- jordanmessina 14y agoThe site isn't letting me sign up. When I click "Sign Me Up" I just get back to the sign up page with no form errors displayed.
- brutasse 14y agoI don't see anything 500'ing on our side. If you could fire up a debugger and see what's being sent to the server and the response you get back, that'd be great. The issues are here: https://github.com/brutasse/djangopeople/issues https://github.com/brutasse/djangopeople/issues
- ashray 14y agoHaha only on hacker news. Would love to do this to end users :D
- Cherian 14y agoDitto here. I gave up in 3 tries.
- Nagyman 14y agoI had the same issue, but I hadn't zoomed in to the location on the map (I only typed it). Further, when I revisited the page, there were insecure assets that didn't load by default.
- arrowgunz 14y agoYep. Same here. No error is being displayed. I am just being taken back to the same page over and over again.
- randomdrake 14y agoCan anyone provide some insight as to why Django is so popular in Europe? I'm willing to accept that this site just isn't a good representation of the interest in the world, but it seems heavily favored there.
- brutasse 14y agoThe homepage actually only show the most recent signups. Since we announced the site at Djangocon Europe we got lots of signups from there. The homepage will need some improvement, I'll look at changing that to some sort of density map.
- randomdrake 14y agoFair enough. A choropleth map would be cool. Another question, if I may: how come it's not obvious how to update your profile photo? Maybe I missed something, but I looked in earnest to find the option and could not.
- brutasse 14y agoThe old Djangopeople hosted avatars but I've switched to gravatar. So just updating the gravatar associated to your account's email address should do it. I'll make that clearer on the site.
- bcostlow 14y agoThere is something odd going on with the default map. If I search for my name, it shows the map with a pin at my location, near Columbus, OH, USA. If I just start from the home page, no matter how much I zoom in, I don't show up. So whether or not the site users are a good representation of the interest in the world, the default map seems a poor representation of their users. Edit: Brutasse posted on the thread explaining this right as I posted.
- tommypalm 14y agoEurope is awake already and has had a chance to register?
- blahpro 14y agoIt left?
- bennylope 14y agoIt was down for the past few months (at least).
- kennethlove 14y agoI'd say at least a year. The outage what prompted my partner and I to build djangopeople.me.
- jaddison 14y agoI'm on the site, but I can't log in or retrieve my password using my standard username. It would be nice to have a reset password by email instead of just username.
- brutasse 14y agoAre you https://people.djangoproject.com/jamesaddison/ https://people.djangoproject.com/jamesaddison/? Get in touch via email and I'll tell you which email address is associated to your account. My contact info is on https://bruno.renie.fr/ https://bruno.renie.fr/.

- whalesalad 14y agoThis website has always been a tremendous pain in the ass to use. I just want to update my location =(
- brutasse 14y agoThere is an open issue where updating location doesn't seem to be working for some people. I'll look into it, if you have any usability suggestion please get in touch: https://github.com/brutasse/djangopeople/issues https://github.com/brutasse/djangopeople/issues — thanks!
- rburhum 14y agoSomebody needs to tell them about Google Fusion Tables, Heatmaps and server-side point clustering and rendering. Dropping a whole bunch of pins from a random sample like that is horrible visualization. It assumes I am going to zoom in to every single place to figure out if indeed there is a pin around there.
- brutasse 14y agoYes, this is on the list of things to do.
- zalew 14y agothere are some obsolete profiles to fill in, like pownce or magnolia. it certainly needs a freshening up. why you released it so soon before revamping it a bit? http://djangopeople.me/ http://djangopeople.me/ filled the absence quite decently (except obligatory twitter).
- ivix 14y agoThe huge map on the front page fails to deliver on the promise "Discover users of the Django Web framework near you" - I can't, because the map only shows a fraction of the pins. As someone has said before, load the data into google fusion tables and it's quite easy to show hundreds and thousands of points.
- tweiss 14y agoguys, please fix your registration process. Way too much stuff that you ask for in one view and errors don't get properly displayed. I gave up after 3 tries... But I like the idea, it's hard to find other django hackers in Berlin. Everybody's doing Rails or still PHP.
- canadiancreed 14y agothe map points seems really off. For Canada for example there's folks that are based in Edmonton, but are treading water in the middle of Hudson Bay. Also is there a reason why the map is so zoomed out when you click on countries?
