Profile: Profile editing, WP iOS Beta, iPhone 6+

Testing profile editing with iOS app beta 6.0.0.20160208. Looks good. My only note is making About Me a textarea. Horizontally scrolling through a paragraph of text in a one line input field is awkward.

: Tap My Profile

: Tap About Me

: Tap into the input field

: A textarea would be more comfortable than a single line input. Go back and tap Display Name.

: Backspace over the last name.

: Tap Done

: Looks good. Visit wordpress.com/me to verify the change.

: Display Name reflects the change made in the app. Let’s change it back. Type Boren.

: Tap Save Profile Details

: Looks good. Switch back to the app and visit My Profile.

: Display Name reflects the changes made on the web.

: A quick peek at landscape view.

: About Me in landscape.

Editor, Video: HTTP error and blank image tag when uploading video, Macnchrome

Video upload is a mystifying pain.

: HTTP error when trying to upload a video to make/flow

: Inserting a video on a self-hosted site running the latest nightly results in a blank anchor

Related: #28367 Video upload failure is a dead end.

Changing my password, iPhone 6+

Starting on the front page, I visit my profile, change my password, and return to the front page.

4.3-beta2-33183

See #32589.

: Start on the front page. Tap the avatar in the toolbar.

: Tap Edit My Profile

: Scroll down.

: Tap Generate new password.

: What happens if I tap Go? Let’s find out. Tap Go.

: Form submitted. Profile updated. The iCloud keychain is offering to Update. This could be considered really quick and convenient, or startling. If you don’t use iCloud keychain and instead using 1Password or LastPass, this can catch you unawares. The clipboard did not have a copy of the generated password so I don’t have a way to update the password in 1Password. Anyhow, tap Update Password.

: The notice has the generic Profile updated message. Given the anxiety of changing a password, should a message specific to changing the password be shown? Maybe link to password recovery info. Tap the Home icon in the toolbar.

: Back where we started.

A visual survey of site icon terminology

Site icons recently landed in trunk using the terminology “Site icon”. We didn’t go with “favicon”. Favicon is an under-the-hood term, one with a lot of tedious history. Instead, we want to package title, tagline, and icon together as site identity. And, we already have some history with site/blog icon. Here’s a quick visual survey.

4.3 Beta uses “Site Icon”

wordpress.com uses “Blog Picture/Icon”

Jetpack uses Site Icon and references favicon.

Visual survey of list tables, iPhone 6+

For #32395.

4.3-beta1-33086. Single site. Logged in as an Administrator.

: In Response to looks odd here because the post has no title. I do a lot of no title image posts.

Changing site icon, 4.3-beta1-33054, iPhone 6+

Cropping is broken. For #16434.

: Tap Update Site Icon

: Tap the 3rd image. I want to make sure I’m not selecting something already cropped, which is hard to determine from the modal. I know after some trial and error that the first image is already cropped.

: Tap Set as Site Icon

: Busted

Macnchrome too.

Toolbar flow: Delete a post, Create and chain edit a post, iPhone 6+

Here are a couple of toolbar flow vizrecs I had laying around. These were done with 4.3 alpha, before the Customize icon landed in the toolbar.

Delete a post. Exercises Edit and Home in the toolbar.

: On a post permalink page. Tap the edit icon in the toolbar.

: Scroll down.

: Tap Move to Trash.

: Tap the Home icon in the toolbar.

: Tap Visit Site.

: Front page.

Create a post and then chain edit it. Exercises + and Edit in the toolbar. Uses View Post in the publish/save notices to link from back to front, rather than the toolbar.
