To help narrow things down, we&#8217;re now focusing on two things:</p> <p><strong>1) &#8220;Finishing&#8221; the existing API such that you can register new post statuses with expected results (no bugs, etc.).</strong></p> <p>Last week, Nacin and I had a <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/01/18/editorial-flow-update-118/">long conversation</a> about how enhancing the post status API in various ways could lead to complex, fully-featured workflows. We discussed again yesterday after the core IRC chat, and decided these enhancements still need more conceptual development. Instead, we&#8217;ll be focusing on the extent of<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/12706"> #12706</a>&#8242;s description:</p> <blockquote><p>A developer should be able to register a custom post status using register_post_status(). The admin UI (including post submit box and quick edit) should reflect this new custom post status. Furthermore, there are many hard-coded references to &#8216;draft&#8217; and &#8216;pending&#8217; statuses in core that should properly use the post status API.</p> <p>All existing arguments to register_post_status() should be fully implemented, should also support per-post-type arguments. As things get implemented across core, there will likely be a need for supporting capabilities and bits of API.</p></blockquote> <p>I hope to have a working, testable implementation of this by next week, using existing patches and maybe some new code.</p> <p><strong>2) Allowing already published posts to be revised without being updated immediately.</strong></p> <p>We discussed a few possible implementations of this. Our conclusion is to go with the simplest possible implementation, as there are already a few plugins to handle more complex implementations.</p> <p>Right now, it&#8217;s looking like this: a &#8216;draft revision&#8217; can be created of an already published post. If a &#8216;draft revision&#8217; of a post exists, it will appear in the post editor (instead of the published content). Anyone with appropriate permissions can make edits to the &#8216;draft revision&#8217; without having those changes go live. Then, at some future point, the &#8216;draft revision&#8217; can be pushed live to take the place of the original published post.</p> <p>Kovshenin will be working on wireframes for this over the weekend.</p> <p><strong>We want your help!</strong></p> <ul> <li>What use cases do you have for the second, user-facing feature? The more details you can provide, the better.</li> <li>Have you come across software which does the second piece well? Notably, it would let users easily choose between pushing their update live immediately, or continuing to work on and save their changes as draft.</li> </ul> <p>The next office hours will be Tuesday, January 22nd at 10 am PT / 1 pm ET / 1800 UTC.</p> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/https://irclogs.wordpress.org/chanlog.php?channel=wordpress-dev&amp;day=2013-01-24&amp;sort=asc#m539794" rel="nofollow">https://irclogs.wordpress.org/chanlog.php?channel=wordpress-dev&#038;day=2013-01-24&#038;sort=asc#m539794</a></p> </div> <div class="discussion" style="display: none"> <p> <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541im_/http://1.gravatar.com/avatar/d1759b1c669981b7c52ec9a97d19e6bd?s=16&amp;d=http%3A%2F%2F1.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D16&amp;r=G" class="avatar avatar-16 photo" height="16" width="16"/> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://www.jeremyfelt.com/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">Jeremy Felt</a>, <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541im_/http://1.gravatar.com/avatar/3094298ee1d4ce597e3b5319436e3e99?s=16&amp;d=http%3A%2F%2F1.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D16&amp;r=G" class="avatar avatar-16 photo" height="16" width="16"/> sourceforge, <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541im_/http://0.gravatar.com/avatar/c6d87b472b471d66cd4cb8302273df9b?s=16&amp;d=http%3A%2F%2F0.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D16&amp;r=G" class="avatar avatar-16 photo" height="16" width="16"/> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://stresslimitdesign.com/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">cvernon</a>, and 10 others are discussing. <a href="#" class="show-comments">Toggle Comments</a> </p> </div> <div class="bottom-of-entry">&nbsp;</div> <ul id="comments-2819" class="commentlist inlinecomments"> <li id="comment-7743" class="comment byuser comment-author-mordauk even thread-even depth-1"> <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541im_/http://0.gravatar.com/avatar/edcaf8a5c1dc7c741113d772e767bfc2?s=32&amp;d=http%3A%2F%2F0.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D32&amp;r=G" class="avatar avatar-32 photo" height="32" width="32"/> <h4> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://pippinsplugins.com/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">Pippin (mordauk)</a> <span class="meta"> <abbr title="2013-01-24T19:50:52Z">7:50 pm <em>on</em> January 24, 2013</abbr> <span class="actions"> <a class="thepermalink" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/01/24/editorial-flow-update-124/#comment-7743" title="Permalink">Permalink</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fmake.wordpress.org%2Fcore%2F2013%2F01%2F24%2Feditorial-flow-update-124%2F">Log in to Reply</a> </span> </span> </h4> <div id="commentcontent-7743" class="commentcontent"><p>2).

This is similar to git branches, where &#8220;master&#8221; e.g. is just a pointer to a specific commit, and committing to that branch makes a new commit and then bumps the branch.

Then, if you change images or custom fields, and then abandon the edit, we just throw away the duplicated &#8216;draft&#8217; post + meta + attachments.

Simple to me is simple interface that is intuitive that doesn&#8217;t take multiple clicks to get to.</p> </div> </li> <li id="comment-7731" class="comment byuser comment-author-cliffseal odd alt thread-odd thread-alt depth-1"> <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541im_/http://0.gravatar.com/avatar/a32b058efa650fa963e8f0b284c08e04?s=32&amp;d=http%3A%2F%2F0.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D32&amp;r=G" class="avatar avatar-32 photo" height="32" width="32"/> <h4> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://cliffseal.com/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">Cliff Seal</a> <span class="meta"> <abbr title="2013-01-24T14:35:39Z">2:35 pm <em>on</em> January 24, 2013</abbr> <span class="actions"> <a class="thepermalink" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/01/23/for-tomorrows-menu-office-hours-i-only/#comment-7731" title="Permalink">Permalink</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fmake.wordpress.org%2Fcore%2F2013%2F01%2F23%2Ffor-tomorrows-menu-office-hours-i-only%2F">Log in to Reply</a> </span> </span> </h4> <div id="commentcontent-7731" class="commentcontent"><p>I think the flow of #2 would be most scalable and easiest for first-time menu creators to do what they want—but, can we incorporate the accordion-looking &#8216;Add Items&#8230;&#8217; menu from the Nacin concept?

My main point is that the second largest (if not largest) UI real-estate area should go to the &#8220;things I can add to the menu&#8221;.<br/> 2. The tabbed area makes it possible to allocate more real-estate to each of the &#8220;types of things&#8221; that can be added to the menu. I see no need to have on screen at the same multiple sources. If I am looking for posts &#8211; then let me see just posts. When I want to select from pages or categories or anything else I don&#8217;t need to scroll down to look for them &#8230; and to lose sight (literally) of the menu I am working on.<br/> 3. Within the tabbed area there is then plenty of space that can be used for better search and filtering.<br/> 4. Because the spaces are tabbed it may be possible to do on demand loading of data (instead of loading everything, everytime the screen loads). That may drastically improve page performance &#8230;<br/> 5. AND you can use that improved performance to do a smarter load &#8230; like indicating somehow which items have already been added to the menu.<br/> 6. You can still add checkboxes for selecting multiple items and an &#8220;add to menu&#8221; button. However what I tried to suggest was one click add instead of two click add. Instead of clicking to select each menu and then having to move the moust somewhere else AND clicking one more time &#8220;add to menu&#8221; you simply add directly. It feels to me like a faster, smoother and more efficient experience (unless I am missing something).</p> </div> <ul class="children"> <li id="comment-7768" class="comment byuser comment-author-lessbloat bypostauthor odd alt depth-2"> <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541im_/http://0.gravatar.com/avatar/4c5da16f1f65bd9824bc30cb1cc62e8f?s=32&amp;d=http%3A%2F%2F0.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D32&amp;r=G" class="avatar avatar-32 photo" height="32" width="32"/> <h4> lessbloat <span class="meta"> <abbr title="2013-01-25T14:22:24Z">2:22 pm <em>on</em> January 25, 2013</abbr> <span class="actions"> <a class="thepermalink" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/01/23/for-tomorrows-menu-office-hours-i-only/#comment-7768" title="Permalink">Permalink</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fmake.wordpress.org%2Fcore%2F2013%2F01%2F23%2Ffor-tomorrows-menu-office-hours-i-only%2F">Log in to Reply</a> </span> </span> </h4> <div id="commentcontent-7768" class="commentcontent"><blockquote><p>I think that all three designs fail to address a core issue in the menu-editing screen.

It doesn&#8217;t fit with the other two accordion options (add items, copy items). If a user is required to select from multiple menus, I still feel fairly strongly that we need to separate the &#8220;manage&#8221; functionality from &#8220;add/edit&#8221; functionality, otherwise there is just too much to take in on that single screen.</li> <li>The concept of copying menu items from one menu to another works from a technical standpoint, but it seems overly complex.</li> <li>To think that someone who just switched their theme will know to copy their menu items in order to bring their menu items over from their other theme is asking too much. Even if we could provide contextual help, it seems way more confusing than the way it is now (choose a menu for each theme location and click save).</li> <li>I feel like this approach over complicates widget menu creation as well. The old way of adding a title, and selecting a menu seems like an easier flow to grok than forcing users to make a choice between creating a menu or selecting an existing one, and then switching contexts from widgets to menus and then back to widgets again in the same flow.</li> <li>The concept of having &#8220;Menus in your theme&#8221;, and &#8220;other menus&#8221; under &#8220;Select a menu&#8221;, complicates things. It&#8217;s hard to tell the difference between the two. The user will wonder why they cannot delete the &#8220;menus in your theme&#8221; menus, but they can delete the &#8220;other menus&#8221;.</li> <li>What happens if a user switches themes a dozen times (trying to find the right one). They&#8217;d come to menus and find at least a dozen menus from all the previous themes they tried (since the idea here is to pre-build all theme location menus for each theme). Not to mention, we&#8217;d have to write the code that pre-creates all theme location menus each time you switch a theme.</li> <li>While, hiding the &#8220;add menu&#8221; button seemingly simplifies things for new users, I don&#8217;t think it will work. Existing users will wonder where it went. If we leave it there, new users will no doubt get lost trying to add a new menu (either following one of hundreds of existing menus tutorials on the web, or by following instructions in a book, or by just stumbling onto it), when in fact their theme locations menus are already created.</li> <li>If we add icons for each menu item option (in the vertical tabs), what happens when you add a CPT? Would they have to add their own icon? That sounds too complex. I don&#8217;t think we can use icons here.</li> </ul> <p><strong>In contrast</strong></p> <p>Out of the last 3 users we tested on option 2 (see results <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/ui/2013/01/11/here-are-the-results-from-user-7-in/" rel="nofollow">here</a> and <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/ui/2013/01/21/i-thought-id-run-one-more-user-through/" rel="nofollow">here</a>), one of them completed all of the tasks flawlessly, and the other two only stumbled on a single step (selecting a primary menu).</p> <p>After the meeting on Thursday, I was fairly confident that we could make option 1 work. After working though all of the edge cases, I&#8217;m now much less confident.</p> <p><strong>My proposal</strong></p> <p>What if instead of diving head first into option 1, we instead chose to keep iterating on option 2:</p> <ul> <li>We could spend our energy iterating on the one piece that still seems broken (selecting a theme location), instead of trying to smooth out all of the complexities that come with option 1.</li> <li>We could simplify things for users with just one menu. If they only have one menu, we could remove the tabs and the manage screen, and take them right to editing that one menu.</li> <li>We could bring the new vertical tab menu items selection concept over (I much prefer that to meta boxes, and having to scroll if you have lots of them).</li> </ul> <p>That&#8217;s my proposal, what do you think?</p> </div> <ul class="children"> <li id="comment-7784" class="comment byuser comment-author-iamronen even depth-3"> <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541im_/http://0.gravatar.com/avatar/2e25520901bb826e14cde98de6be38f5?s=32&amp;d=http%3A%2F%2F0.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D32&amp;r=G" class="avatar avatar-32 photo" height="32" width="32"/> <h4> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://www.iamronen.com/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">iamronen</a> <span class="meta"> <abbr title="2013-01-26T17:59:52Z">5:59 pm <em>on</em> January 26, 2013</abbr> <span class="actions"> <a class="thepermalink" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/01/23/for-tomorrows-menu-office-hours-i-only/#comment-7784" title="Permalink">Permalink</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fmake.wordpress.org%2Fcore%2F2013%2F01%2F23%2Ffor-tomorrows-menu-office-hours-i-only%2F">Log in to Reply</a> </span> </span> </h4> <div id="commentcontent-7784" class="commentcontent"><p>I think that a lot of the complexity you mentioned is rooted in what may be a false notion that menus are a part of the site &#8220;appearance&#8221; &#8211; that they belong to a theme.</p> <p>A different view would be that menus are another means of organizing &#8220;things&#8221; in my website (kind of like categories are used to organize posts).</p> <p>Though the primary purpose of menus is for navigating in the site (indeed a thing of appearance) that is not what governs their content. </p> <p>My intuition (I have no data to back this up) tells me that most people (who have one menu) when they change themes, do not change menus. I can definitely say that in almost all of the websites that I&#8217;ve created that have had many menus &#8211; that the menus should have stayed when themes switched (the fact that they don&#8217;t has forced me to do twisted things in my theme management practices). </p> <p>I believe that the fact that menus are a part of themes is a behavior that has evolved from their technical development, not from what they are and do. Their underlying story is just now surfacing.</p> <p>If you free menus to be another organizational entity regardless of appearance (though I realize this may be way beyond the scope of 3.6) then they most absolutely should be split into the common WordPress paradigm of managed list and single-item edit. </p> <p>I also believe that presented in this way, people will more quickly understand that they can create more menus (since they know this visual paradigm intimately from working with posts and pages). </p> <p>This way:</p> <ul> <li>menus will be more straightforward and intuitive.</li> <li>there won&#8217;t be a need for complex behaviors such as &#8220;copying menus&#8221; which will only create useless copies of the same thing.</li> <li>there won&#8217;t be a need for a unique and complicated interaction and relationship between menus and widgets (the current widget is fine and will be better understood once menus become more clear)</li> </ul> <p>The only apsect of menus that I can think of that should remain as part of the appearance/theme configuration would be theme locations.</p> <p>I realize this may sound radical &#8230; but I believe that the complexities you listed are telling us that the underlying story of menus has not been properly addressed and it needs to be re-examined if a good solution is to be found.</p> </div> </li> </ul> </li> </ul> </li> </ul> </li> <li id="prologue-2810" class="post-2810 post type-post status-publish format-standard hentry category-uncategorized tag-3-6 tag-revisions"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/author/westi/" title="Posts by Peter Westwood ( @westi )" class="post-avatar"> <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541im_/http://1.gravatar.com/avatar/5b3b5ce04dd402124aba53142b3e47f6?s=48&amp;d=http%3A%2F%2F1.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D48&amp;r=G" class="avatar avatar-48 photo" height="48" width="48"/> </a> <h4> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/author/westi/" title="Posts by Peter Westwood ( @westi )">Peter Westwood</a> <span class="meta"> <abbr title="2013-01-23T09:42:37Z">9:42 am <em>on</em> January 23, 2013</abbr> <span class="actions"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/01/23/revisions-update-jan-22nd/" class="thepermalink" title="Permalink">Permalink</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fmake.wordpress.org%2Fcore%2F2013%2F01%2F23%2Frevisions-update-jan-22nd%2F">Log in to leave a Comment</a> </span> <span class="tags"> <br/>Tags: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/tag/3-6/" rel="tag">3.6 ( 21 )</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/tag/revisions/" rel="tag">revisions ( 4 )</a> &nbsp;&nbsp; </span> </span> </h4> <div id="content-2810" class="postcontent"> <h2><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/01/23/revisions-update-jan-22nd/">Revisions Update, Jan 22nd&nbsp;</a></h2><p>This week the revisions team had our first in-person meeting and we started by setting out office hours for this cycle which are 4pm UTC on Mondays and Thursdays.

The Request/Take over a lock button will only show when the same post is being edited by another user. Under normal circumstances posts would never be locked on installs with only one user. However if the user opens the same post on two different devices (computers) or in two different browsers, the first instance should lock the second. That should also happen if several people use the same user account.</p> <p>We already monitor when a post is being edited and show a warning.

Sergey&#8217;s Trac activity can best be described as omnipresent. He has had many hundreds of contributions, large and small, accepted to WordPress core. His contributions are always thoroughly researched, with links to related tickets and changesets often going back to a previous decade.

To put it succinctly, we are looking to address discoverability, value, and usability, approximately in that order. We will at some point need to talk about how users get there in the first place, but again, for now let&#8217;s focus on the add/edit post screen. We briefly touched on what would happen to the UI if the theme doesn&#8217;t support the post format &#8211; there seems to be early consensus that the UI itself stay altered (e.g. if there were a separate input for a link URL) but there would be a warning of some sort about the lack of theme support.</p> <p>A large portion of our office hour today was spent discussing a script for user testing that we can use throughout this process to help us evaluate the changes proposed. We need to use a theme that includes all ten formats, doesn&#8217;t do anything to the admin UI, and preferably does something to the front end display for each. One that I know of is <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/san-kloud">San Kloud</a>, although it has some deprecated function usage (hey @kovshenin &#8211; want to fix that? <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541im_/http://make.wordpress.org/core/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" class="wp-smiley"/> ); other suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Since the first part of the issue here is discoverability, the script needs to not hand-hold the format selection or entry process. Here&#8217;s a rough outline of what it might look like &#8211; discuss any changes in the comments, and <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/mentions/lessbloat/" class="mention">@lessbloat</a> will help us get testing. Some of these are particularly difficult to describe in a non-leading manner. Through each of these, it would be good to have the user narrate what they want or expect will happen for each of these formats. A little fuzzy since we&#8217;re not going to point them at the format picker and a given tester may not be used to blogging, but the more narration of thinking/expectations, the better.</p> <ul> <li>Standard/text: Add a blog post entitled X, with the following text.

I guess the question is: do we want to commit to this concept in a big way or have it be a subtle option? I feel that committing to formats and optimizing the workflow in that area is a good idea.</p> <p>If we do use a more aggressive workflow like above, we should have an option for a user who dose not want formats (even though their theme enables them, and no matter if you switch themes) to turn them off in core. </p> <p>If we&#8217;re not completely all-in with this concept, then I understand why we would want it to be more subtle, non-intrusive of a workflow. (&#8220;dont make me choose what format before I post, I just want to post&#8221; kind of thing)</p> </div> </li> <li id="comment-7754" class="comment byuser comment-author-apeatling even depth-4"> <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541im_/http://1.gravatar.com/avatar/bb29d699b5cba218c313b61aa82249da?s=32&amp;d=http%3A%2F%2F1.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D32&amp;r=G" class="avatar avatar-32 photo" height="32" width="32"/> <h4> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://apeatling.com/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">Andy Peatling</a> <span class="meta"> <abbr title="2013-01-24T23:46:04Z">11:46 pm <em>on</em> January 24, 2013</abbr> <span class="actions"> <a class="thepermalink" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/01/22/post-formats-ui-update-121/#comment-7754" title="Permalink">Permalink</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fmake.wordpress.org%2Fcore%2F2013%2F01%2F22%2Fpost-formats-ui-update-121%2F">Log in to Reply</a> </span> </span> </h4> <div id="commentcontent-7754" class="commentcontent"><p>I agree with Beau about handing format switching.</p> <p>Originally on WordPress.com it was simple to switch between post formats while writing a post. The issue we found with this is that users would get confused between uploading a photo and the actual photo post format. They&#8217;d go to upload a photo to their standard post, switch formats to the photo format, upload, and then publish. They&#8217;d then lose the post content they had written on the previously selected format.</p> <p>We fixed this issue by first asking them to select a post format, but that&#8217;s tougher to change in core for reasons you&#8217;ve mentioned, it puts a decision in the way of posting that didn&#8217;t exist before.</p> <p>We also now tell them that they will lose their existing post content if they decide to select a different post format (if it hasn&#8217;t been saved as a draft). This helped a whole bunch, it dropped the number of tickets for this issue to near zero.</p> </div> </li> </ul> </li> <li id="comment-7712" class="comment byuser comment-author-helen bypostauthor odd alt depth-3"> <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541im_/http://0.gravatar.com/avatar/6506162ada6b700b151ad8a187f65842?s=32&amp;d=http%3A%2F%2F0.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D32&amp;r=G" class="avatar avatar-32 photo" height="32" width="32"/> <h4> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://helen.wordpress.com/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">Helen Hou-Sandi</a> <span class="meta"> <abbr title="2013-01-23T21:16:49Z">9:16 pm <em>on</em> January 23, 2013</abbr> <span class="actions"> <a class="thepermalink" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/01/22/post-formats-ui-update-121/#comment-7712" title="Permalink">Permalink</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fmake.wordpress.org%2Fcore%2F2013%2F01%2F22%2Fpost-formats-ui-update-121%2F">Log in to Reply</a> </span> </span> </h4> <div id="commentcontent-7712" class="commentcontent"><p>That is definitely a part of what we need to consider outside of the context of the add/edit screen. @beaulebens is also correct &#8211;

As <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/mentions/nacin/" class="mention">@nacin</a> put so well in <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://nacin.com/2011/01/27/on-standardized-post-formats/" rel="nofollow">his post</a>:</p> <blockquote><p>The idea behind the feature is this standardization and portability for a segment of bloggers. Many designers of themes used for microblogging wanted this ability to offer structured, well-defined content, beyond what could be done with categories and tags.</p></blockquote> <p>However, without anything actually standardized or structured in the admin, it&#8217;s ended up being completely up to the theme to determine both display AND data. Of course a theme will still be in control of the display, but given that formats are about standardization and portability, the feature itself is half-baked until we actually do something to the admin and corresponding data structure. As far as what&#8217;s available, I actually am not a huge fan of the whole opting in to a subset thing, but rest assured that a theme will continue to function like it does now if it doesn&#8217;t support a post format. After all, as it stands, a user could have created a post with a post format before switching to one that doesn&#8217;t support it, and nothing breaks.</p> </div> </li> </ul> </li> <li id="comment-7665" class="comment byuser comment-author-greenshady odd alt thread-even depth-1"> <img alt="" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541im_/http://1.gravatar.com/avatar/5c59d04ceb10b7ce586524221d010b76?s=32&amp;d=http%3A%2F%2F1.gravatar.com%2Favatar%2Fad516503a11cd5ca435acc9bb6523536%3Fs%3D32&amp;r=G" class="avatar avatar-32 photo" height="32" width="32"/> <h4> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://justintadlock.com/" rel="external nofollow" class="url">Justin Tadlock</a> <span class="meta"> <abbr title="2013-01-22T22:13:56Z">10:13 pm <em>on</em> January 22, 2013</abbr> <span class="actions"> <a class="thepermalink" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/01/22/post-formats-ui-update-121/#comment-7665" title="Permalink">Permalink</a> | <a rel="nofollow" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fmake.wordpress.org%2Fcore%2F2013%2F01%2F22%2Fpost-formats-ui-update-121%2F">Log in to Reply</a> </span> </span> </h4> <div id="commentcontent-7665" class="commentcontent"><p>I know it&#8217;s been mentioned before, but I have a PHP script for handling post formats on the front end:<br/> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/https://github.com/justintadlock/hybrid-core/blob/master/extensions/post-format-tools.php" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/justintadlock/hybrid-core/blob/master/extensions/post-format-tools.php</a></p> <p>If you need to see it in use in an actual theme, here&#8217;s one I&#8217;m working on:<br/> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/https://github.com/justintadlock/chun/tree/0.1" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/justintadlock/chun/tree/0.1</a></p> <p>All of this is based off how my users at Theme Hybrid are using post formats.

Otherwise feel free to come with questions/thoughts.</p> <p><strong>Nacins menu workflow concept</strong></p> <p>Nacin shared the following observations:</p> <ul> <li>The current UI is too advanced, and any workflow improvements should make it more simple for users.</li> <li>The most common use case is having one menu.</li> <li>The vast majority of menus are used in theme locations and widgets. We should tailor around those two use cases.</li> <li>The current workflow: A) create a menu from scratch, and then B) assign it to either a theme location, or a widget can lead to confusion, and is quite possibly overly complex.</li> </ul> <p>And proposed a rough concept along the lines of:</p> <ul> <li>With the custom menu widget, you&#8217;d: 1) add a custom menu widget to the sidebar 2) click a &#8220;Edit this menu&#8221; link/button which takes you to a screen where you&#8217;d edit that menu. This would likely take you to nav-menus.php?menu=that-menu-id. If the custom menu widget is newly added, it would take you to the &#8220;add new menu&#8221; screen.</li> <li>With theme locations, instead of selecting from a drop down of menus that you&#8217;ve created, each theme location would just have a link to edit that menu. You&#8217;d 1) Click the edit link under the theme location you&#8217;d like to edit, 2) Make changes to that pre-existing menu, 3) click save, and be done.</li> <li>We&#8217;d no longer need to display a list of menus you have, we&#8217;d just display a list of theme locations. Widget menus are represented in the widgets section, so they don&#8217;t need to be listed anywhere.</li> </ul> <p>Edge cases brought up (which we&#8217;d have to consider to make this work):</p> <ul> <li>While theme locations and widgets cover the vast majority of use cases for menus, you can use them elsewhere. wp_nav_menu() accepts ID, slug, or name of a menu. As such, we&#8217;d still need to be able to provide a way for users to add menus outside of theme locations and widgets. How would we display these additional menus?</li> <li>What happens to my predefined theme location menus when I switch themes to a theme which has a completely different set of theme locations? How would that work in the UI?</li> </ul> <p><strong>&#8220;Common links&#8221; meta box</strong></p> <p>We proposed &#8220;Common Links&#8221; meta box in <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/23119#comment:69" rel="nofollow">23119.14.diff</a>. Currently it defaults to showing a &#8220;home&#8221; link, and a &#8220;log in&#8221; link. Both of which are relatively hard to add to a menu. </p> <p>The idea is to:</p> <ul> <li>Move the &#8216;Home&#8217; link out of the Pages</li> <li>Make it easy to add a link to the login form (which many users have trouble with)</li> <li>Make these links easily discoverable</li> <li>Provide a filter for plugins to add/remove links to this &#8220;other&#8221; metabox</li> </ul> <p>I had hoped to settle on whether we should keep this new meta box, and if so, what we should call it. Both are still up in the air.</p> <p><strong>Things to think about before our next office hours</strong></p> <p>1) How can we make Nacins concept work?<br/> 2) Should we keep the new custom links meta box?

This way, advanced users can still add menus for the edge cases mentioned <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/01/21/menus-discussion-today/#comment-7649" rel="nofollow">above</a> (when added, they&#8217;ll also show up in the &#8220;Select a menu&#8221; area), but the majority of users will no longer have to deal with the complexity of adding a menu and then assigning it to a theme location.</li> <li>When you switch themes, any menu which was assigned to a default menu, would just become an unassigned menu. You could then click to edit the unassigned menu, and then assign it to a theme location in the new theme (through a drop down or something &#8211; perhaps at the bottom of the right column). Widget menus would just transfer over.</li> <li>Upon adding a custom menu widget, you&#8217;d see this:</li> </ul> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541/http://f.cl.ly/items/3E1Q0N401P2D3n0n3J1Q/nacins-concept-widgets.jpg" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126200541im_/http://f.cl.ly/items/3E1Q0N401P2D3n0n3J1Q/nacins-concept-widgets.jpg" width="500"/></a></p> <p>Or something similar, which would take you back to nav-menus.php.</p> <p>What do you think? Could this approach work? If not, why? </p> <p>p.s. Please don&#8217;t focus on the aesthetic of the design at this point. This is just a rough mockup.
