In our IRC discussion today we talked about the responsive admin implementation for this release. We’re going to first focus on large-screen implementation, and then if we have time before freeze, work on small screen/mobile. We need to start comps for the large-screen implementation and post on this thread for discussion. This comping-period needs to happen before WCSF (August 13th) so we will not get behind. You can use pagelayers to make a PSD & move things around. Think: constraining widths, columnizing widgets, etc. Lets post up and discuss!!!

ps. the tracTrac Trac is the place where contributors create issues for bugs or feature requests much like GitHub.https://core.trac.wordpress.org/. ticket for this is #18198 but we’re going to discuss details here first.

At the dev day in Reno, Mitcho worked on a patch for active/inactive states on the buttons on the WPMenus screen. Basically, it makes the button to add to menu inactive unless you’ve selected something to add. nice.

I’ve been working on some blue admin tweaks. I ported over the categoryCategory The 'category' taxonomy lets you group posts / content together that share a common bond. Categories are pre-defined and broad ranging. tab color attributes to the colors files, and have been working on changing it from the default grey over to blue.

Before: http://cl.ly/2u1F230R3J382I2R2d2R

After 1: http://www.cl.ly/163U2O1S1H3c1F1o2Z3Y
– I think I like it better without a background color – but we would need to reflect that on grey as well?

After 2: http://www.cl.ly/00323S403w3S3b11403f
– subtle blue background color

After3: http://www.cl.ly/0v0s2l1V471K2z2Z2Y1v
– too dark

Thoughts?

In the new year we’ve had some people who haven’t been able to make our current IRC chat time. ( Tuesdays @ 19:00 UTC ) How does everyone feel about a time change? When would you best be available? Please comment with your thoughts/what time is best for you. I propose we make it an hour earlier if that works for everyone.

Blue Theme Refresh

Unfortunately, I might only catch the end of today’s meeting (if I’m lucky).. So, here are some more blue revisionsRevisions The WordPress revisions system stores a record of each saved draft or published update. The revision system allows you to see what changes were made in each revision by dragging a slider (or using the Next/Previous buttons). The display indicates what has changed in each revision. based upon our conversation the other week. Added in the sandy/tan secondary color. Let me know what you think.

Dashboard: http://cl.ly/e4c9b5955568ef0bd465
note: the tan outlines/screen options/tanner background – Admin Menu Grey Active state/arrow per JohnONolan – also, the little icons have a slightly sandier tint.

Dashboard with Screen Options Open: http://cl.ly/f0307cb94b988051a1a5
note: the up arrow is not changed: this is overwritten by the admin. See Nacin’s previous post about sprites for the fix.

Posts: http://cl.ly/79ebc57c9647d56ce2e8
note: the tan table alternate background

Admin Menu with sandy hover-state: http://cl.ly/0552496f096c945ae1a3


ps. I’m running trunk therefore the screen shots do not have Lucida Grande in them but Verdana.
