615307 - Take down main Donation page on mozilla.org and redirect to OWF page

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(www.mozilla.org :: General, defect)

Description

[Chelsea Novak [:chelsea]]

Mozilla Foundation has moved to a new donations system. The primary donation page for the foundation is now: https://donate.mozilla.org/page/contribute/openwebfund.

Mozilla projects now have new donation pages linked into this new donation system. Project owners, please update your donation links to the donation page link that corresponds with your project below. If your project site doesn't have a donations page, please add a donate link.

Accessibility: https://donate.mozilla.org/page/contribute/accessibility
Bugzilla: https://donate.mozilla.org/page/contribute/bugzilla
Calendar: https://donate.mozilla.org/page/contribute/calendar
Camino: https://donate.mozilla.org/page/contribute/camino
SeaMonkey: https://donate.mozilla.org/page/contribute/seamonkey

Project site owners, if you would like to talk about driving traffic to your project donation page, please contact me to talk about a plan. 

Dboswell: please take this page down (https://donate.mozilla.org/page/contribute/bugzilla) and redirect to (https://donate.mozilla.org/page/contribute/openwebfund)

Also, if you can please set up re-directs from your current donation pages to the new ones and take down the old donation pages that would be very helpful.

Having two donation systems is a nightmare for accounting. Thanks!

To clarify, I think this is in reference to the main donation page on mozilla.org instead of the Bugzilla donate page on donate.mozilla.org.

Yup... good catch. Sorry, wrong paste. :)

Comment 4

[David Boswell]

OK, redirect is up.

Comment 5

[Samuel Sidler (:ss)]

I, of course, fully appreciate that a Camino person was CCed to this bug about these new donation pages...

But uh, where do you want me to file bugs on the design, specifically of Camino's page? And are these supposed to be live and in use now? We (Camino) have no plans to link to these new pages until the design is fixed and I'm more than willing to file bugs on it.

Comment 6

[Chelsea Novak [:chelsea]]

I think most of the design fixes have been made (still sorting through the licensing issues of using META). Sam, can you let me know if there is anything else you need fixed aside from the font issue to get the page moved over?

Comment 7

[Samuel Sidler (:ss)]

We've decided not to move over. There are too many issues with the new page, not just design-wise. We like to have control over Camino-branded pages.

Comment 8

[Chelsea Novak [:chelsea]]

Can you please tell me what theses issues are? We were trying not to create additional work for you with the new system, which is why we did it for your initially. I think we can set you up with access to your donation page within the new system so you can have control over that page. 

Please let me know if that will work for you.

Sure. It supports using PHP includes from external sites, right?

Is there a reason we can't host this page on our site, over SSL and post to your form?

I don't think we can do that because that would entail transferring donor personal data and potentially credit card data. I'll double check and let you know.

I'm not all that well versed in SSL and security and all that (besides, you know, being on the security group until recently), but I'm fairly sure an SSL form can post to another SSL form. Which is to say, we'd host the form over SSL and post to your server, also over SSL. Of course, Reed will probably pop in and tell me this isn't actually possible, in which case, I'll retract my statement and my security group membership (oh wait, already did that).

Comment 12

[Samuel Sidler (:ss)]

(Reed told me comment 11 is possible. However, politics/policies may stand in the way. Don't worry, I'm pretty moderate, politically.)

Comment 13

[Chelsea Novak [:chelsea]]

This may well be possible, but we don't know if our service provider does any referrer checking on form submission which may complicate things.

Comment 14

[David Boswell]

Can this bug be closed?  We've redirected the main donation page on mozilla.org which was the goal for this bug originally, I believe.  Discussion about donation pages in general could be moved somewhere else perhaps?

Comment 15

[Chelsea Novak [:chelsea]]

I can open separate bugs for the other project pages if that works better for you. SeaMonkey is already done.

Comment 16

[Chelsea Novak [:chelsea]]

Opened in separate bugs.

Didn't file a bug for Camino has Sam stated in comment 7 that they will not move over. We will have to find some kind of alternative solution.
