<p>Branching off of <a class="issue tracker-2 status-5 priority-4 priority-default closed" title="Feature: Add ability to delete group file folder (Resolved)" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/11755">#11755</a>:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>I’d also suggest adding the functionality of being able to change file and folder names in the Files section, mostly for the same reasons as wanting to be able to edit something once you’ve committed to it.<br />And also:<br />"One more thought: there doesn’t seem to be a way to create a folder structure for materials AFTER you’ve downloaded materials to the Files section. Can that functionality be added too?"</p>
</blockquote>
<p>The ability to edit folder names feels like the primary request here. "Create a folder structure after..." feels like it's asking for a way to manage folder structure (creating, deleting, renaming, re-nesting) without editing a specific File. The latter will require a much more radical rewrite of the system than the former, so maybe this is something we can do in stages. Alternatively, if we're looking toward a more unified "library" system, we might decide that this is too much of a lift for Files alone.</p>
<p>Sonja, assigning this to you, to think about when you have some free bandwidth. For background, the "folders" feature for Files is a hack: they're actually <strong>categories</strong>, but they're represented with the folder icon to more closely resemble a file-organization system on the desktop.

<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>I made a test course with the teaching template a few weeks ago called 'author name test". It was added to the courses list and I think it should be removed but I do not know how to remove it. I tried changing the "purpose" of the site but it remains in the courses tab list.</p>
<p>Should we have a way to remove courses from this list in case someone uses the teaching template but is not actually using the site for a course? Or should sites be removed from this list if the purpose is changed?</p> CUNY 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 #5581 (Assigned): Explore alternatives to Google Analyticshttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/55812016-05-22T01:07:32ZMatt Goldmattgold@gmail.com

<p>I think it can be hard for people to figure out how to change the email address they have associated with the Commons -- sometimes because of confusion between the display email in the profile and the one associated with their account, sometimes due to trouble figuring out where to go to change the email address.</p>
<p>In a separate ticket (<a class="external" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/3657">https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/3657</a>), Boone wrote:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>How's this for a plan: For all gc.cuny.edu users, show a prompt on next visit that says something like "The Graduate Center has recently migrated student accounts from the gc.cuny.edu domain to gradcenter.cuny.edu. If your email has changed, we can change your Commons profile for you. [No, keep <a class="email" href="mailto:mgold@gc.cuny.edu">mgold@gc.cuny.edu</a>] [Yes, change to <a class="email" href="mailto:mgold@gradcenter.cuny.edu">mgold@gradcenter.cuny.edu</a>]"</p>
</blockquote>
<p>I routinely run into such alerts on social media services, and I think running a one-time alert for Commons users that appears after log-in would be really useful in that it could enable people to either confirm their email addresses or quickly take them to a space where they can change their address. I think that most people are under the misapprehension that they need to use CUNY addresses for the site, even though we just require that at sign up.</p>
<p>Luke, Chris, Sam, Boone -- what do you think?</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 #3090 (Assigned): Prevent Retweets from showing up on Commons twi...https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/30902014-03-03T01:23:46ZMatt Goldmattgold@gmail.com
<p>Hi Dom,</p>
<p>I looked at the twitter page (<a class="external" href="http://commons.gc.cuny.edu/twitter/">http://commons.gc.cuny.edu/twitter/</a>), where the default setting is to show tweets from members of the CUNY Academic Commons. But because it shows retweets, the most noticeable thing to me at first look were tweets from people not associated with CUNY.</p>
<p>Is there any way to prevent retweets from showing up, so that all we see are tweets directly from our members?</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>
