 Description   

Tested:

On current 6.2.2-SNAPSHOT

Situation

The chosen workspace is not reflected in the location fragment.
Only  the  chosen path is.

Problem

This leads to quite some problems using the main too to develop: The JCR Browser App

  • Any time you log in again, you loose the workspace and must choose the workspace again.
  • Any time you refresh the app, you loose the workspace and must choose the workspace again.
  • Any time you have to close, open the app again, you loose the workspace and must choose the workspace again.

=> This happens while development a lot! Restarting tomcat, having to log out and in again, exceptions that get thrown forcing to log in again etc. It is really really annoying having always to choose the workspace again manually after a refresh of the window.

What you usually can do in any other app:

  • you log out & in in a different window
  • Have the app(s) open in different tabs
  • After re-login one just needs to refresh all other open apps in the tabs -> everything opens again where you were working/developing, except the JCR Browser app...

Default should be: 'website' (MGNLUI-6251)

AND (MGNLUI-6012): The chosen workspace MUST be a part of the location fragment -> main view representation.

Every single refresh of the app all is gone, when looking into another workspace! Suuuper anoying!

Hey Christian,

linking this to https://jira.magnolia-cms.com/browse/SUPPORT-12079 as it provides a workaround method for defaulting to website workspace again.

+1 for your idea to integrate workspace in location fragment

Cheers,

Chris

Hello,

We use the jcr browser to communicate a lot of informations to contributors (emails, notifications, etc.) to modify data in the JCR which is not possible from the edition. The links provided do not point to the correct workspace and contributors can no longer turn to the correct navigation.

We completely agree on the problem exposed in the description of the ticket.
We are migrating to version 6.2.18 and the issue is still relevant.

Regards,
Ezzeddine
