linkbook's Issues

Notifications issue.

A user is receiving notifications of his own comments and upvotes. This shouldn't be the case.

Need a faster way for retrieving open graph data

Open graph data must be stored in DB or faster methods must be used for feed.

Wrong link in Navbar Menu for Profile

Upvotes/downvotes on grey link cards

New page for wordcloud

Add aboutus page

Decide Color Scheme

Current one sucks.

Button for upvoted links

Blurred Google+ DP

Apparently, Google has updated its privacy policy and we cant fetch high quality DP without an API Key.

In link.html, copy to clipboard button is overlapping links (see preview)

New book/link creation

Upon making a new link or book, when I click the submit button multiple times, it leads to multiple instances of the same thing being created.

Pro geek idea of linkbook

The idea of linkbook on pro geek competition can now be improved with new features and screenshots.

Date and time

Need new formats for date and time on link page. Current format is too big.

Display message if an empty book is viewed.

Right now there's no message -

Can add a nice message like - "This book is empty! Click here to add a link to this book!"

Select option in new link form

In the new link form. Select element should have the first option as Choose your book.

Add favicon logo.

Profile pic cropper widget

Maybe we can use this:

Recommendations issue

A user should not receive recommendations of the users he has already followed.

Upvote/Downvote button and icon not in sync

link.html tags

Underlining of tags

We need to underline the tags on the links/book page and display a title accordingly to show that clicking on it will take us to different page rather than the link page

navbar fonts

Chip for page title

Options to flag/report malicious and inappropriate links

Some idea has to be developed so that Linkbook is not misused for storing content that shouldn't be on our site.

My idea - Employ a 'Flag as inappropriate' option, which sends mail on 3 or 5 flags to us to request action. Banning the user may be another dimension that can be thought upon at later stages.

@nikhilkumarsingh @himanshugupta1997 if you have any improvment in mind do mention

Navbar profile pic link

Currently profile pic on navbar is wrapped by anchor tag so a boundary get created around image.

Fix it.

Firefox is being a Bitch

1. View followers option

Firefox compatibility

Many of materialize CSS features don't work in Firefox and other browsers. We need to test these features and resolve them.

Popular links and books

Need to categorise popular links and books.

whom to follow?

Copy to clipboard issue

Add search bar

Improve Link Card icon (remove tag icon, improve comments bar for mobile)

Wrap og data with a tag

Modal for sign up

When user clicks "sign up locally" on Login modal, sign up form should appear on same modal.

Creation of profile page

A user profile page should be created, which can display things like name, number of links stored, or maybe a wordcloud?

Mobile Device views

1. Centring of link cards (everywhere)
   

2. यूजरनाम कट रहा है |
   

3. Individual Link View
   

4. Cards in view_links.html seem too big don't they? (also the centring)
   

5. Upon clicking "Popular Links" option in the profile page, while reloading the page automatically scrolls to the top for a moment and then comes down, which is not the case with "Popular books". Its a bit annoying to the eye.

6. Centring of the Edit link form (I may have missed something, many of them are not centred)
   

Index page not receiving user books

Index page must receive the user books for create new form. In fact, every page must receive this as new link form is in navbar now
