Feature: #79445 - Add Multistep Wizard

See forge#79445

Description

Based on a concept - which has been created during the TYPO3 UX week - a new JavaScript module MultiStepWizard has been introduced.

Compared to the existing Wizard - which is currently in use e.g. when translating content or creating a new form - the following changes have been implemented:

  • Navigation to previous steps is possible.
  • Instead of labeling steps with just a numerical indicator (like "Step x of y") steps can have descriptive labels like "Start" or "Finish!".
  • The structure of the configuration has been optimized.

Code examples:

// Show/ hide the wizard
MultiStepWizard.show();
MultiStepWizard.dismiss();

// Add a slide to the wizard
MultiStepWizard.addSlide(
    identifier,
    stepTitle,
    content,
    severity,
    progressBarTitle,
    function() {
    ...
    }
);

// Lock/ unlock navigation buttons
MultiStepWizard.lockNextStep();
MultiStepWizard.unlockNextStep();
MultiStepWizard.lockPrevStep();
MultiStepWizard.unlockPrevStep();
Copied!

Impact

Developers can provide editors with a vastly enhanced wizard. The UI and UX of the wizard have been improved big time.
