Public bug reported: This is part of the page revamp: https://wiki.mahara.org/wiki/Developer_Area/Specifications_in_Development/Page_layout_revision
Currently, the "Add comment" and "Details" links at blocks that can have them, takes you to a separate page where you can view the artefact's metadata and can leave comments. When you view comments, they are already displayed in the modal directly on the page, but you can't leave a comment yet. The things to be done: - Combine comments, add comment, Details to "Comments and details" (or just comments or just details depending on what can be displayed) so you only have one link. - Clicking that link opens up a modal on the page that shows the artefacts details (if there are any) and also the comments, as well as allows you to leave comments if that is enabled. Please see the attached mock-up. This would also mean to review all the "Details" on blocks as some of them are not needed. For example, clicking the details link next to a plan task only shows that single plan task again without any additional details. The "Details" should only be there when there is additional metadata information but not simply repeating the block content. The title of the modal (the one in the green bar) would be the blocktype as the title of the block is listed below. A decision still needs to be made on whether comments can be paginated in the modal or if they are shown all one after another (which might get quite long). We are not changing anything else from the proposal as that requires Gridstack to be implemented first. This is a standalone usability improvement independent of Gridstack. ** Affects: mahara Importance: Wishlist Assignee: Lisa Seeto (lisaseeto) Status: Confirmed ** Tags: usability ** Attachment added: "Mahara_details.png" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1827811/+attachment/5261668/+files/Mahara_details.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.
