2.4.0 To-do List

The table below lists the bug fixed for 2.4.0

Package/Topic What Who State
Accessibility A few improvements, see forums for details emmar DONE
Accessibility Color of the class portal doesn't pass the luminosity contrast test (ratio = 3:1, should be 5:1 for normal text) daveb FIXED
new-portal set default layout to theme-zen when a new page is added to a portal donb FIXED
 theme-selva fix CSS donb

FIXED (somewhat)

I fixed the basic portal layout and decoration stuff, nothing else.  If someone else cares about selva, please other css issues as you find them
forums message-view expand/collapse should toggle (but it's done in javascript so the page doesn't know what the current state is) or we should just delete the options as we did in 2.3.  Also the print button should disappear - print should be handled by linking the package's print.css file using media="print", with printing then handled by the browse as it is meant to be in this modern era. vguerra The proposed fix was incomplete (only one cookie value for all threads), feature will be removed from 2.4.  Victor can fix it in HEAD for a future release if he wishes to.
forums doesn't work for oracle donb FIXED
forums forums: the "new" tag in the forums portlet lasts longer than the "bold" mark of new messages in the forum page (forum-view) vguerra FIXED
forums when posting a message ( without previewing it ) part of the screen gets black  vguerra

xinha problem (core)
forums testing upgrade regarding the "readinginfo" new feature

breadcrumbs

Usability:

  • breadcrumbs should start from dotLRN root node instead of the main site.
  • dotlrn root node should be labelled as "Home".
  • The portal page name should appear in the breadcrumbs
  • last element of the breadcrumbs should match the title of the page
 emmar DONE
