StaffDirectoryView causing no instructors to show on Instructor Page

[afs2015]

Currently on our instructor page https://bostonlindyhop.com/instructors/ no instructors are showing up. I have noticed https://newcolumbiaswing.org/about/instructors/ has the same issue as well.

I believe the issue is in the file danceschool/core/views.py that the line staff = context.get('staffmember_list', StaffMember.objects.none()) in StaffDirectoryView is returning None instead of staffmember_list.

It looks like the issue was actually in StaffMemberListPlugin in core/cms_plugins.py. Apparently the multi-select field for instructor status no longer resolves to a list by default, which was causing the staff member query to always come up empty. I fixed the issue by forcing statusChoices to resolve as a list.

I think I'm hit by this issue as well

same issue in Brave Browser and Safari.

I also get errors like these

[JonBendtsen]

Maybe the issue is that I did not upload any pictures on my instructors, will test that.

[JonBendtsen]

nope, adding pictures did not change anything

[JonBendtsen]

probably file should be here

/usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/danceschool/core/templates/core

where there are no file named instructor_image_set.html, but there is a staff_image_set.html, maybe I can just symlink that?

Contents mention instructor :-D

Nope, didn't work, same error.

inside the "web" container.

[JonBendtsen]

In production-template/docker/web/Dockerfile I added this line
RUN cp -a /usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/danceschool/core/templates/core/staff_image_set.html /usr/local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/danceschool/core/templates/core/instructor_image_set.html

And now I do not get any error message, but I'm not seeing any Instructors either ?

[JonBendtsen]

Text not the most descriptive in the bottom of /admin/core/staffmember/2/change/ under

Instructor information

[Add another Instructor](https://registration.balboaswing.dk/admin/core/staffmember/2/change/#)

I don't want to add another instructor, but if I click Add another instructor, then I get to select Instructor information

even after setting this to Regular Instructor I still can not see any instructors?

@JonBendtsen: Did d0b34dc fix your issue or are you still seeing it?

I stopped using Django-danceschool about a shortly after I posted the above. Instead I've build my own system that we already use for organizing events and classes.

After presenting it in Herrang this summer my plan is to launch a paid service because a service seemed like what most people wanted rather than a DIY, run it yourself.

I am able to launch it already now, but I would like to wait until Januar 1st because if I do it before I'd have to still do taxes from the period now until the end of the year, where as if I start the business January 1st I'd get a whole year before having to do taxes.

Given that I store peoples private information, and I live in the EU, I'd have to abide by the GDPR laws and due to all that hassle and risk I'd would not offer the service for free.

My system can do classes, event, customers, vendors, contacts on these, waiting lists, membership, payments using stripe, paypal or banktransfer. Even cash. It has user capabilities, like in our dance org. there's the boards which has almost all permisions (I have more), then the teachers which has less, and below that there's volunteers, ...

So far I can accept lead or follow role, but solo, ELEF, AMBI or switch should be easy to add. People can register as a lone wolf, with a partner and as a couple. With a partner both has to register. As a couple only one person registers, pays for both and handles all communication. This is often used by married couples.

I do not currently have automatic accept, everyone gets on a waiting list, then from the overview page I can see the registrants, their status, and click through and accept them.

I'm got linking to work when both parties register with partner, each mentioning each other. But if only one does, then it can not yet recognize. So, manual accept, automatic will come. As with many more features.
