blogdotmozilladotorg's Issues

Menu bug on mozilla blog

I was visiting the blog to test out the navigation and I managed to find a bug whereby the categories menu becomes impossible to open (tested in FF Nightly):

blog-bug

STR:

  1. Visit https://blog.mozilla.org/ on a desktop browser.
  2. Resize the window down to mobile viewport size.
  3. Resize the window back to desktop size.
  4. Click the "Categories" link in the sub navigation.

Expected results:

The menu should open.

Actual results:

The menu opens briefly, but then immediately closes again. Only refreshing the page seems to fix it.

This isn't related to www, so we should probably move this issue to https://github.com/mozilla/blogdotmozilladotorg/ (I tried to transfer but don't have perms for that repo).

Decommission theglassroomnyc.org

The Glass Room NYC event ended in early 2017 and the site has been online with no updates since then. But it's a big, clunky WordPress site that relies on a premium (non-free) theme and several complex, non-free plugins which incurs some small overhead to keep the site up.

Since the event is long past and the site inactive, we're going to shut it down and redirect the domain to this blog post: https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2016/11/28/the-glass-room-looking-into-your-online-life/ which we can update in turn with links to theglassroom.org, a more permanent site owned and managed by Tactical Tech.

Once the site is decommissioned and redirecting we can permanently disable and delete the various themes and plugins it relies on which aren't in use by any other blogs.

Title contrast issues on berlin blog theme

I noticed a few different posts on the Mozilla Berlin blog have colour contrast issues, due to the white heading in the top hero section being positioned over the top of hero images.

URLs & screenshots below:

screenshot_2019-02-12 verandert das internet unsere liebe mozilla podcast about web

A quick fix would be to choose different background images for these posts, however this kind of issue is likely to keep coming up given the current design. A better fix may be to tweak the header design so that the title can work on top of any background colour.

CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md file missing

As of January 1 2019, Mozilla requires that all GitHub projects include this CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md file in the project root. The file has two parts:

  1. Required Text - All text under the headings Community Participation Guidelines and How to Report, are required, and should not be altered.
  2. Optional Text - The Project Specific Etiquette heading provides a space to speak more specifically about ways people can work effectively and inclusively together. Some examples of those can be found on the Firefox Debugger project, and Common Voice. (The optional part is commented out in the raw template file, and will not be visible until you modify and uncomment that part.)

If you have any questions about this file, or Code of Conduct policies and procedures, please see Mozilla-GitHub-Standards or email [email protected].

Bug
https://trello.com/c/dfZ54iZZ

Driving Insight: We believe that a custom content block added to the Wordpress parent blog theme that allows blog editors to add call-out content that is distinct from the body content would help users find more content that is relevant to their needs.

Hypothesis: If we provide designed promo blocks within the body we will see a lift in download conversions because the CTA will be more apparent to the reader. If we keep high-performing content

  • Automated cross-posting of all Firefox Frontier blogs is enabled

Tasks

  • Configure for cross-posting blogs from Firefox Frontier blog (WP) to https://medium.com/@firefox

Redirecting blog post to www

The last month we run a test to check if the same content of https://blog.mozilla.org/firefox/firefox-64-default-64-bit-windows/ would perform better on www. We set a canonical to www but Google did not pick it up. Nonetheless, the page on www started ranking for similar keywords and has a way higher conversion rate: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DXXcfBLjIidNi5ETqOhdA7h64SU5OGXxydJHTegOylI/edit#gid=490387227

Therefore we want to redirect 301 https://blog.mozilla.org/firefox/firefox-64-default-64-bit-windows/ to https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/windows-64-bit/ so all rankings of the blogpost are picked up by the page on www and we get a maximised conversion rate.

As the article is en-US only right now the redirect should go to the locale /en-US/ on www as well and not to the locale free redirect.

  • redirect blogpost 301 to the page on www

These were made as the result of a recent automated defacement of publically writeable wikis.

Hacks blog needs DNT on GA

@craigcook made some theme changes on the Hacks blog that revealed some incompatibility between analytics.js on that blog and our DNT detection code.

We need to debug this and get DNT working on Hacks.

URLs without a locale should redirect

Currently both of the URLs below render the same content:

Unless we're really consistent in how we link to articles, this could create duplicate content in the eyes of a crawler. I do see a canonical URL set which is good, but we should probably still redirect pages without a locale to /en/.

Content width is too wide for optimal readability.

Max-line length for readability is recommended to be between 50 and 70 characters per line. The current line length is a bit longer than that. It would be great if the content was slightly narrower.

This screen shot shows where 70 characters per line would fall:
