Re: r3822/3: New Sections panel
Nice. But I’d suggest putting ‘article count’ column between ‘title’ and ‘page’ columns. Seems a more logical flow to me.

I don’t think so.
Most of the time when I visit the sections tab I’m about to look into a section’s native properties. Article count is a “nice to have” neatly tucked away in the far right when I’m in need of that information but doesn’t interfere with the “real” section properties.

Ok. Fine by me.

Since the article counts link to search pages, there is the small issues of results showing articles from other sections than just the one. E.g. search for section m shows articles from sections misc, media and home.
Looking at the search functions, the admin-side searches do not support quoted search terms as does <txp:article/>. Shouldn’t it? If quoting support is added (e.g. crit="m"), quoted section searches could also be used for the article counts. Doesn’t sound bad, right?

Hmm, is that me, or does the lang file still need updating for the latest changes? When I go to the Sections pane, a couple of strings still are displayed as, e.g ‘create_section’, ‘default_write_section’, and so on. Similar on the edit pane for images (‘edit_image’) and files.

Yeah, it needs updating.

Ok, thanks. I suddenly though something was wrong with the update process on my side. No worries then.

On the individual section page, shouldn’t there be a “cancel” or back button? Its not safe to assume a user will wish to only “save”.

Cancel buttons are something I plan to add to all edit panes, as they will all be modals they’ll need this functionality. I’ll talk with Stef about it this week.

OK, I’ve added cancel buttons to edit panes in the UI doc, unless I hear otherwise I’ll get Stef to work this into the next patch.

You’d need to add a class to those <button>s so that they can be styled [*] to match the submit buttons (layout wise, at least). It is the only use of <button> in the admin backend so far, but still.
[*] … without resorting to endlessly long selectors.
[**] possible suggestion: .cancel-edit ?
