Hello Commons Group admins, and happy summer! I wanted to let you know that we just released a full redesign of Groups on the Commons. From the Group front page to the admin-only management settings, you’ll notice a new look and updated functionality across the board.
Hi Scott, welcome back and thank you for your reply.
I’ll email you directly about specific issues. Overall I’ll mention that I’ve found site performance here inconsistent and sometimes poor, as reflected in some of the general website audit tools.
Thanks, Scott – hope the vacay was great. And will follow the directions.
Cheers,
Maryann

Thanks for checking in. Yes! the Commons is being actively used — more
than ever, in fact! You may have noticed the pretty extensive redesign
process we’ve been working on over the past year — detailed on our News
blog – https://news.commons.gc.cuny.edu/ . And we have group redesigns
coming this summer.
YES, we need to do an update, long overdue on the FFPP site. We need to add lots more info to the site. In fact, I’ve been attempting to add another faculty to serve as admin – Anahi Viladrich of Queens College. Do you have a guide as to how I can get this done?
