disappearing apps on demo?

Hi,

how are apps managed on the demo(s)? I've been using the league table app on the stable demo for experimentation for some time, but now it is suddenly gone. I see there are many more apps on the snapshot demo, but not including the league table app

I’m not really sure how they are “managed” but someone might simply just have uninstalled it?

The admin/district user has right to install/uninstall apps. So it’s not a very stable place to store stuff :wink:

Regards,

Mark

Is this very smart? Just logged in with admin/district now, and I can only see 6 apps (dashboard, gis, pivot, visualizer, mobile light and mobile smartphone). Almost everything has been removed since yesterday. Isn't this were we showcase DHIS2 to potential users?

I do agree that we probably should separate sandbox from showcase. I suppose the trainingland demo can be more of a showcase?

Hey Johan,

You are right, this is where we showcase the product. The admin user however has sufficient rights to delete and install apps. (which is probably also something we want to showcase?)

The current situation is something different however, someone has changed the user rights (roles) of the admin user probably using the “system” account. (You can not delete the core functionality, just custom apps)

I don’t know exactly when the demo is being “reset” if it is every night (in addition to every CI build of stable).

It’s a bit of a double edged sword as we give people the more advanced rights to check out the system, they can mess it up, but to show those more advanced features we need to provide those rights.
