PR for 18007

We were checking and reporting on the presence of mcrypt. We no longer need to do that as it is no longer a requirement and mcrypt itself is not present in php 7.2 so the checks would fail anyway then.

Didnt see the point in wrapping it in a conditional php version check as we dont need the info any more

Remove language strings.

@Quy unfortunately the policy is not to remove language strings

Quy - comment - 29 Sep 2017

Sorry, I keep forgetting that. Then add a deprecate comment?

@Quy there really isn't much point as no one reads them

I see this in the language files:
; This string is deprecated and will be removed with 4.0.

avatar brianteeman
brianteeman - comment - 29 Sep 2017

and there are thousands of lines of strings which dont have it and they have been removed

infograf768 - comment - 29 Sep 2017

Although COM_ADMIN_MCRYPT_ENABLED should be kept, the specific installation lang strings do not need to remain as the installation folder is totally linked to a new joomla version and not part of Tts lang packs.

as for the 'thousands' of strings which have been deleted in 4.0, it is mostly because a lot of tips have been taken of there (including some that will need to come back in. will make a pr for these).

Code doesn't exist in staging, only 3.9.

If no one beats me to it I will do a pr for that in 3.9 branch on Sunday

including some that will need to come back in. will make a pr for these

@infograf768 please don't bring back tooltips, fix the labels instead

@zero-24 PR #18334 removes the code from 3.9 branch

@dgt41

@infograf768 please don't bring back tooltips, fix the labels instead

Alas, some tips are much too long (and need to be) to be used as labels (the alias tip is only one example).
One idea I have is to change the way these tips are displayed via a ? to click on which would open a modal. Would that be possible and would it be a11y ?

avatar dgt41
dgt41 - comment - 14 Oct 2017

The best a11y is to not use tool tips at all!

avatar infograf768
infograf768 - comment - 14 Oct 2017

OK, then think as a newbie: how do you do for these? Just examples...

@infograf768 for newbies we will have the tour guide. You need to understand we're not in 2006, we're effectively at the end of mobile era and slowly moving into PWA era. Tooltips are not a recommended thing either for mobile or PWA:

@dgt41 what is PWA?

avatar infograf768
infograf768 - comment - 14 Oct 2017

and what about the « tour guide » ? will it be available in all languages? I honestly doubt about this: see the state of the help to understand my concern, which also should be yours.
