We've launched a complete rewrite of the /modify_part page! Shiny new features:
- "quick nav" menu on the left
- real-time validation
- dynamic fields react to the current "part type" (eg. "faction" doesn't appear unless you mark it as being a "figure")
- added tons of help text (often with little clarifying images)
- tree pickers (ie. "form", "toyline", and "mold") now show a breadcrumb path at the top to show where you are
- completely redesigned the mold picker. In 10 years I don't think anyone other than the moderators has ever dared meddle with it, but the new one has a search feature, a more streamlined interface, and better help. We'll see if it's a little less intimidating...
- more dynamic "Link to Products" section, meaning that the editable column and current part name will update as you tinker with the other fields in the form.
- there's also a more nuanced dynamic between the photo gallery section and the various pickers on the page, particularly around deleting photos. It's a bit difficult to explain, but basically deleting a photo no longer immediately creates any corresponding changes to the image pickers, meaning you can go back in to edit your submission and un-delete a photo, and the pickers will revert to their previous state.
That's more or less the gist of it! Please don't be shy about leaving feedback or making suggestions for improvements.
