[Feature request] Ask for confirmation in Admin Panel

Question

I just accidentally hit the button "Reset to defaults" in the Posting tab of my admin panel. Now I lost a lot of custom html and settings. Wouldn't it be better to pop up a confirmation window?

+1 for your good idea.

Answer 1

I think so too. My almost addons have that feature. This is a issue that Q2A core should improve.

Plugin example:

1. Add "reset-confirm" folder under qa-plugin
2. Add php files (qa-plugin.php and qa-reset-confirm.php)

qa-plugin.php:

<?php

if (!defined('QA_VERSION')) { // don't allow this page to be requested directly from browser

  header('Location: ../../');

  exit;

}

qa_register_plugin_layer('qa-reset-confirm.php', 'Reset confirm');

qa-reset-confirm.php:

<?php

if (!defined('QA_VERSION')) { // don't allow this page to be requested directly from browser

  header('Location: ../../');

  exit;

}

class qa_html_theme_layer extends qa_html_theme_base {

  function form_button_data($button, $key, $style) {

    if($this->template === 'admin' && $key === 'reset') 

      $button['tags'] .= ' onclick="javascript:return confirm(\'Settings reset to default. Are you OK?\');"';

    qa_html_theme_base::form_button_data($button, $key, $style);

  }

}

Update:

if($this->template === 'admin' && $key === 'reset')  // <<< Updated !
