- Description
If a package is missing the help/warning information displays a link to the external missing package repository.
It is important to note that we have already a similar mechanism when looking to a page (not the admin control panels) that display a message for admins (I hope for admins only ?)
At http://bsfez-11581-7999.show2.tikiwiki.org/tiki-admin.php?page=fgal&cookietab=6&highlight=feature_docs, enable "Use PDF.js".It will display an alert (red background):
The first link "Missing tiki package :" with a link to : tiki-admin.php?page=packages
Then "npm-asset/pdfjs-dist-viewer-min" with a link to :https://asset-packagist.org/package/npm-asset/pdfjs-dist-viewer-min
It should display:
"A Tiki package is missing: Install mpdf/mpdf"
"Install mpdf/mpdf" should be a link to : tiki-admin.php?page=packages1. Tells the user of a problem
2. Explain what is the problem
3. Suggest the user a way to solve the issue
4. Give the user the direction/action to solve the issueThat's the way a missing package should handled, anywhere.
I added "anywhere" because it seems we have different behaviours.
IE: Go to http://bsfez-11581-7999.show2.tikiwiki.org/tiki-admin.php?page=print
For the "PDF from URL" dropdown, select mPDF. The "PDF Orientation" error will show
"Missing tiki package: mpdf/mpdf" with parts with the same link. (not needed)- Solution
When a package is missing the warning should say (everywhere):
"A Tiki package is missing: Install mpdf/mpdf" (change mpdf/mpdf with the relevant missing package name, tag)
"Install mpdf/mpdf" should be a link to : tiki-admin.php?page=packages- Importance
