<p>My name is Malkah, and I am a writing consultant at the Graduate Center's Writing Center. We are in the process of creating a newsletter, which we will send to our mailing list, and we would like to use JetPack since it is already linked to our CUNY Commons website.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, as our mailing list exceeds 100 recipients, we cannot use the free version of JetPack. I am writing to inquire if</p>
<p>1. CUNY has a paid subscription to JetPack, which we can access.<br />2. If CUNY does not have a paid subscription to JetPack, can we at the Writing Center purchase this subscription and still have JetPack linked to our CUNY Commons website?</p>
<p>Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you.</p>

<p>Ned Benton asks:</p>
<p><a class="email" href="mailto:nbenton@jjay.cuny.edu">nbenton@jjay.cuny.edu</a> | January 26, 2024 9:20 am<br />Will CUNY Commons install any plug-ins that connect to AI services. I am thinking of this one but there may be others.</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://wordpress.com/plugins/ai-engine">https://wordpress.com/plugins/ai-engine</a></p>
<p>I have posted in NESRI an article about AI and slavery records. Here it is.</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://nesri.commons.gc.cuny.edu/artificial-intelligence-and-slavery-research/">https://nesri.commons.gc.cuny.edu/artificial-intelligence-and-slavery-research/</a></p>
<p>While this article reveals risks and deficiencies, I continue to think that AI could become a useful way to explain records of slavery at the individual level. We are working on a project we call NESRI 2.0 which involves adding several more fields to will enrich the interconnections between the 90,000 records that we have.</p>
<p>If we eventually do this system-wide, we have the challenge of presenting this to users. I first approach is to add a table to our locality reports that lists the families, in the locality specified for the report, with a link to click into the records of any family, so people in Boston can learn of families of enslaved people in the 1700s. But I also think that I can code the database to construct a test string that can be submitted as a prompt to an AI service to get back an essay about the family - the names and relationships and events in their lives and in the community when they lived. The service would have to have guardrails to not make up information.</p>

<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>I followed up with Zach after our community call today to clarify how he would like to contribute to the model CV we will use for Commons outreach for the next release.</p>
<p>Rather than using his own personal and public CV, Zach is available to help build out a model graduate student CV for us to use in outreach about the new CV features.</p>
<p>To get this going, a few questions: <br />- should zach spin up a new account to go with this CV? <br />-- If yes, should the new account and model CV be done on the dev site and then moved over to production? <br />- If we are using this model CV for outreach (and possibly documentation? not sure) what is the timeline on when this needs to be up and running?</p>
<p>I'm sure there are other considerations or questions I am missing so please feel free to let us know what we need to do!</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Support #18982 (Reporter Feedback): Sites missing pages, menus, icons, ba...https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/189822023-10-05T23:52:11ZMarilyn WeberMweber@gc.cuny.edu

<p>Via ZenDesk:</p>
<p>Hello Marilyn,</p>
<p>The GC Music Program’s Commons website has an issue with embedded maps links. Here’s an example post with the issue:</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://gcmusic.commons.gc.cuny.edu/events/concert-the-rhythm-method-string-quartet/">https://gcmusic.commons.gc.cuny.edu/events/concert-the-rhythm-method-string-quartet/</a></p>
<p>When you scroll down to "Maps," it says "This page can't load Google maps correctly." There's an option to select "Do you own this website?" which has information about errors, but I don't know if I can fix that myself.</p>
<p>Could you help me in fixing this issue? It occurs for all event posts on the site.</p>
<p>Thank you,<br />Joseph Vaz</p>

<p>Hi Joseph!</p>
<p>Thanks so much for bearing with my technological ignorance! Your Twitter ("X") posts look great - thanks for doing that! If you know to whom I could direct the question about maps not loading properly on the GC Music Commons event listings, that would be great! Here's a post as an example:</p>

<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> AD/O365 Transition from NonMatric to Matriculated Students - Feature #12062 (In Progress): creat...https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/120622019-11-12T20:50:21ZEmilio RodriguezCUNY 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>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>
