[JENKINS-16408] Initial state of the new dashboard view not user friendly #231

Open TobiX opened 11 years ago

TobiX commented 11 years ago

For those users who came from other views expect that it is suffice to select several jobs to start using the dashboard view plugin.

But if no portlet is configured, the view just shows an empty page. This is not very user friendly.

Either the new view should contain some initial portlets to get the user going, or otherwise show the welcome message to encourage users to add portlet when none is defined.

(Based on the actual user feedback at a training.)

mambu:

Agree 100%. We may start with the standard jenkins job view and maybe two others (the most common? if we know which they are).
