1189471 - Firefox ESR page is orphaned

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: Information Architecture & UX, defect)

Description

[Kohei Yoshino [:kohei]]

I believe the ESR content is orphaned or obscure at least. It's still searchable, but many sysadmins don't know about ESR (like Bug 1181130 Comment 33).

Should we add a link to the Firefox family nav, under Developer Edition?

I think the ESR page will live the in the planned Release notes/Dev edition version of the family nav?

It certainly can live in the Developer-focused global navigation. We may want to discuss whether it's a main item in the navigation or in a tertiary "more links" menu. Knowing that it needs to be easier to find is good to know, so I'll consider it a requirement. Thanks!

Seems like a simple (short-term) solution would be to add a link in the tertiary "more links" menu in the family nav, like Holly suggests. I think it would make most sense to appear on the /firefox/desktop pages nav. 

Is this actionable now? (any reason we can't fix this)

Hi Alex, Jen and I spoke about this and decided to put this in the links area under 'Other Resources'. http://cl.ly/image/0Y3i0A2O341v   This area is displayed below the release notes content and above our mozilla.org footer.

Now that the release notes page redesign is out the door, let's fix this bug!
