Re: Testing 2.0a2

No, I don't have the knowledge to do it. Right now I learn step by step the GIT.

The problem with the module icons not displaying is in the block template (or the block function, if you want the smarty var to be $mod.image instead of $mod.iconbig)



Thanks, this works and has to be applied to modules/system/templates/system_admin_block_modules.html

Re: Testing 2.0a2

Found that the issue with the imLinks submit forms is caused by the insertBreak().

insertBreak() causes the Fatal error: Call to a member function isRequired() on a non-object in ...\libraries\icms\form\Theme.php on line 58.

Re: Testing 2.0a2

Found the issue with IPF table in Firefox as mentioned above.

In the form of imLinks (admin/links.php) there's this line:
$objectTable -> addHeader( '<span style="float: left; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; color: #0A3760;">' . _AM_IMLINKS_MINDEX_PUBLISHEDLINK . '</span>' );

It seems that the float-statement is causing the issue in Firefox.
Question is why it's an issue for Firefox and not for browsers like IE10 and Opera?

Re: Testing 2.0a2

Just started digging through it, looks great. A few suggestions:

* Found a problem in /libraries/icms/core/DataFilter.php that was inserting additional line breaks into legacy content (ticket 712).

* Admin panel - the top menu text is a bit too small for an old man like me to read.

* Module admin, would be good if the module logos were clickable in addition to the titles.

* Module info pop up, the 'close' link doesn't work and is also redundant as there is a close button.

* Module admin menus - I get a bullet list now, no tabs, not sure if this is intended or not.

Had a quick look at compatibility with Gone Native modules, they will need some adjustment to work but I don't think it will be a big deal. Some approaches I had relied on quite a bit like getting the object handler name using basename(dirname(__FILE__ etc don't seem to work anymore, as it is returning the system module even when it looks like I am in some other module directory.

More to come.

All Css :)

/libraries/jscore/app/modules/adminMenu/adminMenu.css

Line 10

Maybe 11px?

Re: Testing 2.0a2

I was testing a little on the interface.
I'd like to ask two things...

Wouldn't it be nice to make the whole theme (front and back end) responsive and with fluid layouts?

Further I think the control panel blocks and module icons wouldn't actually need to be in a block using icons but all the functions could be inserted into a left column in an accordion menu to save space and to create a more modern approach to the admin...

For the remaining space we could have a dashboard with recent interactions or some useful stats as site access, pendind actions, quick posts or something similar...

Just my 2 cents

Since Bootstrap.js is at the heart of the UI refactoring, I think this is already being implemented. Look into themes/core/theme.html and themes/core/theme_settings.html for hints

Way back when ... Incama shared some ideas for this

More than just ideas - a few more people rolling up their sleeves, creating branches in git for the UI, and adding their ideas will move this along.

It is responsive.

As far as fluid - that is a matter of taste - and as I am the sole contributor to the new UI at this point the UI pretty much reflects my taste. Thus, not fluid. I could see the benefit to a wordpress-like admin panel, which is what I assume you have in mind - and I have given you the tools to accomplish it quite easily.

So pull up a branch, and share your vision. You can accomplish this part with a simple skin

Re: Testing 2.0a2

I see what you mean, but actually my admin is totally different from the core one because I think we could make it more modern looking not only in visual but also in features for newbies or not so technical users.

One thing I'd like to see is that we could be able to produce more flexible form layouts by adding a new param that would allow us to reposition the form fields in a grouped way or slimpy allowing to have two fields side-by-side or even being able to create categories in news in an ajaxed approach.

I know how to do it but if this could be a core feature it would help many others, maybe not so good coders, that could generate simpler modules through imbuilding.

After having built over 50 commercial modules to tailored solutions I think this could be a nice add-on.

Re: Testing 2.0a2

Ok, well - put in a feature request I guess. I don't really see what is difficult about using fieldsets and css though. And bootstrap is at the core of the system now... sooooooo.....

<form class="form-inline"> <input type="text" class="input-small" placeholder="Email"> <input type="password" class="input-small" placeholder="Password"> <label class="checkbox"> <input type="checkbox"> Remember me </label> <button type="submit" class="btn">Sign in</button> </form>

Re: Testing 2.0a2

yep, that's a feature request, not a bug report
