<ul></ul><p>I'll look into this Matt and get back to you. My first thought is that it might be in a couple of stages. One would be to make sure we're consistent with the create group button and offer it in logical places. The other is that long-term this should get worked into the landing page for logged in members so they can easily create groups or blogs from there.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #2135: Creating a Blog, Creating a Grouphttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/2135?journal_id=90872012-09-25T14:15:40ZMatt Goldmattgold@gmail.com

<p>As for the Groups and Blogs pages, perhaps we could move the button down so it's in the blank space just before the list of groups or blogs? See MoveCreateGroup PNG.</p>
<p>The only other thing I could suggest to make it more prominent would be to add color but I'm hesitant to recommend that since we don't really have a color system for that.</p>
<p>If that change is OK Boone, in case it helps, I just moved the button link to inside of the #subnav div and then styled it with something like.</p>
<p>#subnav > a {<br />float: left;<br />margin-left: 20px;<br />}</p>
<p>In terms of adding something to the My Groups and My Sites pages, I think that adding a text link is consistent with how we do things like add new message on these kinds of pages. Screenshot attached for adding link on these two pages.</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #2135: Creating a Blog, Creating a Grouphttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/2135?journal_id=149482014-03-27T19:10:14ZBoone Gorgesboone@gorg.es
<ul><li><strong>Estimated time</strong> set to <i>2.00 h</i></li></ul><p>Thanks, Chris. Neither of these changes is trivial to make, unfortunately.

<ul></ul><p>Thanks, Boone. Just tested. A few thoughts:</p>
<p>Create a group button: this placement is great -- much better. When I clicked on the "create group" button, though, it didn't seem to work. The button changed to a bigger size in the on-click state, and I saw a spinning wheel, but then the button reverted back to its former size and nothing happened.</p>
<p>I think we should move the "Create a Site" button to a comparable place on the blogs page . . . thoughts? separate ticket needed?</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #2135: Creating a Blog, Creating a Grouphttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/2135?journal_id=150432014-04-01T13:22:27ZBoone Gorgesboone@gorg.es

<p>I don't recommend testing these items on cdev at the moment - I'm repopulating it with updated data, so it's not entirely reliable.

<ul></ul><p>These changes look good to me overall.</p>
<p>I didn't see the Create Site button in the new location (like Create Group), but maybe that's due to your updates in progress?</p> CUNY Academic Commons - Feature #2135: Creating a Blog, Creating a Grouphttps://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/2135?journal_id=150552014-04-01T15:59:22ZBoone Gorgesboone@gorg.es
<ul></ul><p>Chris - I messed up a commit. It's fixed now. Thanks for letting me know.</p>
