 Description   

Since we've fixed MGNLUI-2295 (no more than 9 apps per app group), we can re-arrange some of the existing apps and move them to groups, which makes more sense.

I suggest to:

  • move from Dev to Tools:
    • "Backup"
    • "Activation tools" (App should use the "Publish" icon, but I guess this is done later, together with the merging of the two "Activation" tools)
    • "Activation monitor"
    • maybe: "Repository tools". Is this a tool regular admins would use? Plz discuss.
  • move from Tools to Dev:
    • "Config info"
  • rearrange apps in Tools:
    • "JCR", "Log viewer", "Permissions", "Activation tools", "Cache tools", "Mail tools", "Repository tools", "About Magnolia"
    • (continuing on new line) "Backup", "Export", "Import", "Activation monitor"
  • rearrange apps in Dev:
    • "Messages", "JCR queries", "Groovy", "Dev tools", "Sample", "Config info"

I've tried to find an order that makes sense, with more important apps covering the special places like beginning and end of a line, but it remains a bit arbitrary. We could also decide to just use special places for "JCR" and "About", which are often used, then order the rest alphabetically, i.e.

For Tools:

    • "JCR", "Activation tools", "Cache tools", "Log viewer", "Mail tools", "Permissions", "Repository tools", "About Magnolia" (I'd leave the second line to show "Backup" and "Config info" in special places)

For Dev:

    • "Messages", "Dev tools", "Groovy", "JCR queries", "Sample", "Config info"

See linked tickets for implementation.

For 5.2.1 Only add the New apps to the proper groups - dont take the time to move the other apps.
Move these apps from the Dev group to the Tools group:
Activation Tools and Activation Monitor
Backup
Repository Tools
