Description

and We may have had this conversation already, but if we did, I can't find any trace of it. In the Drupal 7 system the Recent Activity report relied on the custom tables for summary page documents to determine what to show for the Document portion of the Recent Activity report, instead of recording the board for whose summary page a document was posted in the Drupal message object used to track events which need to be reflected on the home page. As a result, the Document section of the Recent Activity report in the Drupal 9 system is unable to find document postings which were made for a given board before the switch to the Drupal 9 version of the site. I can see that documents posted after the switch to Everglades are correctly reported (though I'm a little concerned that it's finding nothing for the Genetics board—perhaps they just haven't posted any documents in the past couple of months). So I need to know how you would like to have us address this gap in the report for older document postings.

  1. Don't worry about it, we can just use the reports for activity after the switch.

  2. Create ad-hoc reports for the older document activity as needed.

  3. Investigate modifying the message entities for document postings to see if we can add the correct board to each one.

  4. Some other course of action?

We're going to go with option #1. I'll talk to the Board managers at our next monthly EBMS meeting to explain this and also mention that Bob could create an ad-hoc report if needed.
