We'd like to offer users an easy way to sign up from about:home. The feedback we’ve received is that about:home needs to be white listed in order to allow access to the Accounts sign up page. Experience would work as follows: - User opens Firefox and about:home loads - User sees a snippet with an accounts call to action and clicks link to create an account - User is directed to Firefox Accounts page and begins the sign up process

This depends on bug 1035586 - there's already a "showFirefoxAccounts" UITour command from bug 998934 that should allow this.

Jared, per our conversation from IRC, I tried to verify the fix for this bug by adding a script element to the about:home page and calling Mozilla.UITour.showFirefoxAccounts() via dev tools, but I keep getting a reference error and the accounts snippet is not displayed. I also tried pretty much the same thing using Scratchpad, but again, with no success. Am I missing something? Or is there any other way QA can verify this?

We discussed this over IRC and Andrei got it figured out.

(In reply to Jared Wein [:jaws] (please needinfo? me) from comment #3) > We discussed this over IRC and Andrei got it figured out. Yeah, thanks again Jared for pointing me towards the right direction. This is now verified fixed on Nightly 34.0a1 (2014-07-31), by calling Mozilla.UITour.showFirefoxAccounts() directly from Web Console, which results in a redirection to about:accounts?action=signup. Platforms covered: Windows 7 64-bit, Mac OS X 10.9.4 and Ubuntu 13.04 32-bit.
