As part of extending the capabilities of the new filters for edit review (T162675), we may want to provide easier ways to move through the list of contributions. Pagination controls can help users to move forward and back though the results for a more exhaustive review of recent changes or backlogs.
Depending on the technical characteristics of the specific page (Recent Changes, Watchlist, etc.) the pagination approach may or may not be applicable in each case. For those cases where pagination can be applied, the proposed approach is described below:
|{F7663016}|{F7663018}|
- Previous and next controls are provided to navigate to another set of results.
-- The page size will be reflected on the controls (and will be updated if the user changes it).
-- In order to facilitate operation, the controls will be either (a) made sticky to remain accessible at the top of the viewport (more details on this below), or (b) be replicated at the bottom of the list.
- Where pagination controls are available, the advanced filtering options will be provided through the "Advanced settings" button. In this way, less frequently used functions don't distract from the navigation controls.
The mockup below illustrate how navigation controls can be provided as part of a sticky header along other entry points to quickly access filtering functionality:
{F7663139}
- The search button provides a quick access to jump into the filters on top. It displays in the label the name of the user stored quick link if any, or some of the filter names as a reference.
- Access to quick links can be provided to facilitate the switching between review activities.
