Feature request from hostep, posted on GitHub Nov 15, 2015
Hi
Using Magento 2.0.0-rc2.
I currently find it hard to edit a static block or cms page. We are now obligated to click at least twice on a tiny target, or even more then that if you make the mistake of clicking into a column which isn't the action column, due to the inline editing feature opening up.
I can see the usefulness of inline editing when clicking on a row, but now it's becoming a bit harder to actually edit the contents of the page/block.
I think in 80% of the cases when someone goes to the blocks/pages grid, it is to edit the contents of that block/page, not to change the title or the status or something like that.
Here are some ideas to make it a bit more practical while keeping the inline editing feature:
- Split the actions into multiple columns, so you can click directly on 'Edit'
- Clicking on a column in a row which you can't edit inline (ID, created/modified dates, ...) should open up the static block/page immediately
- Add a configuration option above the grid to enable/disable the inline editing feature
- ...
If anybody has other ideas to make this a less frustrating experience, please tune in
Thanks!
