2012643 - The Sign In widget on the Mozilla account page includes confusing strings

Status: RESOLVED MOVED

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

Description

[Denys:denyshon]

For users who are not signed in, the widget on https://www.mozilla.org/account/ looks somewhat confusing:

• It's called Sign In.
• A string at the bottom says: Already have an account? Sign In.
• The Sign In link from the string mentioned above redirects to https://accounts.firefox.com/, where you can both sign in and sign up (with no special flow for signing in).
• When entering an email not associated with an account into the widget input field, the sign-up workflow is triggered.

To address the above, I suggest renaming the widget (e.g., Sign In or Sign Up) and removing the "Already have an account?" string.

@denys here's a good example of a bug that would be better opened in GH because our UX designer doesn't get BZ notifications. If you open it there, I'll tag her internally to look at it
