643195 - [TRACKING] WN/FR pages - temporary change of sidebar links

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

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

Description

[Gregory Jost]

We need to change the sidebar links of the roll-back What's New / First Run page in certain locales to incorporate the Twitter Party and Facebook Badges.
Current roll-back WB/FR page url is: https://www-trunk.stage.mozilla.com/fr/firefox/4.0/firstrun/

The impacted locales are as follows:
DE - FR - ES - IT - PL

Once these campaigns are over, the links should be reverted to the initial community links.

Please see the sub-bugs attached to this one for specific instructions for each impacted locale.

Also, we may need to add tracking tags to these links. Do we need specific id's for each locale or one single tag? Laura F how do you want to deal with this?

I need the tracking parameters real fast now or I won't have time to do it, it's already past midnight here.

Append these to the ends of each unique URL:

www.example.com/?WT.mc_id=wn_1&WT.mc_ev=click
www.example.com/?WT.mc_id=wn_2&WT.mc_ev=click
www.example.com/?WT.mc_id=wn_3&WT.mc_ev=click
www.example.com/?WT.mc_id=wn_4&WT.mc_ev=click

Keep counting up if need >4 then let me know after the fact.

Upon further thought this requires custom tagging that can't be done in time for launch tomorrow.

Adding a bug for en-GB to get links to the social promos on the sidebar. Sorry for late notice but thought en-GB would use the same template as en-US.

Whenever you can is fine with me.

Comment 5

Pascal, we would like all the sidebar links to be reverted to their initial states for (or shortly before) the release of 4.0.1 on the 28th.

FYI, We're shooting for a April 26th launch (not 28th)

Comment 7

[Gregory Jost]

OK, looks like 4.0.1 has already been released or is currently being released (I have it already).


Let's revert the links as soon as possible then.

Comment 8

[Gregory Jost]

Ok, disregard this comment. Looks like this was just the 4.0.1 beta. Let's keep an objective of updating between the 22nd and 26th.

Can I revert it this week? I expect a busy week next week.

Comment 10

[Gregory Jost]

As late as possible this week will be fine. Thanks
