466291 - Revise the What's New redirect

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Mozilla Messaging Graveyard :: Server Operations, defect, P1)

Description

[Mark Banner (:standard8)]

I've just pushed a nightly what's new page to the production server for bug 464784. We now need to re-adjust the redirects for the website to compensate before we check in the rest of that bug.

The current redirect is from:

http://live.mozillamessaging.com/%APP%/whatsnew?locale=%LOCALE%&version=%VERSION%&os=%OS%&buildid=%APPBUILDID%

to:

http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/nightly/start/

This now needs to redirect to:

http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/nightly/whatsnew/


Simple change, but consider this a TB 3b1 blocker.

Oh I forgot to say, this redirect should be the default, catch-all. We'll sort out a b1 specific redirect later.

Done.
