Improve / consolidate / condense information displayed on users#index

[carpodaster]

• [x] Remove common prefixes from interested_in's human readable form (e.g. "Helping as a: coach, mentor, remote coach") and transform it into a nice + short text block
• [x] Display cityand location as "Germany/Buxtehude" (depends on #82)
• [x] Add company name? Should also have a custom link if we add this.

Related question: what shall we do with users#show? Right now it's a bit of an unloved stepchild; there would be lots of space to display all the information we have trouble cramming into that user listing on #index.

@svenfuchs: does this reflect what we talked about in Slack yesterday?

@carpodaster yep, that's a good summary. I think the "I represent a company: 6wunderkinder" bit could be added to the "interested in" column. And yes, with a link, please :)

About user#show, yeah, adding this information would make sense.

Moving this into the Community Page milestone, since this is an integral part of the whole "community page" project 😉

We will need some redefinitions for this though.

Hey guys, @carpodaster @klappradla

obs.: The page is no longer users#index, but community instead.

I would like to confirm that you still want the same things. I also have some doubts about it.

Changes you guys want to do:

1. Remove "Interested In" field and replace it with a short text block (same column name?). That will include a small addition into users model (add an extra field for interests) and an addition into user#edit form too.

2. Instead of display two columns (country and city), we will display just one (column name can be 'location' ?) in the format: "Germany/Buxtehude"

3. Will we include company name?

[klappradla]

1 and 3 still make sense I'd say (can you 👍/👎 @carpodaster?) For 2: I'm pretty sure this is only out how city + country should be displayed in the view, not about changes to the datamodel :v:

[carpodaster]

I would not swap the interested in for a text field. Maybe an additional text field would make sense to give a bit more detail, but the predefined values for interested-in allow for better searching / categorizing (see also my comment on https://github.com/rails-girls-summer-of-code/rgsoc-teams/pull/849#pullrequestreview-61043457 about interested vs. coach role)

Other than that, I do not recall what I meant with the first item on the list :(

I would also assume that item no. 2 was about displaying the info, not having to different columns. The column name "location" makes sense, yes :+1:

I don't have strong feelings about the company name anymore. But since we have that "I represent a company", we might as well include it :+1:

@klappradla I'm sorry I did not express myself very well. The column I said is not the model column, but the column of the table displayed in the view. I will start working on this issue :dancer:

[juuh42dias]

@carpodaster @klappradla Interested in text_field should be, some like this?

[klappradla]

Hm, reading @carpodaster's comment above ☝️ I think it should look like this:

• we keep the interested_in string field with predefined values for better searchability (coach, etc.)
• we add an additional text for a short bio

I did not yet read up everything in your PR, but I think this should still be the way to go.

[juuh42dias]

@klappradla "with predefined values for better searchability" with autocomplete?

[klappradla]

Hm, I'm not sure if we're talking about the same thing here @branquinhoaa 🤔

In the current user edit form, picking the interests looks like this:

[branquinhoaa]

@klappradla yeah, we will keep this info in the interest_in and add a short text that will explain better about the user interests. We are talking about the same thing... We are working on that and we will submit the PR soon. :+1:

[klappradla]

Ok, all good 💚 Sorry, my brain is kinda slow today, craving sleep and cookies ✌️

[carpodaster]

Thanks for clarifying, @branquinhoaa. I, too, thought it would be replaced

[juuh42dias]

With additional text
