It’s possible that users will have email and SMS templates with similar
names, and will send them depending on their users’ contact preferences.
So it’s useful to be able to compare how many emails vs SMS you’re
sending, even if the template names are similar.
The dashboard looked a bit table-y. This commit makes four main changes:
- show a bar chart (drawn in CSS) for template usage (only shown if
you’ve used more than one template recently)
- only break down template usage by template name, not template type
(because that’s happening with the big numbers)
- change the style of the ‘show more’ links under each section so that
they are all consistent, and a little less busy (one less keyline)
- remove the ‘recent templates‘ title so that the first two sections of
the page group under ‘in the last 7 days’
- adds a background colour, to words wrapped in `<code>` tags, like we
have for whole snippets of code
- reduces the font size of all code blocks
a) to differentiate them further
b) to fit more on the screen
This commit does two main things:
- adds textboxes to the send yourself a test page, so you can replace
((name)) with ‘Chris’, or whatever your name is
- rejigs the send page a bit to make it clearer what the CSV upload is
for and how to use it
The idea being that, since most users go into ‘send yourself a test’
first, it teaches them about how placeholders work by making them do the
replacing themselves.
When previewing a template on the send page, having the recipient appear
as a placeholder should help reinforce the relationship between the
columns in the CSV and the placeholders.
Then, when previewing a message, having the template populated with the
first recipient’s email address/phone number should reinforce that
relationship again.
Make it clear that this section is about what you’ve used, ie your usage
Click ‘breakdown’ to see how the maths is done, and what time period it
covers.
Takes the number of emails and SMS fragments sent from:
https://github.com/alphagov/notifications-api/pull/273
Using these numbers it’s possible to show:
- how much of your allowance is left
- or how much you have spent
For now the allowance and rates are hard coded.
Only for users that have manage service.
If they API returns no statistics for a given time period we should
assume that this is equivalent to 0. This means that the template can
always rely on the dictionary having the same keys.
We saw lots of people in the lab clicking activity hoping for…
something. But it’s not really where you go to do a thing, so they
weren’t finding what they were looking for.
Since you can now get to the activity from the dashboard, let’s remove
the link in the nav, to make thing less ambiguous.
The big numbers on the home page relate directly to the notifications on
the notification page. So let’s link them. With a _hyper_ link.
This commit actually adds two links, one of which is semantically
correct, and one of which is visually correct, ie makes the whole black
area of the box clickable/hoverable.
We were getting some weirdness like ‘Failed both’.
This commit fixes the problem, and adds some tests for the page headings
to make sure they don’t break again.
