Inline Plugin Updates – no way to see error messages
-
The improved inline Shiny Plugin updates is great, but there is a severe usability regression in my opinion.
Since Shiny Updates were first introduced, any errors are essentially hidden from the user, but at least in previous versions they could ‘bulk update’ by checking the checkbox next to the plugin and selecting Update from the dropdown menu. This would lead to the full screen update where any errors would be clearly displayed and thus could be acted upon.
In version 4.6, bulk updates are now also performed inline via AJAX. That makes sense, but there is now no way to obtain detailed error messages where ‘plugin update failed’. This is a support nightmare!
