Jetpack: Jetpack Manage: skip "Jetpack Manage Enabled" confirmation

Created on 5 Feb 2018 · 5Comments · Source: Automattic/jetpack

_"Jetpack Manage Enabled"_ confirmation message feels like an extra step we could skip to make following flow more enjoyable —

I want to adjust security settings, so I go to the tab in Calypso...

Yes...

Confirmation @ wp-admin...

Confirmation confirmed @ wp-admin...

...only then:

Could be the message could be less repetitive?
Could be there's a way to take at least last confirmation away? Since we started at Calypso, we could just redirect to Calypso at this point.
Even better if we can remotely activate this without ever leaving Calypso.
Maybe we could just toggle that module on remotely, even without questions?
As a DIY customer I'm missing a "more info"-balloon at first step that would explain to me what is going to happen and why I have to do this.

@simison I'm curious how you managed to get that flow ;)

Manage is basically hard-coded as an automatic activated module for new sites and sites that have updated from older versions. Was it for a brand new site? Or a site that had filtered manage out?

👍 #7114 should tackle that.

That's the idea, yes. That's also what we do for most users today.

Oh, I wish I would've written that down! My flow-notetaking-FU wasn't very good yet then. :-)

It's either brand new Ninja-site _or_ older (~3y) site which is a subfolder install and no file permissions for WP to modify files. Probably latter, then!

This seems like a few issues combined, but at the root, I think skipping the success screen makes a ton of sense.

Let's try:

Making activation work from Calypso if possible
Removing the confirmation screen
Replacing the confirmation screen with a global notice: "Jetpack Manage is now enabled"
Change the view to load the view the user was originally trying to access
