- Description
On a Tiki26 I searched for "payments" and this is the results displayed.
The feature payment is not yet activated (default).
Enabling the payment feature (Payment payment, features advanced) is the first step and a quite important step in the process (if not enabled, all the rest is not relevant)
However this preference is not the top result but buried somewhere in the middle of the results.This is one example and I guess there may be worst case.
My results should have displayed the Payment payment, features advanced checkbox at the top of the results.
Many too big "un-needed" warning are displayed and this added to the preference type (advanced in my screenshot) add confusion to the already dense Tiki preferences and admin options.I mean, what is good for a big warning about "Exchange rate for types of credit to use" if the user won't use "Tiki user credits" and even "Payment" ?
If there were one warning from time to time on a page it would look important and relevant.
As there are too many warning displayed, it is just noise and people tend to skip them.I'm not sure what should be the right solution, but I'd like something like a more discreet warning, the yellow warning icon - Requirements not met, and ONLY upon user action (mouseover, click, tooltip reveal, etc) to see the complete message. That way, the user is not submerged with warnings he doesn't need, and only when he need to see the verbose got the exact warning.
