Do not hide error message notifications #272

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Currently all messages, including informational and error messages, are hidden 
after some time. This is very inconvenient, because while debugging or 
reporting error, most of the times you'll need to copy error message or just 
check it one more time for confirmation.
I'd suggest for important information to add "Close" button in message corner, 
so that the user could decide, when to hide particular message.

This issue affects almost all error messages. E.g. when installing GetSimple, 
on first page error message tells you to give permissions 755 or 777 to /data 
and /backups directories. While user opens up FTP manager, error message will 
be gone, and he will need to refresh page to see what permissions to what 
specific directories he has to set.
Some users might even assume, if error message is gone, the problem has been 
resolved.

I agree with some of that Joshas. I think certain error messages should stay on 
the screen, but some need to be removed after a short period. 

What about this: Error messages "Keep", Success Messages "Collapse" ?

The reason this was added was because I would click "save" on a page, then 
forget to save it again because the success message said "saved" up top even 
though it was saved quite a long time ago. That success message needed to be 
auto-hid to make sense.

Yes, lets keep only error messages, success messages can be dissmissed after 
timeout.

AH now I get it... 

yeah makes sense to leave the error messages and dismiss other after timeout.

I agree. Lets stop the collapse for error messages.
