Internet Explorer 8 was released in 2009 and people using it already
know that most web pages look broken on it, so we don't need to warn
them.
Removing it makes our application layout file much easier to read and
modify.
Note that in the budgets wizard test we now create district with no
associated geozone, so the text "all city" will appear in the districts
table too, meaning we can't use `within "section", text: "All city" do`
anymore since it would result in an ambiguous match.

We had two different keys with the same text and were passing it as a
parameter. Since the text is the same in any case, we don't need a
parameter for it.
Note we are using the `proposals` i18n key instead of creating a new one
in a `shared` namespace one because creating a new key would mean that
we'd lose the already existing translations in Crowdin.
In the images.yml file we have a duplicate key with the same translation,
so we can remove it.
In the admin.yml file we have a duplicate key with different translation.
This translation is only used in 2 places in the application:
- In the administration table for collaborative legislation proposal index.
- In the <% provide :title do %> of the same page.
Although it is true that now the second translation (Title) is applied in
both cases, I think it makes more sense to use the first one (Proposals)
in the page title because it seems to make more sense and be more useful
to use "Proposals" instead of “Title”.
In order not to modify the behavior in the translation shown in the
administration table, we add human_attribute_name to obtain the expected
result.
Note we could use `acts_as_paranoid` with the `without_default_scope`
option, but we aren't doing so because it isn't possible to consider
deleted records in uniqueness validations with the paranoia gem [1].
I've added tests for these cases so we don't accidentally add
`acts_as_paranoid` in the future.
Also note we're extracting a `RowComponent` because, when
enabling/disabling a tenant, we're also enabling/disabling the link
pointing to its URL, and so we need to update the URL column after the
AJAX call.

Some institutions using CONSUL have expressed interest in this feature
since some of their tenants might already have their own domains.
We've considered many options for the user interface to select whether
we're using a subdomain or a domain, like having two separate fields,
using a check box, ... In the end we've chosen radio buttons because
they make it easier to follow a logical sequence: first you decide
whether you're introducing a domain or subdomain, and then you enter it.
We've also considered hiding this option and assuming "if it's got a
dot, it's a domain". However, this wouldn't work with nested subdomains
and it wouldn't work with domains which are simply machine names.
Note that a group of radio buttons (or check boxes) is difficult to
style when the text of the label might expand over more than one line
(as is the case here on small screens); in this case, most solutions
result in the second line of the label appearing immediately under the
radio button, instead of being aligned with the first line of the label.
That's why I've added a container for the input+label combination.
We were displaying an icon showing that certain actions can't be
performed. However, people who can't see the icons were hearing that
they _can_ perform certain actions while the opposite is true.
We've considered other options to solve this problem. One was to split
the list in two: actions that can be performed and actions that can't be
performed. It was tricky because in some cases we're listing that
actions that can be performed now and in other cases we're displaying
the actions that people will be able to perform once they verify their
account.
Another option was to include the word "Cannot" as a prefix instead of
"Additional verification needed". We haven't done so because, while in
English we say "cannot do this thing", in other languages they say
"this thing cannot do".
So we've gone with a solution where people hearing what's on the screen
know what's going on and we don't have to make big changes in the code.
Note we aren't allowing to delete a tenant because it would delete all
its data, so this action is a very dangerous one. We might need to add a
warning when creating a tenant, indicating the tenant cannot be
destroyed. We can also add an action to delete a tenant which forces the
admin to write the name of the tenant before deleting it and with a big
warning about the danger of this operation.
For now, we're letting administrators of the "main" (default) tenant to
create other tenants. However, we're only allowing to manage tenants
when the multitenancy configuration option is enabled. This way the
interface won't get in the way on single-tenant applications.
We've thought about creating a new role to manage tenants or a new URL
out of the admin area. We aren't doing so for simplicity purposes and
because we want to keep CONSUL working the same way it has for
single-tenant installations, but we might change it in the future.
There's also the fact that by default we create one user with a known
password, and if by default we create a new role and a new user to
handle tenants, the chances of people forgetting to change the password
of one of these users increases dramatically, particularly if they
aren't using multitenancy.
The `reload` method added to max_votes validation is needed because the
author gets here with some changes because of the around_action
`switch_locale`, which adds some changes to the current user record and
therefore, the lock method raises an exception when trying to lock it
requiring us to save or discard those record changes.
In the dev seeds, we were using `Setting["url"]/proposals`, but we can
use `proposals_url` instead, similar to what we do in the rest of the
application.
We can do a similar thing in the sitemap. This way the sitemap will also
work on installations who haven't manually set the "url" setting.
Since we aren't using `Setting["url"]` anywhere anymore, we're removing
it.
This setting was mainly redundant, since we already had the
`server_name` in the secrets. Furthermore, `server_name` is
automatically configured when running the installer, while
`Setting["url"]` had to be manually set in the admin section the
application was installed.
Note we're using `ActionMailer::Base` setting to generate URLs. Sounds a
bit strange, but it's a standard way Rails provides to generate URLs
outside the context of a request.
This task was "temporarily" removed in commit 7b6619528. Since that was
done three and a half years ago, right after the dashboard was
introduced, I think it's time to make this "temporary" measure a bit
more permanent ;).
Note that the `create` action doesn't create an image but updates an
answer instead. We're removing the references to `:create` in the
abilities since it isn't used.
In the future we might change the form to add an image to an answer
because it's been broken for ages since it shows all the attached
images.
Adding, modifiying, and/or deleting questions for an already started
poll is far away from being democratic and can lead to unwanted side
effects like missing votes in the results or stats.
So, from now on, only modifiying questions will be possible only if
the poll has not started yet.
We need to update a couple of tests because a poll is created in the
tests with a timestamp that includes nanoseconds and in the form to edit
the time of the poll the nanoseconds are not sent, meaning it was
detected as a change.
Until now, in order to edit an answer, we had to click on its title on
the table and then on the "Edit answer" link.
That was tedious and different from what we usually do in the admin
section. Furthermore, the code for the answers table was written twice
and when we modified it we forgot to update the one in the `show`
action, meaning the table here provided less information than the
information present in the answers tables.
