Please see viewtopic.php?p=14932#p14932 for an important update!
Hi everybody, I'm excited to announce that a couple months ago I joined the CouchCMS team!
My first major contribution to this already great software will be a redesign of the admin panel. I will work to improve the usability of the admin interface on all types of devices and screen sizes.
Some of the features and changes include:
I will also be migrating the admin JavaScript from MooTools to jQuery.
I would like your feedback on this redesign and any other aspect of the admin panel that you think can be improved. Nevertheless, for the purposes of this thread please leave discussions of feature requests for the appropriate forum section.
Hi everybody, I'm excited to announce that a couple months ago I joined the CouchCMS team!
My first major contribution to this already great software will be a redesign of the admin panel. I will work to improve the usability of the admin interface on all types of devices and screen sizes.
Some of the features and changes include:
- fluid responsive layout
- everything is vector: CSS, SVG, @font-face (High-DPI/Retina compatibility)
- fixed full-height sidebar (sticks to the left side of your window) - degrades to single column for smaller viewports
- sidebar is collapsible if you want additional space
- tabs for quicker navigation and more efficient grouping of editable regions
- keyboard shortcuts for common actions:
- ?: Show keyboard shortcuts
- Ctrl/Cmd + S: Save changes
- C + `: Toggle sidebar/menu
- C + N: Add new entry (page/folder/user)
- C + V: View entry (page/comment/draft)
- C + .: Go to next page (if available)
- C + ,: Go to previous page (if available)
- C + Tab: Switch to next tab (will loop around)
- C + Shift + Tab: Switch to previous tab (will loop around)
- customizable template font icons (Font Awesome)
- independent collapsible groups with a definable starting state
- NicEdit appearance revamped
- improved list view select functionality
- un-saved content warning
- template search
- additional bulk actions
- helpful tooltips
- view per page (limit) dropdown
I will also be migrating the admin JavaScript from MooTools to jQuery.
