Task Navigation 

Go behind the scenes!

P2PU is run by a community of volunteers in addition to a small team of staff.

    How do we delete tasks before the delete function is implemented? :)

    Specifically: http://new.p2pu.org/en/groups/getting-your-cc-project-funded/content/schedule-syllabus/ and http://new.p2pu.org/en/groups/getting-your-cc-project-funded/content/schedule-syllabus-2/

    Thanks!

    Which task would you like to remove? Let us know, and we'll try to help manually before the feature exists.

    Done :)

    Hi, I don't seem to be able to find on my dashboard (or elsewhere) a way of retrieveing older posts that are not showing on the default window. Is there a way of seeing these older posts?

    The "wall" currently scrolls into oblivion. The posts are still there, but there is no way to see them right now. Discussions that take place as part of a task, remain visible.

    Greetings! I have searched low and high but not come up with answers to my questions two, so I'm hoping for some enlightenment from here :)

    Question 1: Is there a way to REMOVE a task? I can't seem to find the right button to press.

    Question 2: Is there anything like the IRC/Chat integration of old P2PU?

    There is already a ticket for deleting tasks (it should be in new.p2pu.org by May 9th), but adding chat is not on the todo list yet.

    Hi Jonas,

    Seems like some important features won't be available for a few weeks. If chat is important communcation you may want to stay on the old site. Although it's not as pretty it works and has the features available you may need.

    Is there a way to host documents on the P2PU site? For instance, can I host a PDF of the textbook for my study group so that participants can download it from the course page?

    If not, I'm interested in how others have solved this in previous courses. I'll probably just use Dropbox, but I'm open to suggestions.

    Thanks!

    I don't believe there is file hosting capability on new.p2pu.org yet. The best thing to do is provide a link to and from the pdf.

    If the document is openly licensed, you could host it at Archive.org. You can also host stuff at Scribd (although make sure to select in the user profile that you don't want to charge people for downloads).

  • Stian Haklev   April 14, 2011, 11:20 p.m.

    Is there a way to add a second course organizer to my course?

    That feature is scheduled for release 0.5 as part of http://p2pu.lighthouseapp.com/projects/71002/tickets/129-offer-two-options-to-those-signing-up-for-a-study-group-participate-and-help-organise
