Editor: Improve interaction with scheduling dialog #45214

Open sirino opened 4 years ago

sirino commented 4 years ago

Steps to reproduce

  1. Start a new post at https://wordpress.com/block-editor/post/{SITE}
  2. Open the dialog to the change the publication time by clicking on Publish -> Immediately in the post settings side bar
  3. Change the date and time in the calendar dialog

What I expected

I expected the calendar dialog to stay open after selecting a date to allow me to also set a time.

What happened instead

The calendar dialog closes when I select a date by clicking on it, and when I switch from AM to PM or vice versa. Changing the date from, say, today at 10am to tomorrow at 11pm requires me to open the scheduling dialog three times.

Browser / OS version

Chrome 84.0 on MacOS

A similar request here: 3454153-zen where the user does not find the feature very intuitive. They mentioned the publish option appears as "Immediately" which implies that, if selected, the post will be published immediately.

Yes! This drives me nuts.

Related: I want to easily see what other days I have scheduled posts on, so I can plan around them. I feel like this used to be the case.
