Redmine CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #19431 (New): cc'd people don't show up on Help tickets! https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/194312023-12-18T17:14:51ZMarilyn WeberMweber@gc.cuny.eduCUNY Academic Commons - Feature #18739 (New): PDF Embedder Premiumhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/187392023-09-05T17:39:09ZSyelle Graves
<p>We have a quick question about the PDF embedder: Has the Commons team ever considered the paid version? We ask because we have a newsletter with hyperlinks that we can't embed. and it would be great to have that functionality, which I believe the paid plugin has.</p>
<p>The only alternative I know of is to use an embedded Google doc, but we don't do that because we would have to reformat all of our existing PDFs, which we’ve tried and found not worth it (tables and images take forever to convert from Word to gdocs). Anyway, we're just curious in general if the Commons has considered or would consider it, if it's not too expensive!</p>
<p>Hope it's okay to ask. Thank you!</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #14394 (New): Commons News Site - redesignhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/143942021-04-28T19:30:21Zscott vothscott.voth@verizon.net
<p>I cloned the News site and redesigned it using a newer theme. Let me know what you think - <a class="external" href="https://newnews.commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://newnews.commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a></p> CUNY Academic Commons - Support #12247 (New): Screenshot of First Commons Homepagehttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/122472020-01-02T21:16:48Zscott vothscott.voth@verizon.net
<p>I have tried with the Wayback Machine - for example: <a class="external" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20090328021608/http://commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://web.archive.org/web/20090328021608/http://commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a></p>
<p>The CSS is not resolving. I have tried the archive dates before the official launch, but I always get an unstyled page. After the official launch all archive pages style correctly.</p>
<p>Is there a way to see the actual site as it was back then? Even an old screenshot would suffice.</p>

<p>Hi Scott,</p>
<p>So I was recently trying to embed a Tableau visualization into a Commons site when I ran into a couple of roadblocks. I went to our Help Page for embedding from other websites, and it was helpful, but something we may want to add is that when copying the share link over from Tableau, you have to make sure you copy the link under "Original View" <br /><img src="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/attachments/download/12443/Screen%20Shot%202019-09-19%20at%205.40.11%20PM.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>It was only after that discovery that the visualization was fully functioning within the Commons. I attached (or tried to attach) a screenshot to hopefully show you what I'm talking about.</p>

<p>Hi,</p>
<p>The Newletter plugin for the CPCP website (<a class="external" href="https://cpcp.commons.gc.cuny.edu">https://cpcp.commons.gc.cuny.edu</a>) is again having issues. Newsletters are not sending out. You then have to go in and manually run the queue but this takes forever and stops on its own unless you go back and run again. Any idea what is happening? Is it related to the WP Cron? How can we fix it? Thanks,</p>

<p>Hi everyone,</p>
<p>Here's the issue that we've been discussing internally:</p>
<p>We need to find a way to announce and keep a record of data quality issues. We're currently using the IR Director Listserv for this but a few days after a data alert has been sent out, people forget about it. What we would love to do is to have some sort of prompt to send out an alert email when an update has been made to only a single page (in this case, <a class="external" href="https://oirap.commons.gc.cuny.edu/alerts-data-quality-issues/">https://oirap.commons.gc.cuny.edu/alerts-data-quality-issues/</a>). The reason why I say a prompt is because we frequently make updates to pages before sharing them.</p>
<p>Thanks very much!!</p>

<p>Hi Scott,</p>
<p>Can you do a news blog or codex blog or other post that draws together some of our hero slides and documentation and puts them together into a list of things one can do when building a new community / blog / group resource on the Commons? Here is a starting point:</p>
<p><strong>1. Google Analytics</strong><br />Get GA reports for your Commons blog mailed to you on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis (note: may not work with domain-mapped blogs)<br /><a class="external" href="http://news.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2012/06/23/introducing-google-analytics-for-your-blog/">http://news.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2012/06/23/introducing-google-analytics-for-your-blog/</a></p>
<p><strong>2. Custom cuny.is shortlinks</strong><br />Create a custom cuny.is shortlink for your blog or group<br /><a class="external" href="http://codex.commons.gc.cuny.edu/cuny-url-shortener/">http://codex.commons.gc.cuny.edu/cuny-url-shortener/</a></p>
<p><strong>3. Site Newsletters</strong><br />Use Mailpoet to create attractive newsletters derived from your blog content<br /><a class="external" href="http://codex.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2013/12/08/create-newsletters-wp-site-mailpoet/">http://codex.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2013/12/08/create-newsletters-wp-site-mailpoet/</a></p>
<p><strong>4. Domain Mapping on the Commons</strong><br />Map a custom domain to your Commons blog<br /><a class="external" href="http://codex.commons.gc.cuny.edu/domain-mapping-commons/">http://codex.commons.gc.cuny.edu/domain-mapping-commons/</a></p>
<p><strong>5. Use the Commons as a Conference Hub</strong><br />With free websites, domain mapping, and tools to facilitate publicity, planning and registration, you can create a hub to post agendas, discuss issues, aggregate tweets, live-stream presentations, share archives, and keep the conversation going. <br /><a class="external" href="http://codex.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2014/03/06/got-conference-coming-host-commons/">http://codex.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2014/03/06/got-conference-coming-host-commons/</a></p>
<p><strong>6. Invite People to your group</strong><br /><a class="external" href="http://codex.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2014/02/02/invitations-commons-groups-group-blogs/">http://codex.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2014/02/02/invitations-commons-groups-group-blogs/</a></p>
<p><strong>7. Twitter Page</strong><br />Discover CUNY-related tweets and twitter-users <br /><a class="external" href="http://commons.gc.cuny.edu/twitter/">http://commons.gc.cuny.edu/twitter/</a></p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #3230 (Assigned): Scripts for quicker provisioning/updating of de...https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/32302014-05-28T13:42:42ZBoone Gorgesboone@gorg.es
<p>As the Commons team grows, more people are faced with the task of creating a local enviroment that mirrors the Commons for their development work. This is currently not an easy task. At a high level, you have to:</p>
<p>- make sure that a *AMP environment is running on your computer, and is roughly compatible with the server software running on the Commons production server<br />- clone the Commons repo<br />- download and import some version of the Commons database into your own local database<br />- do a bunch of wizardry to ensure that either you can switch your local environment to self-identify as 'commons.gc.cuny.edu', or to swap out with a local dev URL like 'commons.local.dev' or 'local.cicdev.com'<br />- maybe get some representative piece of the data at wp-content/blogs.dir/</p>
<p>Each of these steps is fraught with issues about data integrity, implementation details, and various, unpleasant gotchas.</p>
<p>Let's start to work toward something a bit more organized. I'm going to suggest the following as a starting point:</p>
<p>- Let's use Vagrant for VM management, since it's pretty widely used in the WP community<br />- Pick a provisioning tool - bash, Puppet, Salt, Chef, etc - for doing environment provisioning. I don't have a ton of experience here, so if anyone has thoughts, please jump in<br />- Write the necessary provisioning scripts to mirror the Commons fairly well (keeping in mind that we don't control the Commons environment directly, and that the Commons runs RHEL, which means we'll need to use a pretty-close free alternative OS)<br />- Write some scripts to handle fetching recent versions of Commons data, including a "cleaned-up" version of production data (I'll open a separate ticket for this)</p>
<p>I think this would be a cool summer project. Dom, I'm going to assign to you for the moment, as it seems up your alley, and ask you to give your initial thoughts.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Support #636 (Assigned): Create Lynda.com-like Table of Contents for Pros...https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/6362011-03-11T01:53:31ZMatt Goldmattgold@gmail.com
