@ldaws003

Overview

We need a new issue form template that will allow project teams to add or revise an accomplishment for a specified year.

Action Items

Create an issue template in the .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE directory with the following aspects:

  • The form template should
    • Ask the following questions:
      • Project team (should be a drop down)
      • URL on hackforla.org website (should be a drop down)
      • Is this an addition or revision? (should be a dropdown with 2 options: addition, revision)
      • Year of accomplishment (should be a dropdown with options for selecting a year from 2020 to 2026)
      • A summary of the accomplishment (should be a text box)
    • Include the following at the bottom of the issue form template
      ### Resources
      - This is the file that will be edited: https://github.com/hackforla/website/blob/gh-pages/_data/internal/accomplishments.yml
      

For Merge Team

  • Once this issue's pr is merged, find the link to the newly created form on the Create new issue page.
    • Add the link to the form in the "Resources/Instructions" section where it says, "Link to newly created form: [INSERT LINK TO THE NEW FORM]" by replacing [INSERT LINK TO THE NEW FORM] with the link directly to the form.

    Can you confirm my understanding of the following?

    • "Project team" is a drop down list of projects (same list as the linked form in resources "Project Name" drop down field)
    • "URL on hackforla.org website" is in the format https://www.hackforla.org/projects/[PROJECT NAME HERE]
    • Merge team instructions are to be added to the end of my PR

    1. Yes, the Project Team will be a dropdown with the same list as "Project Name" in the example template
    2. Yes, since only the final part of the URL will vary, you can use the same format as in the example template where www.hackforla.org/projects/ can be listed above the dropdown, then the individial project paths are included in the dropdown list
    3. You actually don't need to worry about the merge team instructions, that part of the issue was formatted wrong when the author copied it over. I corrected it in the issue.

    One other note, the year range should go from 2020 to 2026. I also edited this issue to reflect that.
