iCAP Portal Admin Meeting - November 1, 2024
Posted by Michael McKelvey on October 10, 2024
Agenda
- [Michael] Quick updates:
- Project Updates now default to being promoted to front page
- Metrics link on homepage links to Metrics w/Details listing
- Homepage video updated to iCAP 2025 Kickoff video
- Featured Projects on Projects page: now showing last 2 updated/edited Featured Projects (previously we showed the latest 2 by creation date, so editing a Featured Project didn't bump it back to the top). This will match the sorting on the Featured Projects listing page.
- Bugfix: Metric annotations now allow line breaks (previously line breaks in metrics would stop all graphs on the page from loading)
- Bugfix: Project descriptions - big images were causing "View Full Description" to look weird. Sarthak, you'd reported this bug - could you test this out and see if you can still break it?
- Started showing all images on SSC Projects and moved the images below the map. Most projects seem to have only 1-3 images anyway. If this becomes an issue for projects with lots of images, I can look into other options.
- [Michael, Miriam] Intro to new Recommendations process
- [Sarthak, Michael] Discussion of how to handle projects with large numbers of metrics (see notes from Sarthak & Michael's discussion)
Discussion
- New Google Analytics user numbers dropped in half last year, largely due to changes in the way Google Analytics tracks users (see Google Analytics changes impact the user counts for the Portal project update)
- Start a new metric?
- Continue using current metric with an Annotation?
- This was the preferred approach.
- Homepage video: the explanatory text about climate change is in the way - can we remove it?
- No, YouTube automatically adds topical context in information panels to videos on topics prone to misinformation
- We could upload the video to MediaSpace and use their embedder
- Intro to new Recommendations process
- Recommendations will start being added next week
- Do we have the process for adding Recommendations documented?
- No documentation yet, just verbally described
- Old Recommendations process is detailed in 2 private Word documents on the Sustainability iCAP Portal project page.
- Decided to continue discussion at next meeting
- Discussion of how to handle projects with large numbers of metrics [DEFERRED TO FUTURE MEETING]
