In some cases it’s not appropriate for teams to have GOV.UK branding.
But they all start with it by default, if we can’t make a better guess.
We should be more explicit about this to reduce the number of teams
sending emails with the wrong branding.
We get a few tickets at the moment where people are asking for the
branding they already have.
We think that playing back the name of the branding on this page should
reduce how often that happens.
Letting people input a bit of free text should reduce the amount of back
and forth we have to do over support tickets when setting up someone’s
branding.
If something else is the only option then we don’t show the radio button
at all and have just the free text input on the page (not behind a
progressive disclosure).
Users who work in local government can’t have GOV.UK branding on their
emails. And only those working for Companies House (for example) can
request the Companies House branding.
This commit adds:
- new choices of email branding, which offer the name of the branding,
rather than the style
- logic to filter this list to only the applicable options, based on
what we know about the user, service and organisation
This is a change from the previous approach which put the onus on users
to figure out the style of branding they wanted, when we might already
know that a lot of the options weren’t available to them, or would be
inconsistent with the branding of other services in their organisation.
We want GPs to be able to accept the agreement online. But at the moment
they don’t get automatically assigned to organisations. So we need to
let them enter the agreement accepting journey even if they don’t have
an organisation set up.
It’s possible to delete default letter contact blocks because there is a
fallback – having a blank letter contact block. This is different to SMS
senders and reply to addresses.
For this to make sense it also means:
- adding the ‘blank’ letter contact block to the list of letter contact
blocks
- having a way of setting the default back to being blank
The service organisation type will either be the same as the org type of
the service's organisation or will be set by a user when creating a new
service. This removes the ability to change it from the platform admin
settings table.
Most users don’t have multiple contact blocks. So by default it should
feel like you’re just editing the one contact block, rather than
managing a collection of them. So this page skips the ‘choose’ page when
the user doesn’t yet have any contact blocks.
The ‘make this default’ checkbox should be shown, except when:
- the user is adding their first email reply to address (because the
first one has to be the default)
- they’re editing the existing default (because they can’t change it
to be not default)
