Enkele aanvullende aanpassingen voor logo's en pictogrammen in de kerninstellingen

[nathank (Nathan Kershaw)]

Ik heb net een nieuwe site opgezet en liep tegen een paar problemen aan.

Ik ben erg blij met de nieuwe admin-instellingen (/admin/config/logo) - ze zijn een enorme verbetering en zien er visueel erg goed uit.

Suggestie 1

Dat de nieuwe term “Vierkant icoon” wordt gebruikt in plaats van large_icon in de tekstuitleg.

De oude naam is gewijzigd, maar dit is niet doorgevoerd in de tekst.

Suggestie 2

Dat er een apart Android-icoon is onder Mobiel, net zoals er is voor iOS.

Momenteel wordt het Vierkante Icoon gebruikt voor het Android-startscherm. Dit is van grote waarde!

Aangezien Android dit icoon behoorlijk bijsnijdt, is het vaak noodzakelijk om er flink wat witruimte omheen te hebben. Dit maakt dat icoon minder ideaal voor andere omstandigheden waarin het Vierkante Icoon wordt gebruikt.

Als alternatief zouden we het Manifest-icoon kunnen gebruiken om het Android-startschermicoon te genereren (in plaats van Vierkant Icoon).

Suggestie 3

Dat duidelijker wordt gemaakt wanneer een transparant icoon wordt gebruikt.

Dit is niet direct zichtbaar op de admin-pagina of duidelijk, tenzij men de lichte/donkere modus schakelt.

Suggestie 4

Dat het push_notifications_icon wordt toegevoegd aan de pagina (/admin/config/logo).

Thank you for the feedback Nathan, I’ve passed it on to the team. always appreciated!

Thanks for these suggestions, @nathank! These all sound worth exploring, so we’ll dig into this and see what will work well.

[nathank (Nathan Kershaw)]

Thanks Hugh!

I’ve just noticed that my second suggestion seems to be already implemented (or I got confused when posting above):

@nathank

Alternatively, we could have the Manifest icon used to generate the Android home screen icon (instead of Square Icon)

Certainly, when I just tested installing our PWA on Android, it surprised me by using the Manifest icon.

In the description for the fallback logo format when certain sizes aren’t provided, it’s written that large_icon will be used in nothing more specific is provided.

But what is large_icon? It’s not specified anywhere on the page which one it is.

I’m not sure what admin view or keyword result you’re viewing here, but if you go to All Site Settings → Branding you should see the Large icon setting in there:

[stephtara (Stephanie Booth)]

I’m in Appearance → Logo, it’s in the texts that appear in that admin screen.

Would be worth replacing the string name by “human language”?

I can see it when I go through Site Settings → Branding, and it has been “set” by something I uploaded in the Appearance → Logo screen, although that screen does not list it as such.

For me this is typically the kind of “little thing” that makes the admin interface confusing for the first-time Discourse user, by the way.

[ToddZ]

I hadn’t noticed before, but I also have the same file appearing as Large icon in one place and Square icon in another. Now I’m not sure if I uploaded them separately, or if one was derived from the other.

It is confusing that the contents of All Site Settings → Branding   and   Appearance → Logo overlap partially but aren’t named & described consistently. Maybe one section of Logo and Branding would be easier to manage.

I think Appearance → Logo was added when many settings were grouped into config pages and made directly accessible in the admin sidebar. So, I think this is kind of the place where it should be easier for admins to configure that because it’s a separate place compared to it being hidden in all site settings. But in the end, it just looks a little different, but you edit the same site settings. Most site settings are also part of one of the config pages.

I reported before that the hints on which size each logo should be differ between site settings and config page. This also makes it more confusing.

@nathank

That the new term “Square icon” be used instead of large_icon in the text explainers.

Oh, exactly what I stumbled upon here: Logo sizes: ref to large_icon unclear in texts

[stephtara (Stephanie Booth)]

@nathank actually pointed this out:

Suggestion 1

That the new term “Square icon” be used instead of large_icon in the text explainers.

The old name has been changed, but this hasn’t been followed through with in the text.
