 Description   

User feedback:

We have quite a number of sites, editors and assets in our Magnolia instances. We have asset folders for different sites, subfolders for subsites, etc. Our editors are complaining that life is hard when selecting an asset for use on a page: it takes a lot of clicks to get to the folder the asset is in, the interface doesn't remember the last used location and favorites are no solution either, because they are not available in the dialog that is used to choose an asset.

Remember the last used location as a user preference:

  • Provide a "Remember last location" (checkbox) option in the Preferences tab of the user profile dialog.
  • Enable the preference by default.

Record the last-used location:

  • Store the last-used location for each workspace: last page for website, last asset for dam etc.
  • For performance reasons you may want to store the last-used location only when an app or chooser dialog is closed, not every time the user changes a location while browsing the workspace.
  • Store last-used locations in the profiles workspace or another user-specific location so that they are individual and reflect each user's typical locations.

Help the user navigate to the last-used location:

  • Take the user to the last-used location in the workspace when
    • An app is launched.
    • A chooser dialog is opened.
  • If the last-used node has moved or has been deleted:
    • Ignore the last-used used location gracefully without errors.
    • Take the user to the default location, typically:
