Description

Add a table listing all of a user's watchlist labels, to Special:WatchlistLabels. The edit and delete links/buttons are not part of this task.

Users have a maximum of 100 labels, so pagination is not required for this table.

Empty state:

Labels selected:

Other design details are on Figma: https://www.figma.com/design/CdyroPkkcT7GJA9bwno0Rq/WE1.4-Task-priotization?node-id=423-86036&t=kzV8iM57mMMtFBiy-4

Some of the design components are not yet available with Codex-PHP, and the nearest similar components will be used instead.

Samwilson moved this task from Ready for Dev to In Development on the Community-Tech (Fox Squad) board.

It doesn't look like it's possible yet to customize the empty-state message for Codex-PHP. The default is There is no data available..

I've opened T409250 to fix this, but for now I suggest for now we show the '+ New' progressive button in the table header, even when the table is empty.

Samwilson moved this task from Feedback and Review to QA on the Community-Tech (Fox Squad) board.

The current implementation does not exactly match the design. There is still functionality to be implemented.

Empty:

Not empty:

I didn't test no-JS as that hasn't been implemented yet (right?)

I have raised a few bugs T410370, T410373, T410375.

@Samwilson I notice that there is currently no way to sort the labels. Should that be a separate task?

Users have a maximum of 100 labels, so pagination is not required for this table.

This doesn't appear to be enforced. Should we create a separate task?

I didn't test no-JS as that hasn't been implemented yet (right?)

It has been, and I was about to say that it's all working fine, but actually I seem to have stuffed it up! So let me have a look at that. The styles aren't loading, because I had to switch to using JS to load the icons. I think it might be okay to not load the icons in no-JS, I'm not sure.

I notice that there is currently no way to sort the labels. Should that be a separate task?

I just created it today: T410356: Make label manager columns sortable

This doesn't appear to be enforced. Should we create a separate task?

Good idea. Done: T410383: Limit watchlist labels to 100 per user

Thanks Sam.
