improve the cache list UI #45

Closed wildskyf closed 6 years ago

wildskyf commented 6 years ago

as @bendover22 said:

as of v2.3 there's still no way to select multiple entries at once in the drop list to delete them. AFAIK, only one entry can be selected - to show in TACL's display, before you can delete it.

That's fine for 1 or 2 entries. Very tedious for 10+, deleting one at a time. That's assuming user doesn't want to "delete all cache."

I'm not sure how hard it'd be to add the option to select a continuous block of entries (e.g., Shift + click), or to select several non-adjacent entries (e.g., Ctrl + click - random entries), then delete selected items at once.

I would like to see an option to clear the textarea cache when the browser is closed (assuming it didn't close due to a crash). That way, the list never gets too long. I don't think I've ever needed to recover text from a previous browser session.

@Gitoffthelawn yes, that is the #21 😉

Doh! Forgot about that issue!

Here is the struct of the list of new UI

Features:

click checkbox in the title field allow you to select all items
click URL in each item will open that URL
click summary or date in each item will open the page in which there are the old UI (or maybe better)
you can filter the result by using the search bar
the ? button will tell you how to filter

Maybe I will add a button after Date, and just click you could go to the old UI or maybe copy the cache directly.
