1 minute 16 seconds  experience in SAP Blogs - The Best Run Businesses Run SAP

I went into another session and came back and I saw above screen.

This is what I see in Actions, no create available, you can see the picture of my avatar, so I assume I am logged in.

I opened a blog of someone else and found here a button to create a new blog, but I had not yet finished the headline and got the forbidden pop-up

Thanks Jürgen!

I left a comment in your blog, but write it here too:

If you click on your avatar, you will get a dropdown that has the most important links to your account, notifications, activity stream, logout and creating different content, e.g. write a blog post and ask a question.

This dropdown will be available on all 1DX sites, so you don't have to go to blogs.sap.com everytime you want to start a new blog post.

I'll get IT check the logout issues.

Thanks,

Gabi

I found the dropdown list, thanks, but is this really the only option to create new blogs?

When I am on blogs.sap.com  I do not see anywhere else a create option. Shouldn't this be in the Action section.

It was under the action button temporarily, while we did not have the avatar dropdown.

We can add it back to the action button too, but that's kind of a duplication. The amount of clicks you have to make is the same and on the same page. Do you think it would add value?

hmm, I probably had never  searched for a menu by clicking my avatar, now that I know I will not need to search again. From a UX point of view I do not not like at all those hidden gems, I am not a gamer, if there is a Action menu then I expect all actions there.

I have to agree with Jurgen. I think it makes sense to have "actions" related specifically to managing the account under the account avatar -- change password, update notification settings, that sort of thing. But for other actions, such as "create blog," "ask question," etc, those feel like "Actions," and since there is an "Actions" button that's where I would logically go to look for them.

I don't think they need to be duplicated, though. One place is enough.

Thanks for the feedback from both of you, I already forwarded it to our UX team.

Just one more comment for the action buttons:

the content of the action button depends on what page and content you are looking at. E.g. comments have their own action button that's only valid for that single comment. Blogs also. And the page header action button contains actions for WordPress/blogs in general, but no cross-page actions, so not from Answers because it is a different content type.


The reason why we have these action buttons is because if we just put links on the items, it would be too crowded and difficult to read/choose from (e.g. like today on a comment in Jive).


Examples:

SAP Blogs page header action (in the page header)

    • View My Posts
    • View My Comments
    • Moderation Service
    • Site Admin


SAP Blogs individual blog post actions (next to the blog post title)

    • Edit blog post
    • Move blog post to trash

SAP Blogs individual blog post page comments (on the comment):

    • Edit comment
    • Move comment to trash
