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 - 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>It looks like we need to do some housekeeping regarding CommentPress as we have, in effect, multiple versions activated because of how the theme/plugin has grown and changed its name along with updates.</p>
<p>In the past, you would activate the CommentPress theme and then also activate certain CommentPress plugins to make CommentPress work. Now, you simply activate the CommentPress Core plugin (<a class="external" href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/commentpress-core/">https://wordpress.org/plugins/commentpress-core/</a>), which has a theme embedded. That means that we need to remove the out-of-date CommentPress theme, as well as these two CommentPress plugins: Commentpress Ajaxified, CommentPress</p>
<p>I have looked into these two CommentPress plugins on our GitHub install and verified that both were updated 6 years ago (cp-ajax-comments, commentpress), which verifies that they are just as outdated as the CommentPress theme (also updated 6 years ago). <a class="external" href="https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/tree/1.10.x/wp-content/plugins">https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/tree/1.10.x/wp-content/plugins</a></p>
<p>Additionally, we should update the CommentPress Core plugin. We are at version 3.9.3, but the most recent version is 3.4: <a class="external" href="http://futureofthebook.org/commentpress/download/">http://futureofthebook.org/commentpress/download/</a></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 - Design/UX #4226 (New): Add option to connect a Doc with a Grouphttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/42262015-06-25T15:03:13ZSamantha Raddatz
<p>When creating a new document, it is not clear how/if it is associated with one of the groups. Unless the user chooses a group before clicking ‘Create New Doc,’ there is no way to associate a document with a group using this form.</p>
<p>Add an option for connecting a group to the ‘Create New Doc’ form (in a similar format to ‘Tags’ and ‘Parent’).</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Design/UX #4225 (New): Add information to DIRT page (in Create a Group)https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/42252015-06-25T15:01:53ZSamantha Raddatz
<p>The eighth step, to enable ‘Digital Research Tools,’ does not have any explanatory information about what this tab offers. Can it be customized or is it a set list of tools chosen by CUNY?</p>
<p>Add information about these tools, why a group might want to add this tab, or link to Codex (<a class="external" href="http://codex.commons.gc.cuny.edu/dirt/">http://codex.commons.gc.cuny.edu/dirt/</a>)<br />If customizable, add those options here too.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Design/UX #4222 (New): Add information to 'Delete Account' pagehttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/42222015-06-25T14:57:05ZSamantha Raddatz
<p>This page could offer information about how to delete certain aspects of the account (posts, messages, groups) in order to discourage the user from deleting everything.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Design/UX #4027 (Assigned): Usability review of CBOX update procedureshttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/40272015-04-29T13:49:39ZMatt Goldmattgold@gmail.com
<p>Samantha, I'd like to ask you to review the CBOX update/upgrade process. I just upgraded a few installations, and I found that the process could be improved. Here are my concerns:</p>
<p>-- Are all the steps one must take to update CBOX clear to users?<br />-- After one updates the main plugin, are there other upgrade steps needed for CBOX plugins? If so, is that process clear?<br />-- Is it clear that one needs to upgrade the optional CBOX theme after upgrading the plugin manager?<br />-- how might the upgrade process be improved with better visual cues and step-by-step guidelines?</p>

<p>If I click "reply" to an activity item on My Commons related to a forum post, where will my reply be posted -- on the activity stream or on the forum itself (or both)? A bit unclear. Screenshot attached</p>
<p>Boone, can you please answer this and then, if you think it is warranted, assign to Chris/Samantha for discussion? Thanks.</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 - Design/UX #3059 (New): Forum Post Permissable Content Explanatory Texthttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/30592014-02-21T14:01:45ZChris Steincstein@bmcc.cuny.edu
<p>Currently when you add a group forum post or post reply there is no indication what kind of content you can enter.</p>
<p>This ticket is to discuss what if and how we might indicate to the user what they are allowed to type into forum post content.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Design/UX #860 (Assigned): Standardize Button Treatment Across the Commonshttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/8602011-06-23T05:14:55ZChris Steincstein@bmcc.cuny.edu
<p>This grew out of talk around a request to change a button in another ticket (<a class="external" href="http://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/665">http://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/665</a>). After doing a deal of looking around and cataloging I found our button treatment is mostly consistent but could use improving in places.</p>
<p>The purpose of the ticket is to have a discussion on what the standard button(s), most likely there will be 2 or 3 types, should look like.</p>
<p>I don't have a lot of suggestions at this point. I want to bring to light what's out there and start the discussion. There are so many buttons it's too much to talk about here so I made this page:<br /><a class="external" href="http://www.teachingmultimedia.com/commons/buttons/buttons.html">http://www.teachingmultimedia.com/commons/buttons/buttons.html</a></p>
<p>I also printed that as a PDF which is attached in case you want to write comments directly on the document or take it offline (not perfect but it came out OK).</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>
