Hi, this is a first-timers-only issue. This means we've worked to make it more legible to folks who either haven't contributed to our codebase before, or even folks who haven't contributed to open source before.

If that's you, we're interested in helping you take the first step and can answer questions and help you out as you do. Note that we're especially interested in contributions from people from groups underrepresented in free and open source software!

We know that the process of creating a pull request is the biggest barrier for new contributors. This issue is for you 💝

If you have contributed before, consider leaving this one for someone new, and looking through our general help wanted issues. Thanks!

🤔 What you will need to know.

Nothing. This issue is meant to welcome you to Open Source :) We are happy to walk you through the process.

📋 Step by Step

• 🙋 Claim this issue: Comment below. If someone else has claimed it, ask if they've opened a pull request already and if they're stuck -- maybe you can help them solve a problem or move it along!

• 📝 Update the file app/views/questions/_comment.html.erb in the plots2 repository (press the little pen Icon) and edit the line as shown below.

See this page for some help in taking your first steps!

Hi! Can I try this one? :)

[stefannibrasil]

Yes, sure, @Toiya thanks for the help! If you have any questions, we are here to help :)

[Toiya]

@stefannibrasil
So I made the changes and apparantly there are some issues. However, they don't seem to be in the file I changed. Is this a mistake on my part or is it an okay fix anyway? Sorry for the newbie question, I'm completely new to this

[stefannibrasil]

Hi, @Toiya That's okay, we are all here to learn :)

Do you mean the codeclimate issues? Yeah, I don't think they are related to your changes at all.

I believe you don't have to worry about it for now, because we are still changing the files to reflect the style code that codeclimate checks, am I right, @publiclab/reviewers @jywarren ? (If not, I can help you with that, for sure).

[jywarren]

Thanks, Ill take a look!

[ibrahimabdelkhaleq]

IS this issue still open?

[namangupta01]

Hi @ibrahimelbanna, @Toiya is already working on this issue in pr #2733. You can try other issues. Let us know if you need any help in finding issue.

[ibrahimabdelkhaleq]

@namangupta01 yes I need help finding an issue for a new timer contributor.

[chanjess]

@namangupta01 hi, I'd like to also help out on any more issues you have for a newbie.

[jywarren]

@publiclab/reviewers anyone have a good first timers issue or two to share here?

Thanks everyone for helping out!

[jywarren]

Hi, @chanjess I made a new one here: #2761

I made another here, although it's especially simple so if you want a tougher one i'll work on that too: #2762

[chanjess]

[jywarren]

I think you're free to take it up, but please link back here from your PR as soon as you begin so we don't have 2 people working redundantly. Thanks!
