Joomla! 3.6 contains a lot of UX improvements. Now you can find your modules faster, have tasks done by dropdown, improved user management and so much more. Check all of the UX improvements in the full article. Let check it out:
Easier redirection- Choose which menu to redirect to after login
Now you can more easily choose how you want to redirect a user after they login – either selecting one of the available menu items or by adding a url directly like before.
Find your module faster! – Menu Item filter in module manager
New Menu Item Filter in the Module Manager allows for quickly finding modules assigned to a specific page.
Improved Module listing in Menu item view
Toggle between published and unpublished modules in the Menu Item Module Assignment tab.
New Dropdown tasks items
Until now there were simple published/unpublished icons in the tag and categories manager. Since Joomla! 3.6 you can find the same dropdown-toggle as the article manager to set different tasks.
