There are several issues in the WebID swticher that need to be enhanced/fixed
See original GitHub issueThere are several issues in the WebID swticher/dropdown that need to be enhanced/fixed:
When the user is logged in, the item Authorise to display your WebIds
is a link which even logs an error when clicked (Uncaught TypeError: n is not a function
). That item should be just a label and the text should be improved as it’s not clear what it means.
When the connecton to the network is slow, this brings some confusion to the user. The WebIDs are not displayed immediately when opening the dropdown, the Authorise to display your WebIDs
link is shown for a few secs, then for another secs No WebIds found
and Updating WebIDs
items are shown, then after another few secs the webids are displayed, and this may even fail suposely due to some connection problems. We need to enhance this to have some visual indication of what’s happenign in the back, perhaps a “loading” message/icon
All these issues were taken from the discussion taking place in the forum starting in this post: https://safenetforum.org/t/safe-browser-v0-11-0-release/26792/56

Hmm, I’m getting the issue in both situations - whether I log in before toggling experiments or toggling then logging in… https://docs.google.com/document/d/1xraXXC0jT_Q2qENemcgknna1uk058WMFo7-GoceVjZ4/edit This is prod browser I have built today.
I think so @calumcraig , if I understand correctly what’s being reported there.
I also think I found a pattern for this issue, e.g I seem to be able to reproduce it always like this:
If I otherwise skip step 2, and log in the authenticator only after step 3, then step 4 seems to work fine, well…with its current UX limitations ofc, which we should enhance, but I get the list of WebIDs.
