Thread:Project:Support desk/Suggestion: AJAX Login

When a several pages of MediaWiki are opened and you log in using one of them, the rest won't be updated unless you refresh (that doesn't harms editing, but can still be a bit annoying), so my suggestion is to update the page when the window/tab turns visible to the user.

Another nice feature to the login can be that the login will not force moving to another page, but to open a little box at the same page. Again, it will be done using AJAX. That will of course remove the need in a special page in order to perform this action.

And about the star icon (watchlist) appears on the wiki pages - in case when you will open two tabs of the same page and will add it to the watchlist in one, if you'll try to do it on the second window - it will do it as it was done at the first time and won't alert it was already added to the watchlist or update the icon. The same after adding to watchlist, going to another page on the same window, and pressing the back button - the star will appear blank until refreshing or pressing it.
