<p>I went to update our About page to add Zach to the Commons community team listing and ran into a weird bug, where Laurie's profile photo is shown on a modal overlay. I am experiencing this both on a regular browser window in Chrome and an incognito browser window where I am logged in a super admin.

<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>A user posted a message in a public group forum at 1:31pm:</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/groups/cuny-manifold-users/forum/topic/upcoming-manifold-workshops-2/">https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/groups/cuny-manifold-users/forum/topic/upcoming-manifold-workshops-2/</a></p>
<p>It was cross-posted on several other groups, which posted at 2:03. Examples are below, both groups are also public</p>
<p>COIL:<br /><a class="external" href="https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/groups/collaborative-online-international-learning-coil/forum/topic/upcoming-manifold-workshops-3/">https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/groups/collaborative-online-international-learning-coil/forum/topic/upcoming-manifold-workshops-3/</a></p>

<p>I received an email from the COIL forum at 2:37, see screenshot.</p>
<p>Two questions:</p>
<p>1. Robin (user) was wondering: Is this lag time between original posting, cross posting, and email typical and correct functionality? I thought maybe yes, since all messages have to be pulled through to each location, but wanted to be sure to ask.</p>
<p>2. Why wasn't the email I received from the CUNY Manifold Group, where the forum post was originated?</p>
<p>I received the email of the group forum post from the COIL group.This seems strange since both groups are public. I would think that a user would want the email to come from the forum where the post was originally shared.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #19966 (Reporter Feedback): Slow Load Time on Sitehttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/199662024-03-13T14:43:08ZLaurie Hurson
<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>A user is developing a robust program website for a GC department. Right now it is on a dev domain and he plans to clone the site into the final domain soon. But first he is hoping to resolve the slow load times he is noticing on the site:</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://lmistest.commons.gc.cuny.edu/">https://lmistest.commons.gc.cuny.edu/</a></p>
<p>-<br />From the User:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>I am just getting really slow load times, and a lot of times, images don’t load. I was worried that I had clogged the site with too many images or something...</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>I have a lot of images currently uploaded to the site, especially a few big splash images, which I will ultimately delete, as I was just using these for drafts. However, we will be writing about 40 descriptions of projects we have worked on, and each one will have at least one (smaller) image, so I worry about the site slowing down even more?</p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>I also worry it has to do with how many changes I made to the underlying theme (I’m currently using “Raft”)? I would really like to switch the theme to just a Wordpress Twenty Twenty-Four theme, but I spent a lot of time tweaking margins and padding etc. to make things look how I wanted them, so I don’t want to start from scratch… That said, if it’s an issue with the images, maybe the theme doesn’t have much to do with it?</p>
</blockquote>
<p>-</p>
<p>I ran the site through a free (questionably accurate) load time checker and it did report the site was very slow. Can you all confirm slow load time and help diagnose what might be causing this?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #19904 (New): New member welcome screenhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/199042024-03-05T22:04:29ZColin McDonald
<p>How can we go about editing the screen to which new members are redirected after registering? I think it looks something like the attached but haven't been able to get there myself recently. I wanted to explore making some changes to align with some of our work updating the invite modal in <a class="issue tracker-15 status-1 priority-4 priority-default" title="Design/UX: Invite Modal (New)" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/19733">#19733</a>.

<p>Hi Scott and All,</p>
<p>I wanted to provide some feedback on our shiny and new help redesign. Overall it looks great! The main issue I am experiencing is the font size is so large, I really feel the site looks cramped and I can only find a little bit of information at one time.</p>
<p>In the screenshot attached, the header is taking up ~1/3 of the page, the title and first sentence is another 1/3 of the page, and I can only see 1-2 menu items in the left sidebar, whereas in the past design I could see about 10+ menu items so it was clear that the menu on the left was the "main nav" for each help section.</p>
<p>Could we consider changing the font size and spacing to make it so help site visitors can see more information on the page? Do others feel this would be helpful?</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Design/UX #19814 (New): BBPress Forum convert to blocks?https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/198142024-02-22T23:58:41ZSara Cannon
<p>I was looking into BBPress installs and the one on WordPress.org support forums uses blocks instead of the classic editor for posting. Would this be possible with our installation or would this be a heavy lift?</p>

<p>Individual sites on the Commons can have their own Google Analytics tracking. See <a class="issue tracker-1 status-5 priority-4 priority-default closed" title="Bug: StatPress performance & migrate to per-site Google Analytics (Resolved)" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/10722">#10722</a>. Since <a class="issue tracker-3 status-5 priority-4 priority-default closed" title="Support: Google Analytics 4 tagging (Resolved)" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/13511">#13511</a>, we have supported Google Analytics 4 in addition to the legacy Universal Analytics. In Summer 2023, Google will be phasing out UA, so we should make some changes on the Commons:</p>
<p>1. Amend our help documentation to indicate that GA4 is the proper system to use, and to guide people on how to migrate their legacy UA accounts to GA4. Those users will then need to be directed on how to enter their new GA4 identifier in place of the old UA- identifier on their Commons sites.<br />2. We should change the language on the Commons dashboard panel so that it no longer indicates that both UA and GA4 are supported.<br />3. Scott, if you think it makes sense, we could build a system to build a list of sites using the old UA IDs. We can then either (a) email them, or (b) have something in the Commons (like an admin notice?) telling them to make the necessary changes, or (c) something else or some combination of these.</p>
<p>Scott, what do you think?</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #17102 (New): Universal footer revisions for ToS / CChttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/171022022-10-25T16:06:51ZColin McDonald
<p>As part of our Creative Commons licensing and display overhaul, we want to edit the universal footer that appears across all Commons pages (see attached for its current state).</p>
<p>The main issue is the four links that appear under the nav items: Help, Privacy, Terms of Service, Creative Commons (CC) license unless otherwise noted.</p>
<p>(Incidentally, we have another project we should resolve here to update the text at some of these links: <a class="external" href="https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/groups/cac-community-team-project-planning/forum/topic/summer-project-review-of-commons-tos-privacy-policy-and-mission-statement-2/">https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/groups/cac-community-team-project-planning/forum/topic/summer-project-review-of-commons-tos-privacy-policy-and-mission-statement-2/</a>)</p>
<p>I'm proposing we change the fourth link to say Creative Commons License Info, and then instead of linking to this general CC license page that we do now:</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/</a></p>
<p>Instead we link to a new page of documentation that explains a few of the CC points we've made in recent meetings:</p>
<p>- CC-licensed content on the Commons is also subject to our ToS, which allows us to truncate, show excerpts, repurpose, etc as per the needs of our design and the Commons overall<br />- The overall Commons content philosophy and distinction: You own your content on the Commons, different than on almost any other platform or social network. Explain what this means, how you can protect/export/etc.<br />- You can change the CC license of your Commons content at any time, on a space-by-space level.<br />- You can also choose no CC license at all, later or during space setup, and retain all rights with the exception of the ToS allowances mentioned above.<br />- A section on CC licensing and OER, which would be related to <a class="issue tracker-2 status-1 priority-4 priority-default child" title="Feature: OER tag and CC licensing notification system (New)" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/17101">#17101</a></p>
<p>This version of the universal footer would only show up on our "core" Commons pages, like the homepage and directories -- we will need to spell out what this core contains.</p>
<p>A separate version would appear for this footer on individual Commons site and group pages, which will have their own licensing decisions and display. This version could just omit the fourth link to CC information, to reduce possible confusion there.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #17101 (New): OER tag and CC licensing notification systemhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/171012022-10-25T16:04:02ZColin McDonald
<p>We discussed in our last monthly meeting an idea to better link the OER tag during course site creation (or later editing such a site) with our Creative Commons licensing options.</p>
<p>It was proposed that if a user selects the OER tag, there would be an inline message if they have no CC license selected (either during the creation flow or on the site in Settings if the tag is being added later).</p>
<p>The message would say something like:</p>
<p>"We noticed that you have tagged your site as an OER but no CC license is present. Please CC license the open content, or the whole site in Settings>Writing. To learn more about open licensing visit our documentation [link TBD]."</p>
<p>Let's talk more about the mechanics of this, but I wanted to get the general idea down here.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Support #17010 (Assigned): robots.txt https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/170102022-10-12T04:38:23ZMarilyn WeberMweber@gc.cuny.edu

<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>The release of the OER tag and the Open Education institute I ran in June has highlighted some issues with the Creative Commons license widget we are running on the commons, particularly on sites.</p>
<p>By default, every page of every site site is tagged with a CC license. I think we should revisit that. People may want some of their content openly licensed but not all of it. For example, Raffi Khatchadourian wrote to the Zendesk asking how to list some of his pages on his main site as oer but not all of the pages. Currently this is not really possible - the CC license is only available on a page by page basis or it encompasses the whole site. I am proposing we allow CC for some pages and no clear open license on other pages (hence signifying they are not open).</p>
<p>I think the automatic, by default tagging of every page as CC, regardless of whether a user has chosen the CC license knowingly, is an issue.</p>
<p>This also raises questions about creating an option to allows folks to restrict some of their work. Maybe we don't want to provide a "closed" option but this could also occur through simply not applying a CC license by default to every page and allowing a user to knowingly assign the CC license to only "open" content.</p>
<p>I think all of these issues, ideas, and options warrant a discussion, which hopefully we can pick up in the fall.</p> NYCDH Community Site - Bug #2618 (Assigned): Mark blogs as spam when created by users marked as spamhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/26182013-06-10T03:34:26ZMatt Goldmattgold@gmail.com
<p>Per an email discussion based on an nycdh.org issue, WordPress does not automatically mark a blog as spam when its creator is marked as spam. As you noted, Boone, it's a WP issue; if you could work on it at some point by, as you noted, "creat[ing] a patch to WP, or a small mu-plugin, or probably both," that would be great.

<p>Any way to have the link to the help & support group point directly to the forum? [no, not right now, unless we write new code. You could request this as an option here -- <a class="external" href="https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/commons-in-a-box">https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/commons-in-a-box</a> - but what you want to request is that users have the option of making the group homepage the forum instead of activity -- MKG] [will do. might be useful for help pages. i'll dig around to see how to add the functionality. if it's not too time consuming I'll put in a pull request. ]</p> NYCDH Community Site - Bug #2576 (Hold): Test Next Button in Javascript Tutorial Under Activitieshttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/25762013-05-16T21:13:39ZMark Newtonmnewton@columbia.edu

<p>The javascript tutorial on the activities section is screwy on the when you click on the ‘next’ button. [can you describe what you mean by "screwy" and/or take a screenshot/screencast? Also describe your browser/os. Just tried it and it worked okay for me --MKG][Hard to try again once you've been through it. seems only to work on first run. i saw two things. on click the arrow box turned into a blank square of a different size. on the last page, hovering on the drop-down menu, the pop-up box is cut in half by the browser window. i'm using Chrome on LionOSX.
