As a mobile user, I want to navigate to my user preferences, so that I can customise my experience.
Users currently cannot navigate to Special:Preferences by touch in the mobile web interface. Following the implementation of our new designs, we need to add an obvious link to preferences somewhere in the mobile web interface.
We will add this link to Special:MobileOptions. A better solution overall might be to merge Preferences and MobileOptions in some way, but this has a much larger technical scope, so we will link to Preferences from MobileOptions, as the latter is shown to all users (logged in and out), whereas Preferences is only accessible to logged-in users.
This task is scoped AMC-only for testing purposes. The Special:Preferences update will be made available more widely after testing is complete.
Design
We can provide a direct link to Special:Preferences via a new section in the mobile web "Settings" page Special:MobileOptions. We can use the same styles for the title, the description, and the link as the one used in the sections above. See updated copy below image.
The "Send feedback" link should direct users to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Moderator_Tools/Content_moderation_on_mobile_web/Preferences.
Copy (use instead of mockup text above)
- Title: User preferences
- Description: Change your preferences, including password, website appearance, notification settings, and more.
- Call to action: Open preferences
