Heritage-Walks

This project is an admin portal for the Heritage Walks project here: https://github.com/AllenWorker/HertiageWalks-XamarinForm The application allows for users to use it in place of a tour guide as they follow a given heritage walk.

This portal allows for the administrator of the Heritage Walks system to modify what trails, stops and other data is available from within the application. This portal utilises Laravel (a PHP framework) to provide easy setup and allow for quick deployment on to a PHP supported web server.

A live version of this portal is currently available at https://heritage-walks.screencraft.net.au/ as of 17/11/2019

This portal was developed using both Laravel (a PHP framework) and Laragon (an all in one web/database setup for Windows).

heritage-walks's Issues

Add Trails Form - Longitude/Latitude Input allows for text; causes issue.

The add trails form currently allow for text to be supplied as an input for the longitude and latitude values. This causes the program to crash as both of those fields require a decimal number.

Multiple Images & Image Captions

Need to be able to add multiple images to each stop and trail, as well as captions.

no spacing in form

need spacing in the stops add form

Change Delete Stop/Delete Trail buttons from Green to Red

Multiples images for each trails/stops

NEED ABILITY TO HAVE MORE IMAGES!!!!

Add a word limit to the descriptions (Short and Long)

Add a word limit to both the Short and Long descriptions so that the mobile application doesn't have to display large amounts of text.

Admin Portal

Create a working Laravel admin portal

Too many stops could cause a visibility issue.

Currently, all stops are listed when a trail is selected. This could become an issue if pagination or another solution is not utilized.

A similar issue arises when listing all stops on the Stops page.

When adding stop data gets wiped if a mandatory field is accidentally left unfilled

When adding a stop the user's input data gets wiped if a mandatory field is accidentally left unfilled. This is a major issue as the user is then required to completely retype everything they've just entered which can be frustrating.

Remove Clear Form button from Edit pages

Audio Playback - Scrubbing doesn't actually work

When playing back an audio file from one of the stops or trails view pages, the audio scrubbing (slider bar) doesn't actually work as intended.

Design Database Table Structure

The plan is to design the database structure for the project based on the other necessary features.

Stops Table

The stops table appears to be unable to fit on screen properly if the description of the stop is too long. I assume that the same issue will be encountered when dealing with trails with long descriptions as well. The text will need to wrap down.

Audio Upload

The administrator is required to be able to upload an audio file for each stop. This file will be an audio recording of the text information included with each stop.

Trail Description

Add description to the individual trails.

Update the stops list so that it shows the individual stop images

Update the stops list so that the individual stop images are displayed next to their appropriate stop in the list.

Search Function for Trails and Stops

Have basic search for the trails and stops index pages.
Then have a search function to search through stops to add to trails. (drop-down function)

"Remember Me" checkbox on login page doesn't actually do anything

Currently the "Remember Me" checkbox on the login page doesn't function as intended. It is supposed to be used to allow the user to choose whether their web browser will remember their username/password combo and automatically log them back in the next time they visit the page.

Currently the browser will always "remember" their username/password combo which is an issue, as they have to manually log out after every use.

Menu Font (Mobile)

The menu button when on mobile is difficult to see and needs to be made clearer.

Needs some time of error message for adding an audio larger then 2mb

Newly added audio for existing trails can't be deleted from the server

When an existing trail is modified to add an updated audio file (.mp3 extension), the old audio file is deleted, and the new once is added. This however, somehow causes a problem whereby the new audio file isn't removed when/if the whole trail is deleted. I am currently unsure as to what is causing this issue.

Checked boxes issue

can't auto select the boxes

Table Issue on Stops page

The table containing the list of stops on the stops page doesn't conform to the full width of the given container.

Reset Password/Email System

Need to get the reset password system functioning otherwise the administrator might be unable to access it at a point. The system also needs to be able to change the email address associated with the user in the database.

Text boxes don't fit to description

API Authentication

I've realised that the API will require authentication support before it can be utilised for the mobile application, as it is currently insecure.
