Increase height of language selector form when edition nodes #331

Open hannahackermans opened 7 years ago

hannahackermans commented 7 years ago

One new issue that came up while cleaning the "other" section ( #159 ) is that we now have so many languages that it is a little impractical to have such a small box in edit. I think it would help if we could make the language box 8 instead of 4 languages long.

Suggestion I

Yes, the list to pick from is getting quite long. Perhaps we should consider changing selection widget? If we change it to, example autocomplete, we could perhaps fix both issues? If we do this though. All content types, language widgets and help text, should be changed. Perhaps except for the original language selector that is would like to keep as it is since it is used as a binary switch to control the text field visibility. But that probably needs to be tested, might not be the case.

Autocomplete widget

Suggestion II

Another way to do this is to have another field on the lang. taxonomy term that we could sort by for those "special" one. Sorting then would be in a special elmcip sort code.

Autocomplete or sorted by most to least used (alphabetical as second filter)
