Here's some issues which I see, as a starter for discussion, and hopefully later I'll be able to make some quick wireframes to suggest improvements and so everyone can have something to get hating.

The overarching issue is that the UI seems confused when it comes to committing the action you've just taken, for example:

 * To scale an image, you commit the action with a button labelled ""Scale"".
 * To commit a crop you have to click the crop icon button, which looks like a tool selection button (ala Photoshop) rather than something which commits the change.
 * The Save button is disabled most of the time, for reasons which are unclear, but it's not super obviously styled as disabled.

Separately from the problems of committing actions, the ""Apply changes to"" panel is kind of stuck down to the right and it's not clear at which points it's having an effect.

There are no messages back to the user to confirm whether actions have or haven't been taken.

I've just uploaded a new theme to my theme directory and I now want to activate it on a site. I head to the Appearance › Themes menu for that site and, whoops, I forgot to activate it on the network first. Now I need to:

1. Click my name in the header
2. Click Network Admin in the dropdown menu
3. Click Sites
4. Find the site and click Edit
5. Click Themes

From there I can enable the theme.

We're not done yet though. We need to traverse a minimum of two screens to get back to the Themes menu of the site (even more if the admin bar isn't enabled) in order to activate it.

Two things would make this process easier:

1. A link from the Themes screen to the Themes tab of the site in network admin, so five clicks become one.
2. The ability to activate a theme from the Themes tab of the site in network admin.

Needs UI Feedback	18402	Confused page ordering if filter drops parent pages	nacin	Administration	3.2.1	normal	normal	3.6	defect (bug)	reviewing	ui-feedback	2011-08-14T15:34:07Z	2013-05-05T05:01:40Z	"= Problem =
In Wordpress's page management section, the page ordering is confused if a page filter drops a page parent.

Originally, I experienced this with the User Access Manager Plugin:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-access-manager/
This plugin only shows allowed pages to the user.


= Example =
{{{
Page A
- Page A1
-- Page A1.1
-- Page A1.2
}}}

By dropping page A, the ordering becomes for example:

{{{
-- Page A1.1: Parent Page is Page A1
-- Page A1.2: Parent Page is Page A1
- Page A1: Parent Page is A
}}}

But should become:

{{{
Page A1: Parent Page is A
-- Page A1.1
-- Page A1.2
}}}

= Solution =
The confusion results from the function `_display_rows_hierarchical`
in `wp-admin/includes/class-wp-posts-list-table.php` which only adds pages to $top_level_pages whose parent is 0 – the wrong assumption here.

By adding pages to $top_level_pages whose parent is either 0 or doesn't exist in $pages we get a usable order:
So I added to the above-mentioned file:

{{{
#!php
function is_parent_in_pages( $parent, $pages ) {    
    foreach ( $pages as $page ) {
        if ( $page->ID == $parent ) return true;
    }
    return false;
}  
}}}

and changed `_display_rows_hierarchical`
from

{{{
#!php
if ( 0 == $page->post_parent )
    $top_level_pages[] = $page;
else 
    $children_pages[ $page->post_parent ][] = $page;
}}}

to

{{{
#!php
if ( 0 == $page->post_parent || !$this->is_parent_in_pages( $page->post_parent, $pages ))
    $top_level_pages[] = $page;
else
    $children_pages[ $page->post_parent ][] = $page;
}}}


And finally - in order to remove the leading dash of $top_level_pages - I removed
the $level++ in function `single_row` (same file) below ""`case 'title':`""


Small change, better user experience :)

Needs UI Feedback	23295	Improved login expiration warning		Autosave		normal	normal	3.6	task (blessed)	new	ui-feedback	2013-01-25T22:49:45Z	2013-05-16T03:47:09Z	"The goal here is to improve the user experience when your login has / will expire, as discussed in [http://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/01/07/wordpress-3-6-autosave-and-post-locking/ WordPress 3.6: Autosave and Post Locking] and the [http://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/01/25/agenda-for-todays-autosave-and-post-locking-team/ autosave and post locking team meeting in IRC].

The suggested tactic is to integrate the [https://github.com/Penske-Media-Corp/pmc-post-savior/ PMC Post Savior] plugin into core.  That part should be pretty straightforward.

I think 3 valuable enhancements that are on the plugin's roadmap, but not yet complete would be:
* Alert properly on failed requests and lost connectivity.  If my internet connection has gone down and I'm still working, I should be alerted that I'm ""Working offline"" and my changes aren't being automatically saved.  I don't think this should be a blocking UI, but it should be obvious.
* Block publish/save until login has been verified.  Polling duration can be decreased (or maybe even done away with entirely) if we block the Publish/Save/etc actions until we've verified the user's cookie.
* Pre-emptive notification.  When approaching the user's login cookie expiration time, say 1 hour before, display a message and allow the user to extend their login.  For example, how banking sites notify you when you've been inactive too long and they're about to log you out."	mintindeed

The above modal provides no option for dismissing the modal and viewing the editing screen. Preferably there would be a read-only mode of the editing screen, which disabled the buttons in the publish metabox.

There isn't a rule or guideline whether a plugin should make a tab or link under settings or if it even has to do any of the above. We all agreed that all plugins should have a link under settings. If the plugin enhances a different part of the site, the settings page could just tell you where the plugin feature is located. 

We also agreed that themes should put features like a static front page under customize like most already do, though I heard Responsive doesn't. I was told it puts static front page under settings. If it is a theme feature, then logically you should be able to at least find a link to where the features are under themes. 

Implementing general rules for plugins and themes would make !WordPress easier to use. Does anyone else agree?

For example, on Page Edit, revisions have a hardcoded date format of `'j F, Y @ G:i'` and ajax autosaves use `'g:i:s a'` to show the ""Draft Saved at"" time (of note is the 24 hour vs 12 hour time). The ""Last Edited By _ on _"" time ''does'' properly use the time & date format options.

I have included a patch for the two examples above (comments/critiques welcomed), but there were a few others I noticed that may be somewhat more involved to fix. These include:
- Dates shown in the ""Date"" column of list tables (both the displayed and title text)
- ""Published on:"" date/time for pages (this may be tricky since editing the published time uses a 24-hour time format)

The ""edit"" page URLs are '''/wp-admin/network/site-''settingsName''.php?id=''id''''' where ''settingsName'' is '''info''', '''users''', '''themes''', or '''settings'''. The Dashboard URL is '''/''siteName''/wp-admin/''' where ''siteName'' is, I think?, the site's '''Path''' field as shown in '''/wp-admin/network/site-info.php?id=''id''''' but without the leading and trailing slashes.

The problem is if I am in the ""edit"" pages and want to go to the site's dashboard, I have to click on '''Sites''', then hunt down the site in the list, then click '''Dashboard''' while hovering the mouse over the site's row. I have a similarly convoluted process to get from a Dashboard to the ""edit"" pages.

Does this need to be so complicated? It would be nice for network admins to see links on every Dashboard or ""edit"" page that allows the user to go back and forth between the two easily.

This patch is made to add responsive layout to the admin bar. It comes from the ""Responsive adminbar"" plugin (http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/responsive-adminbar, thanks to skodnik).

Basically, I added some html tags to some menu items in the admin bar (using the ab-icon / ab-label combo) in order to handle the new icons I added to the ""admin-bar-sprite.png"".

I took the images straight from the plugin but some states are missing or some images should be changed as they are not appropriate (a ""heart"" for the network seems weird). I'm also missing the ""View post"" icon which now defaults to the ""Edit post"" one.

the CSS could be refactored I guess in order to avoid using ids.
I have not tested RTL!

Needs UI Feedback	19826	Error behavior for deleting trashed posts is different for Bulk Delete versus Empty Trash		Trash	3.1.2	normal	minor	Awaiting Review	defect (bug)	new	ui-feedback	2012-01-13T18:38:00Z	2012-06-19T19:34:42Z	"Bug testing a custom blog build, but I may have located a bug with core (wp-die) Trash error messages.

Background:
*The blog has different users, with different roles.
*Issue occurs on trash page of a custom post type (post status = trash .../edit.php?post_status=trash&post_type=subject)
*Trash contains posts by both an admin role (who can add/edit/delete all custom posts) and an author role (who can add/edit/delete his/her own posts).
*Logged in as an author.
*Using Capability Manager Plug-in. (Tested bug without plugin too)
*Issue is specific to behavior after normal WP-error is thrown.

Issue:
Same WP error. Two different behaviors.

Different functionality occurs between using the Bulk Actions (Delete Permanently) > ""Apply"" button and the ""Empty Trash"" button, after a normal WP error is thrown. In the first case (Bulk Actions > Apply [1a below]), after I return from the error page and refresh the Trash page, all of the selected author pages have been deleted. No admin pages have been deleted.
In the second case (""Empty Trash"" [1b below]), after I return from the error page and refresh the Trash page, all of the selected author pages have NOT been deleted. No admin pages have been deleted.


Behavior:
1a. When I am logged in as an author and I highlight posts by both author and admin, and I attempt to delete using Bulk Actions (Delete Per.) > ""Apply"", I receive the WordPress error ""You are not allowed to delete this item."" ///After I return from the error page and refresh the Trash page, all of the selected author pages have been deleted. No admin pages have been deleted.

1b. When I am logged in as an author and I highlight posts by both author and admin, and I attempt to delete using ""Empty Trash"" button, I receive the WordPress error ""You are not allowed to delete this item."" ///I return from the error page and refresh the Trash page, all of the selected author pages have NOT been deleted. No admin pages have been deleted.

returning to the Trash page. Tested both scenarios.
1. I hit back on the browser, and return to the Trash page. I refresh the page.
2. Move to a different WP admin page, not the Trash page, then return to the Trash page.

Question, because the same text/error is thrown for both buttons, why is the functionality different? Both single functions seem appropriate, however, having both functions exist together instead of picking one behavior seems problematic."	jpbellona

This problem has been pointed out by a lot of people and it surfaced after the new Gmail design came out. The problems it generated are very similar and as you may have used it, there are no labels for the email recipients field and the subject field.

The issue is not very big as such but it does generate ambiguity in some cases. The solution to this would be to have the label as an overlay on the input, which can slide/move to a new position on focus. And placeholder text can be used as help text.

Guidelines: http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/WAI-WEBCONTENT-19990505/

Not being an accessibility expert, I am not sure of all of the violations. But guideline 6.3 states ""Ensure that pages are usable when scripts, applets, or other programmatic objects are turned off or not supported. If this is not possible, provide equivalent information on an alternative accessible page.""

This means that you should be able to do all functions in the WP back end with JavaScript disabled.

As of 2.8-bleeding [11148], there are several things you cannot do with JavaScript disabled:

1) Upload and attach media to a post. You can upload media in the Media section, but the media upload section of the post edit screen is missing without JS, and I see no way to attach it to a post.

2) Add tags to a post or change which tags are on a post. The tags section is totally blank without JavaScript. (It could at least have the default plain-text field that is there behind the scenes and hidden).

This happens often when I'm browsing, and on a server with a relatively slow AJAX round trip, it can happen quite commonly.

Problem: If you open Quick Edit, then the ajax results should noop. There might be other actions, but this one in particular does not lead to another page (which obviously would kill the ajax).

The reverse is also an issue. You can search, paginate, or sort when Quick Edit is open, and you lose your edit. This might be bad when quick editing a comment, as you could be losing actual content. Searching and paginating might be explicit actions, but it's not difficult to accidentally click a th and trigger a sort, especially if the first row's quick edit (or bulk edit) is open.

I'm not sure what to do here, other than a JS popup for any time a Quick/Bulk Edit is open, asking you if you want to lose your changes.

So again, two things:

 - Kill the AJAX action if Quick Edit is opened. I would consider this lower priority.

 - 'Lose your changes' confirmation for quick edit and bulk edit before an AJAX action. (We can probably fire the AJAX action and trigger the alert simultaneously, but delay processing the results until the confirm() is true.)"	nacin

The UX on this section is fairly terrible. We give the user an editable ""rel"" field and then don't let them edit it via javascript. Note that if you disable javascript and then edit that field, then your changes are indeed saved and then even show up on the resulting pages correctly. That javascript just won't let you manually edit the field. 

I propose that the javascript on this section be changed to allow manual editing of that field, and to make the checkbox/radio sections just add/remove the relevant bits from the field when they are selected/deselected. Result should allow user to manually insert stuff into the rel field and leave those manual insertions unaltered when changing the radio/checkboxes, unless they conflict with the selections being made directly.

Also, side note, would be nice to add a nofollow checkbox to this section as well, to allow easy addition of nofollow to the rel field, which would be handy for the somewhat over-controlling SEO oriented people. ;)

Why would I want to reply to a comment that is pending approval, still hidden, and not even fully displayed to me?

Why can't I see the whole comment?  It only shows me an excerpt here, and in order to actually read the comment I have to click over to Comments on the admin menu and find what I'm looking for manually.

Why does the most prominent link for the comment take me to the post editing screen?  When is this ever useful?

I'd like to propose that we make this page a bit nicer to end users - who although are unlikely to hit it (I hope) it'd be nice to let them know what's actually happened.

My initial approach would be to change the page to 
- Include a !WordPress logo, and a link back to the Admin area
- Change the message to something like ""The link you've followed has now expired, In order to complete the action you were performing, please return to the previous page, refresh it, and attempt to follow the link again."".
- In the case where this is happening within the !WordPress admin, it would make sense to have some kind of UI on the page as well - This can currently be done by not using `check_admin_referer()` and using `wp_verify_nonce()` directly and redirecting to an error page.

The current message could often cause confusion, as of course the user wants to do it (They just followed a link!) but as there's no continue button, they're left confused."	dd32

But maybe we should just honor the site on which people are trying to login, so that it's all relative.  Given the link on the bottom (back to...) goes to the relative site, this is a logical change.

This bug can be reproduced in WordPress 3.0 by opening two tabs – one tab with a blog’s Dashboard, and another tab with the same blog’s New Post page. In the Dashboard, click Logout, then switch to the New Post tab. Here, enter any text in the post’s title, then hit Tab to switch to the editor. This will trigger the permalink preview, which will in turn trigger the notice about being logged out: “ALERT: You are logged out! Could not save draft. Please log in again.”

The default behaviour of the new 'Internal Linking' feature is to auto-insert the title attribute as a duplicate of the link text.

This is not best-practise and, contrary to some beliefs, doesn't actually aid accessibility.

'''Solution'''

The title field should be blank by default and only included if the uses enters data.

'''Why?'''

Title text is only useful when it is *different* to the actual link text AND provides additional information.  Duplicating the link text in this fashion just adds fuzz to the page.

If the status of a post is set to Password Protected, and a password is not specified before the user clicks the OK button in visibility and then either publishes, saves, or updates the post, no warning is given to the user that not setting a password forces the post or page to remain Public.

In fact, if updating a post, and this is the only change made, the success message (1) for updating the post appears instead, even though no change was made to the post.

If the post was previously published as Private, and switched to Password Protected without entering a password, then saved, the post switches to Public on save instead of remaining Private.

Either a failure message upon updating or a warning to the user before saving should be displayed to the user to remind them that they didn't properly set a password.

To reproduce the last case above:

1. Create a post. Publish it as Private.
2. Edit the post. Change the visibility to Password Protected, but do not enter a password. Click OK.

it's been suggested on the Forum that I start a new ticket here. I think it's a good idea. 

Here's a couple of suggestions that I believe if implemented would greatly improve WordPress functionality and popularity:

1) Make the Display Widget  for pages visible by default, the way it was before the WordPress 3.0. Many non-blog WordPress website owners, and many bloggers, want the comments for pages disabled, but have no idea how to do that, because the Discussion checkbox in the Screen Options panel for Pages  is deselected by default. As a result, most people new to WP 3 have no idea that Discussion Widget even exists, and have trouble disabling comments on pages. 

Disabling such comments is very necessary in many situations. For example, a page that includes only a contact form, shouldn't have comments. Most WordPress users do not need their portfolios, or their ""About"" pages commented – and so on. 

2) Create the checkbox that would allow to toggle all comments (old and new) comments for all pages with one click – and a separate checkbox that would allow to toggle all comments (old and new) for all posts – site-wide. 

Many WordPress based business websites have hundreds of pages, and it would save a lot of time if the owner or designer could just disable the comments by deselecting one checkbox. I do realize it can be easily done by commenting out the comments in the code, but wouldn't it be nicer to have it as a checkbox option? 

Some of the owners of such sites want to have a blog on their site, too - and want to have comments as a traditional part of blog functionality. That's what comments for pages and posts should be toggle-able site-wide independently from each other. 

For best experience, the post comments should also have a toggle checkbox. Some owners may want to disable comments for all posts site-wide, too. 

To see where this request is coming from, please Google ""disable comments for pages wordpress"" and you will see that the issue does cause quite a bit of confusion. 

Also please see this thread of the WordPress support forum about: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-comments-for-page-option/

I hope this suggestion helps to improve WordPress – already the greatest open source CMS platform.

My thoughts was to do something like show the red error message block if any errors occur and have a JS enabled link in this to show a more detailed list of items that were not imported, followed by a table of results displaying the number of succeses, failures and skips (for content already present) for each of the separate sets of data imported.

'''Error strings'''
These need to be useful, there's not much point in saying something went wrong but not giving enough information to diagnose the real issue. They also need to be displayed well (see above), an example of a weird one is trying to import a WXR 1.0 file with an author with a display name non-[a-zA-Z].

'''Other'''[[BR]]
The fix for #13627 needs to be done properly. The role a new user will be imported as is now being displayed but I don't think it's prominent enough yet. You'll see that it's mentioned on step two when choosing how authors will be imported, but if you're someone like me who often only skims instructions it is pretty easy to miss. Maybe some bold/highlighting and another reminder on the final screen?

Anything else people notice as not clear enough when giving the importer a test."	duck_

1) Spam

Spam is easy to understand, and should be marking the admin and site as spam. Delete ditto, hi.

Deactivate and Archive are weird though and almost seem backwards.  Deactivate means to turn OFF (like deactivating a plugin).  Archive implies that you're making a site read-only.

Right now, if you change a site to 'deactivated' it actually shows up as DELETED and the front end has the message ""This user has elected to delete their account and the content is no longer available.""  Clearly the verbage on the network/sites.php page needs to be updated (and perhaps the front end to 'This site has been deactivated.' to be consistant).

If you 'Archive' a site it kicks it to a paler pink in the sites.php page (though the 'Archived' text is white and nigh impossible for me to read) and the front end says ""This site has been archived or suspended.""

It's rather illogical there.  Archive SOUNDS like it should be making things read-only (and turning off commenting and posting if possible).  Otherwise it should just be 'Suspend', and at that point, why have two options that pretty much do the same thing from the front-end perspective?"	Ipstenu

(See `secret_salt_warning()` in wp-admin/includes/ms.php)  While performing that check, WP should also see if any of the keys/salts are using the default string of ""put your unique phrase here"".

The default string is pre-set for all eight keys/salts that ship in wp-config-sample.php.  While the inline documentation indicates that those values should be changed, there is no notice or prompting to alert/remind the admin if the default string is left intact.

Bear in mind that `wp_salt()` (in wp-includes/pluggable.php) ignores the keys/salts that use the default phrase or are blank strings, so security isn't compromised.  However, if we want the admins to define secure phrases in wp-config.php, we should make them aware when that's not the case.

The attached patch modifies `secret_salt_warning()` to also check that the keys/salts aren't using the default phrase and aren't blank strings (same check as done in `wp_salt()`).  If any are, the warning message provides a link to the wordpress.org secret key service.

See the attached image to see an example where I've removed LOGGED_IN_SALT from wp-config.php (the error message for that is already what WP generates) and where I've left the default phrase in place for AUTH_KEY and AUTH_SALT and set NONCE_SALT to '' (triggering the error message added by the attached patch).

== What is expected ==

With the current caption, users expect that the name and email fields aren't shown.


== What happens instead ==

The name and email fields are still displayed, but they are now optional instead of being required. Some of the themes do not explain whether the fields are required or optional, so the users think that unchecking the option has no effect.

Would it be possible to add some wording to the Add Media screen in WP.com
blogs to tip users off that they can upload multiple images at once by holding
down CTRL in Windows or CMD on a Mac? Stumbled upon this nifty feature
myself today under the category of “here goes nothing, let’s see if this works.”

I am not sure if this is supposed to work this way, but it does have the 'toggle' class and UX wise it should I think.

Steps to reproduce:
1: Open a post/create a new post
2: Click the Upload/insert media button.
3: in the media iframe click 'Media Library'
4: Click on an 'pinkynail' or title in the list

Nothing happens. I would expect clicking the 'pinkynail' or title to activate the same 'toggle' as the 'show' link does as we read left to right, our eyes are drawn to the image and we are generally choosing an image here, so our instinct is to click that. Plus this is how it works in the 'full' (i.e. non-iframe) version. It could also do with css to make the cursor 'pointer'.

So after clicking the button the wpspin animated images disappears and nothing happens. This can be a problem if the current user think he is logged in and he is not, the settings just will not be saved.

Sometimes the server is not working.

Need to adjust the javascript code and php:
in php we can use die function : die('1') or die('success');

in javascript something like this: 			
{{{
$.post(ajaxurl, data, function(response){
   if (response === 'success') {} else { alert('Fail to save'); } 
});

If you visit any recent post like this one - http://twentytwelvedemo.wordpress.com/2012/03/28/road-trips/

The recent post widget on right sidebar include this post in recent 5 post. We could just exclude present post from the loop using code like this



{{{
<?php
				global $post;
				$args=array(
					""numberposts""=>5,
					""orderby""=>""post_date"",
					""post__not_in""=>array($post->ID)

				$posts = get_posts($args);
	
				foreach($posts as $post) {
					setup_postdata($post);

Most theme has it. If you are already in a post which is among recent 5, no point of showing it in the loop.

In my humble opinion this is bad UX and the sidebar box should expand automatically when being hovered over with a draggable and it should accept the draggable to it's containing droppable/sortable as well.

The obstacles to overcome:
- Since the draggable in most cases overlaps the sidebar box when dragging over it ( unless you move really quickly ) it's hard to register a 'mouseenter'. This could be solved by setting the 'cursorAt' option for the draggable.
- Opening a sidebar box is trivial but activating the droppable/sortable only seems to kick in when the draggable has been released."	ldebrouwer

In the side bar, there is also a 'Categories' section, that always displays 'No categories', maybe remove that as well?"	bradparbs
