User settings in page trail not clickable

Open cintek opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

When you visit the pages +history, +index/, +tags or +<username>/user this page appears in the page trail but is not clickable there. On the other hand when you visit a "normal" page the page also appears in the page trail but in this case it is clickable.

To improve consistency I recommend to make all items clickable that are on the last position of the page trail or to make all of them non-clickable. I prefer the latter option because you are already on that page. You don't need to navigate again to it (and you have the reload option of the browser).

What makes it even more confusing is, that

  • the special pages (+admin/user, +usersettings, +index, +history, +tags) appear after the page trail as the sixth element to the five-element page trail
  • but they do not get included in the page trail itself

So in contrast to @cintek I suggest to either

  • do not display them at all after the page trail, or
  • make them proper elements in the page trail

I would prefer removing them from page trail. The main purpose is to have a short link to previously visited items. The special pages have their own links in the menu and need not be included. Are there any other considerations?
