Meta bug for implementing new interface for the add-ons manager. This requires platform-specific graphics as well as new interactions and behaviors for add-ons. The new add-ons manager interface will consist primarily of variations on three separate interfaces: 1. List View - Each category of add-ons (except Themes/Backgrounds) displays at its top level a list of all the add-ons it contains - Information included in each entry is: * Add-on name * Add-on icon * Add-on author (links to AMO profile) * Add-on description (curtailed after one line) * Date add-on was last updated - Buttons included in each entry are: * Disable/enable toggle button * Preferences link (launches in separate window) * "More" link (launches Detail View of add-on) - Clicking an add-on selects that entry; multi-select is enabled - Selected add-ons display an X in the top right corner for deletion - Notifications for an add-on appear above the add-on's title in its entry - Searching for a specific add-on produces a variation on List View, with the added option to search for add-ons available to download as well as ones which are currently installed 2. Themes and Backgrounds View - Themes are displayed first, backgrounds second - both groups are collapsible - Each entry includes: * Add-on name * Add-on preview * Add-on author (links to AMO profile) - Clicking an add-on selects that entry; multi-select is enabled - When an add-on is selected, it displays: * An X in the top right corner for deletion * A "more" link (launches Detail View of add-on) * A link to wear that add-on - If the user has only installed backgrounds, no themes display (and vice versa) 3. Detail View (Bug 562902) - Gives further information about a single add-on - Displays: * Add-on name * Add-on author (links to AMO profile) * Full add-on description * A contribution link if the author has opted into donations * Specific information such as compatibility, rating, last updated * Allows the user to switch between manual and automatic updates

(In reply to comment #1) > - Selected add-ons display an X in the top right corner for deletion Hmm, this is almost completely undiscoverable, I'm sure not finding that will confuse a good number of users. Also, this is not visible in your mockups. > 3. Detail View (Bug 562902) > * Add-on name Please also include the version here, in your mockups, that's completely missing from the detail view. Other than those two things, the mockups look pretty good though, I like them, cool stuff!

Robert, thanks for the feedback - I've responded to your comment on bug 586066#c3 in order to separate design discussion from the implementation discussion that will happen here

Meant to close this some time ago. This bug was tracking a list of things we wanted to accomplish with the redesign. The redesign is effectively complete so there is no longer a need for this tracking bug.
