CUNY Academic Commons

Boone -

Matt would like to share information with someone trying to build a Commons-like thing. Sorry for the length, but I'm c&p'ing the whole exchange below so that I don't miss anything:

Hi,

I´m building a site similiar to what you have at Cuny Commons and I would like if it´s possible to access to the plugin "commons-profile-enhancements".

Also if you would be so kind to explain me how should I do to create a Papers section on my site. I can´t find anywhere in your site how to do that.

Thanks a lot!

Are you building a site on the commons? Please give us more information about this project. Thanks!

Hi Marilyn,

Please share the message with Boone and ask where the repositories for these WP plugins are. I think we have Social Paper up publicly, though I'm not sure about the profile work

Best,

Matt

I´d say we are more about building a site about the commons. If you refer to the utilization of the Commons in a Box, I tried to install it with all the plugins but it didn´t work properly. Also for the UI we are looking for something different.
What we are doing is something similiar to HCommons but for a spanish speaker community from Bolivia but hoping other researchers will join. I have everything in a local beta so it´s difficult to show you but the idea it´s pretty the same as hcommons.org.

It will be called investigacionsocial.net and so far we make also part of the Annotation Alliance of hypothes.is as Nodo Común (https://nodocomun.org) , the association I make part of.

I´ll be very glad to discuss with you opportunities to enrich our project with your experience.

Thanks
