Description

I attempted to use PluginPivotTable in a new page in dev.t.o: Bug report evolution

  1. I first wrote {pivottable} in the wiki page and saved (to check whether there was going to be some helper to find the right compulsory params that where missing (tracker:5 assigned to some param name, which I didn't remember)
  2. then I edited again the wiki page, and clicked at the plugin toolbar icon to get the popup helper for pivottable.
    • this requested me to indicate the first compusolry field, which offered to me to select some wiki page name, but not the right param content for the data source (tracker:n o activityStream). First error/regression (it used to allow typing any text there, afair, but it currently deletes what the user types since it doesn't match any option from the list of wiki page names shown).
    • I selected some page name, so that I could get the param name correctly written in plugin call in the textarea of the wiki page, to fix the value assigned to that param name manually, while also writing to text in the body of the plugin textarea while still in the popup helper. But when I attempted to accept to get the syntax inserted in the wiki page, I got this error message:


Plugin edit failed

Oups, bad user experience. Looks like as if it was some experimental feature, while it has been there for years across many versions.
