We had a good chat today about the status of the front-end editor plugin and where it’s going. To recap, we talked about the following:
- The overall list of tasks is on a spreadsheet now. It will probably grow considerably over time. If you’re interested, comment here to sign up!
- The color scheme of the front-end editor was based on the MP6 customizer being black. The customizer (as has landed in core) has changed to white/grey, so we should update the plugin as well.
- On the color scheme topic, it may be possible to use color schemes for the editor in the future, but it’s not worth looking at until much later in the process.
- The plugin currently has an MP6 dependency, which is no longer needed given that MP6 has landed in core.
- The fade of the edit bars is a bit too much and should be removed, though this won’t exist when the toolbar moves up to the admin bar.
- In edit mode, things might look better if everything but the content fades out, but we need to determine how to do this right.
- The project is still in its early stages. It might be worth working up some other concepts before we get too far along in one direction.
Next steps:
@avryl to remove the MP6 dependency, add the wordpressdotorg author to the plugin, and fix the permalink issue.Done.- @shaunandrews will explore some other concepts.
- Setup a Skype group for those interested in contributing.
- The meeting time will change to Mondays at 16:00 UTC going forward.
