User friendly success/error messages in eCommerce application
-------------------------------------------------------------
Key: OFBIZ-2426
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-2426
Project: OFBiz
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: specialpurpose/ecommerce
Affects Versions: SVN trunk
Reporter: Pranay Pandey
Priority: Minor
Fix For: SVN trunk
I want to propose a change and want to ask for the suggestions for the way to
go for it.
*Proposal:*
Should have appropriate user friendly success/error messages for eCommerce
applicaiton on the execution of an event from user. As eCommerce is the
customer facing application.
E.g.
# When user creates his/her profile then then the *success message* shown is
*"The following occurred:
The action was performed successfully. "* while it should be shown something
like: *"New user created successfully."* or *"User profile created
successfully"*
# When we talk about an error message then e.g. when user tries to login with
wrong userId or pwd the message shown is *"The Following Errors Occurred:
error following occurred during login: User not found."* which should be
something like: *"User not found"* or when password is incorrect *"Password is
incorrect"*
There are more places where this can observed well that the success/error
messages are not best suited for eCommerce application.
Right now for both of back-office and front-end(eCommerce) application we use
the same common/webcommon/includes/messages.ftl which shows the same messages
as of back office application for many operations.
The idea is we should introduce a new Messages.ftl file for ecommerce only
which will show user friendly error/success messages to the front-end user who
is the customer.
I would really appreciate comments from community members on this issue.
