weeksio: I'd say just start with making the URL searchable IMO - from the URL page you can access all the relationships anyway
2015-07-22 20356, 2015

Eventually we might want to be able to get and display more info but as a start, being able to find the url seems good enough
2015-07-22 20306, 2015

(especially if you can do things like "show me all the urls for example.com"

there are link tables between urls and their connected entities, but finding out the entity type from what's available in the url table seems maybe undoable?
2015-07-22 20310, 2015
reosarevok
I'd imagine you'd need to just check for whether the URL is entity0 / entity1 in all the appropriate l_x_url tables
2015-07-22 20315, 2015

But I might be forgetting an easier way

my sqlalchemy skills are rudimentary (if existent)
I suppose we should check to make sure that the URL starts with http

ruaok, http is correct. they don't have a working https cert
2015-07-22 20350, 2015
ruaok
kepstin-laptop: yes, they didn't enter http:// in front of their URL when they signed up and I didn't double check it.
2015-07-22 20309, 2015
kepstin-laptop
oh, right, add that to the field verification on the form :)

Gentlecat
I thought that fancy new validation in HTML5 would catch that
2015-07-22 20329, 2015
kepstin-laptop
you have to remember that the html5 validation fields are just an optionally-supported display convenience. you still have to validate everything server-side as well...

ruaok enters a bug for Gentlecat

ah good. comments on MBS-1801 suggest that we can try a simple approach first. thats a good start.
Yeah, I'm sure some people ignore them intentionally, but we should go first for the ones who just don't know or just don't use email

We know they exist because we employed one for a while, right kuno? :p

Yeah
2015-07-22 20323, 2015

But I suspect in the age of Facebook, a fair amount of people just don't check email very often because they expect to see anything when they visit the site

as Ben mentioned on MBS-1801, we've got a working messaging system set up for BB
it's quite simple but we've already got 1:n messaging

ruaok
yeah, my first goal is to understand what problem we're trying to solve.
2015-07-22 20315, 2015
ruaok
then we'll look at solutions. :)
2015-07-22 20325, 2015

but thanks for offering a solution.

I don't recognize myself in either of the two options ruaok gives on the ticket

I think b) is probably the main problem, people not checking their email or having thousands of unread messages wouldn't see mb notifications
2015-07-22 20345, 2015
kuno
ruaok: I agree with that :)
2015-07-22 20327, 2015

everyone is too scared to message you? :P

For me the main thing is that I'm not in the mood for dealing with MB when I get those emails. I want to be reminded of that stuff when I visit MB, because when I visit MB is the moment I'm in the mood for editing/discussing edits/etc...
2015-07-22 20353, 2015
reosarevok
That's also a good point
2015-07-22 20300, 2015
Leo_Verto
Indeed, people might just forget they've gotten a mb-related e-mail when they visit the site again
2015-07-22 20311, 2015
kuno
if I visit MB frequently enough, I can respond/edit/etc... without getting any email. If I haven't responded to a question within a few days, it's OK to send me a reminder email then.

(in general though, I do respond to edit response notifications I get through email. it's the subscriptions I mostly ignore because I'm not in the mood for MB)
