User story & summary:
As a temporary user, I don't want to be linked to Preferences if I can't adjust them, because that would be a poor user experience.
Background & research:
This task is important because it has been decided that:
- Temporary accounts should NOT have access to adjust Preferences T333531: Temporary users should have default notification preferences
- Temporary accounts should receive Echo Notification T330509: [IP Masking] Make Echo Notifications available to temporary users
This task covers any UI adjustments needed to accommodate those requirements.
Questions:
It seems like the main links to Preferences have already been removed. Are there any other areas where Preferences are linked that we need to address for Temporary accounts?
Links to Preferences:
Main user menu.
The link to Preferences has already been removed for Temporary accounts (when testing https://de.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/).
Special:Notifications
The link to Preferences has already been removed for Temporary accounts (when testing https://de.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/).
Note that the entire menu control with Preferences and Mark all read can be removed for Temp accounts:
Notifications or Alerts drop down list
The link to Preferences has already been removed for Temporary accounts (when testing https://de.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/).
Ideally the ">" before the All notifications button should also be removed.
Design:
Acceptance Criteria:
Given I'm logged into a temporary account,
When I reach a screen that includes a link to Preferences,
Then those options are either not shown to me (or it's clear that I need to create an account to adjust Preferences)
AND
Determine if there are other user account menus or Special pages that link to Preferences
