CUNY Academic Commons

Also -- even if you choose to select an already created site, the system acts as if your privacy levels haven't yet been set -- please see the attached screenshot

I made the following changes:

a. Blogs are now listed alphabetically in dropdown https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/commit/5e9edefb9238e08c46566fd77d8926cf1c682bd9
b. Site Privacy is now linked to the top section in the following ways:
- If you choose to create a new site, the suggested privacy level is whatever it previously was (private for private groups, etc)
- If you choose an existing site, the suggested privacy level is set to the actual privacy level of the existing site, the Site Privacy radio buttons are disabled, and the gloss changes to a message about how the privacy levels are controlled on the site.

This can be tested on the new cdev (146.96.128.253 mapped to commons.gc.cuny.edu in your hosts file).

-- the option to create a new blog was selected automagically, rather than choosing an existing blog. I'm not sure whether that is the right choice, but I'm also not sure how to assess that.

IMO, the only good reason for changing this would be if we thought users were more likely to have created a site before deciding to link it to a group. My guess is that most users are not in this position; it's only our power users (eg you) who are likely to have one or more non-affiliated sites available for linking to groups. So I suggest leaving it.

OK, I think it's good.
