How do I set up PostGIS?
The docs say it used to be available but now I should ask on Discord?

just deploy a postgis template, you can search and deploy for it from the
+ New button inside of a projectthanks! I wonder why the docs dont just say that
there are multiple locations in the docs that talk about deploying templates, what could be added?
https://docs.railway.app/databases/postgresql#timescale-and-postgis
this is what I found and it would have been easier if it just said what you said
that's fair, I will make this happen
awesome 🙂
the docs page is getting a gigantic overhaul, anything else you have in mind?
on this page specifically?
any page, railway loves feedback
ah just remembered one
https://docs.railway.app/deploy/exposing-your-app#railway-provided-domain
it didn't happen for me as described there
and it doesnt say how to do it manually
it was pretty hard to find as the word 'domain' is not used any more
its now Settings > Networking > Public networking
yeah I can see this needs some extra clarification, thank you!
this is backed up by the fact that I have had to tell a good amount of people how to add a railway domain to their app
I'm sure it used to be easier - I dont recall getting stuck last time
an accessibility one - it would be good to have the gifs be controllable - pause - it's part of the WCAG standard
railway has been evolving quite fast recently, so even the little UI changes they've done can be disruptive when the docs images don't match the site
anda a cheeky UI one - I find the accordions confusing, the arrow approach is normally 'what will happen if you press it' but Railways are inverse of that. So down arrow when closed
no, when open!
I've also seen someone ask for this too, this is awesome feedback
(as in railway ui, not docs)
where specifically in the railway UI can you see this?
no worries, thanks for taking it on. If I think of any more I'll let you know
oh wow they are inverted, that's funny
looking at it, another thing is General is taking up lots of space even though its closed
will let the team know about that too
boom
thank you very much for all the feedback, if you have anything else feel free to drop it
another accessibility one in the UI - sometimes keyboard focus is clear and sometimes its not. I think sometimes its because its focusing something that is visually hidden (so shouldnt be receiving focus)
if I tab from here, I get 5 tab stops before it goes to Networking
great catch
the contents are hidden with
which doesnt actually hide them (display none)
so easy fix then haha
would you mind putting this in #🤗｜feedback
this in #🤗｜feedback too
like that?
perfect, thank you
but the docs feedback i brought straight to the person who is working on the overhaul
cheers!
cheers to you too!
