Site content Dropdown

The site content dropdown is a plugin to the contextual navigation bar. It's contents are completely pluggable and configuration driven.


In the image above,

  • The dropdown that says dashboard is a plugin.
  • The pages folder is a configurable plugin
  • The components folder is the same plugin as the pages folder but configured in a different way.

  • if the user opens the dropdown menu:
    • It should remain open after page refreshes and logout / login
      • on a preview page it should open to the current page
      • on any other page it should remember what the last item that was opened by the user and reopen
    • If a dialog box comes up it should lay over top of the dropdown menu
    • If the user clicks outside the dropdown it should close
  • if the user closes the dropdown menu:
    • it should remain closed after page refreshes and logout / login
  • dropdown should endforce a minimum width and height, we down't have exact reqs for this but looking at a resolution of 1024 x 768 we should set the mimum to something logical
  • The site dropdown allows the user to resize its width and height and these should be remembered after page refresh and logout / login

Some of the requirements can above can be handled in the dropdown code itself, others (related to opening to the last position the user was looking at) must be implemented in plug-ins implemented in the plugins configured to run in the dropdown (wcm-root-foolder)
