check live if card name already exists+solution

When creating a card, check the name while it's being created and if the name already exists let the user know, add some red text like, "A card by that name already exists:", followed by a slot with the existing card in closed view.

 

 

Deleted "allow name collision when creating new cards".

Also shifted solution from below to above the card interface, so that it will be visible on card creation links of content-formatted cardtypes (e.g. http://www.wagn.org/new/Ticket ).


I like this as a default solution and would like not to hard code it. Thoughts about how to represent it in cards?

not clear - what do you want represented in cards? The text, something general about cards going above below _main, ... ?

from a broad perspective, I want to start moving more and more system messages, like "a card by that name already exists...." into cards. I think there's a ticket about that somewhere, but in any case it's central to our strategy of internationalization. I don't think we're expecting to do much of any hard-coding of translation.

 

more specifically to this issue, I'm a little hesitant to hard-code anything using closed view into wagn, as some wagns that are on the cms end of the spectrum seem to stray away from the closed/open thing.

 

we may end up hard-coding in the very short term because we'd have to do some magic to make it recognized which card is meant to be closed, but I just wanted to think about our long term (not hard-coded) solution.

Heh, i was just thinking the other day about starting to collect those messages somewhere. The ticket in question is move cue text to editable cards.
