4) One more issue is that for most users it's not obvious that the UI can be used to install new exensions; this is because the current UI doesn't adequately differentiate between configuring existing addons, and finding new addons to install. It would be preferable if MM clearly distingushed between the separate workflows for: a) Configuring / Updating installed extensions b) Finding/Installing new extensions The simplest approach might be to have 2 Tabs: Installed | More addons... The content for each of the tabs could be: Installed Show: All, [User-installed], Configurable ... More addons: Show: all search categories other than those above . . . . . Search: ... |

I have just realized that I resolved this issue without seeing Rusty's last ( 0021928:0080286 ) note about the two tabs approach, did you mean to implement this for 2024.2.1 or 2026 ? I see that 'More addons' would be a new string while "Get more addons" and "Find more addons" are already translated ? Alternatively we could add third dropdown like this: Show: [User-installed | Available] Category: [All] Search: _________________ .. but the two tabs approach with new strings 'Installed' and 'More addons' is probably clearer and thus shoudl be targeted for 2026 ? |

Re. 4) A possible UI that wouldn't require new strings: The simplest approach might be to have 2 Tabs: Addons | Find more addons... The content for each of the tabs could be: Addons: Show: All, [User-installed], Configurable ... [Install addon from File] . . . . . [Check for updates] [Close] ------------------------------------------------------- Find more addons: Show: <search categories other than the above> . . . . . Search: ______________ ... [Get more addons (Web)] [Install addon from file...] . . . . . . . . . [Close] |
