Hint admins a workspace has to be set up in workspace module
Added by Tymoteusz Motylewski over 9 years ago.

Description
It would be great for user experience if it was posssible to create new workspace directly from workspace top menu, or from workspace admin panel.

- Status changed from New to Needs Feedback
I'm not sure if this is a great idea: sys_workspace records belong to pid 0 and are admin tasks only.
They are often complex to set up in real live with stages and users and groups. An admin will spend time on pid 0 anyway to get everything right. group setups are only editable on pid 0, too.
Having some special handling for the already rather complex workspace / toolbar module does not really sound solid to me and the workspace area is already cluttered with some functionality people don't know or use very seldom.
I'd thus tend to drop this feature request.
- Subject changed from create new workspaces from top menu and from workspace module to Hint admins a workspace has to be set up in workspace module
- Status changed from Needs Feedback to Accepted
Tymoteusz argues in private chat that admins do not know that they need to set up a sys_workspace record on pid 0 to get something going.
With #91983 applied, admins calling the ws-module receive a flash message 'please switch to a workspace'. This could be adapted for admins (not users) to tell 'please add a ws-record on pid 0' if there are none.
I'll adapt the title of this issue and will set it to accepted.
