motivation

greggles's picture

The motivation for this question is that the breadcrumbs, navigation menu, and top tabs of cck field management all go away when editing a field. One solution is to make each field a subtab which has the drawback of being ugly if you have more than about 10 fields. So...the question is how often that happens. And...?

Speak now or have an ugly interface!

Ugly OK, but please not unusable

zirvap's picture

Looking at my various CCK content types, I see that most use only a few fields, but some use a lot more than 10 (20 for the biggest one, so far). In other words: Ugly interface for more than 10 fields is OK, but unusuable is not.

What happens with all those subtabs if I use a theme with a fixed width? Do they disappear out of the screen, or do they just stack vertically?

convenience

This is only about a convenience and a context - not a required navigation element. You can always access the pages from the parent page.

I voted 20-40% but it's about 20% (as opposed to 10-20%).
