Participant 7

TASK 1

ISSUE: first button is "save and continue" .. maybe that should be "next" or just "continue"
password checker: great success
password checker is awesome
"Clean URLs sounds nice, I don't know what it means"
Task complete
installation completed without incident

TASK 2

"it is still setup"
thinks he's still looking at a setup screen
Welcome page.
(maybe because same theme?)
Expecting permissions, formatting etc. from site configuration.
"not sure where to start .. to configure website OR .."
"since they say please follow these steps I should probably do that" - when looking at welcome screen
"i am assuming that I can back to this page:
clicks into admin "hmm"
Why do we still have "hide descriptions"?
totally paralyzed by /admin
it seems like he's really lost.
Page: like publisher information in a magazine
Article: would change from issue to issue.
Gets article vs. page pretty well.
adding a page now.
NOTE: the menu patch appears to have broken the text format patch.. both full html and filtered html descriptions appear
clicked preview
reads the description of the revision tab: "dont create new revision" and assumes it is a command.
seems to consistently 'freeze' when presented with too much informtion at once (vertical tabs, admin section). Doesn't really click around, much, just stays there for a long time and looks everything over.
"the article looks ok, I'm just not sure where I'm going to see it"

TASK 3

Menus makes sense to him, so he clicked in
looking through the overview
gets that the menu on the left has more content than a regular user would see
at edit navigation.. question: "do you think you might be able to add the link we're talking about here?" response: "hmmm"... very long pause
ISSUE: all menus are in the navigation menu
"can't tell which part of navigation is site and which part is admin"
(as menu items)
user cannot tell which parts of navigation menu are for admins, and which part are for users
"problem linking content to menu - don't know how to find a path to add in menu item"
I wasn't aware that the page I created had a URL associated.
again, user was not aware of what path their content lived at
It had a title, and some content.
"I clicked on home, and it took me to the schedule"
he realizes he is looking at the website
ISSUE: "A lot of the menu items have disappeared"
"surprised that lot of menu items disappeared on home page" (hidden menu items amazed him)
"amazed" being "terribly confused"
"find a list of content in content section " YaY!!
has no idea that his homepage is exactly what he wants
TASK COMPLETE

TASK 4.

Wonders if the block section is where you create a region
'hm'
admin/build/block
ISSUE: blocks do not appear in the dotted line which signifies the region
wants to decide where to place the block from the block add page
SOLUTION: add a region selection to admin/block/add
BUG: Block body description appears above text format widget
show on every page...except the listed pages? "I'm not sure what a listed page is"
ISSUE: "listed page" makes no sense whatsoever when no pages are listed.
BUG: block title is deleted

TASK 5

he would love views.
talk about freezing on pages where there is too much to do

TASK 6

has the web 1.0 thinking
thinking files and folders = menus = organization
got taxonomy in first place .. relating it to menu some how
understands taxonomy well ... but didn't got a clue from "add vocabulary" link
BUG: more than a single theme is enabled
but not really
clicked configure theme and trying to change color of website
ISSUE: preview in theme settings is broken
BUG: ^
Thinks that vocabularies are terms.
Drag and drop is a win, again - re-ordered the terms.

Knows that everything is in database tables, has a predefined structure "but that's invisible to me"
drupal is like cobol
"sort of like .. in bigger applications its gonna be more useful"
in small applications it's more trouble than it's worth
"Sort of like COBOL. In small applications it's more work than it's worth, in big applications it's gonna be more useful"
in big applications it's probably very useful
"just to do a Hello World is kind of messe"
"All this structuredness just to do 'Hello world'
PDD!
"thinking of reading documentation .. to see how things are different in drupal"
"popup help screes with definations .... "
"It would be nice to have popup help screens, with definitions"
A help logo with a little 'i' in it.
"a popup help with defination could help a lot"
