| Summary | 2804: More intuitive "choose what to edit" screens | ||||
| Description | [This builds on 416 (mass-move/mass-delete) and 786 (drag and drop re-ordering).] Redesign the "choose what to edit" screens. Ideally each of these screens would be openable up in 2 modes: 1) Columned table with pagination 2) List with no pagination *OR* Tree-list with no pagination [if tree-based category structure present] CRUD modules already support these 2 alternative modes, but it currently chooses the best. Ideally we'd allow the user to switch between them. Some non-CRUD modules may only provide flat lists right now and would get enhanced too. On the tabular view, when someone clicks the "edit" link of an item, have Javascript load the form for that item under the item listing (in between all the items). And then when a user saves or cancels editing, it will shrink and disappear so the user is back to just the list. Bottom line, avoid full page requests and loads as much as possible. As appropriate re-design mass-move/mass-delete/re-order functionality to be really tidy with a new design conceived to optimise showing all the different management features neatly. We can remove any documentation we have (tips? FAQ?) about saying you need to go into edit to delete content. Now it would be more obvious. | ||||
