CUNY Academic Commons

I see it: groundcontrol.commons.gc.cuny.edu That's it, right?

It's not using the Modularity Lite theme, though. I'm digging deeper to see what I can find.

It still doesn't show up in my list of blogs. Maybe this is a local problem for me?

Weird. I didn't do anything out of the ordinary. It also doesn't show up in the list of blogs on the Commons for me when I search for it.

I figured out what the problem was, and how to fix it, but not what was causing it.

Roughly:
- the reason why the blog wasn't showing up anywhere in your lists is because BP couldn't find it;
- the reason BP couldn't find it is that the piece of blog metadata called 'Name' had been deleted from the database;
- as far as I can tell, the reason the metadata was deleted on the BP side is because it had also been deleted on the WP side. That is, at http://groundcontrol.commons.gc.cuny.edu/wp-admin/options-general.php, the Site Title field had been deleted.

That's as far as I can figure. Either you deleted it (you naughty thing you!), or something freaky happened with the themes you were playing with that caused the value to be reset. I should note, though, that it wasn't just a case of something weird happening with the database - something must have deleted that value through the WP interface, because the proper trigger was set off to delete the parallel-but-separate BP data, which can only happen if the proper WP channels are followed.

Anyway, I reinstated the blog name and it seems to be showing up now. If you can see it, please mark this ticket as Resolved. We can reopen it again if the problem turns out to be more than just a fluke.
