Information about what kind of work GrantsBot does in the portal, including a description of currently scoped features and a development timeline, as well as a wishlist for features that should be developed in the future.

Activity feed

[edit]

GrantsBot will update the activity feed on a daily basis, providing alerts about certain kinds of events. Currently, four types of event notifications are under development.

  • Someone created a new pattern
  • Someone endorsed a pattern

These are the little windows that have a rotating set of profiles in them (profiles of people, pages, etc.). There are two on the main portal page and one for recent questions on the Parlor.

Profile guides

[edit]

A Guide is the term for those groovy lists that have neat things like titles, summaries, timestamps, and which are ordered by recency. There are several of them on the Library page.

Under development

[edit]

The kinds of guides that GrantsBot can automatically keep up to date, based on our current set up.

  • Patterns
  • Participant profiles

Wishlist

[edit]

Currently, the guides for Case studies, Learning modules, and Other resources, will have to be updated manually, meaning that someone will have to dump info into a template and paste it onto the relevant page. In future, we can hopefully update these automatically.
