Update instructions for adding a member/group

Kati Paizee requested to merge kpaizee-update-project-docs-for-modal into master

What does this MR do?

Updated the project page as follows:

  • Removed the Add a member modal window section, as this is now the default way of adding members and groups. The steps have been incorporated into the Add users to a project and Add groups to a project sections.
  • Moved the version history and flag note to the Add users to a project and Add groups to a project sections. Tweaked the content to refer to the modal window specifically.
  • Removed the Enable or disable modal window section because the FLAG notes point to the feature flag docs which already explain how to enable/disable flag. Ensured the feature flag name is included in the FLAG notes.

Before: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/members/

After: http://main-ee-80618.178.62.207.141.nip.io/ee/user/project/members/

Updated the group page as follows:

  • Removed the Share a group modal window as this now the default.
  • Updated the instructions for Share a group with another group and added version history and feature flag info.

Before: https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/group/#share-a-group-with-another-group

After: http://main-ee-80618.178.62.207.141.nip.io/ee/user/group/#share-a-group-with-another-group

Author's checklist

If you are only adding documentation, do not add any of the following labels:

  • ~"frontend"
  • ~"backend"
  • ~"type::bug"
  • ~"database"

These labels cause the MR to be added to code verification QA issues.

Review checklist

Documentation-related MRs should be reviewed by a Technical Writer for a non-blocking review, based on Documentation Guidelines and the Style Guide.

  • If the content requires it, ensure the information is reviewed by a subject matter expert.
  • Technical writer review items:
    • Ensure docs metadata is present and up-to-date.
    • Ensure the appropriate labels are added to this MR.
    • If relevant to this MR, ensure content topic type principles are in use, including:
      • The headings should be something you'd do a Google search for. Instead of Default behavior, say something like Default behavior when you close an issue.
      • The headings (other than the page title) should be active. Instead of Configuring GDK, say something like Configure GDK.
      • Any task steps should be written as a numbered list.
      • If the content still needs to be edited for topic types, you can create a follow-up issue with the docs-technical-debt label.
  • Review by assigned maintainer, who can always request/require the reviews above. Maintainer's review can occur before or after a technical writer review.
  • Ensure a release milestone is set.
