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>All the best,<br />Malkah Bressler</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Support #19605 (New): AI question from Ned Bentonhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/196052024-01-26T17:19:25ZMarilyn WeberMweber@gc.cuny.edu
<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>From a WS ticket:</p>
<p>I am currently facing an issue while attempting to edit the sidebar to display the course information on my page: <a class="external" href="https://kcccebioblitz.commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://kcccebioblitz.commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a>. Despite my efforts to modify the content, the sidebar editing option seems to be inaccessible, and I can’t update the preset from my Dashboard.<br />To provide further context, I have attached an image illustrating the specific area of concern. Unfortunately, I am unable to locate the sidebar editing feature within the editing interface.<br />I would greatly appreciate your assistance in resolving this matter. If there are specific steps or tools, I need to use to access the sidebar editing options, kindly guide me through the process.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Support #19366 (New): Commons help email addresshttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/193662023-12-04T15:15:33ZMatt Goldmattgold@gmail.com
<p>Hi Scott -- thanks so much for all of the work you did to help us transition to a new help system. I know I'm being super picky here, but how big of a deal would it be for us to create a new gmail address that is <a class="email" href="mailto:commonshelp@gmail.com">commonshelp@gmail.com</a> as opposed to <a class="email" href="mailto:commonshelpsite@gmail.com">commonshelpsite@gmail.com</a>?</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #18496 (New): PHP 8+ Compatibilityhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/184962023-07-21T22:45:40ZRaymond Hoh
<p>We're currently running PHP 7.4 in our PHPCS set up and on the GC server, but some of us are using PHP 8+ in our development environments. (For example, <a class="issue tracker-1 status-5 priority-4 priority-default closed" title="Bug: bp-email-type doesn't properly deal with 'to' arrays (Resolved)" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/16948">#16948</a>.)</p>
<p>This will be a catch-all ticket to address deprecated notices, fatal errors and the like.</p>
<p>Also, just to note that PHP 7.4 reached end-of-life back in November 2022. Upgrading to PHP 8.2 is probably good to think about when we decide to move hosts. PHP 8.2 is supported until December 2025, while PHP 8.0 will reach end-of-life in November 2023.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #18362 (Reporter Feedback): After entering OTP, I am redirected to a ...https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/183622023-06-14T13:53:45ZRaffi Khatchadourianraffi.khatchadourian@hunter.cuny.edu

<p>Hi Commons Team,</p>
<p>(Marilyn says "Please open up a ticket in Redmine about this.")</p>
<p>We have an important need for a website to be displayed in Avenir font, due to branding reasons for a DOE-funded center. The site was moved over from Wix, where Avenir was a built-in option.</p>
<p>We’re creating the Commons site in Canvas, which has no option for Avenir that we can see.</p>
<p>Is it possible that there is an option to add code to change the site’s font to Avenir? Or, are there any themes on the Commons that have Avenir font built in or allow code to allow it? Montserrat, the recommended alternative via Google fonts, looks noticeably different from our years of existing/already-distributed materials, which we don't have a way to go back in time and change. This includes our banner and logo, which we will have to change to match our (already-designed) site.</p>
<p>Is there anything we can do? <br />Many thanks!</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #16314 (New): Install Multicollab plug-in?https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/163142022-06-28T21:52:14ZRaffi Khatchadourianraffi.khatchadourian@hunter.cuny.edu

<p>Last week, I noticed that there was a new form entry for which I never received an email notification. This week, I tested it by submitted a "fake" form entry, and the notification worked. However, if I go to the entry page and send a notification from there, it doesn't work. I checked the gravity form logs, and it looks like the emails are being submitted to SMTP. But, the notifications work sometimes and don't work other times. This can be problematic since students don't typically tell me that they submit forms, they just submit them and await my response. I checked the gravity forms system status and found the following errors:</p>

</code></pre> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #14629 (Reporter Feedback): Possible Post Order Bug?https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/146292021-07-26T14:58:27ZSyelle Graves
<p>Greetings,</p>
<p>I am noticing something strange about the post order on this site <a class="external" href="https://8nsshl2021.commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://8nsshl2021.commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a><br />The posts do not seem to show by the expected default order (reverse chronological.)</p>
<p>In addition, when I activate the simple Custom Post Order plugin in an attempt to get the posts to show in the order we want (happens to be alphabetical by title), that solution is also foiled.</p>
<p>I’ve included two screenshots (dashboard and front end).</p>
<p>When I first set these timestamps in order to show the posts alphabetically, the posts did show in the correct order. But since then, they have reverted to an order that looks random.</p>
<p>I attempted to re-create this on a test site, thinking that it might be related to the 2017 theme, but I got mixed results (the "Hello World" post showed at the top, when it should show last, even when I changed themes, which seemed odd, and the rest showed in normal order. Sorry I don't have more info there.)</p>
<p>Let me know if I can provide any additional info/apologies if this is something simple.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #12573 (New): CommentPress Core Issueshttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/125732020-03-24T17:51:05Zscott vothscott.voth@verizon.net
<p>I have retested following the release and there are still some issues:</p>
<ol>
<li>the footer is does not display correctly</li>
<li>"Create A New Doc" goes to create a new group/site/group+site (Special Pages)</li>
<li> Site Home goes to CAC Homepage (Special Pages)</li>
<li>Recently Active button shows all Commons members who are recently active</li>
<li>Who is Online shows all Commons members who are online</li>
<li>If you change the theme to a non commentpress theme, and try to change back, you can only change to Comment Default theme, not the Modern theme (you have to deactivate plugin and reactivate to get to the Modern theme again)</li>
</ol>
<p>Most of these are not terribly serious, and the plugin still works, but it would be nice to get them fixed in the future, when there is time.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #11860 (New): Ensure Students Are Aware They Can Use Aliases At R...https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/118602019-09-15T19:43:59Zscott vothscott.voth@verizon.net

<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>I've had a few people contact me to ask about where they might post announcements. I know we've talked about something like this in the past, but here are a few ideas:</p>
<p>1. A general area where people could post announcements. We could have a checkbox on sign up that asks people whether they want to subscribe by email<br />2. A craigslist type bulletin board -- perhaps done through a group, but is access more through the forum interface than through a group interface<br />3. A general group for announcements.</p>
<p>What do you all think? I think that, generally, it should be an easy to use space that allows opt-in subscriptions.</p>
