Design/UX #22806
openMisleading menu options on homepage regarding profile and CV
0%
Description
I find the menu options for viewing/editing the profile/CV quite confusing and perhaps misleading.
On https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/, there's an option to "View/edit profile," but, actually, that only views the "profile." If you follow that link, there is no option to edit the "profile." Back on the homepage, there's also an option to "Edit CV." That, it would seem, edits the "profile." That option goes to https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/members/khatchad/edit-cv/. The "View/edit profile" option goes to https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/members/khatchad/. There, there's also an option to "Edit CV" (not profile), and that option also goes to https://commons.gc.cuny.edu/members/khatchad/edit-cv/.
What is then the difference between a profile and CV? May I suggest removing the "Edit CV" option and renaming "View/edit profile" to "View/edit CV"?

Hi Raffi, thanks for pointing this out. There's definitely room for improvement here, and we have a fix in the works at #22139 that should be live before too long.
Regarding the difference between a profile and a CV, we're talking about these two areas, which will be cleared up in the new links/language of that other ticket.
