CUNY Academic Commons

I suspect there a quite a few problems here. Will keep you in the loop.

Ray, can you add Scott as a watcher on this ticket? Thank you!

I've added Scott as a watcher. Marilyn, the site is now resolving as Boone fixed the mapped domain issue. Let us know if Andie needs to provide us with a new theme to use for the site.

Boone, regarding:

I wasn't certain what "active" meant in this case.

The labelling is a misnomer. Active, in our case, means Primary, because we use it to determine the main mapped domain to redirect all other mapped domains from:
- https://github.com/humanmade/Mercator-Redirect/blob/master/redirect.php#L138-L142
- https://github.com/humanmade/Mercator-Redirect/blob/master/redirect.php#L22

As for why the site failed to load for the bare thesegalcenter.org when set as the Active domain vs. www.thesegalcenter.org, it looks like Mercator will prioritize mapped domains with the leading www. over the bare one: https://github.com/humanmade/Mercator/blob/master/mercator.php#L147. Since we have mapped domain entries for both www. and bare domain, Mercator would always return the www. entry.

If we wanted to use the bare thesegalcenter.org domain as Primary, I believe we should remove the www.segalcenter.org mapping entry. I haven't tested this yet. I'm not sure if we want to do that or not.

Looks like this is related to this issue - https://github.com/humanmade/Mercator/issues/41#issuecomment-87667612

Thanks for the explanation, Ray! Sounds like this is a specific issue to the way that this specific site's domains are mapped, and not a more general issue that'll crop up with Mercator across the Commons.
