Writer's Portal: 2/3/21 Menus Update!

@Melani3 Thanks for new menu, I’d have a few suggestions that maybe your team can consider in the future!

First, saving the space in the table:

  • I think the section “published, early access, draft” can be easily replaces with icons with hovers to save the space. Like there’s a diamond do early access, green dot for published and pencil for a draft. Each can have a hover information that is already visible. The information “published, but before with early access” isn’t as important to see it all the time, and it takes over 50% of the space.
  • the fonts for titles and dates can be much smaller, they’re really huge now on the web and you can go with usual 11-12pt font

Now if the space would be saved there are two very important information.

  • Last update of chapters (where all chapters were published) - it was there before but now it disappeared, but it was nice to see when we updated the templates etc.
  • The date of publishing the chapter for the first time (premiere) - it was never there and we have to base on our instagram posts or personal spreadsheets to keep up with it. It would really help if you consider adding this option to see when each episode was published.

For the gem payment, I’d consider using more space of the web and mobile viewer (right now it uses only 75% width and it’s very squeezed), changing the fonts to smaller too and moving the “status” label to the month section - right now we have three sections that are empty and the numbers are so squeezed that on mobile I see only 4 numbers out of 6, it’s very uncomfortable to read it :light_smile: if this label was moves on the right side of the month (to always be visible even if we have it hidden) it would be more functional and save the space in the table.

But anyway, awesome update, it helps a lot!
