Welcome to the marketing site of Monica.

It also contains

marketing_site's Issues

Gramatical error

Under the section about disclosing to law enforcement it reads

In certain situations, we may be required to disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to met national security or law enforcements requirements. We just hope that this never happens.

Line 2 should replace met with meet... Unless is some form of silent way of saying that you've had to comply, then let me know and I can make this issue go away.

Add a 'Log in' button to monicahq.com

The problem
I'm always frustrated when I go to monicahq.com and there is no 'log in' button. I have to click 'Sign up' and then the 'log in' link appears, which isn't very intuitive.

Describe the solution you'd like
An obvious button on the home page that takes me straight to log in.

Describe alternatives you've considered (optional)
Change the top right button text from 'Sign Up' to 'Log In / Sign up'

Additional context
See screenshot of current home page (note lack of 'Log In' button)

Documentation missing for /api/contacts/:id/avatar

I found monicahq/monica#3302 and then the avatar test files, and so I managed to figure out that the API looks like:

PUT /api/contacts/:id/avatar
{
source: "photo",
photo_id: 1
}

Maybe there are also other changes from monicahq/monica#3302 which need added to the docs? I'd be open to looking into submitting a PR. Just let me know if that would be appreciated.

Quick link to the docs

I just ran into the docs by searching the web.
I recommend putting a link to it on monicahq.com at the header or footer.

Suggestion: show mobile screenshots

Hi there,

I recently heard about Monica and wanted to check it out. I imagine most of the time I use it would be on my phone, after a chat with a friend or contact. I'm curious what the mobile experience is like, so some screenshots of that at https://www.monicahq.com/features would be helpful to sell people like me on the product.

Regardless, love what you guys are doing!

Thanks,
Alex

The roadmap link on monicahq.com is not publicly accessible

It's minor, but there's a link to the roadmap on monicahq.com's footer. It links to https://github.com/monicahq/monica/projects/1 which returns a 404 to the public- I'm guessing it's accessible by project members.

(I wanted to learn more and look at the roadmap for future features, and came across this. )

Thanks!

Malformed Rendering in Addresses API Documentation

The following particular line is not rendered properly:
https://github.com/monicahq/marketing_site/blame/0d98f15ba920a8ca358d10f58808a876403371f6/api_documentation/addresses.md#L223

You can see it here:

marketing_site/api_documentation/addresses.md

Line 223 in 0d98f15

| country_id | integer | The country ID of the country the contact lives in. Country IDs are retrieved through the <a href="{{ "/api/countries" | prepend: site.baseurl | prepend: site.url }}">Country's API</a>. |

Broken RSS link

On https://www.monicahq.com/ an RSS feed is advertised which points to a 404 page. The Atom feed works just fine.

Thanks!

API documentation for countries

The documentation at https://www.monicahq.com/api/countries claims that counties are in an array

{
  "data": [
    {
      "id": 63,
      "object": "country",
      "name": "Afghanistan",
      "iso": "af"
      ...

However, that not the on my Monica instance, it returns them in a object:

{"data":{"AFG":{"id":"AF","object":"country","name":"Afghanistan","iso":"AF"},"WSB":{"id":"WSB","object":"country","name":"Akrotiri","iso":"WSB"},...

By the way, a link to "Country's API" from https://www.monicahq.com/api/addresses goes to https://www.monicahq.com/api/countries.md, which is dead. Correct url is probably https://www.monicahq.com/api/countries

Link to self-hosting guide is broken on https://www.monicahq.com/

Steps to reproduce:

1. Browse to monicahq.com
2. Try clicking the link embedded in the call-to-action text "No credit card required. Or install it on your own server."
3. End up with a 404 link on Github

Expected behavior:
Link should point to https://github.com/monicahq/monica/blob/4.x/docs/installation/readme.md instead.

Monica API Doc has Invalid JSON example for Contact Creation

https://www.monicahq.com/api/contacts#create-a-contact

Current published example:

{
  "first_name": "henri",
  "last_name": "troyat",
  "nickname": "Rambo",
  "gender_id": 1,
  "birthdate_day": null,
  "birthdate_month": null,
  "birthdate_year": null,
  "is_birthdate_known": false,
  "birthdate_is_age_based": true,
  "is_birthdate_known": false,
  "birthdate_age": 29,
  "is_partial": false,
  "is_deceased": true,
  "deceased_date_day": 2,
  "deceased_date_month": 2,
  "deceased_date_year": 2017,
  "deceased_date_is_age_based": false,
  "is_deceased_date_known": true,
}

Problems:

• Last entry is_deceased_date_known has a trailing comma that needs to be removed.
• The entry is_birthdate_known is listed twice, one needs to be removed.

Suggested example:

{
	"first_name": "henri",
	"last_name": "troyat",
	"nickname": "Rambo",
	"gender_id": 1,
	"birthdate_day": null,
	"birthdate_month": null,
	"birthdate_year": null,
	"is_birthdate_known": false,
	"birthdate_is_age_based": true,
	"birthdate_age": 29,
	"is_partial": false,
	"is_deceased": true,
	"deceased_date_day": 2,
	"deceased_date_month": 2,
	"deceased_date_year": 2017,
	"deceased_date_is_age_based": false
}
