[xwiki-devs] [Usability] Newbie feedback - Creating pages
by Vincent Massol 17 Oct '16

17 Oct '16

Hi devs, Over the weekend I asked my brother in law (who doesn’t anything about XWiki) to test it and give me some feedback. He did this test with me next to him so I could observe and ask him what was going through his head. I’m sending below a summary of the session. We now need to address each point and see what we want to do to improve the situation. The Setup ======== * HSQLDB/Jetty already setup with an Admin user already logged in. * I had made the Admin user a simple user. * I later realized that I had forgotten to remove my local cookie on my computer and he didn’t have the Tour. Thus I don’t know if he’d have read it till the end of not. * I asked him 2 things only: ** Create some new pages ** Modify the home page The Feedback =========== * First thing he wanted to do was to switch the UI to French (he’s French). He looked for his user profile, found it, and couldn’t find a way to change the language. Fail. I had to tell give him the hint that language was a global wiki-level setting and I had to do it for him. Other feedback: The French translation for the language settings is really not user-friendly and needs to be changed, it’s currently “Localisation”, which is too technical. * Then he said he spotted a bug. The home page had a title of “Home” in French instead of “Accueil”. * He looked around in the UI and at some point he clicked on Page Administration on the home page. This opened a UI with a title of "Administration : Main”. He asked: “what is Main?”. Indeed he was on the home page that was entitled “Home” and suddenly he was shown “Main” which 1/ was in English and 2/ didn’t mean anything to him. * Then he went on to create a new page and initially was looking for that in the drawer in the Wiki Administration UI… At some point, I had to tell him to stop and I created a simple user for him (that is not Admin so that he couldn’t do in the wiki administration - I should have started with this probably although we need to fix our issue that first time users are admins). Once this was done he was able to quickly find the “+” to create a new page. * However, he wanted to create a structure with a “Domain” folder and some pages inside that folder. He saw the Tree in the Navigation Panel and saw that it was hierarchical and thus he wanted to do the same and create that “Domain” folder first. So he cancelled the Create Page UI since this was about creating a page and he wanted a folder. He then found the “Children Pages” entry in the “More” menu. Note that in French it’s badly labelled as “Enfant de XXX” which was weird to him (FTR it’s also invalid grammatically, missing an “s” for plural) but he understood it was related to children page he suggested “Sous-pages” as a better translation). So he clicked on it and he saw a form displayed (actually it was the filter of the LT UI). And he started typing “Domain” in the text input but nothing happened and he was puzzled. —> When you look at the children LT for a page not having children, you’ll see that we should improve the UI. It doesn’t even say that’s it’s empty and that there are no children pages… * At this point he was a bit stuck and couldn’t understand how to create a folder. I had to tell him that in XWiki you could created hierarchical pages and that there’s no notion of folders (I didn’t want to explain the concept of Spaces especially since he hide this in the UI). He mentioned that after 20 years of Microsoft practice, everyone understands the concept of folders and files and that it’s hard to understand that we only have hierarchical pages. He suggest that we may want to have 2 “+” buttons next to each other (like “+” and “++” or some other visual with a tooltip of “Créer page” and “Créer sous-page"). One to create sibling pages and another one to create children pages). In his head, the default when you create a page is to create a sibling page, not a sub-page. * After this he was able to create his pages (note that he used immediately the templates we provided for his test and selected the Encyclopedia template). * He noted that the icon for Rename/Move/Delete was weird and he didn’t understand the relationship between the actions and the icon which is the one for settings (the cog). He suggested to use something different like a rubber (which incidentally I see that it’s missing from http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/XWiki+Icon+Set and we need to add it). FYI he was no longer Admin at this point so the “Page Administration” entry wasn’t visible. * When he edited his first page, he quickly told me that that the “Save” buttons are way too hidden (they’re usually not even visible when you edit if you don’t scroll down). He was expecting them to see them at the top, close to the page menus. He suggested that we should have a horizontal bar that stays always visible when you scroll down and that contains the save buttons. * At this point he created a hierarchy of pages and then wanted to move some page around to test this feature. However he could find the menu entry to do so. He could easily find the move, copy and delete entries but that’s not what he was looking for. The reason is that the French translation is “Renommer”. On English I see that we’ve now renamed it to "core.menu.rename=Move / Rename”. But the French translation is still “Renommer”. When I suggested to have “Renommer / Déplacer” to him he said that he’d simply call it “Déplacer” since for renaming a page he doesn’t need to go to that screen and he can simply edit the page and change the title. He said it’s fine to leave the ability to change the title on the Move UI but that it was just a nice bonus and not the main goal of this screen in his opinion. * On the Rename UI screen, he started by clicking in the source breadcrumb, and he was surprised that the browser navigated away. Later on he realized that the was a target section. At this point he commented that he expected to see the target first since that’s what he wanted to change. He also suggested that if would be simpler to use if the target breadcrumb was replaced by a Tree to choose the new location. * When he tried to modify the home page he did it very easily and was able to put his own content. When I told him that some user find it difficult to understand that they could modify the home page he said that it’s not the first thing he’d have done. * On the positive side, the navigation panel was really nice for him. He kept using it all the time to navigate. Thus navigation wasn’t an issue for him. That’s it. Hope we can use this to improve basic user experience. The biggest item by far is to make users understand that there’s no folder and that there’s only hierarchical pages. I think I like his idea of the 2 add buttons (create sibling page and create children page), or something similar (I guess the Create UI itself could have a different UI to ask the user clearly if he/she wants to create a sibling or a children page). Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Officially deprecate GWT WYSIWYG editor and don't fix issues related to it
by Vincent Massol 17 Oct '16

17 Oct '16

Hi devs, I’d like that we agree on an official position re the GWT WYSIWYG editor. We’ve already decided to make CKEditor the default editor and to keep the GWT editor bundled (but off by default) till the end of the 8.x cycle. I’d like now that we agree about 2 points: * We don’t fix issues related to the GWT editor that do not reproduce on the CKEditor editor. * Now remains the question as to whether we close them as won’t fix or not. Ideally the best IMO is to create a new JIRA project for the GWT Editor in the Contributed Extensions category, and move all opened JIRA issues to it. We create a version labelled “Previous versions when the GWT editor was in platform” so that we can use that as affects. Of course another option would be to not touch those issues FTM and wait till we do the move in 9.0+. I prefer moving the issues now if we agree now that we don’t fix issues related to the GWT editor. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Having the docextra tabs in edit mode.
by Guillaume Delhumeau 17 Oct '16

17 Oct '16

Hi. Currently a user have 2 ways to attach a file to a wiki page: - in the attachment tab in VIEW mode only ; - if it's an image, using a WYSIWYG editor. However, if it's not an image, you cannot add it while you're writing the content. It's a bit as if you were not able to attach a file while you were writing an email... not user friendly! So we have this issue: http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-5400 To fix it, I see 2 options: - add the handling of attachments in edit mode. - add *all* docextra tabs like we have in view mode (it's not because you are editing a page that you don't need to see the history of the page, nor the comments). But this might be not relevant for the class and the object editor. My proposal: * Display docextra tabs by default. * In class and object editors, set $docExtras = []. * Set $docExtras = [] in all sheets where we consider it's not relevant to have the tabs. WDYT? Thanks, -- Guillaume Delhumeau (guillaume.delhumeau(a)xwiki.com) Research & Development Engineer at XWiki SAS Committer on the XWiki.org project

Re: [xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Having the docextra tabs in edit mode.

+1 for your proposal until we have a better solution. I would avoid comment tab if ever possible, since it increase the inconveniences already explained. I agree with almost all other comments, but until we have time for something better, this proposal would be a first improvement. We should just ensure it does not cause any regression. -- Denis Gervalle SOFTEC sa - CEO On Fri, Oct 14, 2016 at 12:19 PM, Denis Gervalle <denis.gervalle(a)softec.lu> wrote: +1 for your proposal until we have a better solution.

[xwiki-devs] [Vote] Introduce a 'displayPageHeader' parameter in the query string in Flamingo
by Guillaume Delhumeau 12 Oct '16

12 Oct '16

Hello. In Flamingo, we have a variable called $displayPageHeader, defined in layoutvars.vm. When it is set, the logo is not displayed in the top menu, but on a header under it. It is used by some clients, where they could also add some extra content. Example: http://tof.canardpc.com/view/83040d2d-79c4-4f1b-ab1b-af8ee5f3be62.jpg I'd like to expose this variable into the Flamingo Theme, see: http://jira.xwiki.org/secure/attachment/33074/33074_preview.png However, in order to enable the live preview in the theme editor, I need to be able to change the value of the $displayPageHeader variable on the fly, or at least by setting a parameter in the query string. This variable will be: displayPageHeader Possible values: "true", "false" Default value: Fallback to the Flamingo Theme, "false" if empty. I don't have other use-case to cover with this variable. Here is my +1. Thanks, -- Guillaume Delhumeau (guillaume.delhumeau(a)xwiki.com) Research & Development Engineer at XWiki SAS Committer on the XWiki.org project
