Participatory texts
This feature allows you to navigate the proposals as text. It’s useful for discussing normatives, plans, or other kinds of texts.
Every paragraph is split into a proposal, so it’s possible to discuss it in a more granular way.
Some examples of where this feature was used are:
To configure the "Participatory texts" in proposals component:
-
Sign in as admin
-
Go to admin panel
-
In the main sidebar, click in the button for the space that you want to configure the component for. For instance, it could be "Processes", "Assemblies", or "Conferences"
-
Go to components
-
Click on "Add component" button
-
Click on "Proposals"
-
Check the "Participatory texts enabled" setting
-
Save the component
-
Click in the "Participatory texts" button in the empty proposals component
-
Click in the "Import document" button in the empty Preview participatory text panel
-
Fill the Add document form
-
Preview the document and make corrections
-
Click on publish the document
-
Publish the proposal component
Notice that this feature could break existing proposals, so if there is any proposal it will not work. You’ll see the following message in the components settings:
Cannot interact with this setting if there are existing proposals. Please, create a new Proposals component if you want
to enable this feature or discard all imported proposals in the Participatory Texts menu if you want to disable it.
Add document form
Although it’s possible to work with both Markdown (.MD) and ODT (.ODT) files, we recommend working with Markdown as it’s easier to see the formatting.
