Since broadcast services can only have one type of template we probably
don’t need to disambiguate what kind of template you’re creating.
And you’ve just come from a page where the button says ‘New template’,
without the choice of radios after, so it’s nice for the page title to
match that.
Broadcasting is not a precise technology, because:
- cell towers are directional
- their range varies depending on whether they are 2, 3, 4, or 5G
(the higher the bandwidth the shorter the range)
- in urban areas the towers are more densely packed, so a phone is
likely to have a greater choice of tower to connect to, and will
favour a closer one (which has a stronger signal)
- topography and even weather can affect the range of a tower
So it’s good for us to visually indicate that the broadcast is not as
precise as the boundaries of the area, because it gives the person
sending the message an indication of how the technology works.
At the same time we have a restriction on the number of polygons we
think and area can have, so we’ve done some work to make versions of
polygons which are simplified and buffered (see
https://github.com/alphagov/notifications-utils/pull/769 for context).
Serendipitously, the simplified and buffered polygons are larger and
smoother than the detailed polygons we’ve got from the GeoJSON files. So
they naturally give the impression of covering an area which is wider
and less precise.
So this commit takes those simple polygons and uses them to render the
blue fill. This makes the blue fill extend outside the black stroke,
which is still using the detailed polygons direct from the GeoJSON.

form and associated tests.
Makes it inherit from GovukTextInputField.
Changes to govuk_field_widget to allow the value
attribute to be set by passing a value keyword
argument to the __call__ method.
Includes changes to templates that use this form
and associated tests.
We had two identical callback form classes. One for delivery callbacks
and one for inbound sms callbacks. Since they did not differ I consolidated
them into one CallbackForm class that they both inherited from previously.
I also substituted field classes for this form with new fields
that cooperate with gov uk frontend.
ListEntry component uses FieldList field to group
textboxes. Textboxes can be text inputs, email fields
or international phone number fields. This converts
all field-lists to use:
- GovukTextInputField
- GovukEmailField
- InternationalPhoneNumber
Affects these forms:
- OrganisationDomainsForm
- GuestList
Also changes to related Javascript:
Update list-entry JS tests to match new HTML
Updates the HTML the JS operates on in the test
(a fixture representing the HTML in the page on
load) to match the new GOVUK Frontend we are
generating.
Make list-entry JS work with GOVUK Frontend HTML
The existing list-entry JS did a few things that
clashed with how the new HTML works:
- added a 'input-' prefix to the id attributes
of all text-inputs
- did not make its name and id attributes values
match
The new HTML has id and name attributes that
match so these changes remove the prefix for id
attributes and makes them match the name
attribute.
To understand these changes, it is useful to
know how the values for id and name attributes are
generated:
1. the id attribute for the component element is
stored
2. the 'list-entry-' prefix is removed and the
remainder is used to generate ids
For example, if the component's id is
'list-entry-domains', the id will be 'domains-1',
where the text-input is the first one.
This also adds some logic to the HoganJS template
to make the value attribute optional, so it is
only added if it has a non-null value. This
matches the behaviour of the text-input component
used in the new list-entry component.
Also change whitelist references to guestlist in tests
- we forgot to do it earlier, when we moved from calling this
feature whitelist to calling it guestlist.
Changes its:
- StringFields to GovukTextInputFields
- EmailFields to GovukEmailFields
Includes changes to templates that use this form
and associated tests.
Updates StringField to GovukTextInputField.
These changes also affect the following forms that
inherit from BaseTemplateForm:

and associated tests.
Changes those fields in the following forms:
- SearchByNameForm
- SearchUsersByEmailForm
- SearchUsersForm
- SearchNotificationsForm
Includes changes to templates that use this form
and associated tests.
Changes those classes so they have the same
interface as a GOVUK field when instantiated and
render GovukTextInputField HTML.
Includes changes to templates that use this form
and associated tests.
Changes those fields (and sometimes also regular text input fields)
in the following forms:
- LoginForm
- RegisterUserForm
- ChangeEmailForm
- FeedbackOrProblem
- AcceptAgreementForm
- ChangeNameForm (only name field here, but used in the same template
field as ChangeEmailForm here: app/templates/views/user-profile/change.html)
Also includes changes to templates that use this form
and associated tests.
Converts them directly in the following forms:
- LoginForm
- ConfirmPasswordForm
Changes the password function to return
GovukPasswordField instead of PasswordField which
effects the following forms:
- RegisterUserForm
- RegisterUserFromInviteForm
- RegisterUserFromOrgInviteForm
- NewPasswordForm
- ChangePasswordForm
It also updates StringField on RegisterUserFromOrgInviteForm
to GovukTextInputField
Also includes changes to templates that use this
form and associated tests.
At the moment viewing a broadcast is limited to those users who have
the `send_messages` permission.
This doesn’t match how we describe the permissions on the team members
page
This commit makes it so that any team member can see a broadcast that’s
in any state other than `draft`.
If a library has groups, we should show a link instead of selecting the
group directly.
Then we can give the user the choice of selecting the whole of that
group, or specific areas within the group.
For now the only libraries we have with groups are local authorities,
which group electoral wards.
Password managers will try to guess what they should save as a username
by looking at the fields on the page where you set up your password.
When registering from an invite the email address (what we use as a
username) is predefined, and only shown on the page as text, not an
input.
This commit also adds a hidden input field for password managers to pick
up.

We’ve decided that this feature should be self-service, and on by
default for all users. Before we can make it on by default we should
give users a way to switch it off for themselves. Which is what this PR
does.
At the moment they will get a ‘technical difficulties’ error if they
try.
We probably want to do something around letting people self-approve
broadcasts in trial mode, but for now just telling them they can’t is a
better experience than ‘technical difficulties’ (and will probably be
close to what they should see on a live service as well).
This is an initial, prototype-quality attempt at introducing some kind
of tour for users new to broadcasting. A lot of the users we’re speaking
to don’t have a good concept of what broadcasting means, which is
causing usability problems down the line.
We did a similar thing in the early days of Notify to explain the
concept of message templates and personalisation.
This now adds validation for invalid characters on the
LetterAddressForm for one off letters. It also adds a validation failed
message for uploaded letters, precompiled letters sent through the API,
and CSV rows with errors.
This is what we do on the uploads page now. It makes it more obvious
why your search term has returned a certain result if you can see most
of the address, not just the first line.
We recently introduced a form control that lets user choose when a
broadcast ends.
Based on the most recent research participant, we think:
- there is a specific misunderstanding of what this control does
- there is a general low level of understanding of what a ‘broadcast’
means
People will try to understand what a ‘broadcast’ is by using mental
models they have for other kinds of messaging, for example text
messages.
Other kinds of messaging are one-to-one, i.e. they go from a sender to a
recipient. They are not ongoing in any way.
Emails and texts are sent at a time (and for all practicable purposes
are received at that same time). So, when we present the user with
a form that controls time, they might well assume it controls the time
when the message will be sent.
This is a feature we offer for sending messages using a spreadsheet, and
that’s where we’ve borrowed this pattern from.
We reinforce this assumption with the labelling of the form control. By
front-loading it with the word ‘When’ we are playing to the users
confirmation bias, i.e. they are interpreting the meaning of the control
in a way that confirms their prior beliefs about how messaging works.
So this commit does two things:
- re-labels the form to front-load the word ‘End’ not ‘When’
- adds text to the page explaining when the broadcast will start, so
there’s a chance of overriding that confirmation bias
If we can get users to go through this before sending a broadcast for
real, it could help them learn what a broadcast is, and how it differs
from sending text messages.
The checkboxes need an accessible name that
identifies the folder/template and this needs to
include their full path to avoid duplication.
There's a lot of debate about how to write out
breadcrumb/path syntax so this just puts all the
words together under the assumption that the
folder naming will describe the path (and to
introduce as little extra semantics as possible
to start with).
Moves the link out of the label and increases
the hit-size for the checkbox. The intention is to
reduce the chance of clicking the wrong thing by
accident.
This includes a TODO in the checkboxes component
template code. The item meta needs to be
associated with the checkbox input by use of
`aria-describedby` but this needs changes in
govuk-frontend-jinja to happen.
