+1 to the proposal.
I also agree that Application should probably there only for Admins or
Advanced Users.
This might be true for "Create Space" also.
We might be missing some rights here for "Create Space". This is a
long issue with the auto-creation of spaces which is allowed by XWiki,
where as long as you have edit rights on the wiki, you get space
creation rights without even necessarly having to go through the space
creation itself. This is probably another subject that we need to
handle separately.
Right now I suggest we only show Create Space and Create Applications
to Admin AND Advanced Users.

Hi,
This is a proposal regarding the improvement of the Add menu in order to:
- specify a template for the newly created entities (space/page);
- specify also applications templates;
- some improvements for the create page step: the ability to select an
existing space or create a non-existing one + position changes.
You can see the proposal at
http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Improvements/CreateMenuProposal
The "Add" menu could contain just the entries:
- Page
- Space
- Application
Maybe "Application" should be displayed only for advanced users, WDYT?
In the usability interviews I had, no one used
the other shortcuts
('Comment
to page; Attachment to page'), but the interviewers were not beginners
users, so if someone from the community is using those shortcuts please
tell
us if you want to keep them.
The Create Space step relates to
http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-6684
The Create Page step relates to http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XE-897
For the application homepage
http://incubator.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Improvements/ApplicationWit…
the create action will auto-generate the page name (according to the
options) and will preserve the current space [1].
Sounds good to me.
With this proposal we can benefit from the contextual actions (for
applicationWithinMinutes inside the designated
space) but we are not
dependent completely of the space, being able to create application
instances in an universal manner from the "Add" menu.
Also, the existing behavior for the wiki pages will be preserved.
That's cool.
The default option for the template + location
will modify accordingly to
the context where the "Add" menu was launched.
Please provide feedback.
Thanks,
Caty
