Hi @gautamig54 I'll start off with assignment. If you want to exchange any portion. You can edit then.
Thanks !!1

Great start here!! I can see some planning issues for your project. Is there any central planning issue where links to all the sub-planning issues can be found or we can discuss general project direction, goal priority, etc? Thanks!

@CleverFool77 division of work is perfect. Let's get started on with it!

@gauravano We can refer to #4922 as central planning issue.
Should I reopen it or make a new one?
Thanks!

Hi @jywarren @gauravano
As most of the portions in Design issues are dependent. So I'm taking two issues sideways. As some parts or portions of some issues are dependent on each other and it might make us to stop for a while as we are unable to move further.
I just opened one PR for beginning the work for People section #5740 . And till it would get reviewed and merged. I wanted to begin the work in Questions Page.

So mainly, I wanted to ask that What's the purpose of image and info in First section.

Sounds great!

I think the image tagged by you at #5733 (comment) is kind of example of what a question looks like or it's more like representing that one can ask questions and collaborate. (Let's wait for @jywarren on this, we don't want to start with some many /like/ :smile: ). Also, I think, we can also add GIF showing typing a question and posting it, instead of an empty textbox?

@CleverFool77 it's a feature. I can give you code for that but wait, the new design is different. I think we can use the feature for the static part as we have now. In that case, you can create the feature locally and can give us code in a gist. But, again, let's confirm from @jywarren about the content part and whether it would be fine to have feature for that?

Thanks!!

Hi @gauravano According to new design , we can have it to not have as a feature. What do you say. Let's wait @jywarren's view.
Regarding gif feature of showing typing and posting process. You mean in first section ?

@CleverFool77 I think, the description is the latest question asked by the logged in user and the link to the responds. The image is the profile image of the user. It is a valid feature. If a user hasn't asked any questions, we can show as no question asked in the description.

Ohh I thought the description is information based of community building like You can Ask questions here and etc.
First, I did thought it's profile picture but now I'm thinking what would be use putting of profile picture here.
So I wanted to someone to clear doubt.
Thanks !!!

Same thought. Let's wait for @jywarren.

Hi all! Let's do everything above the "What's your question" form as a feature, so it can be tweaked. We'll assume the speech bubble and profile image is a static image for now (can work on this later, and we'd love help making that, but it can be prototyped and saved in a Gist for copying into the Features system).

The form below should actually be a questions form. But we can look to the one at /questions/new, and as a model. However we made this one much simpler, so let's aim for simplicity!

Thanks, all!

Hi @jywarren
Regarding first section, I'll write the code and share the link of gist here.
So the first section would have a static image and some information like Ask the community in right side of it. What would be there after clicking the Learn more link ? Should it be linked to wiki ?
Thanks !!!!

gautamig54 commented May 21, 2019

@CleverFool77 There is a wiki regarding Q and A (https://publiclab.org/wiki/public-lab-q-and-a). You can link "learn more" to that.
So are we leaving the on hover description to the static image for now?
Thanks!

I am starting with the questions input form and I had a few doubts.
The "Next" option will link to the questions editor like the "continue" in the present ui?
and what are the other options here?
Thanks!

I have a doubt for the further implementation of this page.
In the featured questions section, we are initially displaying just the two of them(mostly top two). But there are a lot of featured questions. How are we going to display the rest of them?
One thing that can be done is directing to a separate page which has all the featured questions which needs to be created and designed as we currently do not have it.
How do we proceed @jywarren @gauravano ??

Hi @jywarren I have been wondering the same thing that what would be considered main distinction to get these two feature questions ?

Having a separate page for featured questions is a nice idea. Let's ask @publiclab/community-reps about the need of such page? The top two featured questions can be the most recent ones like we do for the blog. Thanks!

Hi @jywarren I was working on th features questions section fr questions page. So I wanted to ask that Is popular questions tab in questions page right now is the future features questions section for shadow_question page ? Or is it something else ?

@gautamig54

Yes @CleverFool77. For now we can refer featured questions as the present popular questions. Meanwhile, I will start working for the recent questions and the tags section.

I think featured questions could be managed through a tag like featured which is added. So then we could show just 2-3 on this page, then have a link to "more featured questions" which goes to, for example, https://publiclab.org/questions/tag/featured

How does this sound?

We are looking to be able to highlight really good questions that are especially representative of environmental issues, and so far, "popular" hasn't been a perfect metric to bring those kinds forward. So we thought of a manually curated set as a way to improve what is shown. Does this make sense? Thank you!

So, the curators (like @publiclab/community-reps) would look for questions that are clearly phrased, address an environmental issue, and maybe that have been really well answered, so as to model for the community what it looks like also to get good answers. These examples would help to shape participation on the site by modeling our ideal interactions!
