Country was free text, so one country could be entered as Germany / DE /
Deutschland / germany and split the directory filter four ways. Both the
application and the admin form now submit from a native <select> of the
249 ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes: the option shows the English name, the value
is the code. No free-text fallback and no "other" escape hatch. Required,
with an empty "— choose —" first option. The directory filter shows the
English name for the stored code, so one country is one option.
Non-trivial, non-UI: the submitted value format lives in one constant per
page, COUNTRY_VALUE_FORMAT ("code" | "name") — switching to full country
names is a one-line change if the n8n workflow expects names, not codes.
The webhook field name stays exactly "Country".
- F2: 'We publish exactly what you write' -> 'We publish what you write —
after we check it: your photo, your email address and for spam' (the page's
own consent line + photo check + spam gate made the absolute false)
- claims sweep: drop the 'no claim we cannot back' meta-claim and the
'not through an agency' absolute; state the individual rule as the
declaration we ask for, and make the card's individual tag read
'(as declared)' to match the OCA tag
- F3: directory lede now says the individual rule is a declaration, not a fact
- F4: 'How this works' 110 -> 44 words (three short lines, no relay promise)
- F5: count framed as 'a number we recorded' (owner-typed, not derived);
photo hint agrees with its '(optional)' label; kicker 'ODOO COMMUNITY
FREELANCERS' -> 'ODOO FREELANCERS' and the meta/og drop 'Odoo Community'
so an Enterprise client is not invited to self-exclude
- F1: the request and invite forms SHIP DARK — their endpoint constants are
empty and the forms stay hidden behind a plain 'not open yet' line
(no submit, so no false confirmation); the invite copy carries the
one-click opt-out line the ICP asked for before the form returns
- languages/specialities now POST as comma-separated STRINGS ("English,German"),
not arrays; the build script splits them into separate filter options and tags.
- the client request form is no longer inert: it posts to odoo_experts_quote with
an explicit freelancer pick-list (never an implicit all) and a client address.
- new invite-a-friend form posts to odoo_experts_invite_friend (sender name +
friend email); we send the invitation, not the sender's address.
- both new forms show success only on a returned 200 (n8n answers 200 before the
workflow runs) and promise no timing.
- build-directory.py: render the pick-list, fix the country option casing.
- pages stay drafts (noindex, not in sitemap/llms, no inbound links).
The live record carries placeholder junk in Linkedin/upwork/Image ('1',
'ieivmermi', 'gineoirn'). With type=url the whole form went invalid and the owner
could not save anything. type=text inputmode=url keeps the URL intent and the
mobile keyboard without hard-blocking on data the owner is trying to correct.
- hide the inert client request form; announce it as coming soon with an email
fallback (no reachable error state, no submit that refuses a completed brief)
- soften the contact claim to 'where a freelancer published their details' and
make a card with no contact say so instead of showing an empty space
- move the admin add/edit panel off the public page to its own draft page
(/odoo-community-developers/admin/), unlinked, reachable only by URL
- admin edit: load-and-confirm the record before writing, and read-modify-write
the booleans so an untouched OCA_member/is_individual keeps its current value
- application form: add Country + Odoo versions (the filters' inputs), GitHub and
OCA profile URLs, and an explicit email-publication consent line
- tighten 'How this works' from ~120 words to two short options + one caveat
- build-directory.py: skip records with no Name; render GitHub/OCA links and the
no-contact line; read Country via alias
