Update status in user menu after updating via modal
Problem to solve
-
@dimitrieh started a discussion: (+4 comments) Would it be possible to re-open the user menu after completing the status modal by either setting a new status, saving an edited status, or clearing a status?
Further details
Currently, we refresh the page in order to update the status in a variety of places, including the user menu, as well as issue and MR pages that can also display the current user's status.
While we can't solve all of those areas, we want to be able to update the status in the user menu and re-open the user menu afterwards to indicate that the status has indeed been changed/removed.
Proposal
- Update the status emoji and message in the user menu, when a user updates/removes their status in the user status modal.
- Re-open the user menu dropdown, after the modal closes, so the user sees that the status has been updated.
What does success look like, and how can we measure that?
See proposal.
