AU Trades Sprint Requirements

Okay, let's break down these client requirements step by step to help you resolve them in your React/TypeScript project with Supabase as the backend. I'll provide guidance on how to approach each issue:

1. Pricing and Checkout Issues

• Plan Display Error:

  • Problem: User sees the starter plan displayed instead of the pro plan.

  • Solution:

    • Frontend (React/TypeScript): Verify the user's subscription status from the backend upon login or account page load. Ensure that the correct plan details are displayed based on the user's subscription level.

    • Backend (Supabase): Implement a reliable way to store and retrieve user subscription data. Ensure the data is consistent and accurate.

• Manage Subscription Error:

  • Problem: "Manage Subscription" link is broken.

  • Solution:

    • Identify the root cause: Is the link pointing to the correct URL? Is there a CORS issue?

    • Frontend: Ensure the link navigates to the correct management portal URL provided by your subscription service (e.g., Stripe, Paddle). Handle any potential errors gracefully.

• Plan Highlighting:

  • Problem: Both starter and pro plans are highlighted as "most popular."

  • Solution:

    • Frontend: Implement conditional logic to highlight only the pro plan when the user is signed out. Use local storage or cookies to remember the user's preference.

• Plan Requirements (Job Applications):

  • Problem: Enforcing limits based on the plan (Free: 2, Starter: 10, Pro: Unlimited).

  • Solution:

    • Backend (Supabase): Implement logic to track the number of job applications made by each user within the current billing cycle. Store this data in the Supabase database.

    • Frontend: Before allowing a user to apply for a job, check their plan and the number of applications they've made. Display appropriate messages if they exceed their limit.

2. Account Settings

• Settings Tab:

  • Solution:

    • Frontend: Add a "Settings" tab to the account dropdown.

    • Display the subscribed plan banner within this tab.

    • Implement functionality for users to delete their accounts and modify settings.

3. Notifications System

• Notification Redirection:

  • Problem: Notifications don't redirect to the specific chat message.

  • Solution:

    • Backend: Ensure each notification includes a reference to the specific message ID.

    • Frontend: When a user clicks a notification, use the message ID to redirect them to the correct message within the chat interface.

• Real-time Chat Updates:

  • Solution:

    • Implement WebSockets or use Supabase's real-time capabilities to push new messages to the client in real-time.

    • Use libraries like socket.io or pusher-js.

• Job Application Notifications:

  • Solution:

    • Backend: Trigger a notification when a user's job receives an application.

    • Frontend: Display the notification to the user.

• Duplicate Notifications:

  • Solution:

    • Backend: Investigate the code that triggers the notifications. Ensure notifications are not being triggered multiple times for the same event. Add checks to prevent duplicates.

• Notification Clearing:

  • Solution:

    • Frontend: When a user clears notifications, send a request to the backend to mark them as read in the database.

    • Backend: Update the notification status in the Supabase database.

• Access Granted Notifications:

  • Solution:

    • Backend: When access is granted, create a notification with the relevant file information.

    • Frontend: Display the notification with the correct message.

• Proposal Submission Notifications:

  • Solution:

    • Backend: Create a notification when a proposal is submitted.

    • Frontend: Display the notification.

4. User Signup and Profile

• Email Confirmation Redirect:

  • Problem: Redirects to localhost instead of the live website.

  • Solution:

    • Supabase Settings: Update the email confirmation redirect URL in your Supabase project settings to the live website URL.

• Automatic Name Population:

  • Solution:

    • Frontend: On signup, extract the name from the input field and store it in the user's profile.

    • Backend: Ensure the name is saved in the Supabase user table.

5. Job Posting

• Contact Phone Number:

  • Solution:

    • Frontend: Add an optional phone number field to the job posting form.

    • Backend: Store the phone number in the Supabase database.

• Project Value:

  • Solution:

    • Frontend: Add a "Don't include project value" button.

    • Backend: If the user selects this, don't require the project value.

• Project Files:

  • Solution:

    • Remove the requirement to upload project files.

• N/A Display:

  • Solution:

    • Frontend: Display "N/A" in the project overview if the user doesn't include a phone number or project value.

    • Display "This project has no attached files" if no files are added.

• Unlocking Project Files:

  • Solution:

    • Frontend: Implement a checkbox to allow users to unlock project files.

    • Backend: Ensure all applicants can access the files if the box
