Problem/Motivation

The "STATUS" column (on the page Admin UI - Subscribers) in the table is really confusing.

Proposed resolution

It needs to be ranamed to Active and yes-no should be renamed to true-false.

Remaining tasks

User interface changes

Change the texts.

API changes

I renamed this column.

If we want to rename Status to Active, then it is not just this place, but also when editing a subscriber, for example, which leads back to the Field definition.

Hm. We renamed the Status here to active, because then the subscription status can be reduced to "Status".
So the origin was to improve the UX of the overview UI.

The only thing i know for sure was that "Subscriber status" and "Subscription status" was not satisfying as neither exposed filters nor column headings.. ;-)

The form to add a new subscriber already has a label "Active" for this.

I would fix the overview and discuss the consistent major renaming in a followup.. :-?

Ah and... status... :-)

Right, the form already uses active, because we never replaced that with a widget. Ok, separate task for that is fine with me then.

That said, I am not convinced that true/false is better than yes-no, if possible, I would prefer to have yes/no in both cases? boolean is too technical for users, no?

Also, I thought we used the utf8 symbols there, just like we do on the newsletter view?

Using UTF-8 cross/check symbols is a nice resolution.
Can this be switched similarly in the exposed form?
I just quickly thought that an exposed form with the UTF-8 characters cross/check dropdown feels unusual. :-)

Yes, I agree on the comment about yes-no being the better solution for the common users. Should I change it?

Updated the column with cross/check symbols as suggested.
