1119022 - Hello: zh-TW locale redirects to SUMO article

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: Pages & Content, defect)

Description

[Rebecca Billings [:rbillings]]

The zh-TW locale is fully translated*, however the page redirects users to SUMO. Even if it wasn't fully translated it should display in English, which is why this was filed under Pages & Content.

Clicking on this link:
https://www-demo2.allizom.org/zh-TW/firefox/hello/

Redirects users to this article:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/join-conversation-firefox-hello?redirectlocale=en-US&redirectslug=respond-firefox-hello-invitation-guest-mode

Hi, 


This happens because paths under /firefox/ were redirected to mozilla.com.tw,
and I followed the redirection settings here:
https://github.com/mozilla/bedrock/blob/master/etc/httpd/global.conf#L868-L869

I will merge the hello product page to mozilla.com.tw before 1/13 deployment on mozilla.org.
This way zh-TW users would see localized content.

Another way to do this is stop redirecting /firefox/hello/ to mozilla.com.tw.
But I'll still merge the hello product page anyway.

I'll see if I can open a PR to add an exception to the rewrite rule for both the Hello product page and the Hello FTE URL.
