Description (last modified by zephod) (diff)
From Ira: PDF of bugs and suggestions is attached.
Notes from various conversations:
- [dataset/edit]: Rearrange the delete resources mechanism;
- Use a little minus icon on the far left, followed by a pencil icon for editing.
- The 'delete resource' button can become 'hide'
- Deletions are confirmed with a dialog box
- [dataset/edit]: Rearrange the 'you have unsaved changes' warning;
- Delete the little green plus sign on the right;
- Try a flash banner instead (more general purpose & beautiful)
- [dataset/edit]: Try a pencil icon (+'hide' button) rather than the +/- buttons which look a bit like you're adding a dataset.
- [dataset/view]: Subscribe button (& subscribe to history) doesn't work as expected. Modal dialog carrying instructions?
- [dataset/view]: Drop the 'add to a group>>' and 'add tag>>'. Needs inline tag-adder.
- [dataset/edit]: Make 'tags' a top level form section; it is too important to go below the fold.
- [markdown editor]: Tab colours confuse the user. Inactive button appears to be greyed out.
- [general]: Empty tables have a '(none)' placeholder which is causing issues. Move it into a separate div - it doesn't need be a wide <td> object.
- [dataset/edit]: Long URLs break the edit resources tab. Truncate them.
- [dataset/edit]: The upload file UI mutates and breaks across lines; make it a little more rigid. Verify at different zoom levels.
- [groups]: Clicking a column heading should sort by that column. Default should be 'size', not 'name'.
- [groups]: (Investigate) Is it easy to implement a little search-groups feature?
- [groups]: Entire section to use pretty buttons please.
- [dataset/edit, groups/add, groups/edit]: 'Extras' - what is that for? No clear use; either add examples or hide it from the 'add' form.
- [dataset/create and groups/create]: Slug generator can be tidied. Default: Not editable. @see http://groupspaces.com/a/group/
- [groups/view]: Show description and owner.
- [groups/authz]: Tidy to match admin/authz (pretty buttons & spacing). Add navigation bar.
- [*/authz]: Add tooltips to explain column headers. (Not required if mechanism is about to be refactored...)
- [general]: 'Authorization' refactor to 'Permissions' on nav-bars.
- [search]: (Investigate) Can we quickly & easily reintegrate the faceted search-by-license but present it in the sidebar like the other facets?
- [search]: Facets to go on the left, rather than the right. More logical flow.
- [about]: Get the about page working on test.ckan.net. (Works locally and on live).
