Description

With the new UI upgrade, the favorite_actions() method was removed from the main UI. After a brief discussion with Westi, it made sense to put the functionality back in as part of the adminbar.

The attached patch does that using the favorite_actions() method (which can now return the filtered list of favorite_actions as an array). We should eat our own dog food.

Dont' do cap check because each action should provide its own checks.

Take 3. Lots of red. Wheeee! New patch allows for a string or an array to be passed. The array can have an optional cap. Unit test included as next attachment.

  • Component changed from General to Administration
  • Summary changed from Add Favorite Actions to Quick Bar to Add Favorite Actions to Admin Bar

I don't think simply moving the favorite actions to the admin bar is a good idea.

For example, there are two links to 'Comments' now.

Per IRC discussion - cap check should go, as each favorite action has its own cap check. If the user doesn't have caps for any action, then the menu shouldn't be added.

I think we should cripple favorite_actions() to only return actions that were added via a filter. That way we offer some backwards compatibility without offering duplication. Otherwise, the various actions under "Add New" replace the core links, as well as the screen-dependent "Edit X" being added in #17499.

Acknowledged. I'll put some cycles into that tonight or tomorrow. Should be simple.

Koop should look at this as part of admin bar redux he's working on now for 3.3, no? Probably would need a patch refresh to fit in?

Marking this as wontfix as it's a moot point 2 years later.

Why reopen this? It should really be part of the MP6 development if anything....

#9 @SergeyBiryukov

I didn't reopen the ticket, just corrected the component and removed the milestone.

"close" keyword is for marking a ticket as a candidate for closure, no need to add it if you're actually closing the ticket.

Ah cool. My bad. Thanks!
