Elections Plugin

sau226 · January 22, 2019, 10:24am

I wish I could use this plugin but based off what everyone else is saying and my test install recently I’m unable to do so. +1 to those talking about the plugin needing a refactor

Please don’t tag people directly.

Returning after having been hired to fix an old broken install I made that has used this plugin a lot, I’m sad to see it looks like it doesn’t work anymore. It’s okay, it was a labor of love and I am greatful for all the work!

Hey @modius @garrick @sau226 and @usulrasolas, sorry for the neglect here!

I just re-added the elections plugin to my sandbox and it seems to be working fine? If someone could describe the issue they’re having in a bit more detail?

usulrasolas · February 19, 2019, 11:46pm

I’ll test it on a clean install and see if I see it. Just appeared like there was a problem but I have no clue on the existing install as they haven’t kept up with it in over a year now.

Not urgent as I don’t use the Elections plugin - but there appears to be an error. I wonder if this is the same error reported by @usulrasolas’s users?

Issue

Server error 500 when editing any post - even though the posts in question are nothing to do with elections AND the Elections plugin is actually disabled.

I’m using the latest tests-passed version of Discourse (v2.3.0.beta2 +157) and the latest version of the Elections plugin.

I’ve confirmed that removing the elections plugin now allows users to edit their posts.

It looks like a) the plugin should check if it is enabled in the poll_edits.rb code - or maybe in plugin.rb and b) there might be an issue caused by the poll refactoring in 2.2 where polls were moved from post_custom_field to their own tables? That said I’d assumed that code that worked with the old tables would still work for historic polls?

Background

I mention the following in case it is important, but may be unrelated.

I installed the Elections Plugin a while ago but after some initial testing I didn’t use it - planned to in the future but just disabled it.

Over the last month or so topics on our forum would ‘die’ whereby the footer of the topic would disappear and scrolling to the bottom would simply show the last post in the topic.

Any updates to that topic would no longer show ‘live’ and the console showed that the message bus had failed but no clue as to what had caused the failure.

To track down where that bug came from I’ve been in the process of disabling and enabling lots of plugins on our live community.

I’d identified that I could get the forum running as expected by removing from app.yml (not just disabling) the discourse-ratings and discourse-elections plugins.

I still wanted to find out exactly where the issue was so I re-added those two plugins to the app.yml but left them disabled.

I was hoping to see my original ‘dying topic’ bug reappear but instead, at this point I have only seen this 500 error when editing posts.

I don’t know why this error has suddenly appeared now as before we could edit posts with ostensibly the same configuration.

sau226 · February 20, 2019, 11:09am

The error is still present. I recently made the decision to wipe my sandbox and rebuild it. When I tried to set an introduction it errored out because of this plugin. The error log from production.log is below.

Could you please consider refactoring the plugin so this doesn’t break any more?

usulrasolas · February 20, 2019, 3:42pm

I can confirm that I am experiencing the error outlined in @bletch post as well. I can provide log if this helps research it. But uninstalling it seems to fix the issue. Confirmed on a clean install, effecting non-poll posts being unable to update.

angus · February 22, 2019, 12:03am

@usulrasolas @bletch @sau226 Cool, could you see if this fixes it?

https://github.com/angusmcleod/discourse-elections/commit/209884b3859af11c662fb3d1305f89cbed9d42c8

Post editing is working on my sandbox.

usulrasolas · February 22, 2019, 2:24am

@angus I can update non election/poll posts! thanks for the fix!

Chaboi_3000 · March 2, 2019, 1:36am

I see some overlap issues with the voting plugins and election combined as seen here:

usulrasolas · August 21, 2019, 9:28am

Currently pulling an error, looks like you’re updating things bit by bit here. Just info and heads up, looks related to various changes that have broken a few plugins and a site. Thanks for all your work!

Thank @usulrasolas. This plugin hasn’t been updated in a while, but there seems to have been a change to how Discourse loads stylesheets, which led to this error. It should work now.

Hi, I tried installing this plugin on Discourse 2.4.0beta4 and I can’t see the New Election button anywhere. Am I missing something very obvious here or does the plugin have problems with the latest Discourse version?

Many thanks in advance.

Haven’t tried it but will, but just wondering if its still supported?

Also having a brief look instead of users would it possible to add topics instead.
I will have to look at the voting plugin which seems to have much but not really what I would call a complete election format.

I say topics as candidates could be added with election spiel and easily linked as a candidate might not be a user or the election might not be people.
Also is it possible to have a nomination count and a preference order?

You seem to have created plugins for exactly the kind of features I’m looking for @angus - thank you so much!

nathank · May 27, 2021, 5:48pm

Hey @angus - are you still maintaining this plugin? It looks great for what we need but I can’t see it in on thepavillion.io at all.

angus · May 28, 2021, 5:19am

I haven’t touched this plugin in a few years. I took a close look at it today and have done a bit of work on it, but ultimately decided it’ll require a more comprehensive project to get working again. Many things have changed in Discourse since I last touched it. I don’t have time for that at the moment, at least as an open source project, so it’ll need to go on the backburner for now. I’ve moved it to #plugin:broken-plugin.

Hey,

I love the idea of an election. Nice work! However, I am getting a few console errors:

I am wondering if anyone else is as well.

angus · September 12, 2022, 6:26am

Hey Bryan, this plugin is not supported. See above
