It would be really nice to have a link back to the main bugzilla.mozilla.org web page from the Bugzilla bugs page. Since there's no obviousl link, I always have the impulse to click the Mozilla.org banner at the top of the page, which obviously takes me back to www.mozilla.org...
Sean: what page are you talking about? You did not specify a URL, and the only page I can think of that fits your description (http://www.mozilla.org/bugs/) has two links to bugzilla.mozilla.org within the first two paragraphs.
I'm talking about virtually every page on http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/. This one (http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=103794), for example. There's a link to /query.cgi, /enter_bug.cgi, /reports.cgi, /showvotes.cgi, http://www.mozilla.org, etc., but no link back to / (http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/).
ok, in that case, this is a Bugzilla bug, and not something specific to bugzilla.mozilla.org, since other than the main bugzilla.mozilla.org page itself, the rest is all generated by the software.

Added <A> tag to link the "Bugzilla version x.xx" at the top of every page
Summary: No link to http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/ on bug pages → No link to urlbase on bug footer
We are currently trying to wrap up Bugzilla 2.16. We are now close enough to release time that anything that wasn't already ranked at P1 isn't going to make the cut. Thus this is being retargetted at 2.18. If you strongly disagree with this retargetting, please comment, however, be aware that we only have about 2 weeks left to review and test anything at this point, and we intend to devote this time to the remaining bugs that were designated as release blockers.
Target Milestone: Bugzilla 2.16 → Bugzilla 2.18
Comment on attachment 56365 [details] [diff] [review] Proposed link added needs-work because its not templatised. We don't have that versoin text there any more (as a side issue; why not? the version number in the table header is a default) Maybe linkify the "This is Bugzilla" at the bottom of the page? We already link to bugzilla.org in the footer; do we still want this?

The User Interface component now belongs to Gerv. Reassigning all UNCONFIRMED and NEW (but not ASSIGNED) bugs currently owned by Myk (the previous component owner) to Gerv.

Reassigning back to Myk. That stuff about Gerv taking over the User Interface component turned out to be short-lived. Please pardon our confusion, and I'm very sorry about the spam.
Assignee: gerv → myk
This is a valid bug; we should have a link to the Bugzilla home page somewhere. I'm loath to add it to the footer for space reasons, but that'll change with Gerv's redesign of the footer in bug 232338.

Bugzilla 2.20 feature set is now frozen as of 15 Sept 2004. Anything flagged enhancement that hasn't already landed is being pushed out. If this bug is otherwise ready to land, we'll handle it on a case-by-case basis, please set the blocking2.20 flag to '?' if you think it qualifies.
Target Milestone: Bugzilla 2.20 → Bugzilla 2.22
How complicated can this be?
(In reply to comment #17) > How complicated can this be? Probably easy enough that you could write a patch for it. Go for it ;) Hint: affected file is template/en/default/global/useful-links.html.tmpl

This is such a small and low-risk change that I think it's worth getting into 2.18 as well for the sake of keeping the trunk and branch more in sync, although it's not a blocker.

Could someone check this in for me please?
Hmm, taking another look, shouldn't this be pointing to index.cgi rather than urlbase?
(In reply to comment #23) > Hmm, taking another look, shouldn't this be pointing to index.cgi rather than > urlbase? But how can we tell it is index.cgi, and not index.html, or some other home page the admin has configured as a default page? What do you think is wrong with just using urlbase?
why not use href="./" ? We have no subdirectories containing cgis that dump templates, and if we ever do, lots of things will have to be fixed to support it anyway.
Good point. Ok, checked in to 2.18 branch and trunk: Checking in template/en/default/global/useful-links.html.tmpl; /cvsroot/mozilla/webtools/bugzilla/template/en/default/global/useful-links.html.tmpl,v <-- useful-links.html.tmpl new revision: 1.32; previous revision: 1.31 done Checking in ../bz218/template/en/default/global/useful-links.html.tmpl; /cvsroot/mozilla/webtools/bugzilla/template/en/default/global/useful-links.html.tmpl,v <-- useful-links.html.tmpl new revision: 1.27.2.1; previous revision: 1.27 done
