Add volunteer at zone level

[raghavio]

Right now you can't add a volunteer above AC using the add volunteer form. I'm assuming this is because of security reasons?

Anyway, Punjab team wants to add volunteers at Zone level. So yeah.

• Add a button "Add Volunteer Here" at the bottom of the add-volunteer page on state/zone/sector pages (any level above AC) .
• That should go to same URL with ?force=true
• Show the same add volunteer form with polling booth input hidden

@RaghavPro does it look like a good plan?

@anandology Why complicate it? Just make the polling booth entry to 'Not sure'. Like how we do if place is LB, PX or AC.

Now you are making it difficult to for people to add a volunteer at PB level if the person is on a state page.

In fact, I would like to provide a config setting later to decide what is the top most level where volunteers can be added. By default, it should be PB.

To make both the workflows possible, I would like to retain the current list of sub places with an optional force-add-here button. Clicking on that will go to same URL with ?force=true and that should show the form with booth field hidden.

What do you think?

Hmmm. Ok. But we need think a way to ease this out. Adding at PB from AC is also cumbersome.

I'm gonna do this: If you're at any place > AC We show the list of sub places and a 'Add volunteer here' button above it.

Sounds good?

This is done.
