Changing it to "visible on frontpage" would be more user friendly. It is what the user expects to see. The word "promote" is as said confusing. Carl McDade Bèr Kessels wrote:
Hello.
Currently we use the standard flag called "promote to frontpage". This is only correct for those cases where /node is the frontpage. For all other cases, thes flag is obsolete, if not completely wrong.
I suggest the folloiwing: We stop calling /node frontpage. We call /node "headlines", in documentation and help text. By default the headlines are set to frontpage (we have that now) We rename the flag " promote" to "add to healines", or even simply "is headline"
Pro This will improve useability for all these ppl that do not use /node as frontpage. It will make our frontpage system clearer, for /node (headlines) becomes just another frontpage option.
Con: Users who are used to the current system might get confused when they do not find the "promote to frontpage flag" anymore. Regards, Bèr
