Sorted by Severity & Complexity
Major Severity + High Complexity
File pemissions for Content Editors / Channel Managers
Under Review by MIT Dev Ops / DCAD
- this affects the whole business workflow
- DCAD is researching a workaround for this access
This is a Drupal Cloud limitation
- Permission to access the sites file system is configurable via the ICME module, but Drupal Cloud does not permit reconfiguring.
- this ability will not be opened up in Drupal Cloud any time soon.
- In order to access the File Browser, the 'Node: Bypass content access control ' permission must be granted. Content managers have this permission by default. It's NOT desirable to open up this permission for Content Editors.
- There is a work around by adding a image field to the Content type.
Work Around:
- Add an image field to the Content type,
- If Channel Editors are permitted to edit that content type, they will also be able to upload to that image field.
- the image field does not depend on ICME or the File Browser
- the image field can be set up to handle one or more files
- the image field is set to hidden so it will not display
- the Channel Editor can obtain the location (URL) of the particular image file once it is loaded
- to insert the image file into the Body of the page
- click on the Image button
- in the 'Image Properties' popup display, paste the URL (relative link) of the image
- voila
Major Severity + Moderately Complex
Development of Special Content Type:
- Sponsors -
- Go Abroad Map -
Major Severity + Low Complexity
Development of Special Content Type:
- Blogs - More testing and development required....will the student blogger be able complete the required operations as spec'd?
Medium Severity + High Complexity
Events per Channel:
- Unable to recreate a view on each channel that passes the original query from the MIT Calendar feed w/out patching the code on referring site or making a complex web of JScript & CSS....
Medium Severity + Moderate Complexity
Unpublished pages do not show up in the Admin -> Content display list for Channel Editors
- Content Editors can view their own unpublished pages; however, the Admin->Content list will only display Published pages
- A view can be created to show unpublished pages.
- See sample view: http://mv.ezproxy.com.ezproxyberklee.flo.org/jad-test-view
Special Page permissions and theming
Medium Severity + Low Complexity
Minor + Moderate Complexity
Header/Footer
- Email in footer says "mailto" (Scott: Is there some UX rationale to this? Lacking a strong case I'd just as soon delete it)
- Items for LOGINS dropdown: CareerBridge: Student, CareerBridge: Employer, Horizons, Resources for MIT (Scott: We need to internally review the flow I sent for private resources first. I'm also recommending we remove CareerBridge as a label. Where would we move the Touchstone Login for site editors?)
Still Under development - Related to development of new redirect pages for the log-ins
Style/CSS
- Cross-site text spacing issues between paragraph content and headers makes it hard to skim and scan content in chunks. (Scott: the gist seems to be that we need less space after headers, so that paragraph content tightens up to the header preceding it. (Line height?) We also probably need more space after paragraphs followed by headers, to visually reinforce the break. (More space before headers (margin-top?) could achieve this effect)
- Ordered lists do not display with numbers. (Scott: Replicated this issue across content types and browsers, then dug into CSS with element inspector. <ol> element has a property "list-style-type" receiving a value of "decimal" (so, arabic numerals), but this is elsewhere being overwritten with a list-style-type of "none")
- Are we making changes to the title area of landing and content pages to move content higher and closer to the lefthand navigation block, as previously discussed? I thought we were removing the colored "swoops" design element and styling that title text differently.
- Scott: 403 style broke when I edited it. Title "swoops" design bar disappeared and title text is white on white background
Minor + Low Complexity
About/Utility
- About and Services pages are using About Landing Page content type, which is reserving space for an image. We don't have images for these pages. (Scott: We could move intro content into the body, or make pages using the About - Content Page content type. Perhaps on the About page we can use the image space to highlight contact info?)
- "Career Handbook" is a page and menu item under Resources, but this is actually a PDF resource. How should we handle this?
Roles
- Add URL redirects access to all Channel Editor roles
Channel Editors will need to have the 'Redirect: Administer URL redirections ' permission set
Superficial
Home Page
- Intro text obscured by background "swoops" design at some browser window sizes. (Scott: Do we need this text?)
- Scott: I still like sponsors better below Quick Links/Announcements/Events
Mobile
- Mobile header crowded, Menu link not obvious enough (Scott: I think we need to lose the MIT logo from the mobile header)
- Is having the whole mobile menu open by default too overwhelming? Can sections expand/collapse?
- Scott: Not sure I like the word "Utility" in the mobile menu. How do we feel about using "About" as a section header? "About" page is where tapping "Utility" takes you. We'd also remove "About" as a sub-item in this menu section.
- Is there another way to get rid of the mobile menu besides hitting Menu again? Maybe with the MIT logo out of the header we can make "Menu" a little more prominent (including menu icon?)
