Commons 2.4.0

I’ve just released version 2.4.0 of the CUNY Academic Commons. This is a feature release for the Commons, one of our twice-yearly versions that includes major improvements on top of our typical bug fixes and maintenance.

Our attention during the 2.4.0 release cycle has been focused on our ongoing site redesign. Since version 2.0.0, we have done a visual and structural overhaul of the home page, our about/informational pages, our help documentation, and member pages/CVs.

In version 2.4.0, we’ve given the same treatment to individual groups. Groups are a locus of collaboration on the site, and we’ve worked hard to extend our new visual aesthetic to all parts the Group toolbox.

In addition to a reskin of Groups, we’ve also redesigned the invitation modal that can be accessed throughout the site.
