Any clues?

hi @premnas1

1st please always paste errors within the code block syntax (```)

2nd: as the error states, you have a typo in defaults.json

make sure you don't modify that file unless you know what you're doing

(more info on that on https://github.com/DemocracyOS/dos-config)

@kpoman

Hello ! I installed latest DOS. I have 2 questions: 1) is there a multiple choice option for polls (for example having to chose x candidates from a multiple list), and 2) how can we enable voting by some temporary token, say delivered code via email or whatever, allowing those tokens to be used for one specific voting session or selection of topics ?

and is there more documentation available somewhere ? I found it way too succint for the big amount of code there

frn

@franciclo

hi @kpoman , there is no multiple choice in polls, you can define your options on the topic form and only one option can be selected.
there is no token based voting as you describe, you can limit voting by a time frame, setting a closing date for your topic.
Check out the docs in docs.democracyos.org

kpoman

@kpoman

Thanks @franciclo ! just curious: those possibilities are out of cogitation and the tool is frozen in functionality by choice ?

frn

@franciclo

Making the participation methods more dynamic is something we are discussing, there are a few we would like to implement, if you like, create an issue with the functionality you would like to see in DemocracyOS or you can send us an email to speak@democracyos.io

Hello

Homerade

@Homerade

Hey, just a quick question after browsing the D-OS pages....
Looks like this is whole, self-contained software and not something you can drop into an existing app.

Is that right or am I missing some part when it can be imported as a library...?

frn

@franciclo

thats right @Homerade , its a web app, how do you imagine it could work within another app? (im curious)

Homerade

@Homerade

@franciclo just as something I could add in to my react app. Was researching voting mechanisms too add as part of an app that displays local ordinances.

frn

@franciclo

@Homerade That would be really cool, hope you find it, good luck

Hello, I work for the French Biodiversity Agency. We'd like to use DemocracyOs to let a wilder audience helps public decision in ecology, and manage to deploy it... But we face a notification issue : no mail is sent by the application (when service is set to 'mailer', we get a ERRCONN 58 error, when we set it to gmail the entry is added to mongo but it never seems to be processed). Can we get some help ? Thanks in advance !

AlexLyko

@AlexLyko

Ok, problem solved using an external SMTP service, putting mailer to {} and adding properties into nodemailer only. Not specified into documentation. By the way, I had to set up numerous MongoDb versions and the last one working was 3.4. Have a nice day.

Now I have another issue : my forum page is empty, whereas I publishing topics in it. Do I miss something ? Thanks in advance !

It seems to be a package npm version error (npm WARN react-paginate@5.0.0 requires a peer of react@^16.0.0 but none was installed.

Hi there! I was wondering if there is any docs to channel new proposals notifications through socket.io to implement a native mobile app that provides push notifications when new proposals are available. Thanks in advance!

@lazmo88

Very interesting project :) Is there a way to add further verification of users? Like confirmation of email and mobile?

lazmo88

@lazmo88

It would be also great to integrate with 3rd party identity verification system so we can be 100% sure that registrations are valid.

@ZerooCool

Hello, thank you for your return for the advice to use Heroku.
I would prefer to use OnPremises, but I would also look for Heroku.

If you can read my tutorial in French, step by step, for the moment, I am trying to improve it to deploy DemocracyOS with OnPremises.
Your tests and your help would be appreciated.

For now, I'm stuck with the configuration files, I do not know how to create it yet and what to put it. It's not so easy.
