I’m fine with MCR2.A too for now.
I think I’d have preferred a wizard approach with several steps. Rationale:
- less items visible on each screen. I find it a bit overwhelming to try to cram
everything on one screen
- more space to add future refactoring options
Thus I’d have liked to use a wizard approach similar to what we do for the Distribution
Wizard or the Create Wiki wizard. For example have one step for viewing all affected pages
when deleting or all page that will have their parents modified, etc.
Also note that a nice option (while waiting for the alias solution,
see http://markmail.org/message/d34smnyap5y6l24c) would be to have a checkbox to leave a
redirect when Renaming or Moving wiki pages. If this is selected we would put a
$response.sendRedirect(…) call as
in http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Redirect (this could be done later
on ofc but it’s also not very complex to do and would provide a nice feature that is asked
by xwiki users).
Thanks

About Move/Rename/Copy, I also say +1 for MCR2.A.
So it seems MCR 2.A is the favorite choice in the community.

Hi Caty,
I feel the create UI has too many options. Even if they have defaults,
the user may still loose time scanning / understanding what they mean
(e.g. "is this setting useful to me?"). Ideally, the user should
select at most the type of page to create (blank or from a template)
before entering the edit mode. The rest could be changed afterwards,
from edit mode (e.g. title) or after the document is saved (e.g. move
to a new location). But this requires more work, so +1 for TL.
Regarding the create tree, the document location is IMO the document
reference, so the "parent" + the "identifier". Thus it doesn't
make
sense to me to have a separate identifier field and a location field.
There should be only one Location field. When you edit the location
you should be able to change the parent and the identifier. For the
identifier a plain text input is enough. For the parent we can use the
tree. The proposal that matches this is Tree 3, so +1 for that.
+1 for Delete 1+2: Count + Link
For move/copy/rename, I agree with Edy that it's best to have separate
screens. For rename the way we specify the target page should be
consistent with the create UI, as Edy suggested (i.e. title +
location, and the location gets expanded into parent + identifier).
For the move/copy we should reuse the "expanded" version of the
Location field from the create UI (i.e. parent + identifier, where
identifier is read-only of course). So something close to MCR 2.A.
Thanks,
Marius
