1371966 - [Meta] Review & fix new breakages to Lithium such as navigation issues, that occurred whilst rolled back

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(support.mozilla.org - Lithium :: General, enhancement)

Description

[John Hesling [:John99] (NeedInfo me)]

Several changes have been made to Sumo Lithium whilst rolled back and it may now be seen at  https://hwsfp35778.lithium.com/ (Bug 1359241) that it has problems. Some problems currently make it close to unusable by contributors.

I would like this to block Bug 1358378 but not my decision to make so I will only use see also.

There are contributors discussion threads on this. Those discussions and support solutions will be lost to Lithium on rollforward, but there may be a temporary static copy of Kitsune that MAY retain the data. XXXX

= Dozens of Missing KB articles =
>When changing Sumo Lithium are we testing, to ensure the change does not break things (e.g., KB articles AWOL)?

Joni filed Bug 1370572  
It is not yet clear to me if the articles will need to be recreated, or if they may merely have been moved ad can be easily moved back. Potentially a follow up bug may be necessary to recreate the articles.

= Contributors Navigation links and menus missing =
* It now seems impossible to post support questions.  (Bug 1371964)
* The contributors drop down menu has disappeared.   (Bug 1371965)
* The PM inbox link has also gone awol

Would it be better to have a strict policy of testing on stage, advising contributors of changes and providing an explanation before proceeding to make any change on Prod.
