[GrandComicsDatabase/gcd-django] UnicodeDecodeError when opening vote with non-ASCII title (#426)

[Alexandros Diamantidis]

When trying to open for voting a vote whose title contains a non-ASCII character, the following errors occur:

UnicodeDecodeError at /admin/voting/topic/add/
... and also:
UnicodeDecodeError at /admin/voting/topic/358/change/
'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 76: ordinal not in range(128)
[...]
File "/var/deployment/gcd-django/apps/voting/models.py" in topic_post_save
384. topic.deadline.strftime('%d %B %Y %H:%M:%S ') + settings.TIME_ZONE)

(but the error probably isn't directly related to this line)

Hi all,

 

Would like to ask if its not possible to create a way to add the group or groups relation in the character creation/edit page.

As you know the actual process can be slow.

 

• Create character.
• Wait sometimes a few hours for approval.
• If group does not exist, create group.
• Wait a few hours for approval.
• Create the group relation.
• Wait again a few hours for approval.

 

Maybe some of these tasks/records could be in some kind of pre-approved state, so one could go on with the index without to have to wait hours for the final approval stamp of the editors.

 

Just a thought,

 

Best Regards, João

Like many things we would like to have it is theoretically possible, but
not practically. It would involve a major overhaul on how we do the
change editing.

The only thing that might be possible with the current setup is to add
group relations to existing characters when adding a group (maybe even
add new characters when adding a group). As in, we likely wouldn't need
a major overhaul, just a small overhaul...
But then, the need for adding groups and characters will get less over
time, so not sure if it has higher priority then other needed changes.
