I have uploaded a new version of the Winter prototype. This is a pretty significant update in terms of functionality and bugfixes, not the least of which include full support for history, contributions, and edit modes (though they do not save).
As always, you can play with it at http://unicorn.wmflabs.org/winter/
And provide feedback at: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Talk:Winter
(Please note that very soon I will Flow-Enable the Winter talk page).
Here’s your changelog:
=== New Features ===
* Added version identifier in sidebar.
* Significantly upgraded the prototype chassis: ** Added functionality to pass Page names to the url with ?page=$PAGENAME *** This allows the prototype to open new tabs and such. *** Other actions also follow suit (edit=, history=, contribs=) ** Added "History" functionality ** Added "Contributions" functionality ** Added "Edit" functionality *** Edit-mode controls are placeholders and not implemented. Also incomplete. *** Always loads source editor *** Links to article/user and discussion both appear here. *** Section edits also work *** DOES NOT SAVE. *** Changed "Edit Source" to "Edit Visually" in edit button menus because we're not faking up the visual editor (At this time) * Search box now works and does basic type-ahead lookups. ** Not entirely fully functional (e.g., does not auto-select) ** Some issues with clicking out of the search area not defaulting back to the page title ** No full search functionality (yet) * Additional sidebar toggles: ** Quiet Mode: (default) *** This applies several visual changes to the button ribbon (including border removal) *** Also slots the button ribbon right below the page title ** Thin Mode: (default) *** This reduces several borders to 1 pixel instead of 2. * Sidebar settings now are remembered between pages. ** Cookie clears with "clear saved data" * Personal bar now collapses when page-context tools pop into the header. ** Animation could use some work. * Changed avatar icon * Added link to notifications from user pulldown menu * Added small color highlight to internal tabs/buttons to indicate location * Attached several "This is not implemented" modal dialogs to various actions.
=== Bugfixes === * Clicking on internal hashlinks (like from the TOC) now target correctly given the fixed header. ** Also smooth scroll animation. * Page now scrolls to top when new page is loaded * Toolbox sections now open and close correctly * Found broken css rule that was applying a ginormous font size to all <a> tags. * Applied a max-height to the header table of contents and gave it scrollbars when the size of the TOC is larger than its content. * Page co-ordinates now go to the correct place * Language links now list the name of the language, not the name of the article ** This was a pain. This data needs to be in the API call. * "Discussion" link now becomes "article" link on discussion pages. * Redlinks now appear red.
== Known Issues ==
=== Current === * Contributions views: ** Timestamps don't sort right ** Comment fields are not correctly parsed from wikitext to html ** Size changes are not correctly reflected * System does not always handle 404 loads correctly (can fail silently, requiring a reload) * Internal hash URLs don't scroll correctly when loaded from external sources (this is a problem with the prototype specifically and will not appear in the production version) * Keyboard accellerators do not work. This is a problem of the prototype specifically and will not happen with the production version. * Loading from JSON breaks the nice little "section hover" stuff. * Categories are not displayed correctly, if at all. * Wrong link colors
=== Fixed/Addressed === ==== In Winter 0.4 ==== * Some buttons don't go away when they should * Redlinks do not work * Clicking on a section title in the table of contents forwards to the correct section, but the section header is covered by the search bar * Button size off-set issue appearing in Firefox (thanks, Sven!)
