I'm been using XOOPS for years now and one problem that keeps coming up with our clients is the issue of how complicated the admin section is to use. It is a bit intimidating for a lot of people. So I put together a mockup of some suggestions on improvements of the admin section. I'm a designer, so I can't help with the programming, but I can help with the HTML/CSS development. Let me know what you guys think.
Notes:
Organization by Action, rather than by module
Expandable action sections
Ability to minimize Admin sections or turn them off
Icons are under the LGPL.
WYSIWYG integration for blocks and news is key (Fckeditor or TinyMCE with ibrowser)
Notes section for users to keep reminders
Real time user list
Maybe a drop down menu with redundant info should go across the top?
Admin Section ought to be themable to further customize stuff
Thanks!
