674916 - Join Mozilla: Create URL and redirect to BSD donation page for Fx t-shirt campaign

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(mozilla.org Graveyard :: Server Operations, task)

Description

[Ryan Merkley]

The Join Mozilla Firefox t-shirt campaign will use the URL mozilla.org/firefoxtshirt.

We are initially launching this in EN only, but it would be excellent to include the same l10n redirect functionality created for /join (see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=634709). 

The redirect should point to https://donate.mozilla.org/page/contribute/firefoxtshirt

Many thanks,
Ryan

We're maxing out the number of redirects we can reasonably maintain on www.mozilla.org without slowing down the site.  Is there a possibility to have this be a redirect at firefoxtshirt.mozilla.org instead?

Comment 2

[Ryan Merkley]

We can work with that. My proposal was based on my understanding of the website URL conventions -- happy to use an alternate if it makes the engine underneath the hood go faster.

Comment 3

[David Boswell]

Great.  For URL conventions, there's more leeway with redirects since there aren't real sites at those locations.

Comment 4

[David Boswell]

BTW, the component should be changed to Server Ops to set up the redirect.

Comment 5

[Ryan Merkley]

Noob question - I'm stumped on how to change this to Server Ops. Help appreciated.

Comment 6

[Ryan Merkley]

Thanks. The page is now live, so any help getting the redirect set up before Monday would be great.

Comment 7

[Ryan Merkley]

Anyone available to help with this today? We are waiting on this link to be able to push the campaign live. Many thanks in advance.

We want http://firefoxtshirt.mozilla.org/ -> 302 -> https://donate.mozilla.org/page/contribute/firefoxtshirt


Is that correct?

That's correct. Thank you.
