make the page title and menu text field width wider in admin

Post by stevegos »

I would like to see the page titles and menu text width on the admin backend wider.

At present (v 1.10.3) you can only see around 13 characters but you can type in more.

In the 1.11 beta this field has been reduced!!! Now you can only see around 9 characters.

(the amount you see will depend on the width of the characters - you can get loads of i but only a few m)

I would love to see it wider, not smaller.

The page title > around 30 characters
The menu text > around 20 characters

I know you can type in more characters than are displayed, but from a user point of view, its not great that you can only see a fraction of what you've typed.

And using three callsigns, makes me make these invisible for you!
Some people just don't know how to use words like "please" or "would be nice for usability" or "thank you" and so on!!

Thank you.

Can I just add that in correct English language (UK English at least) the exclamation mark (which I believe you referred to as a callsign) is the correct way to add importance or drama to a statement. It may of course have different meaning in other languages.

Yes i meant exclamation mark and there is a difference between 1 or 3 ;)
But let's not go deeper in useless discussion, fields are set to min-width of 25% for OneEleven theme in 1.11 SVN trunk.
