New user process should encourage you to set up a garden in more detail; so compatibility scores are relevant

Open CloCkWeRX opened this issue 9 years ago • 3 comments

I didn't understand why all of the guides seemed to have a 0 next to them.

There was no title or tooltip explaining the mystery number, and clicking on it did nothing apart from view, despite a mouseover css affect.

It wasn't until later with this tooltip that I realised why it was showing 0: image

To improve this:

  • When a user creates account, fills out profile; the next step should be to describe a garden
  • If a user does not have a completed garden, do not show compatibility scores in the list view as it will always be 0
  • Add a title attribute to explain what the compatibility score is

Good thoughts.

A tooltip should definitely be added.

Users get a garden added automatically, and we pre-fill it. Originally this happened because a user got asked to create it during account creation, but we've gotten rid of it. Maybe it should be discussed whether a garden should still automatically be added?

I think its a lot more relevant to a user to describe a garden during signup, at least in some detail, than stuff like username/password/etc which is just administrivia from their point of view.

As a user, I want to find the most relevant guides for what I intend to plant. Being asked a few questions - what kind of soil is in your garden? Do you have any preferences? Do you know the ph? makes a fair amount of sense if I can clearly see this will be used to find relevant info.
