Drupal Usability Meeting 2023-04-14

i would like to add 📌 Add image preload option to help boost actual and perceived performance Needs work to the list which was brought up on slack by @smustgrave

The group is actively tracking progress on:

• 🌱 [meta] Reorganize Block items in the administration menu Active

Issues brought forward from the previous meeting:

• ✨ [Meta] Appearance page is too long and confusing Active
• 📌 [PP-3] Figure out what to do with the install/uninstall modules page Postponed with notes:
  • #3307567: Drupal Usability Meeting 2022-09-09 → : started discussing the proposed options but ran out of time, possibly splitting the confirm form into its own issue (we may want to look at that for both modules and themes, standard pattern, consider implications of project browser), worth considering parity with Drush (and other extension/package managers).
  • #3310096: Drupal Usability Meeting 2022-09-23 → : @simohell presented the various proposals, but we again ran out of time to have a in-depth discussion, using the drop-button pattern on the module page for the existing links + Uninstall was suggested.
• 🐛 Placement of batch progress messages Active with notes:
  • #3322499: Drupal Usability Meeting 2022-11-25 → : We started looking at the issue but ran out of time.
• ✨ Allow media items to be edited in a modal when using the field widget Postponed with notes:
  • @AaronMcHale: Issue could use some guidance.
    In comment #109 the issue was marked as postponed for needing input from UX, accessibility and media initiative. Apparently there are some outstanding UX/accessibility questions (but I'm not sure what they are). This was echoed in comment #111.
    Comment #144 is asking what is needed to move the issue along (the postponed state seems to be causing some delays/confusion as to how to proceed).
    Perhaps we can at least take a look at what the issue is doing and provide some recommendations/guidance on how it could be implemented.
• ✨ Allow blocks to be configured to show/hide on 200/403/404 response pages Fixed : see comment #3335028-6: Drupal Usability Meeting 2023-01-27 → for more details on what a review should address.
• 🐛 Password suggestions are hidden from screenreaders Active
• 🌱 [Policy] Remove tour module from core Fixed with notes:
  • @xjm tagged for review and sign off from the usability group before it can go ahead, noting that Tour is seen as a usability module and the core committers were not able to reach a consensus.
• 📌 Make core's structure descriptions more consistent Closed: won't fix
• 📌 Creating a new workspace should also switch to it Needs work
• 📌 Content translation overview should add destination query parameter Needs work raised in Slack by @smustgrave

🐛 Wrong message on cancelling account with e-mail confirmation request Needs work was reviewed at #3244123: Drupal Usability Meeting 2021-10-22 → and we made a recommendation (in comment #13), but there was a good point made in comment #17 so in #18 I tagged it again for review.

It would be good to discuss whether in 📌 Rename Custom Block terminology in the admin UI Fixed we should use "Block type" or "Block content type", and make a recommendation, there's pros and cons to both.

Added the three issues that got discussed today to the issue summary

Comment added to 📌 Rename Custom Block terminology in the admin UI Fixed

Adding 📌 Remove "Please" from the codebase Fixed that was tagged for review by @quietone and also brought up as a suggestion in one of benjis call for issues for next weeks meeting on slack.

benjifisher → credited paulocs → .

A few days ago, I added a rough transcript and a link to the recording.

Previously, we added links to the issues we discussed.

We already left a comment on 📌 Rename Custom Block terminology in the admin UI Fixed , and I think that is the only issue we discussed at length.

I am adding issue credits, and I think I can now close this issue.

Automatically closed - issue fixed for 2 weeks with no activity.
