Redmine CUNY Academic Commons - Bug #19998 (Staged for Production Release): Hypoths.is not working on med...https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/199982024-03-18T15:00:46ZLaurie Hurson
<p>Hi All,</p>
<p>A user today alerted me that hypothesis is not working on a pdf they uploaded to a public commons site:</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://socialannotation.commons.gc.cuny.edu/annotating-a-pdf/">https://socialannotation.commons.gc.cuny.edu/annotating-a-pdf/</a></p>
<p>I was able to recreate the issue here:</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://classtestbmcc.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2024/03/18/testing-hypothesis-on-pdf-commons/">https://classtestbmcc.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2024/03/18/testing-hypothesis-on-pdf-commons/</a></p>
<p>The expected behavior of a public Commons site running hypothes.is plugin with annotation on media library PDFs enabled would be:</p>
<p>1. user uploads PDF to site media library<br />2. Insert PDF on page or post<br />3. Site visitor clicks PDF link from page/post<br />4. When PDF from media library opens, plugin adds "https://via.hypothes.is" prefix to PDF view and visitor is able to annotate.</p>
<p>I believe something might be going wrong in step <a class="issue tracker-1 status-5 priority-4 priority-default closed" title="Bug: Site Loading Slowly at MEC (Resolved)" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/4">#4</a>. Is it possible the Commons is blocking the addition of the via prefix?</p>

<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>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 - Bug #19944 (New): Dealing with BuddyPress 12.x upgrade, pt. 2https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/199442024-03-11T22:29:12ZRaymond Hoh
<p>Follow-up to <a class="issue tracker-2 status-5 priority-4 priority-default closed" title="Feature: Dealing with BuddyPress 12.x upgrade (Resolved)" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/19493">#19493</a>. Just wanted to make sure my comments in <a class="external" href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/19493#note-10">https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/19493#note-10</a> are brought forward to a future release:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>For more pronounced changes, I created a new branch -- <a href="https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/compare/bp12...bp12-part2" class="external">bp12-part2</a> -- that namely switches out all BuddyPress 12 deprecated function calls. We can roll that out in a later maintenance release.</p>
<p>I've been testing <code>bp12-part2</code> with BP Classic <em>deactivated</em> and with <code>BP_IGNORE_DEPRECATED</code> set to <code>true</code> and these are some issues I encountered:</p>
<ul>
<li>BP Event Organiser needs some minor adjustments to account for group subnav registration: <a class="external" href="https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/bp-event-organiser/compare/1.2.x...bp12#diff-b0397cc71e95a79af968e8dadb7b8e525085f462c5a88ac11c8bdb86ecd7173d">https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/bp-event-organiser/compare/1.2.x...bp12#diff-b0397cc71e95a79af968e8dadb7b8e525085f462c5a88ac11c8bdb86ecd7173d</a></li>
<li>bbPress does <a href="https://github.com/bbpress/bbPress/blob/4178cbf665674c128c928fabdc0322badacad06b/src/includes/extend/buddypress/groups.php#L140-L157" class="external">some conditional checks</a> that needs to be delayed to the <code>'bp_parse_query'</code> hook. This fixes an issue with the bbPress stylesheet not loading on group forum pages I mentioned above in <a href="https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/19493#note-4" class="external">comment 4</a> amongst other permission-related cap overrides for the current user.</li>
<li>I need Git permissions to the <code>tapor-client</code> repo so I can push changes and pin a new version for our <code>cac</code> repo.</li>
</ul>
<p>About the bbPress load order issue:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Furthermore, when running bp-classic, I had to do some additional work to ensure that bbPress's BP compatibility layer is loaded in time, and is loaded only once. Like the approach above, it's pretty hacky (requiring a static variable to prevent double-loading) but it basically works. Here's the full patch: <a class="external" href="https://github.com/openlab-at-city-tech/openlab/commit/27f2a68354550295d85f0f3c5aaafc55004268f0">https://github.com/openlab-at-city-tech/openlab/commit/27f2a68354550295d85f0f3c5aaafc55004268f0</a></p>
</blockquote>
<p>I tackled this a little differently in my bbPress commit. See <a class="external" href="https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/commit/e2145f2462d3d2cbe2f16de914e7875c48b6e1cc#diff-0f345898d2c7666be77acc95ec88e90e98a407644a4ce5431b3fb96d06749039">https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/commit/e2145f2462d3d2cbe2f16de914e7875c48b6e1cc#diff-0f345898d2c7666be77acc95ec88e90e98a407644a4ce5431b3fb96d06749039</a> and the constructor and includes() portion of <a class="external" href="https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/commit/e2145f2462d3d2cbe2f16de914e7875c48b6e1cc#diff-a8d1ad6e40805411d0e557ee641e9d47c6cc3d0f17ef107f22ac729255439a5a">https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/commit/e2145f2462d3d2cbe2f16de914e7875c48b6e1cc#diff-a8d1ad6e40805411d0e557ee641e9d47c6cc3d0f17ef107f22ac729255439a5a</a> . I think the constructor changes might fix your double load order issue. Can you do some tests and see if this works for you, Boone?</p>

<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 #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 #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>
