Bug #105720
openProblem on TYPO3 Redirect Extension - Edit Icon Visibility and Scrolling Problem
0%
Description
Problem Description: In the TYPO3 Redirect Extension, when redirect links are very long, the edit icon located on the far right of each row becomes inaccessible without horizontal scrolling. Furthermore, the horizontal scrollbar is positioned at the bottom of the list, requiring users to scroll down through the list first and then scroll horizontally to reach the edit icon for longer links. This creates a cumbersome workflow, especially when managing a large number of redirects.
Proposed Solution:Relocate the Edit Icon:
- Move the edit icon to the left side of each row for quicker and easier access.
- Alternatively, position the edit icon above or below the redirect link in each row, ensuring it remains visible without requiring horizontal scrolling.
- Add a horizontal scrollbar at the top of the list for better navigation.
- Consider making the list table responsive by allowing wrapping or truncating of long redirect links with a tooltip or an option to expand for full visibility.
- Enhances user experience by removing the need for excessive scrolling.
- Saves time and effort for users managing multiple redirects.
- Reduces frustration caused by the current design, especially for users working with long links.

Hi, thanks for your report. The display of the table columns in the redirects overview table has been optimized for v13 with #104166. Long link paths are automatically wrapped into a new line in v13 using CSS, so that the editing buttons remain always accessible.
As far as I know, horizontal scrollbars are only placed at the bottom of a table in the system. With this in mind, I believe that placing another horizontal scroll bar at the top of the table would help make the redirect overview display stand out from the usual look and feel in the backend.
