We should allow users to add a link to their web site

[timlinux]

Problem

It would be good to have a link to the users organisation in the popup for a user. We should include some basic spam protection (perhaps requiring a moderator to approve links before they can be made available on the map would be an option).

Proposed solution

• [x] Add a url field to the user data model
• [x] Update the forms so that the url can be added and validated
• [ ] Implement some kind of integrity check to ensure the link is not to a 'dodgy' site

  Expected outcome

Users should be able to provide a link back to their organisation.

Hi @timlinux, do you have idea how to check if the website is 'dodgy'? other than checked by moderator

[timlinux]

Yeah I dont have a quick answer for this other than to have a moderated property on the user record that inidcates whether the link has been checked, The checked flag should be cleared whenever a user alters their link. Having a moderators view that lets admins go through links and accept or decline them would be great.

so this one should implement admin page?
