Weekly Web Updates – October 9, 2017

You will now be added to WordPress sites where the group sync option is enabled and you are a member of one of the groups immediately when you log in. For example, if you log in and try to access a course site and are in the class groups, your WordPress account will be added to the site. Similarly, if you are a new staff member and log in you will automatically be added to the Classifieds blog, since that is set up to sync group members from the All Staff group.

Updates

Fixes and Tweaks

  • When viewing the Analysis tab of results in the Drupal webforms site, you can now select whether to include draft submissions in the analysis.
  • We’ve put some redirects in place to assist the reorganization of the Commons websites.
  • When viewing the “analytics” tab of a WebForm, you can now filter between draft and completed submissions.

Ongoing Work

  • Creating a new website for the Middlebury Institute of International Studies.
  • Creating a new automatically generated course catalog.
  • Building out the configuration of our CAS servers in Chef, which is a configuration management system. We have already completed this work for our Drupal, WordPress, MediaWiki, GO, Omeka, and the Course Catalog services.
  • Upgrading the Drupal sites for the Davis programs, Dining Menus, and Museum of Art to Drupal 8.
