730102 - redirect store.mozilla.org to marketplace.mozilla.org

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

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

Description

[John Slater]

The Mozilla Store based at store.mozilla.org is no longer in active use, but the fact that it's still live and titled Mozilla Marketplace has the potential to cause a lot of confusion as we launch the apps store...aka Mozilla Marketplace.

So, can you please redirect that URL to mozilla.org for now? Apologies for yet another rush request, but we need this change made as soon as possible...definitely before MWC this weekend.

THANKS

I suspect this is an IT request

Comment 2

[James Long (:jlongster)]

Yes, this is an IT issue.

This is completed.

Comment 4

[John Slater]

Thank you VERY much for the quick work on this. Really appreciated!

Should we redirect this now to marketplace.mozilla.org now that the site is live and MWC is about passed?

Comment 6

[Wil Clouser [:clouserw]]

As an end user, wouldn't that be like me wanting to buy a t-shirt and showing up at some developer preview about apps?

Comment 7

[Jane Finette]

The redirect should go to: marketplace.mozilla.org

Will - the Foundation are removing that page entirely soon, so it should be fine.

[John Slater]

Jane beat me to it, but yes, that's right. We're moving away from hosting ecommerce stores, so ultimately this is the right place to point that URL.

Comment 9

[Chris More [:cmore]]

Wil: Just make an Marketplace app to purchase t-shirts and you'll be fine. ;)
