Redmine CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #19928 (New): Forum Topic by Email Statshttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/199282024-03-08T17:41:09ZRaymond Hoh
<p>Matt wanted to know the number of topics created by email vs. total number of topics.</p>
<p>Here are the stats:</p>
<p>2024 - 192/515 (so far)<br />2023 - 964/3260<br />2022 - 1058/3272<br />2021 - 1333/4010<br />2020 - 1284/4225<br />2019 - 801/2604<br />2018 - 405/2868<br />2017 - 104/1540<br />2016 - 116/1430<br />2015 - 65/1414<br />2014 - 12/1305</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #18739 (New): PDF Embedder Premiumhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/187392023-09-05T17:39:09ZSyelle Graves
<p>We have a quick question about the PDF embedder: Has the Commons team ever considered the paid version? We ask because we have a newsletter with hyperlinks that we can't embed. and it would be great to have that functionality, which I believe the paid plugin has.</p>
<p>The only alternative I know of is to use an embedded Google doc, but we don't do that because we would have to reformat all of our existing PDFs, which we’ve tried and found not worth it (tables and images take forever to convert from Word to gdocs). Anyway, we're just curious in general if the Commons has considered or would consider it, if it's not too expensive!</p>
<p>Hope it's okay to ask. Thank you!</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Design/UX #17677 (New): Cataloguing notification typeshttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/176772023-02-16T18:54:32ZBoone Gorgesboone@gorg.es
<p>Following up on a recent dev call, here's a list of unique notification types on the Commons:</p>
<pre>
| added_reader |
| bbp_new_reply |
| comment_mention |
| followedpaper_comment |
| followedpaper_edit |
| friendship_accepted |
| friendship_request |
| group_invite |
| membership_request_accepted |
| membership_request_rejected |
| member_promoted_to_admin |
| member_promoted_to_mod |
| mypaper_comment |
| new_at_mention |
| new_membership_request |
| new_message |
| new_wire_post |
| pending_booking |
</pre>
<p>We can eliminate several that are related to Social Paper: <code>added_reader</code>, <code>comment_mention</code>, <code>followedpaper_comment</code>, <code>followedpaper_edit</code>, <code>mypaper_comment</code>. In addition, <code>new_wire_post</code> is linked to a feature that we no longer have on the Commons. This leaves us with:</p>
<p>1. bbp_new_reply - Created by bbPress for user A when user B posts a reply to a forum topic or reply written by A. <br />2. friendship_accepted - Created by BP for user A when user B accepts a friendship request that A sent to B.<br />3. friendship_request - Created by BP for user A when user B sends a friendship request to A.<br />4. group_invite - Created by BP for user A when user B invites A to join a group.<br />5. membership_request_accepted - Created by BP for user A when A requests membership in a group, and the group's admin approves the request<br />6. membership_request_rejected - Created by BP for user A when A requests membership in a group, and the group's admin rejects the request<br />7. member_promoted_to_admin - Created by BP for user A when A is promoted in a group from 'member' to 'admin'<br />8. member_promoted_to_mod - Created by BP for user A when A is promoted in a group from 'member' to 'mod'<br />9. new_at_mention - Created by BP for user A when A is at-mentioned anywhere tracked by BuddyPress. Notably for our purpose, this includes blog posts, blog comments, forum posts.<br />10. new_membership_request - Created by BP for user A when A is the admin of a private group, and user B requests membership in that group<br />11. new_message - Created by BP for user A when A receives a private message<br />12. pending_booking - Created by the events-manager plugin for user A when user A has created an event with booking, and user B books for that event. events-manager is <strong>not</strong> a plugin that we run on the main site, so this must be something that happens on secondary sites</p>
<p>Of these, a number are purely informational. 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12 A right-hand notifications pane could have a message that summarizes the information ("So-and-so replied to your forum post") and then links to that content.</p>
<p>Several of them have obvious follow-up actions. 3, 4, 10, perhaps 11. A right-hand notifications pane could have a link that points you to the page where you'd perform the action, or perhaps it could show you the interface for actually performing the action (ie, accepting the friendship).</p>
<p>I hope this is a helpful start.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #16655 (New): Formatting on CETLS Events pagehttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/166552022-08-24T17:47:40ZGina Cherry
<p>The formatting of my site's events page appears to have changed, even though I have not made any changes to it. Any idea what might have happened?</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://cetls.bmcc.cuny.edu/events/">https://cetls.bmcc.cuny.edu/events/</a></p> CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #16177 (New): Switch to Inbound mode for RBEhttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/161772022-05-30T20:32:45ZRaymond Hoh
<p>For the reply-by-email plugin, we use IMAP mode, which relies on connecting to a GMail account to check for new replies and posting items to the Commons.</p>
<p>This isn't the best for performance because IMAP mode uses a long-running process to do the new email checks. RBE also has another mode called Inbound mode, which works on a per-email basis. This mode is already being used to create new forum topics with a custom, group email address (<code>GROUP@groups.commons.gc.cuny.edu</code>), but we haven't fully switched over to using Inbound for replies and private messages because IMAP was already in use.</p>
<p>Some things-to-do before switching:</p>
<p>1. Since we already have set up the <code>GROUP@groups.commons.gc.cuny.edu</code> email address for new forum topics, would it be okay to keep using this email domain for replies as well? (Regular reply email addresses would look something like <code>fb2da051ba2b7220193cca6ada@groups.commons.gc.cuny.edu</code>). The alternative is to set up another email address domain like <code>X@reply.commons.gc.cuny.edu</code>, but RBE hasn't been tested with two different email domains yet. Some background info here: <a class="external" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/2880#note-24">https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/2880#note-24</a>. I'd say for now, we should keep using the same email domain unless anyone has any objections.</p>
<p>2. Once we switch to Inbound mode exclusively, replying to older items with the <code>cunyacademiccommons+IDENTIFIER@gmail.com</code> GMail address would no longer work. I was thinking we can set up an auto-replier in GMail, so if a new email matches the body of the RBE format, an auto-reply with the following message could be sent:</p>

<p>The CSS is not resolving. I have tried the archive dates before the official launch, but I always get an unstyled page. After the official launch all archive pages style correctly.</p>

<p>Hi Scott,</p>
<p>So I was recently trying to embed a Tableau visualization into a Commons site when I ran into a couple of roadblocks. I went to our Help Page for embedding from other websites, and it was helpful, but something we may want to add is that when copying the share link over from Tableau, you have to make sure you copy the link under "Original View" <br /><img src="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/attachments/download/12443/Screen%20Shot%202019-09-19%20at%205.40.11%20PM.png" alt="" /></p>
<p>It was only after that discovery that the visualization was fully functioning within the Commons. I attached (or tried to attach) a screenshot to hopefully show you what I'm talking about.</p>

<p>Or if I give you a SQL file, can you swap it for what is already there?</p>

<p>Hi everyone,</p>
<p>Here's the issue that we've been discussing internally:</p>
<p>We need to find a way to announce and keep a record of data quality issues. We're currently using the IR Director Listserv for this but a few days after a data alert has been sent out, people forget about it. What we would love to do is to have some sort of prompt to send out an alert email when an update has been made to only a single page (in this case, <a class="external" href="https://oirap.commons.gc.cuny.edu/alerts-data-quality-issues/">https://oirap.commons.gc.cuny.edu/alerts-data-quality-issues/</a>). The reason why I say a prompt is because we frequently make updates to pages before sharing them.</p>
<p>Thanks very much!!</p>
