Image jump

When switching between Decision Makers and Developers, the image beside the copy jumps up and down. We'd like it to remain in place and just have the copy change.

Table styles are missing (from blog posts)

See the table in this article as an example.

iOS contact form font issue

Only affects iOS. The "message" floating label on the contact form has a weird visual artifact. See attached.

Firefox 50/50 module issue.

This only affects firefox, but the homepage 50/50 modules overflow onto the next row (screenshot attached).

This appears to be only when the image is using the 2X version.

Community logos cropped on Mobile

Savings calculator redesign

The fact that Solidus is free is not, by itself, a selling point.

The selling point and the advantage we have over other platforms is that, instead of spending 2% of your annual revenue just to keep your website online, you can make it a part of your development budget and spend it on actively improving the website, or not use it on development and spend it on your product instead.

This should be reflected in the savings calculator in our home page. Rather than simply stating that Solidus is "Free forever", we should make an educated guess at how many full-time developers one could afford with the money Solidus allows you to save.

Should I use Solidus? page

I think we do a pretty good job of answering this question when new people join Slack, but it would be nice to have a document to point to.

Link to "Solidus paperclip" extension should be removed

solidus_paperclip is not an extension yet. paperclip is still integrated in Solidus core.

The link just links to the Stembolt fork of thoughtbot/paperclip.

Fonts are not displayed correctly (returning 404)

Probably is an error related to Typekit.

Broken link on marketplace page

The brand link to Etho on https://solidus.io/use-cases/marketplace/ no longer works.

Spacing Issue on features list

In the features list on the homepage, there is more spacing above each line of copy than below (see screenshot).

Note: This also happens in "Don't reinvent the wheel" section.

Github widget in header appears with inconsistent styles

(This issue has changed slightly since posting - see comment below)

On blog posts, the github widget in the header doesn't appear, instead we just get text that says "Star" - see below, blog index page vs. blog show page. As far as I can tell this only happens on the blog show page.

Supported versions page?

I found it hard to find what versions are supported and when the EOL is, found it under /security.

Thinking about how to solve this best, but wanted to open a ticket around it for any input.

Review & post code of conduct for SolidusConf 2020

Make sure the code of conduct is relevant for this digital conference, and post it on the conference website.

Use GitHub commit image if GitHub API is down

On the developers page, we should default to the GitHub commit image if for whatever reason we can't get a good response from the GitHub API. The image is currently located at source/assets/images/github.png.

This is a minor issue, but it would be good to have a fallback. Otherwise, an empty element will render, which doesn't look amazing.

Some images need higher resolution versions

On a hi-dpi screen (like a 5K iMac), the cards.png on the "Features" page is very clearly a 900 pixel wide image.

The GitHub springboard image on the "Developers" page is also very pixelly.

If it's possible to export a higher res version of these, that would be excellent.

Screenshot belows. View them at full size to see what I mean.

Disable content fade on mobile

Some of the sections on mobile don't play nice with the content fade-in. This is a really nice touch on desktop, but I think we can safely disable it on mobile and opt for a slightly less flashy experience.

Improve contributors widget reliability

Sometimes the widget is not created correctly (too few collaborators). I think it's because we hit the GraphQL GitHub rate limit.

We should investigate and fix it!

Accordions not working in mobile

At https://solidus.io/features/ on mobile you can only view the 'Product' section and not the others (Flexibility, Payment, Shipping, Customers, Analytics), attached the error in console, seems like jQuery is acting up

Annual Sales widget accrues visual artefacts after dragging the slider around

See the left side of of annual numbers (i.e. $20,000,000) in attached .mov.

Remove Github issues image on mobile

On mobile the github image on /developers ends up being kind of useless because it's too difficult to see anything. Let's keep it on desktop and tablet but hide on mobile.

Style the Blog

Markup, class names, styles, etc

Table rendering broke

I was looking (similarly to @peterberkenbosch in #288) for the supported version info and noticed the table in the blog post describing it is no longer being rendered properly:

Dropdown menu bug on Safari

Bug reported by a Safari user, but I can't replicate it.

Link to Stack Overflow in Community page CTA

Since we want to encourage the community to ask questions on Stack Overflow rather than Slack, we should probably link to Stack Overflow in this CTA:

We could also include both, but I'd rather default to Stack Overflow and then keep the Slack link in the footer and modal.

Lost my name rebranded

For whoever has time, we reference lost my name at least once in the footer of the site. We should change it to wonderbly as well as any links pointing to it.

Space between paragraphs on the blog is large and makes paragraphs seem disconnected

Space between paragraphs should be between 50% and 100% of the body text's line height for readability. On the Solidus blog, they seem much larger than this.

This might seem nerdy but I think it actually impedes readability.

Update the Community hero "wheel" with the new member picture

Add the profile picture of the new member on the Community hero "wheel".
(It will appear, like the others, with a css animation).

Mobile Landscape nav

The mobile navigation when in landscape view, cuts off the bottom navigation elements.

We're going to have to shrink the font size and padding in order to fit them all.

Allow HTML markup in GitHub commit message

There is currently no formatting done on GitHub commit messages on the developers page; whatever we get from the GitHub API is shoved in. This is a problem when commit messages contain HTML tags, as the browser interprets them as such.

<title> tags need to be SEO'd

Right now, we are probably losing audience just because our titles are nonexistant. If you navigate around the site you'll see titles like "Home", "Developers" and so on that provide no context for the site.
