Saving templates - remind users to save #2906
Comments
There is a wider issue with varying saving procedures in DMP Roadmap. Saving answers to questions in plans leaves the plan open and fully expanded, even when answering questions from different sections. Saving changes to questions in a section of the template, collapses previous sections (so users are unaware of losing any changes they made to previous section). Dynamic (automatic saving) is available for plans but not for templates. |
Solutions proposed by users were:
|
This issue arose out of 2020 Usability Testing exercise. |
Agreed that we need a standardized way of saving across the site. The only place we auto-save is on the Plan. |
Other issues regarding saving procedure, which also arose out of the usability testing:
The behaviour should be the same, for example, sections, questions always collapse OR implement an editing vs viewing screen, to make it obvious to the user whether changes have been saved or not. |
Users also commented that perhaps it would be useful to have a Save All button (for when user edits several items on the page). Apparently, the Save button acts like a Save All but this is not obvious to the user. |
Please complete the following fields as applicable:
What version of the DMPRoadmap code are you running? (e.g. v2.2.0)
3.0.2
Expected behaviour:
Admin users should be reminded to save changes to templates. Some of them forget to do it and there is no warning mechanism in place to point this out.
Actual behaviour:
Users can move away from template (close window) without warning of unsaved changes.
Users can add question to a section without saving, then add new section to the template and save. It saves the new section and doesn't warn about unsaved changes (questions) to previous section.
Steps to reproduce:
Edit an existing test template to add questions and sections and test saving procedure.
