Redmine CUNY Academic Commons - Support #19732 (New): Twitter/X feedhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/197322024-02-09T19:18:02ZMarilyn WeberMweber@gc.cuny.edu
<p>My name is Malkah, and I work at the CUNY Graduate Center's Writing Center. On our CUNY Commons website, we have linked our Twitter/X account so that our Twitter/X feed appears on the right-hand side of our landing page.</p>
<p>I am using Chrome, and although I can see the Twitter/X feed on my computer, my colleague who is also using Chrome, cannot see the Twitter/X feed on his computer. The same goes for another colleague who uses Firefox, and the same goes for my phone, which uses Safari.</p>
<p>Would you please let us know how to fix this issue so that everyone can see the Twitter/X feed when they visit our website?</p>
<p>Thank you.</p>

<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>I replied to this ticket below (Ticket 4583) through WS desk on Friday afternoon. Now when I go to find the ticket in WS desk it is nowhere to be found. See screenshots.</p>
<p>This has happened several times that I cannot find the tickets I was working on and therefore I cannot check if they have been replied to. Am I doing something wrong? Is this a bug or are the tickets archived somewhere that I cannot access?</p> 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 #18099 (New): Using Tag Groups plugin to create tag group lists i...https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/180992023-04-24T15:29:00ZLaurie Hurson
<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>I am using the "Tag Groups" plugin on this site: <a class="external" href="https://tlcassignments.commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://tlcassignments.commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a></p>
<p>A few weeks ago Ray helped me with the front page boxed tag display, which is looking good, but I am hoping to refine the tag lists using the plugin on this front page, and within each post.</p>
<p>First question:</p>
<p>The Tag Groups plugin allows the admin to create groups of tags; in the case of this site I have grouped tags as either "type" or "feature" of an assignment. You can see these groupings in the dashboard in tags and tag group admin.</p>
<p>On the front page right now you are seeing how the tag groups shortcode displays "tag list" under "type" and all tags as a boxed tag cloud under feature. Ideally, I would like the tags in the "type" group to display under the "type of assignment" heading in the same boxed format that ray designed (same as category display)and the feature tags to display under the "assignment feature" heading.</p>
<p>Second question:</p>
<p>Within each post, I would like to use shortcode to auto-populate the "type" tags in the type column and the "feature" tags in the feature column. Ideally the shortcode displayed tags lists would be live links, so a user could see that the assignment feature "student choice" and click "student choice" to see other, similarly tagged assignments. These lists do not need to be boxed (as they would be on front page) a simple list would make sense here.<br /> Sample post: <a class="external" href="https://tlcassignments.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2023/04/03/documentary-analysis/">https://tlcassignments.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2023/04/03/documentary-analysis/</a></p>
<p>Does this make sense? Thanks for your help with this. I have poked around and tried various short code but could not get the tag groups to display correctly.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #17797 (New): Widgets in Pages for custom category listshttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/177972023-03-08T18:34:10ZLaurie Hurson
<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>I am building out an OER TLC assignment library on the Commons. I will need to make the taxonomies and folksonomies visible to users so the site and assignments can be easily searched and navigated, kind of like it is here (bottom of page): <a class="external" href="http://teachoer.org/">http://teachoer.org/</a></p>
<p>On the TeachOER site, I used "widgets on pages" plugin that allows a user to group widget and use shortcode to insert. I like how the widget displays on the front end not just as a lit but as buttons. (I Think this may be the theme?)<br /><a class="external" href="https://datamad.co.uk/wordpress-plugins/widgets-on-pages/">https://datamad.co.uk/wordpress-plugins/widgets-on-pages/</a></p>
<p>My question: can we add widgets in pages plugin for use on this Commons site: <a class="external" href="https://tlcassignments.commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://tlcassignments.commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a></p>
<p>AND/OR can you advise: is there a better way to do this now with the block editor? I can imagine making buttons with custom links to each category archive but I think this would be tedious. Right now, I see that the "category block only lists categories, and does not display them in a pleasing way.</p>
<p>There is no rush on this, I don't need to complete the prototype library site until April.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #16682 (Reporter Feedback): User cannot see "My sites" https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/166822022-08-29T14:51:41ZLaurie Hurson
<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>I was on a meeting this morning where the user was sharing her screen.</p>
<p>User: <a class="external" href="https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/members/towallp/">https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/members/towallp/</a></p>
<p>Site: <a class="external" href="https://towallp.commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://towallp.commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a></p>
<p>A couple issues here:</p>
<p>1. The user has no "my sites" tab on "Sites" page when logged in<br />2. Site does not come up as linked to users account<br />3. Site is not returned in search in sites directory</p>
<p>I am not sure what is going on here but I think there is a bug somewhere in the linking of the site and user.</p>
<p>Thanks!</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Support #14538 (Reporter Feedback): Weebly To Commonshttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/145382021-06-08T16:25:06ZLaurie Hurson
<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>I met with a faculty member who runs the Lehman Lab for Social Analysis: <a class="external" href="https://www.lehmanlab.org/">https://www.lehmanlab.org/</a></p>
<p>She would like to move the Lehman Lab site onto Commons along with several of the websites for the courses the lab offers, linked below</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://www.lehman-guns-research.org/">https://www.lehman-guns-research.org/</a></p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://nycethnography.weebly.com/">https://nycethnography.weebly.com/</a></p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://foodhealthmigrationlehman.weebly.com/">https://foodhealthmigrationlehman.weebly.com/</a></p>
<p>These 4 sites are on Weebly currently but she would like to move them over to the Commons so they can be further built out and used each semester, in tandem with the courses that will now also run on the Commons.</p>
<p>I have looked online for various methods of exporting Weebly to Wordpress but the exporter that is out there (<a class="external" href="https://weeblytowp.com/">https://weeblytowp.com/</a>) does work in this case because the site are all pages, not blogs.</p>
<p>There seems to be another method for moving to WordPress that involves exporting an HTML archive of the site and then uploading HTML archive to Wordpress. However, I do not believe we have a way to upload HTML archives to the Commons (I think this is a security issue).</p>
<p>Moving these sites to the Commons will be a one time thing since, once they are on the Commons she will continue building out the sites in the CAC space.</p>
<p>Any suggestions for how we might export/import these Weebly sites onto Commmons (preferably avoiding a manual copy/paste method, if possible)?</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Design/UX #11843 (New): Tweaking the Gutenberg Editor Interfacehttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/118432019-09-10T18:58:33ZLaurie Hurson
<p>Continuing a discussion that began in ticket <a class="issue tracker-2 status-5 priority-4 priority-default closed" title="Feature: CC Image Plugin (Resolved)" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/11833">#11833</a>: CC Image Plugin: <a class="external" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/11833">https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/11833</a></p>
<p>When a user is editing in the Gutenberg block editor view, the "Simple CSS" field is open/visible by default. This has confused multiple people who have entered post content in this field instead of into the content field. We may want to consider making the default setting for the "Simple CSS" area to closed/minimized.</p>
<p>Additionally, the content area where users enter the body of their post or page is poorly defined as the main place to enter info. The directional text in the content area is very small and the color contrast likely does not meet accessibility standards. We may want to consider reformatting this text in the block editor to make it more accessible and user friendly.</p>
<p>I think this also raises larger issues of accessibility of the block editor in general. Accessibility issues associated with the block editor were raised when Gutenberg was released but I am not sure how many of these issues have actually been addressed and fixed. I think Boone may know more about this?</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #10678 (Reporter Feedback): Newsletter Plugin Not Sending Out Newslet...https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/106782018-11-08T02:56:19ZMark Webb
<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>Let's use this ticket to track the project of making the Commons into an oAuth provider. This will allow third-party applications to offer account creation and authentication through the Commons.</p>
<p>The initial client will be the CUNY installation of Manifold, but we should build with an eye toward more general adoption.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #6644 (Reporter Feedback): White Screen at Login Pgehttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/66442016-11-08T17:07:40ZLuke Waltzerlwaltzer@gc.cuny.edu

<p>Hi Boone,</p>
<p>I'm trying to produce a grant report and get a sense of some CAC numbers. When I click on "Sites" in the nav bar, I see two different numbers 1575 in the "All Sites" tab and 2263 in the Viewing x of x info line.</p>
<p>Which is correct, and is this evidence of a bug of some kind? Or does it just reflect something like private/hidden sites that I can see as a super-admin?</p>
<p>Marking this as high priority only because I'm trying to get the report in and would appreciate a quick answer if at all possible.</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 - Feature #370 (Assigned): Guest Accountshttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/3702010-10-08T15:15:19ZMatt Goldmattgold@gmail.com
<p>We have just had an inquiry about bringing 15-20 non CUNY people on to the site for a conference. These kinds of decisions would be much easier to make if we had some sort of guest accounts, perhaps with limited permissions (the ability to participate in a specific blog, for instance, but not to create a new one or to edit wiki pages.)</p>
<p>What do you think? Helpful? Unnecessary? Let me know</p>
