Bug: possibly missing migration in latest build about chandler

[Laptop765]

Might be a separate issue but there are two prefix fields in edit contact.

Well, our bad.
It's not a missing migration. As we are still building everything, we have changed some old migrations so we don't manage the database schema too much with new migrations. That means you'll have to recreate the database 😥

Ahh that's unfortunate but I suppose not entirely unexpected 😄 So it sounds like there isn't a way for alpha testers to keep up with schema changes right now? If that's the case I might hold off testing until it becomes a thing. Unless there's a way to export/import? I wouldn't mind doing that.

I created prefix and suffix columns (varchar 255 null) to the contacts table and that seems to have unblocked me for the time being so I might keep poking around.

@Laptop765 yes adding them manually will fix the problem.

There is another breaking change that is coming thanks to #354 that we absolutely need before moving forward. If you didn't use the upload feature, there should not be any impact. If you did use file uploads, it will break.

After this, we'll stop changing schema and do regular migrations.

@djaiss Thanks for the heads up! Does that mean after #354 it is safe to trust data stored in the database can be used going forward?

[djaiss]

@Laptop765 after #353 actually since it also changes a lot of things.
The other PRs are irrelevant and should not be impacted by this.
