Avoiding Errors

The contributors to this repository welcome any and all suggestions and/or constructive criticism regarding the website Spons.Central. Any anomalies encountered may be conveyed via the contact details provided on the aforementioned website.

In the current version of the project, the following may be considered to ensure a smooth experience:

  • Multiple accounts cannot presently be registered using the same email address.

  • The CSS for the website loads in the intended manner when viewed on Google Chrome. Minor anomalies in the styling may be observed on other browsers.

  • Despite the said precautions, if an error occurs after submitting the second page of the registration form, the email address and phone numbers specified in the present registration cannot be used for registering again in the same database.

  • The profile pictures of the users cannot sometimes be viewed.

  • The backend uses geopy (a Python library) to convert address of the user to a latitude, longitude pair. The limitations of geopy regarding conversions of extremely specific addresses cannot be stated to be applicable all cases; hence it is recommended that a well-known address be entered with the precision going upto ‘cityName, stateName, countryName’ to ensure an error-free experience.

  • An appropriate HTML page is displayed when there is an attempt to access the Chat page without having sent any invites, or when the sent invites aren’t accepted. The page so displayed helps navigate the user back to searching.
