484060 - Website: all designs should display when user selects "all" on homepage

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Mozilla Labs Graveyard :: Personas Plus, defect, P1)

Description

[Suneel]

users that click "all" in the Personas menu should be able to see all available personas. 

expected result: all available personas display. pagenation should be at the bottom of the page, just like 'Abstract --> All'

actual result: subset displays with no pagenation. user can not view all available personas.

I discussed this with Toby and it seems that its not an all/all category.It only displays 21 of the most popular/recent personas and currently this is as designed.

Toby,is my understanding correct?

Comment 2

[David Rolnitzky]

How hard would it be to make an all/all choice?

Comment 3

[Toby Elliott [:telliott]]

All/All could potentially involve thousands of items. That would require much more complex logic for the pagination (in which we might be dealing with 40 pages per thousand).

Comment 4

[Suneel]

do we run the risk that some personas will not be visible at all within the directory, whether through the all/all or through a category/all? it doesn't seem that all personas are currently visible. that is an issue because if a persona isn't discoverable, then it isn't given an equal opportunity to become popular.

also, all/all should include as many designs as possible without reworking the logic. Since abstract/all includes approx 150, it seems that all/all can include more designs.

All personas will appear under some category/All

all/all would pretty much have to include all by definition. It would be even more confusing if it only contained the last X

[Myk Melez [:myk] [@mykmelez]]

I'd love to have a page that listed all personas without pagination, since it's much easier to scan through one long page of personas than to navigate multiple pages of them when I want to browse all personas (even if it takes time to load that page).

It's also easier to find a specific persona by name on that page using Firefox's Find in Page text search (although for this use case a suitable workaround would be to make the site searchable).

I really like this suggestion for all the reasons that Myk mentions.  I think this would be super helpful as a user.

Awesome!

Note that towards the bottom of the page (also an issue with the other categories), there's a bunch of placeholder text in long columns.

The text is QA trying lots of different things and covered in Bug 483907

Comment 11

[Suneel]

looks good Toby. How many are in the All/All category? Are we setting a limit, per your comment:

"All/All could potentially involve thousands of items. That would require much
more complex logic for the pagination (in which we might be dealing with 40
pages per thousand)."

Comment 12

[Toby Elliott [:telliott]]

We are setting no limit, as requested above. It's all going onto one page.

Verified FIXED on https://sm-weave-proxy01.services.mozilla.com/store/gallery/All/All; all designs are indeed showing up in a flat view.
