We’ve seen lots of users unsure what the ‘template name’ field is for,
especially on first use. Is it the subject line of the text message?
Will it be who the message comes from? Answer: neither.
So this commit adds a hint to make that clearer.
Because ‘Send text messages’ isn’t very helpful if you’re looking to
edit a template.
It also helps front-load the navigation, ie ‘Team’ is the first word,
rather than the more generic ‘Manage’.
Underscores at the start of filenames are a convention that’s supposed
to tell a preprocessor to ignore a file. Since we’re explicitly
specifying which files need to be preprocessed, this isn’t necessary.
Also, it makes SASS lint throw a warning.
Previously the ‘get started’ block on the dashboard pushed users into
starting with a text message. This led to users writing email content
into a tet message template because it didn’t match their expectations.
Also, the ‘send yourself a test’ link from the dashboard:
- wasn’t much used, because users responded to the similar call to
action on the choose template page instead
- was confusing if you had created an email template because it
presupposed that you’d created a text message template
So this commit changes the ‘get started’ block to be a choice between
creating an email template or a text message template. We reckon that
the language of ‘set up’ will help establish that templates are not
equivalent to individual messages. This language is now repeated on the
‘choose template’ page when you don’t have templates as well.
of the name against a list of all service email_from fields.
Update find_all_service_names to find_all_service_email_from, which returns the email_from of all services.
In the navigation you should see either:
- manage team
- view team members
This depends on which permissions you have. You shouldn’t see both at
once. There was a bug which meant you could see both. This commit fixes
that bug.

When the first heading on the page is inside a grid row, it doesn’t
vertically align properly with the navigation. This is because it
isn’t targeted by the selector that does this for pages without
an initial grid row.
This commit:
- adds an extra selector to target these headings
- makes the ‘add new thing’ buttons maintain their alignment with
the page heading
A new permission has been added, view_activity, to resolve this issue.
Another pull request in notifications-admin will be required to update all users with a default permission of view_activity.
When the user clicks ‘GOV.UK Notify’ in the header, they should, by
default, be redirected to the dashboard for their service. They should
only see the ‘Choose service’ page if they have multiple services.
This also allows some logic to be factored out of the template, so one
route now handles all this redirection.
In the future we might want to keep the last-used service in the
session, and always redirect to that. But for now, this should fix most
of the confusion for first-time users.
