Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(developer.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Wiki pages, defect)

Description

[Trevor]

This page states that is is old and should be showing https://developer-new.mozilla.org/en-US instead.

Comment 1

[John Karahalis [:openjck]]

Thanks for reporting this, Trevor.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Can you give an example of a page that links to developer-new?

Comment 2

[Trevor]

When using developer-new, on this page, for example:
https://developer-new.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/DOM/HTMLMediaElement
Click on the MDN breadcrumb and it takes you to:
https://developer-new.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/en
When it should take you to:
https://developer-new.mozilla.org/en-US

[John Karahalis [:openjck]]

Very good catch. I will be sure the development team looks at this. Thank you, Trevor.

Comment 4

[Les Orchard [:lorchard]]

This actually links to the same page, migrated over, that gets linked from current prod mindtouch. There's actually an "en" page.

Comment 5

[Les Orchard [:lorchard]]

Maybe the /en page needs to be edited and made into a redirect to /en-US?

Comment 6

[John Karahalis [:openjck]]

Sheppy: This should take the user to the base developer.mozilla.org/en-US page.

Comment 7

[Eric Shepherd [:sheppy]]

I have no idea how to do this; the old #REDIRECT [/en-US] syntax doesn't work...

Comment 8

[Les Orchard [:lorchard]]

Yeah, the redirect syntax has changed: https://developer.mozilla.org/Project:en/Getting_started_with_Kuma#Things_that_work_differently

It looks like this now:
REDIRECT <a class="redirect" href="%(href)s">%(title)s</a>

Do we have a WYSIWYG button for this?

[David Walsh :davidwalsh]

We do not presently, no

Comment 11

[John Karahalis [:openjck]]

Cool. I'll open a bug for that. Probably not a launch priority, but the syntax does seem a little tricky to remember.

Comment 12

[Eric Shepherd [:sheppy]]

Looks like someone fixed this, so...
