[PATCH] Fix slide images for older browsers
by Ian Weller 30 Oct '10

30 Oct '10

Looks like the reason that slides 2 and 3 aren't working is because of the gradients that were added in the 27th (according to git blame) but weren't tested well enough. This patch definitely fixes older browsers, but I don't know if the gradient still happens on gecko/webkit, so please test if you're actually running an up-to-date version of Fedora (I'm not). I can push this if I get a few people saying that the gradient still works in new stuff. The alternative is to revert that commit (c7f030a1). -- Ian Weller <ian(a)ianweller.org> Where open source multiplies: http://opensource.com

new site fonts
by Allegretti, Robert [Global Bay] 30 Oct '10

30 Oct '10

Some of the fonts on the latest site look pretty bad in Firefox. Sample screens attached. I'm on Windows7 x64, I have a few Firefox add-ons but nothing weird, and nothing that should effect fonts. It looks fine in IE. Hit me back if there's any other info I can provide that might be helpful.

If you could tell us what browser you are using, the version, and send us a screenshot of the issue you're seeing it would be very helpful!

Go back to the old site, at least for now
by Nadim Kobeissi 30 Oct '10

30 Oct '10

Dear webmaster, You need to seriously consider reverting to the old website. The new one is buggy, incomplete, disfunctional, and just not well done. The old one was much more to the point, serious and well-designed. It just needed better navigation and content. You are making a big mistake with this website, and should take it down at least until it is noticeably improved. Have you even seen the site under the latest version of Google Chrome (not Chromium)? Check this out for size: https://uloadr.com/u/tcu.jpg I'm sorry if I'm being a bit too critical, but I assure you I am completely well-intentioned. I implore you to take my request seriously. NK

Font problem on new look website
by Stuart Green 30 Oct '10

30 Oct '10

Hi, Just to say, I love the new look of the website, but when viewing from work (Windows XP/Firefox 3), the font rendering of the custom fonts in your CSS stylesheet looks rather odd. Please see attached screenshot. The site looks fine in IE 8 though.

[patch] POT update is very close :). Please, check it
by Kévin Raymond 29 Oct '10

29 Oct '10

Hi there, I've marked all strings as translatable. I could have missed some of them, please check it. I have not updated the wrong link from the index (the counter one, which is pointing to "get-fedora"). Please, add other changes that would affect the POT update, before applying my patch. (it is a MAJOR update... adding 350 strings!!!) * That's the second reason why I haven't already applied it (even without updating the pot file) * The first reason is that, by checking my local build, I get some tag diplayed instead of interpreted. It is really late for me (3 am), That would be nice if you can find what I've done wrong. hints: check using/tutorials/cheese.html (the "strong" tags are displayed, even if the source code is correct). It could be a typo. how, my patch. There it is: http://shaiton.fedorapeople.org/web/0001-interview-and-tutorials-marked-as-… Cheers, and my apologies for having this small issue -- Kévin Raymond GPG-Key: A5BCB3A2

Website bug rundown day 1
by Máirín Duffy 29 Oct '10

29 Oct '10

Hi folks, Here's the bugs I've seen reported here, on identi.ca, or on IRC. Let me know if you're aware of any others. We should probably set up another wiki page. :) AFAIK only one has a ticket. By the way, thanks to everyone reporting the issues they see. Keep them coming if you've got them - please try to note your web browser, version number, screen resolution, and anything else that might be appropriate. For visual bugs, screenshots are extremely helpful. Open • First page load, slideshow 'throws up' over screen. Shift+reload appears to resolve the issue. Not sure why though. Cached CSS? • Zoom in at 5x - download button on front page slide disappears • Turn off JS - weird things happen https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-websites/ticket/30 • Green on the downloads pages is too intense green (mattl on identi.ca) • More spacing on main navbar would be nice if possible (mattl on identi.ca) • Typo on get fedora > by format: s/by formats/by format • Fedoracommunity.org didn't launch, link to it points to plain index.html • On the front page [1] displays only English version of countdown banner (regardless of the language selected), here [2] everything is fine. (Alexander Smirnov) • from dbs on identi.ca @fabsh New fedoraproject.org site looks weird on Chromium on Fedora 13 64-bit for me; fine with Firefox though. http://imgur.com/mhqjq.png • identica: @qu1j0t3 ..... http://fedoraproject.org/en/about... // great start, but too text heavy. refactor • '¿' character for es is mirrored for some bizarre reason - noticeable on the front page. A bug with Cantarell? Appears to work fine with Comfortaa. • Misc Windows issues, documented here: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/websites/2010-October/008716.html Difficult to reproduce • slideshow images not loading at all for Gurhan Ozen, mizmo will try to reproduce with him Resolved • notting ran into a weird issue where the title on the first slide was rendering much too small. it turned out to be client-side CSS he didn' t know about - removing it fixed the issue Future Work Suggestinon • would be nice to update wiki skin to match new www.fpo • better panda for 404 Thanks, ~m

Website fonts ugly and difficult to read in Chrome on Windows 7
by slubman 29 Oct '10

29 Oct '10

Hello, The fonts for some of the text are difficult to read in Chrome running on Windows 7. Below, you'll find 3 screen-shots of what I'm talking about. https://www.strongspace.com/slubman/public/fedoraproject-font-000.png https://www.strongspace.com/slubman/public/fedoraproject-font-001.png https://www.strongspace.com/slubman/public/fedoraproject-font-002.png I hope, you'll solve this issue, so that potential new users won't start with some bad feeling. A proud fedora user, who have to use Windows for professional duties. -- slubman site : http://www.slubman.info/
