The send yourself a test feature is useful for two things: - constructing an email/text message/letter without uploading a CSV file - seeing what the thing your going to send will look like (either by getting it in your inbox or downloading the PDF) - learning the concept of placeholders, ie understanding they’re thing that gets populated with _stuff_ The problem we’re seeing is that the current UI breaks when a template has a lot of placeholders. This is especially apparent with letter templates, which have a minimum of 7 placeholders by virtue of the address. The idea behind having the form fields side-by-side was to help people understand the relationship between their spreadsheet columns and the placeholders. But this means that the page was doing a lot of work, trying to teach: - replacement of placeholders - link between placeholders and spreadsheet columns The latter is better explained by the example spreadsheet shown on the upload page. So it can safely be removed from the send yourself a test page – in other words the fields don’t need to be shown side by side. Showing them one-at-a-time works well because: - it’s really obvious, even on first use, what the page is asking you to do - as your step through each placeholder, you see the message build up with the data you’ve entered – you’re learning how replacement of placeholders works by repetition This also means adding a matching endpoint for viewing each step of making the test letter as a PDF/PNG because we can’t reuse the view of the template without any placeholders filled any more.
