I agree, at the moment you have to open the report from the Administration → Models → Models menu item, so it is not too easy for a normal user to get hold of it.
When issue9649 is done, do you also think it might be a good improvement to include any help text from the state field selections in the Model Workflow Graph too? Perhaps as small text under the state name, using HTML-Like Labels?
I think it should be improved to make it more user friendly as it currently only shows the internal names of the transitions and the models. If we plan to show this to the end user it should use the user language for model name and selection options.
Maybe we should have two reports: One for developers from Models menú and other for users from the workflow button.
I’m writing documentation for a new module following the new format.
I need to document a scheduled task that user must define. I’m wondering where should it go? My first idea is to put it under usage.rst.
If it is a scheduled task that the user needs to create then I think usage.rst is probably a good location for it.
Another alternative is setup.rst, but that is intended to be used for things that need to be setup before the module will work, and I think very few scheduled tasks (by their nature) would fit into that category.
I think it is unlikely that it needs to be directly mentioned in the design.rst.
The idea is that in either of those files you would have a section with a title such as “Scheduling something to happen”, or maybe “Automatically updating something”, and it would describe what the user needs to do to accomplish that (often with links to the various models and wizards that may be involved).
@dave, I see that in readthedocs repository, you changed the link for a :ref:…<index-…>. I’m wondering how it will work for the different series? How will the build of this main page for series 6.0 will correctly link to the documentation of the module of the same series?
Would you be able to point out where that change is?
I don’t think it will. I don’t think readthedocs repository knows which version it is, so all the links need to be relative. So it’s something that I would need to fix.
Also without a conf.py file it cannot link to external documentation, as Intersphinx won’t be enabled.
