>The main issue is the four links that appear under the nav items: Help, Privacy, Terms of Service, Creative Commons (CC) license unless otherwise noted.</p>
<p>(Incidentally, we have another project we should resolve here to update the text at some of these links: <a class="external" href="https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/groups/cac-community-team-project-planning/forum/topic/summer-project-review-of-commons-tos-privacy-policy-and-mission-statement-2/">https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/groups/cac-community-team-project-planning/forum/topic/summer-project-review-of-commons-tos-privacy-policy-and-mission-statement-2/</a>)</p>
<p>I'm proposing we change the fourth link to say Creative Commons License Info, and then instead of linking to this general CC license page that we do now:</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/</a></p>
<p>Instead we link to a new page of documentation that explains a few of the CC points we've made in recent meetings:</p>
<p>- CC-licensed content on the Commons is also subject to our ToS, which allows us to truncate, show excerpts, repurpose, etc as per the needs of our design and the Commons overall<br />- The overall Commons content philosophy and distinction: You own your content on the Commons, different than on almost any other platform or social network. Explain what this means, how you can protect/export/etc.<br />- You can change the CC license of your Commons content at any time, on a space-by-space level.<br />- You can also choose no CC license at all, later or during space setup, and retain all rights with the exception of the ToS allowances mentioned above.<br />- A section on CC licensing and OER, which would be related to <a class="issue tracker-2 status-1 priority-4 priority-default child" title="Feature: OER tag and CC licensing notification system (New)" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/17101">#17101</a></p>
<p>This version of the universal footer would only show up on our "core" Commons pages, like the homepage and directories -- we will need to spell out what this core contains.</p>
<p>A separate version would appear for this footer on individual Commons site and group pages, which will have their own licensing decisions and display. This version could just omit the fourth link to CC information, to reduce possible confusion there.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #17101 (New): OER tag and CC licensing notification systemhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/171012022-10-25T16:04:02ZColin McDonald
<p>We discussed in our last monthly meeting an idea to better link the OER tag during course site creation (or later editing such a site) with our Creative Commons licensing options.</p>
<p>It was proposed that if a user selects the OER tag, there would be an inline message if they have no CC license selected (either during the creation flow or on the site in Settings if the tag is being added later).</p>
<p>The message would say something like:</p>
<p>"We noticed that you have tagged your site as an OER but no CC license is present. Please CC license the open content, or the whole site in Settings>Writing. To learn more about open licensing visit our documentation [link TBD]."</p>
<p>Let's talk more about the mechanics of this, but I wanted to get the general idea down here.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #17090 (Resolved): Copy review for Create pagehttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/170902022-10-24T11:11:36ZColin McDonald
<p>I've put the copy of the Create page: <a class="external" href="https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/sites/create/">https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/sites/create/</a></p>
<p>Into this Google Doc so we can review and potentially simplify it as per recent discussions:</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_J77zctHkGwQ_eBKBKo2JUG3LwoHlKm0vUHSCXPfuQM/edit?usp=sharing">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_J77zctHkGwQ_eBKBKo2JUG3LwoHlKm0vUHSCXPfuQM/edit?usp=sharing</a></p>
<p>I've run through it myself already with some suggested edits (probably best to use suggest mode for any of your edits also). Among other cuts, I'm wondering if we can do away with the Key Benefits bullet points, as they're a bit redundant with the intro sentence for each section.</p>
<p>We've discussed whether to mention privacy options here, but I left that in for now. I think it helps differentiate between the three options, doesn't take up much space, and is something users seem to be interested in regularly.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #16499 (Resolved): Registration page 403 errorhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/164992022-07-21T14:02:01ZColin McDonald
<p>A professor's reported hitting somewhat regular 403 errors on the /register page, and her students have as well. See attached. Any idea what could be causing this?</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #16149 (Resolved): 2FA emails being sent?https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/161492022-05-23T20:16:23ZColin McDonald
<p>Can someone confirm that two-factor authentication codes are being sent to registered verification email addresses? I've been trying to use that method to log in and don't seem to be receiving any emails with codes. Thanks!</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #15209 (Resolved): Commons admin account downgradedhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/152092022-01-21T22:44:56ZColin McDonald
<p>I noticed that I can't access any of the admin tools/features in the Wordpress dashboard that I used to, and Boone mentioned on the dev call that this is likely due to a known Buddypress bug Scott used to experience (I can't find the ticket so starting this one) with his account level getting periodically downgraded. Just asking for mine to be bumped back up for now.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #15153 (Resolved): Main nav Courses link brokenhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/151532022-01-05T22:02:42ZColin McDonald
<p>Clicking the Courses top nav item on public or logged-in, it goes to a redirect and broken page:</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/courses/">https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/courses/</a></p>
<p>Starting a new ticket for this one since it's so prominent, though I know we've had other nav item issues.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #13993 (Resolved): Conference Site templatehttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/139932021-02-16T18:38:01ZColin McDonald
<p>Let's collect ideas here about a possible conference Site template to offer alongside our default, teaching and portfolio templates. This template likely won't involve custom design as much as custom content and plugins. We've already discussed going with a newer default Wordpress theme, like Twenty Twenty, and focusing on what basic pages/text to include with this template, along with functionality for scheduling, collecting attendee info, etc.</p>
<p>Laurie has offered to collect some model conference sites here from which we might pull elements, perhaps on the Commons already or elsewhere, and we can build out content and requirements from there.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #13149 (Resolved): Library search widget broken by new services platformhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/131492020-08-04T19:15:41ZColin McDonald
<p>Yesterday CUNY libraries a new "services platform," and the central change to me seems to be a new catalog setup that requires searches for library items to go through OneSearch:</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://libguides.brooklyn.cuny.edu/newLSP">https://libguides.brooklyn.cuny.edu/newLSP</a></p>
<p>An unfortunate upshot is that this breaks the library search that we offer for the sidebar and other widget areas on sites like these:</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://anth1105santos.commons.gc.cuny.edu">https://anth1105santos.commons.gc.cuny.edu</a><br /><a class="external" href="https://socy3304.commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://socy3304.commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a></p>
<p>And a good many more sites. Is there anything to do to fix this, or is it perhaps too big a task and we disable? Not sure too if this affects other integrations with the Library, as it seems all links to the old catalog are broken now.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #13027 (Resolved): Extraneous add doc button on profile pagehttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/130272020-07-08T14:38:29ZColin McDonald
<p>Hello, Scott discovered a Add A Doc button (see attached) in the Commons profile when you go to the page showing docs that you either started or edited. We're thinking we can probably just remove that.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #12143 (Resolved): Order drop-down not changinghttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/121432019-11-25T17:08:10ZColin McDonald
<p>Moving this from the Commons team forum testing thread, I'm having trouble using the ordering drop-down in the new Courses tab. I'm on a Mac, and while it worked fine in Firefox, in Chrome (77.0.3865.120) and Safari (Version 13.0.3) I'm having trouble getting a new selection in the drop-down to register and load. The URLs for a new selections don't seem to load. See the screen recordings attached.</p>
