943987 - Zone menu links are not translated

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(developer.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Design, defect)

Description

[John Karahalis [:openjck]]

STR:

1. Visit https://developer.mozilla.org/pl/
2. Hover over Zone menu links (Firefox, Firefox OS, etc.)


Actual:

Notice that all links point to /en-US documents


Expected:

All links should point to /pl documents


Other information:

This might just be due to the link destinations not being translated, but I notice that this holds true in every language. I have not seen any language with correct link destinations in the "Zone" menu.

Filing this bug just to keep our findings recorded. If it ends up being a Verbatim issue, we can mark it as invalid.

According to Verbatim /pl is 100% translated. So something else may in fact be going on here.

[Jean-Yves Perrier [:teoli]]

Quick question: how the zone menu links are generated? I mean: 1. are they hardcoded? 2. are they generated from the page titles?

In case 1., it may only means that they were not tagged as needing translation and can be a low-hanging fruit that can be done very quickly.

The links are added using devmo_url(), which is strangely used elsewhere without issue.

Just to be sure we're on the same page, this bug is about the link destinations, not the link text.
