- Description
Profile user experience can be improved.
While effort should continue to improve existing profiles, shouldn't it make sense to focus first on easy steps that can be done:
- Is Profiles the right word to name ? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Profile), it means so many things...
May be there is not a single word for this. May be we should use word that doesn’t mean anything (Tikifigurator
) so no confusion.
- tiki-admin.php?page=profiles should be revamped
+- Help text could be added to explain what, how, why... (may be reuse the remark box - I can’t find it useful for new user - links didn’t work for me in trunk local)
- We could display only one version of the profile, the one that work with the running Tiki (and remove anything about 3x, 4x, 5x, etc)
- We could display already a list of profile by default (last 10 updated) (not the mini profile); it will help to understand what this does
- Remove or modify the "Profile type" selector (confusing)
- The profile repository dropdown could be moved under the advanced tab (till there are more repository)
- When applying a profile
- Once a profile is selected and ready to be applied we shouldn’t see (again) other profiles but only the one selected (so we have more room to see the profile content: setting, instructions, etc)
- The table where is displayed the profile information should be adapted to the size of it’s content (scroll, content is hidden)
- Add some screen shot (corresponding to the version of the Tiki running)
- Once a profile is selected and ready to be applied we shouldn’t see (again) other profiles but only the one selected (so we have more room to see the profile content: setting, instructions, etc)
- After a profile is applied
- Hide the long list of "changes has been applied" (viewable on click) - (if someone want to see it he can but we don’t need to put that long and scary list)
- A Success message should be seen first ;)
- The result should be mordernized and help doc should guide better. This screen show the result and it is not the nicest design we can expect with Tiki today and user doesn’t have any guidance about what to do from here.
- Workaround
Profiles Wizard solves many of those issues, even if it also needs some revamp, in the same line of your wish report.

- Browse Directory is broken
- Wiki argument variables, Documentation; The help tools of Tiki for Wiki argument variables redirect to the wrong page
- Plugin List, Wiki Argument Variables; Admin should see a warning when the Wiki Argument Variables is not enabled and he tries to use it.
- General, Navigation; Endless loop, too much redirect error, if a wiki page is the value of the option
- Tiki tag ~ hs ~ is lost on wiki page duplication
