Issue status update for http://drupal.org/node/28301 Post a follow up: http://drupal.org/project/comments/add/28301 Project: Drupal Version: cvs Component: user.module Category: feature requests Priority: normal Assigned to: jjeff Reported by: jjeff Updated by: jjeff Status: patch (ready to be committed) Thank you Moshe! jjeff Previous comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fri, 05 Aug 2005 19:59:52 +0000 : jjeff Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/admin.access.hover.help.patch (799 bytes) Here's a patch that adds a 'title' tag to all of the checkboxes in the admin/access grid. When you roll over the checkboxes in most browsers a tool-tip box will pop up with information about what each checkbox is. Examples: "anonymous user : edit own blog" "authenticated user : post comments" "admin : administer filters" On a site with many roles and many modules, it becomes very easy to scroll away from the table headers, so this is essential for figuring out what you're clicking. It doesn't solve all of the admin/access page usability problems, but it does make the page a lot more usable. Little patch. Big help. -Jeff ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sun, 07 Aug 2005 15:34:35 +0000 : Dries Coding style needs work (incorrect use of spaces). Shouldn't these strings be translatable? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sun, 07 Aug 2005 17:41:21 +0000 : jjeff Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/admin.access.hover.help.v2.patch (804 bytes) This should be better. By 'incorrect use of spaces', do you mean spacing around the array keys and values? I've fixed that and the $perm (permission) value now gets translated. Role names aren't translated elsewhere on the admin/access page, so I've left $name (role name) untranslated. -Jeff ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fri, 09 Sep 2005 16:09:37 +0000 : jjeff Anyone want to review my code? Thanks, Jeff ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fri, 09 Sep 2005 16:25:49 +0000 : m3avrck Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/user.module_6.patch (803 bytes) Rerolled patch against current HEAD. Looks good to me and seems to be pretty useful :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fri, 09 Sep 2005 17:35:58 +0000 : Bèr Kessels Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/user.module_6_0.patch (805 bytes) changed spaces.
