Magento Admin Gamification

The Idea

The idea is to use gamification in the Magento backend to help to train admins who are new to using Magento with some kind of interactive tutorial along with earning points for doing things like updating their store address in system config and creating a new product, etc.

How Would It Work

Not totally sure, just a rough idea right now. But my thinking is - some combination of an interactive tutorial with points and badges earned for different actions.

1. Make something cool
2. Write stuff
3. Don't suck

Edit Content over the Frontend

Background

Content editing is always a little bit of a hassle. Sometimes your team might not know where a given piece of content exists - whether in CMS Pages, Static Blocks, Product content, or static HTML.

The Idea

Give admins the ability to edit content directly through the frontend via something like a blogger-style interface (you guys remember the blogger days, right?).

The Featuh's

• Load via AJAX after page load - only shows if the admin is viewing the page.

/*
 * Number of items in order
 * 
 * Useful to find out whether customers are buying a given product

// Drop this javascript in the page where your grid is - maybe using a .phtml
// in before_body_end or whatever.
var statuses = document.querySelectorAll(".admin-autoemail-adminhtml-rule-index td");
[].forEach.call(statuses, function (status) {
    if (status.textContent.indexOf("Inactive") > -1) {
        status.up('tr').style.color = "#aaa";
        status.up('tr').down('a').style.color = "#aaa";
    }
});
