Re: [mezzanine-users] Admin navigation
I haven't been able to jump back on it. So feel free.

I think putting the selectors in the top bar is a great idea and using the
js to do it sounds like a simple enough solution.
Is anyone working on collapsible nav at this point? I'll take a stab at
it if not.

I think the lang and site selectors should probably go up into the
existing top nav on the right-hand side but to the left of the existing
buttons.
Easiest way to do that might be at the top of navigation.js where we are
already moving a bunch of elements around using jQuery rather than trying
to repurpose the layers of templates between django/grappelli/mezzanine.

So far my only css change is:
.dropdown-menu{

To make it so there is only a scrollbar if needed and so that the
sidebar spans the full page width. I also moved the language selector
dropdown to the top and made it an element in the ul.
Thoughts?

that'd be great!

I had my eye on this style of left-hand nav that the wordpress admin
uses for quite a while, and recently I saw a comment on reddit or some
site
describing Mezzanine's admin + grappelli as looking tired and old
compared
to newer CMSes and I couldn't help but agree. So the left-hand nav is an
attempt to improve things there. You might notice I also tried to
increase
font sizes everywhere, but I tried to do this in a way where I didn't
touch
anything in grappelli which was only partially successful. I think one
of
the main usability issues currently is the tiny fonts everywhere.

That's awesome - I think next we'd need to figure out how to have the
current section you're on open by default.

Re: [mezzanine-users] Admin navigation
I like where this is headed. I'm not a front-end pro either, but here are
a couple usability things I noticed:
#1: Having cursor: pointer on .dropdown-menu li is confusing since
clicking the list-item doesn't do anything. You have to click the anchors
to get any actions to fire. Can you add the click() action to the top
level list-item instead of the anchor? Or both?
#2: I always like to see some kind of chevron indicator next to expandable
items to give me an indication that clicking them will collapse/expand
something instead of take me to a new page.
This is looking great!

Ok, I think I've got that working as well,
http://codepen.io/joshcartme/full/wtkrF.
The js now checks through the navigation links to see if any of them are a
substring of the current path. If a match is found it opens the
corresponding section. I've simulated this by adding a link to the codepen
to the Content section, thus causing the content section to open.

This is the showstopper. Lastly and of less importance, there's no interactivity - hover states, active nav, nothing - the entire thing is static. Would be nice to have some basic aspects around that working. Further to this, we could have some more ux around it where only the currently viewed section (eg Content, Blog, Site, etc) is open, and the other sections open when clicked on - only one should be open at any time perhaps? We could also use some toggle buttons, for showing/hiding the menu (default should be open, perhaps only if the screen is wide), and separately, toggling the sections being collapsed or expanded. There's a lot of work to be done here and I don't really have the front-end skill nor the time available right now to see it through. Who can help out?
