Description Josef Moravec 2021-01-16 16:32:02 UTC

    
Comment 1 Jonathan Druart 2021-01-20 09:50:31 UTC
Why? Can you explain a bit please?
Comment 2 Josef Moravec 2021-01-20 10:07:27 UTC
The 'lang' field now holds information about language and display location. These two string are concatenated by '_'. So data in lang field are not atomic. This leads to not very flexible design...
Comment 3 Katrin Fischer 2021-02-06 18:57:23 UTC
I think Josef is right about the cleaner design and it will also make it a little nicer to add an 'all languages' like I think we really should have for the logo and such. It also makes reporting and querying on the data nicer.
Comment 4 Jonathan Druart 2021-03-11 09:29:42 UTC
Shouldn't we actually implement the same behaviour and UI than for the notice templates?

We would have a short list of the different block/content/news to edit, then a form with a list of the languages (vs the long ugly dropdown list we have now).
It will also add the ability to have a default value.
Comment 5 Martin Renvoize 2021-03-11 09:31:42 UTC
100% agree with that approach Jonathan :)
