Hi all, I propose to add a column in the document index table to display the document titles. Right now we only display document name and space ; and users do relate to the title they enter in the edit Form, not to the technical name of the page. Only issue is that currently we can't have this column sortable nor filterable since standard XE documents use the localization tool for their title, so searching and ordering would not provide with expected results. I propose we add the column just after the page name one, non filterable/sortable (for the moment and until we find a way to make internationalized titles searchable) and non clickable. You can check the result on the incubator wiki (just the i18n key for the table header is missing) http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/AllDocs Note that this will force us to add a nice title to all documents in XE (this is not the case right now, some technical documents in "blacklisted" spaces still have no title) JIRA issue : http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XE-603

If it's long but with spaces, that's OK, it will just create a fat row. If it's long without spaces (which shouldn't happen, since it's a title; this should happen more often for the document name, but there's a 250 chars limit on the name), then it might overflow on small screens. If it's long because of a user error, then it's good, at least it will be spotted, reported and fixed.

Looks good so far. The actions look worse than the title, we should remove the text labels from there. We could make this an integration test, similar to the orphaned pages. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/ _______________________________________________ devs mailing list devs(a)xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs

That was my idea initially but since we cannot have filters and sort on titles, we cannot get rid of the "name" column. (+ the name column is handy for advanced users that resonate by doc name not title).

And in the end, I think it's good to have both both name and title next one to another. It helps users getting to understand that they are two different things. Jerome.
