Plugin List - does Text Area 'Display Limit (List)' work?

posts: 8633 Israel

Hi,

I think Jonny (a developer) is right.

But it raise a user-experience (non-developer) issue that is coming back time after time.
Normal users (sorry Jonny ?) don’t see what you see or the logic you see it.

When they set (way before they start with List) they usually expect to see the things the way they have set them (300char max, use real name, use translations, etc).

Now I’m not sure how to answer that UX problem.
"A" solution would be to use trackerrender by default but that’s quite radical...
Another solution would be to "make" people use the GUI and there add relevant warning.
Or may be, on save a dialog displaying some warning (be aware that; rebuilt index, format of things, etc)

Adding more warning in the doc may be not enough (and certainly not user-friendly).
