550259 - Deploy new Store pages

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Infrastructure & Operations Graveyard :: WebOps: Other, task)

Description

[David Boswell]

We have the new Store landing pages ready to go and I'd like to update the current redirects at store.mozilla.org to point to the following pages.

Landing page for non-US and Canadian users
http://store.stage.mozilla.com/

Landing page for US and Canadian users
http://store.stage.mozilla.com/index_us.html

Currently, I believe people in US and Canada that go to store.mozilla.org are taken to the Community Store and people outside of North America are taken to the International Store.  The new flow should be that store.mozilla.org takes you to one of these two new pages depending on location and people can then click to go to a given store.

Note that the notice and FAQ content from the current store.mozilla.org site has been copied over to the staging site at the same URLs

http://store.stage.mozilla.com/notice
http://store.stage.mozilla.com/faq

I don't think there is any other existing content to copy over, but please correct me if I'm wrong.

David, 

I'm sorry, but we don't usually point production URLs (store.mozilla.org) to non-production sites (store.stage.mozilla.com)

Would you like us to host this on production machines and then make the changes you requested? 

Also, is the new site completely static, does it have a database or something?

[David Boswell]

Apologies if this wasn't clear initially, but the pages on the stage site should become the new store.mozilla.org site.  Please move this to production and then make the changes.

The site is completely static right now, although it's possible we'll add a database in the future if that matters for how things are set up on your end now.

Just pinging to see if there's an estimate for when this change might happen and if there's any additional information I could provide.

David,

I'll have this up before the week is out for sure.

I lied! 

But the site is now live. 

I ran into some issues doing the redirects for US and non US users, so that's not in place yet. I'll close the bug once that is in and working.

Thanks for getting the new page live.

Is there an estimate for when the redirects will be in place?  Right now US and Canadian users are getting pointed to a store where they can't buy anything and that might cause some confusion.

I slept on this, apologies.

Thanks to mrz who figured out the rules, they're in place now, and should work fine.

Great, thanks.  I tested this in the US and saw the right page and Gerv tested in England and saw the right page too.
