1360126 - sync: Missing or duplicate items? link does nothing when iframed in mozilla.org

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Cloud Services :: Server: Firefox Accounts, defect)

Description

[Nicola Manini]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:45.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/45.0
Build ID: 20170307221322

Steps to reproduce:

Entered https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/accounts/ and was correctly recognized.
Could navigate the tabs all right.



Actual results:

But after opening the tab 
"Devices & apps", the link "Missing or duplicate items?" would not work. I clicked and waited for minutes.  Clicked again... No effect, just nothing


Expected results:

That link is supposed to allow one to change the list of synced devices/applications.
I find this a grave functionality bug of the sync feature.

When you view the device list via https://accounts.firefox.com, clicking that link replaces the tab with https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fxa-managing-devices. However, when viewed via https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/accounts/, the account info is in an iframe, which I suspect is the root of the problem. Ryan and Alex may have more insights into what is expected to happen in this case.
