1637898 - Make hint concerning "no way back" for User Profile more prominent

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: Website, enhancement, P2)

Description

[Rainer Bielefeld]

IMHO information

This version makes changes to your profile that can't be reverted in case you want to go back to a previous version of SeaMonkey. You MUST absolutely do a full backup of your profile before trying SeaMonkey 2.53.2.

is much more important than

Automatic upgrades from previous versions are disabled for this release. Please download the full installer from the downloads section and install SeaMonkey 2.53.2 manually over the previous version.

Layout should reflect that.
Currently emphasis for both hints is equal, and even worse, "Automatic upgrades from ..." is the first of both.

Attachment: Change no way back wording

I've:

• changed the emphasis and order on the release notes pages
• add a line to the key points section of the downloads page
• changed the colouring of the two points on the news items

Not sure if we want to change the wording on the release notes pages to be:
a) different to each other
b) similar to the line on key points

and/or change the one on the key points.

2.53.1 to 2.53.2 is more or less harmless in most cases. Does not hurt to have a backup. For future versions we should maybe add a separate case for updates from 2.49.5 and previous.
