Nice improvements. Personally I'm not a big fan of the two columns layout though. Also, should we do the same about the "template part creation modal" and reusable block as well? |
Agreed with Riad, these are nice improvements, but it's also a little much: We don't use the gray background for the tips anywhere else, the two columns means the left tip box and the content on the right doesn't really align in any meaningful way, and the added border at the bottom adds unnecessary separation. In other modals I've tried to remove text and borders to reduce as much as possible, here's a mockup of the modal list view: The point of removing all those borders and colors is to let what remain be that much more impactful. In this case, I really do appreciate the added help text and verbiage — it's definitely appropriate to add it. Is it possible to reduce this to a single paragraph of combined tip and help text? |
The balance is still off, and fundamentally I think there's just too much text. Is there any other context in which the tip can be shown? Should it just be in the panel itself? |
Please feel free to suggest refinements, copy is not my strongest suit. Maybe we can use the placeholder on the input to simplify?
For the best chance of users understanding, it should be as close to the template creation moment as possible. It's also worth noting that the Tip is essentially a placeholder until we support both custom (generic) and specific templates. At some point it will be replaced with a toggle that explains both options. So for now it can perhaps just go where that toggle will appear? It doesn't help that the Tip and the Helper Text are different sizes 🙈 The continuation feels strange to me as well. I appreciate the desire to reduce visual noise overall, but not at the cost of usability. To my eye this works much better: |
Thanks for taking a closer look :) The first sentence is a definite improvement! But the second one feels semantically incorrect to me. The helper text should provide context for the name input... the custom nature of the template isn't related to the name at all? Maybe I'm splitting hairs here... :D |
I think it's perfect as help-text — help text is like the proto tip. And in this case, I feel like the second sentence is providing context for the first sentence: why should I name this template "Full Width"? Oh I see, because I can apply it to any post or page. More importantly, the reduction and combination of the text, I believe makes it that much more likely that someone will actually read it. |
But what happens if the template is not custom? It would be weird for the text to dynamically update? I suppose we can cross that bridge when we get there... push it! :D |
But at the moment it always will be, right?
Right, I think this is one of those cases. I just have this feeling that once the added UI of custom plus bundled templates will need to be addressed, we will have a different set of ingredients to piece together, surfacing different solutions. Call it optimism :D Thanks, I'll push it. |
Let's land this as a small improvement! |
