Template for Service Description #300

Closed genismauri closed 8 years ago

genismauri commented 8 years ago

When publishing a service, in the step 1) "Set Global Properties", the gaps to fill should be as follows. Notice the formatting, spaces, etc. proposed. All text JUSTIFIED by default:

[Write the description of the service here]

FEATURES

BENEFITS

SUPPORT

PRICE

CONTACT

xeviscc commented 8 years ago

Take into account that the SERVICE PRICE, the PLAFTORM PRICE and the SERVER SIZE REQUIRED comes from other fields. image

It cannot be done that way. We can try to set the PRICE in the last position when it is showed in the detail.

"It cannot be done that way. We can try to set the PRICE in the last position when it is showed in the detail" @xeviscc could you please clarify this? I don't get it.

When referring to "Size of the Entity: [Filled automatically from the Size field of the "Set Global Properties" form (ie Small, Medium, Large, Extra-Large)]" I mean to take the number from the gap required above. Are we talking about the same thing?

xeviscc commented 8 years ago

Yes.

The thing is that the template has all the information as "free text" and the prices comes separately from other fields. We cannot take the "free text" and parse it modify it with the custom parameters and show it. So the better approach is to put the template "free text" in the first place and the PRICE section after that.

genismauri commented 8 years ago

I see we have to 2 options:

1) Add all the free-text fields first + then the automatic Pricing

[Write the description of the service here]

FEATURES

BENEFITS

SUPPORT

CONTACT [Write your name here] [Write your phone number here] [Write your e-mail here]

PRICE

2) Create required gaps (like the ones you did with the pricing) for all sections, so the service file would be created automatically based on the introduced info > that would be suitable

xeviscc commented 8 years ago

To do that a huge modification on the platform has to be done. First one has been applied.

genismauri commented 8 years ago

OK, it's something. We will check it again in the next release ;)

Does the following screenshot work for you? image

genismauri commented 8 years ago

A couple of things:

xeviscc commented 8 years ago
  1. The inclusion or not of the name and e-mail is responsibility of the publisher, as it is FREE TEXT.
  2. True, will fix it.
  3. As in the point 1. The inclusion or not of the FEATURES and BENEFITS is the publisher's responsibility as it is FREE TEXT.
genismauri commented 8 years ago

The inclusion or not of the name and e-mail is responsibility of the publisher, as it is FREE TEXT > Sure, but I was pointing out not to include the tags "name" and "email" in the Contact section.

See this for instance, tags are not necessary: image

xeviscc commented 8 years ago

I understand, but as I said before, even the part that states Name, Surname: and E-mail: are free text, not depending on the platform, so the publishers could choose to add it or to delete it.

xeviscc commented 8 years ago

@genismauri Could you check te resolution and close the issue if it is solved.

genismauri commented 8 years ago

Is this free text? (belongs to Clearò) Or with the implemented changes for CONTACT and PRICE sections should have been fixed?

xeviscc commented 8 years ago

Here I attach a screenshot: image

Here you can see the Service Price/Platform Price/Size specific inputs. From that info we create the PRICE section at the end. The others comes from the Service Description. As you can see there is a template inside the text box in order to give the user some hints in how he can organize the text.

The user could duplicate each part, the user could dubplicate the PRICE, the user could write not formated text, the user could create a brand new section, the user could write anything as it is FREE TEXT

Looks good now, thanks!
