763696 - Add functional UI for region/language selection

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 783423

(Marketplace Graveyard :: General, defect, P1)

Description

[Wil Clouser [:clouserw]]

We store our region and language selections in cookies (after doing some UA detection at first). This bug is about implementing UI for the user in the footer that lets them override those choices. You can see an example of the UI here: https://bug761906.bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=630720 That UI is still under construction (Sawyer and Maria are your contacts). I know we've talked about this in person though, so I'm going to go ahead and file this.

This was alluded to in the footer of the detail page (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=630720).

Open questions:

- What does it look like when I select the (United States) globe?
- What does it say when I'm in the country-agnostic, Worldwide store?
- Do we have the user change the country from a separate page/modal (à la http://cl.ly/0H3G261X2p313d423e0f and http://cl.ly/0t130u2m0w0E0I1M1c1a)?
- Or do we hide the language/country selections behind a pref on the Account Settings (http://cl.ly/1E3N370H1G3r0X1h0P2w) page?

This should work like a dropdown, just like selecting a language. We'll have to get back to you on exact styling, but for now just assume a dropdown.

Not sure, seems like a Justin-type decision to me :)

Yes, (the latter) let's have the language/region selections live under the account page. This is the plan for mobile as well.

An incomplete version of this is done so that you can change country stores.

    See the header:

    See the footer:

On the gaia branch (in the new designs) I'm going to add the ability to change country stores from the Settings button: http://cl.ly/2S3G3h0S3M310p0e3T3G

We have the dropdown on desktop, but Davor's adding this to the Settings page for mobile (gaia-ui branch).

What UI is it that is wanted here?

It's been provided in the designs for the Settings page. Thanks!

This bug is for exposing the field. It's not even visible. Bug 783423 is because you've removed a bunch of fields. Just don't forget it with the other bug.
