The discussion revolves around making components and plugins more intuitive to interact with by enhancing clickable areas. alltiagocom suggests making the title and container of components clickable to access their content, proposing a layout change to accommodate the Learn More links. nat shares similar thoughts regarding plugins, noting that the current design can be confusing and inefficient. sam and awesomerobot discuss the issue of row highlighting causing confusion and the challenges of making entire rows clickable due to nesting links. alltiagocom argues for making titles clickable as it aligns with natural user behavior. awesomerobot agrees, and alltiagocom expresses enthusiasm for the change. awesomerobot confirms work is underway to make headings clickable.
I don’t know how that works when it comes to the container, because of the Learn More links, but if both can work together, great. If not, then at least the title is enough.
If the Learn more are added automatically by Discourse, not the component’s creator, then this could be done by adding another column just for the learn more, making the container clickable.
So the columns would be
Title | Learn more | Themes | Active Status | Edit | More
That way the container for Title could be clickable and the components that have Learn more would have that in their own column.
Something like this where the “Category Banners” container is clickable:
I have similar thoughts as you but for the list of installed plugins.
Somehow the highlighting of the row gives me the impression the thing is clickable. Back then when plugin settings was undergoing a revamp, I did raise this internally
The result was that the title is now not clickable but the Settings button is still there (the equivalent of Edit in your screenshot).
Personally I’d like the whole container to go into edit as well, but we’ll see how so this is a +1 from me.
Yeah the highlight on rows throughout admin doesn’t make a lot of sense, too many situations where we’d have to nest links and can’t make the entire row a clickable element anyway… removing is the best option…
אבל לא הגיוני לפחות להפוך את הכותרת ל"כחולה" (או כל צבע הדגשה שהאתר משתמש בו) ולהפוך אותה ללחיצה, מכיוון שזה משהו שאנשים עושים באופן טבעי? למרות שהעריכה (או הגדרות בתוספים) נמצאת שם, לחיצה על כותרות, שם משתמש וכו’, היא חלק מכל אינטראקציה באתר, כך שאני יכול לראות איך זה הגיוני גם בתוספים וברכיבים.
