Users screen - change request

After adding a substantial number of users (>2000) to jive messenger, the users screen becomes unusable.

With 2.1.2 you can specify the number of users per page, but I don’'t think anyone wants to see screen upon screen of Page:[1 2 3…] on both sides of the table. (I have a nice screen shot if I could attach it!)

Wouldn’'t something like

  • Pages: 200 - Previous

as per jive forums be a lot more usable…

2.1.2 quirky behaviour on users screen.

1 ) have added 102 users and then open users page

2 ) inital page

Below is a list of users in the system.

Pages:

. detail ommited

.

Pages:

  1. select page 2 and reference to page 1 disappears

User Summary

Below is a list of users in the system.

Total Users: 102 – Showing 16-30, Sorted by Username - Users per page:

Pages:

  1. click on page 3 and you get Pages:

  2. click on page 4 and you get Pages:

  3. click on page 5 and you get Pages:

  4. repeat until last page (7) and you get Pages:

I guess this is an effort to handle the type of issue I mentioned in my previous post, but its very quirky and not what I would have expected. There is a need to handle presentation of large numbers of users but I would urge you to think about my previous post.

Ryan, what do you think? Is this the intended behaviour?

Cheers,

Conor.

Conor,

Thanks for the detailed description. I made a minor tweak to the page so that the “1” page always shows up – check out the nightly build tonight and look for user-summary.jsp.

Longer term we’'ll make better changes to the paginator but this should suffice for now.

Cheers,
