Couple things I believe we need for UNA & The Storefront....

First off, many apps on the Store simply do not have instructions with them on how to use them. An example is 'Profiler', which on the description sounded like something I wanted to use, so I installed it. Unfortunately thats where it ended, as it does not show up as an icon to click on, seems to have no way to actually view the data recorded, and I have no idea how to access it or how to use it. Some of these APPS need more involved instructions on useage...

Which brings me to my second issue, there is no way to REMOVE an APP from your UNA site once installed. I wish to get rid of the Profiler, as it's taking up valuable space I would like to reclaim for an APP i am not using. Is that something we could have added to UNA, the ability to de-install an APP?

Lastly, my users are rather confused by the lack of being able to actually use APPS...For example: You click on 'Discussions' and get to a screen where it shows you discussions in progress, but none of them are in any particular order, just kinda randomly jumbled in an unknown order. UNA will show you a comment made on a discussion, but not the actual discussion it is attached to, you have to dig around a bit to find it. Also the discussions page does not give you any way to make a new discussion, or topic. 99% of my users are unaware of the usefulness of the upper right '+' button, or what it does, so I am getting complaints of most of my APPS not being able to use them, but just read them. Is this something we can make a GUI change to, so users can easily find a button to make new content right on the APP they are using rather than a hidden "+" button?

    • Thank you for the feedback. We certainly need to allocate more time to document the apps. We should be able to update a number of the description around mid-March.

      As for removing apps - you can remove apps completely. You need to enter "manage" mode in Studio (magic wand) and this will show "Delete" icon next to inactive apps in Studio launcher. Note, that you need to deactivate the app first.

      As for adding "Add" button, we actually routinely do this for various projects, but it's not something we want to do out of the box. You can add a button wherever you want using a menu block and placing it with the action you want on any page.
