Summary of Changes
Hello @fulleni, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!
I've made enhancements to the content management UI by simplifying the country and language selection processes in the headline and source creation/editing forms. The previous search-enabled dropdowns have been replaced with standard dropdowns that now feature an explicit 'Load More' option for fetching additional data. This change streamlines the user experience by removing the search input and provides a clearer mechanism for handling paginated lists of countries and languages, along with corresponding backend logic cleanup.
Highlights
- Simplified Dropdown Interactions: I have removed the search functionality from the country and language selection dropdowns across the 'Create Headline', 'Edit Headline', 'Create Source', and 'Edit Source' forms. This simplifies the interaction by removing the search input field.
- UI Component Migration: The UI components for country and language selection have been migrated from
SearchableDropdownFormFieldto standardDropdownButtonFormField. This change aligns with the removal of the search feature and provides a more direct selection experience. - Explicit Pagination in Dropdowns: Instead of search-driven loading, I've implemented an explicit 'Load More' option within the dropdowns. This allows users to manually fetch additional paginated data when needed, providing clear control over data loading.
- BLoC Logic Refactoring: The corresponding BLoC (Business Logic Component) events, state properties, and methods related to country and language search terms have been removed. This cleans up the BLoC logic, making it more streamlined and focused on the new pagination approach.

Code Review
This pull request refactors several UI components by replacing the custom SearchableDropdownFormField with the standard DropdownButtonFormField. This removes the search capability from these dropdowns across various content creation and editing screens. While this simplifies the implementation, the new approach for handling pagination ('Load More') within the dropdowns is non-functional due to a known issue with onTap on DropdownMenuItem in Flutter. This is a significant functional regression that needs to be addressed.
