@Lezek123 could you advise here pls on how the limitations are set up rn on the concurrent number of active proposals? (Suspect the limit covers both gracing and open)

[Lezek123]

@dmtrjsg The limit is 20 active proposals: https://github.com/Joystream/joystream/blob/master/runtime/src/lib.rs#L1571. Active refers to proposals that haven't reached their final status yet. The number of active proposals can be either retrieved from the query node:

query {
  proposalsConnection(where: { isFinalized_eq: false }) {
    totalCount
  }
}

Or from chain via api.query.proposalsEngine.activeProposalCount

over to you sir @ninja-fire

for now, I would suggest an easy way to find a solution to this issue like is the image above:

• disable the button "create new proposal"
• add an error message explaining the restrictions

Had the idea for a tooltip instead: #3916. WDYT?

I really like your proposition, it makes sense. The user that wants to add a proposal will be aware of the limit, otherwise, he doesn't care so he doesn't need to go. nice!

Looks like this issue is solved and ready for review.
