[Koha-devel] [CROSS-POST] does the language sw[itcher really need that much screen real estate?

[Marcel de Rooy]

I like the new position for Languages too.

But it gets kind of crowdy on that top bar (when the user is logged in and has a longer name..)

Imo Languages has more rights to be there than e.g. Search history.

Could we move Search history now to the bar with Advanced Search and Authority Search?

Could we also combine "Welcome, Marcel.."  and Logout ? Only Show the name and provide a dropdown with User options and Logout ?

Hi Indranil ++

Nice improvement.

Thank you.

There is now a new patch which positions the lang chooser at the
masthead. Users' are being requested to offer their inputs whether:

a) we stick to the way it is currently (at the bottom of the page and
with UX issues unless the patch from 11057 is applied)

(Reference - http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=11057)

OR

b) we switch to the new position on the masthead using the patch from 14252?

(Reference - http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=14252)
