Discussion:

• Invoices in project updates - decided to make future invoices private, and make the current invoices private as well.

Done:

• Related Files section on project pages: show as list rather than cards, add spacing between items, remove bullet points
• Reorganize Collections pages (example on dev)
  • Keep project listing in top left
  • Move map to lower left
  • Move Updates to top right, show 10
  • Move Hierarchy to just below Project Listing, link to hierarchy in separate page rather than loading in current page to speed up page loading time (NOTE: hierarchy page still needs work)

TODOs:

• Make current invoice documents private
• Fancy project layout mockups - keep tweaking #3 to improve contrast
• Collections page:
  • Put Project embed and Project Updates embed below their respective listings
  • Put each embed in a collapsible section
  • Add image upload option
• Discuss metrics
  • Metrics with lots of data
  • Consider how to handle old metrics that no longer track new data. Archive somehow?
  • Fun with math (e.g. combining multiple metrics)
  • Calculated Metrics on Dev site
• Use "Take Action" project to encourage students to get involved with sustainability (link from homepage?)
• Track down and resolve informational message on full listing page for Project Updates by Key Objective (see, e.g. Projects Updates for key objective: 1.0 iCAP 2020 Illinois Climate Action Plan)
• Why is the Achieve Zero Waste project map page not loading?

Michael's updates to the iCAP Portal:

• Project Creation/Update page: added checkboxes for "Make ____ field collapsible" for each textarea (Description, Background, Conclusion)
• Project page: added a fallback message when there’s no content in the center column so the right-hand sidebar doesn't show up in the middle (e.g. Reduce Emissions from Travel)
• Project Header Layout (e.g. LEED Certification project): added padding below header image
• Theme pages (e.g. Energy theme page)
  • Added padding between Project Hierarchy & Other Projects
  • Moved to live site
• Set "Standard Project Layout" for all projects w/o a Project Layout already set
• Started work on advanced project search, see Project Search (DEV)

TODOs:

• Theme pages (e.g. Energy theme page): make description collapsible (may not want this any more - TBD)
• Theme pages (e.g. Land and Water theme page): can we put a max height on the images so portrait images aren't enormous?
• Projects Updates page: make search tips collapsible and put them after fields
• Project Search (DEV): order of search fields should match table columns
• Discuss metrics at next meeting
  • Metrics with lots of data
  • Outdated metrics
  • Fun with math (e.g. combining multiple metrics)
• Show the recent project history of the project Associated with an iCAP Objective on that Objective’s page
• Review the look of the related files on the Fancy Project Page layout at our next meeting. Right now, it looks like this:
  

Meredith Moore, Morgan White, and Sarthak Prasad provided iCAP Portal training for the iCAP Team clerks at iSEE. 

Michael showed updates to the iCAP Portal:

• Added instructions below each map on live site
• Added image gallery for each theme, e.g. Dev site Energy Theme page (currently on dev2, not yet moved to live site)
• Metrics: removed "(Tracked by ...)" from titles
• New Project nodes default to "Sticky at top of lists" so they show up at top of search results
• Collections: changed Project Updates to look like other 3 sections; show only 1 update
• Collections: migrated Collections page updates to live site
• Image Gallery: made bg behind images white instead of blue, so transparent images don't have blue background

TODOs:

• Confirm it's safe to delete Collections on a dev site before deleting Collections on live site
• Project Collection page bug: project hierarchy shows all Collections for each project rather than only current Collection
• Create project page bug: input fields are overflowing their containers in Firefox
• Show listing of public/private projects

Below is sustainability intern, Alec McKay's permission request to use Jonathan Tomkin's lecture materials for the Land & Water theme. Professor Tomkin gave permission for his materials to be published on the theme page.

Hi Jonathan!

My name is Alec McKay, the guy who messed up scheduling the ENSU 310 final last semester, and I’m an intern working for Morgan White, the Associate Director for Sustainability. We’re working on updating the primary projects on the iCAP Portal. Here is an example of what the primary project page for the Land & Water theme looks like: https://icap.sustainability.illinois.edu/project/responsible-stewardship-campus-land-and-water

Our target audience is incoming freshmen and current students who are interested in sustainability at UIUC but have little to no knowledge about it. One of the things we want a primary project page to do is provide some motivation and background information for the theme. In the context of Land & Water, we’d like to answer the question, “Why conserve water?”

I think some of the videos from your Introduction to Sustainability Coursera course would be great for this! May I have your permission to put some of the videos from your course on the iCAP Portal? I don’t know how the copyright and intellectual property laws work, so is there any specific way you would want or need to be credited?

If you want more information regarding what we’re changing on the iCAP portal, feel free to let me know!

Thanks!

Alec

We would prefer to keep the ability to add new projects to a very limited few people.  Instead of giving Liz access to add a project, let’s get a quick process to add them upon her request. 

1)      Please email me, Meredith, and Sarthak with a short project description, and the proposed new iCAP Project location in the hierarchy. 

2)      Meredith and/or I will confirm the placement in the hierarchy.

3)      Sarthak will add a blank private project as a placeholder and email you.

4)      Liz or anyone in the SSC with access will fill in the project information and change it to public.
