#201: Update fudcon.fpo with FUDCon LATAM and Flock -----------------------+----------------------- Reporter: robyduck | Owner: webmaster Type: task | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Fedora 19 Component: General | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: -----------------------+----------------------- There is still a lot of time but we should start preparing the fudcon.fpo pages for FUDCon LATAM [1] in Cusco [2] and Flock in Charleston (South Carolina USA) [3], which replaces the FUDCon EMEA and NA. It could be the right moment to redesign also the fudcon pages (ticket #193), but it's not a must. While FUDCon LATAM has already organized a few basic things, as the banner etc., Flock is still starting this process.

[fedora-websites] #210: Should we re-organize download pages?

#210: Should we re-organize download pages? --------------------------+----------------------- Reporter: robyduck | Owner: webmaster Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: get.fp.o | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: --------------------------+----------------------- Our actual download pages are still remanends from older methods of shipping Fedora. We had 6 or 7 CDs, spins and some netinstall CDs, but now the arches and formats are much more and we are creating confusion. This leads to misunderstandings and we are also not able to promote all the arches the right way. Actually we have 4 download pages on fp.o: * get-fedora * get-fedora-options * get-fedora-all * get-prerelease and we have also http://spins.fedoraproject.org My thought would be to: * Drop the get-fedora-all page completely * Avoid any kind of duplicates, i.e. some spins (the major ones) are available on 2 or 3 pages. All spins should reside on spins.fp.o! * Use the get-fedora page to promote all the shipping methods The clearest method to do so IMHO would be to drop also the right random banners we have on the sidebar (Desktop, 2nd-arches, Cloud, Spins) and to put them into the get-fedora page.\\ They should link to the tabs in get-fedora-options or to our spins page and give users a clear idea of what is available.\\ Same for get-pre-release: it would be easy to promote on the get-fedora page, and we could also advertise it better on our main page. If I can find some time after F19 GA I could give it a try, but if you have concerns or ideas please let me know and comment. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-websites/ticket/210> fedora-websites <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites> Fedora Website Team's Trac instance

[Fedora Infrastructure] #3796: remove _csrf_token from display URLs

#3796: remove _csrf_token from display URLs --------------------------+----------------------------- Reporter: till | Owner: webmaster Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: HANDWAVY-FUTURE Component: Web Content | Version: Severity: Normal | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: Sensitive: 0 | --------------------------+----------------------------- = problem = Several web-apps use a URL paramenter called _csrf_token to prevent CSRF attacks. This token is shown in the URL location bar in browsers and makes URLs ugly and might lead to people exposing their CSRF token in e-mails. = analysis = HTML5 allows to manipulate the contents of the URL location bar. = enhancement recommendation = Deploy JavaScript like {{{ new_url = window.location.href.replace(/_csrf_token=[0-9a-f]{40}/, "").replace(/(\?|&)$/, ""); history.replaceState({}, document.title, new_url); }}} to remove the CSRF token from URLs shown in Browsers. This code might be adjusted to work in all browsers, but it works at least in Firefox. Maybe a JavaScript expert can take a look. The only disadvantage of this method is that going back in the history will reload a page that requires to reload re-verify. But this might be solved by storing the CSRF token in the history state. Also it does not seem to cause really trouble. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/3796> Fedora Infrastructure <http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure> Fedora Infrastructure Project for Bugs, feature requests and access to our source code.

#197: Should we create a schedule static page --------------------------+----------------------- Reporter: shaiton | Owner: webmaster Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: General | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: --------------------------+----------------------- There is no easy way to know when our next Fedora will be released. People should look for the right wiki page, and there could be frequent updates. I propose to design a simple page containing the main schedules (Alpha, Beta and GA releases). The data would be taken from the online official schedule (parsing as XML I think). This would be shared by ou main fpo websites (for the countdown banner..) The content would be in fpo/get-prerelease and on a secondary page like schedule.fpo? or just fpo/schedule? -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-websites/ticket/197> fedora-websites <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites> Fedora Website Team's Trac instance

#85: Updated "Upcomming Events" content ---------------------+------------------------ Reporter: sijis | Owner: webmaster Type: defect | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: General | Version: Keywords: easyfix | Blocked By: Blocking: | ---------------------+------------------------ The content in "Upcomming Events" section on the join-page [1] is referring to content from 2010. The content should be updated or generalized enough as not to put dates in the area but still make sense and be accurate. Any other ideas/suggestions would definitely be welcomed.

Also, we need to make it easily maintainable, they should all be on a specific folder, using the same overview/code (like kde Vs Xfce page). On big pic and the other one smaller. It could be great to reuse the on on the get-fedora-options fpo page. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-websites/ticket/167> fedora-websites <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites> Fedora Website Team's Trac instance

Have Chat support on the fedora website.
by Sherry Jindal 01 Jul '13

01 Jul '13

Hey Folks, Though fedora has IRC channels, but given the changing usage pattern, it would be much useful to users if there was an on-website-IRC kind of support, were users can discuss among themselves and get doubts resolved, all from the website. I am co-founder at Confaber (http://confaber.com) we provide exactly that kind of service, it just needs two lines of HTML to be embedded on the website. The service is completely free of cost. We would request you to try out our service on the fedora website. We would be happy to provide all kinds of support. We are sure that this will be very beneficial to fedora users and developers alike. Do let me know if you need any other info.Hope to hear from you soon. Sherry Jindal, Co-founder and VP Marketing, Confaber Inc (http://confaber.com)
