iOS Client can work only with demo sitemap #137

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
There is no way to select sitemap in iOS client like in Android client.
It always adds 'sitemap:demo' to the connection string.

The button is on the url selection box in the upper left corner. Does this work?

@Pablo, I told you that users won't find the sitemap selection button even 
though it is visible on the screen...

How do you suggest me to show it?

Possibly at the bottom (under the discovered servers) as a list of available 
sitemaps (where one is ticked) - so no further submenu at all. Would that be 
feasible?

What if there are several servers and they hide the button?

no button, a selection list - well, we had this discussion before. I believe 
users will rather scroll down to find the setting than looking for a button in 
the headline - one does not expect it there.

So, as I told you before, you think that a maybe hidden selection list is 
better than an always visible button? 

As I told you, we should force the user to choose a sitemap by disabling the 
"ok" button. Then he/she would look for the sitemap button. But then you asked 
me to choose the first sitemap of the server, and that is why this user gets 
always the demo sitemap, because the client automatically chooses it.

Usually process goes from top to bottom. So after choosing a url, the user 
naturally looks down. So that's where the sitemap selection should be, even if 
it is not visible and the user has to scroll down. And btw, for the 
auto-selection of the sitemap I asked to do this for the servers where there is 
only one sitemap available - you could still disable the ok button for the ones 
where there is a choice of sitemaps.

You are right. I did not found the sitemap button.

What about a bottom toolbar? It would be always visible, its easy to change and 
it will be down. Like at the alternate url

Still I doubt that this is according to any ux guidelines... But better than 
the upper left, yes.

I have sent this update, but I can still take it out to the previous menu.
