[fedora-websites] #385: I don't like fade-out feature at flocktofedora.org

#385: I don't like fade-out feature at flocktofedora.org ------------------------+----------------------- Reporter: rluzynski | Owner: webmaster Type: defect | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Component: General | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: ------------------------+----------------------- When I hover my mouse over a section of the text at flocktofedora.org site the neighboring sections fade out, get white or blurred and unreadable. That's even worse if I hover the mouse pointer over the area with no text: in such case all neighboring sections fade out. I guess the intention was to emphasize the text under the mouse pointer but personally I don't like this effect. I don't tend to keep the mouse pointer over the text I'm currently reading. Instead I tend to keep it away, usually close to the right scrollbar. Also think about the touchscreen devices: if you touch a screen (for example to scroll the content) and it is interpreted as mouse hover a part of the screen fades out which you don't want. My suggestion is to fade in the hovered text rather than fade out the neighboring text. In order to let the text be faded in it must be faded out by default but really slightly faded out, for example background #eeeeee foreground #111111, and fade in to background #ffffff foreground #000000. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-websites/ticket/385> fedora-websites <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites> Fedora Website Team's Trac instance

#293: Some websites still use fedoraproject.org files -----------------------+----------------------- Reporter: robyduck | Owner: webmaster Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Component: General | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: -----------------------+----------------------- Our storical website http://fedoraproject.org actually has been replaced by https://getfedora.org and is now outdated. We still keep fp.o live although it's not build anymore, because many websites (also some apps probably) and the wiki still use CSS classes or other files which are in the fp.o tree. We should make sure all webpages have these files locally because fp.o will be overwritten at some point. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-websites/ticket/293> fedora-websites <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites> Fedora Website Team's Trac instance

[fedora-websites] #406: Cloud Atomic as default and some layout changes for getfedora.org

#406: Cloud Atomic as default and some layout changes for getfedora.org ------------------------+----------------------- Reporter: robyduck | Owner: webmaster Type: task | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: Fedora 25 Component: getfedora | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: ------------------------+----------------------- So, we need to start working on that soon, the Cloud WG will change their default option do Atomic. This means we need to rewrite the brochure page for Cloud and change also the download page(s). I'm not sure if we want to keep Docker, but for now let's assume we will keep it as it is now. Other than that, and working with the Design team (thank you duffy), we will change not only the Logo, but also our index page. These changes will lead to changes also on all the other pages, I'll resume here the major points: * main logos on the index will get some JS, see a fiddle here: http://run.plnkr.co/plunks/X5HMPdUBvJL3Yjoi9ekm/ * The header should be bootstrap reverse if you scroll down. Means, it will have the same background as the jumbotron when you get to the page, and become white (or black, need to test it out) when you scroll down. * Menu points should use anchors to scroll down to the menu point the user wants to go. Arrows should show this function to the end user. Obviously we want to keep it usable, so if you want to scroll down the page you can still do that. A mockup for the Atomic brochure page is here: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fedoradesign/nextweb- assets/master/Mockups/Brochure%20Site/brochure-mock-atomic_WIP.png You can read through a post with some feedback here: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/design- team@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/3F62JSC6ZW5PXC4EUHK5DTUEN55XMCUH/ Mairín will come up with more mockups, as our thought was to replace also the (horrible? probably yes) banner we show on the bottom when we get out a new release. If all works fine, and as we probably won't have any Atomic images for prerelease, this task should go into production for F25 final release. Keep in mind we need to change/check/update/whatever our scripts and variables. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-websites/ticket/406> fedora-websites <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites> Fedora Website Team's Trac instance

#405: Prepare websites for F25 Alpha release -----------------------+----------------------- Reporter: robyduck | Owner: webmaster Type: task | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: ASAP Component: General | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: -----------------------+----------------------- We are starting a new release cycle (Alpha release is planned for august 23th), and we will have some important changes. I'm not sure how the state of art is of the new media downloader, and also if it also should serve prerelease images; in case we need to rewrite all our major download links (see #384) On the other hand we should finalize alt.fedoraproject.org (see https://alt.stg.fedoraproject.org) with subpages for secondary arches. Would be nice to get it done and start with F25 Alpha. The other stuff needs to be tested very well, we had a lot of errors for F24 final release because the paths changed heavily and we couldn't know that. Please refer to the actual final release to see how things changed in the meanwhile. Atomic has become a chapter for itself, we should get soon in touch with cloud WG to see what they are planning and how they want to get out the two week images this time. The most probable scenario is that we won't have atomic images for prerelease again. * Create F25 Alpha branch * update globalvariables to F25 Alpha * Add Alpha banner * Check all Download links and paths * Add CHECKSUM files to static/checksums and verify that the paths are correct. * Add EC2 AMI IDs for Alpha. Our script is working also for prerelease, but let's add them also manually to globalvar.py, just to be sure. * Check and eventually fix checksum paths in all verify pages * Update Alpha Image sizes and pre_cloud_composedate in ./build.d/globalvar.py. Verify they are right in Cloud images and Docker image. * Update the new POT files and push them to Zanata -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-websites/ticket/405> fedora-websites <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites> Fedora Website Team's Trac instance

[fedora-websites] #274: UEFI consistency warning

#274: UEFI consistency warning --------------------------+----------------------- Reporter: immanetize | Owner: webmaster Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: critical | Milestone: Fedora 21 Component: get.fp.o | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: --------------------------+----------------------- Please add a prominent warning advising users to be consistent in their usage of UEFI or CSM (BIOS) style installation when booting multiple operating systems. Whether by misconception, firmware quirks, poor media creation tools, or accident, users have been consistently reporting issues with booting their Windows installations after installing Fedora. I have observed that a significant number of these issues relate to the user "disabling UEFI" to install Fedora, then discovering that their UEFI installation of Windows no longer boots. Browse through ask.fedoraproject.org for Windows related questions, and you'll see how prevalent these issues are. There is documentation under development to further explain the issues involved, but it would be hugely beneficial to have a simple warning to be consistent displayed when the Fedora image is downloaded. Maybe in download-splash? -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-websites/ticket/274> fedora-websites <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites> Fedora Website Team's Trac instance

#384: Change primary Workstation downloadable to Fedora Media Writer ------------------------+----------------------- Reporter: eischmann | Owner: webmaster Type: task | Status: new Priority: blocker | Milestone: Fedora 24 Component: General | Keywords: Blocked By: | Blocking: ------------------------+----------------------- We're working on F24 change to change the primary downloadable of Workstation to Fedora Media Writer (formerly LiveUSB Creator): https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/LUCasPrimaryDownloadable We need assistance from the websites team because the change requires changes on the download website: 1) Based on the user agent Windows users should be offered an exe file of FMW (Dennis is currently figuring out location for it). 2) For them, we should alter the website and explain what FMW is instead of "What is a Live image"? We should still keep ISOs in Other downloads for those we do want to download an ISO. 3) For everyone else (Linux, Mac,...), we should still offer an ISO, but instead of general "To use this image, you need a drive that can create or "burn" DVDs, or a USB flash drive at least as big as the image." we should point them to FMW, probably linking How_to_create_and_use_Live_USB which we will change to describe FMW. Answers to additional questions asked by robyduck in email conversations: Do you want to let people download a software to get a Fedora image instead of a simple download link of the iso?[[BR]] Yes, that's the idea. Especially on other platforms (Windows, Mac), it's hard to find a tool that can reliably write Fedora on a USB drive. So instead of downloading an ISO, Windows users will download a tool that will let them download it and write it on a USB drive. Mostly for win users?[[BR]] Only for Windows users in F24 release cycle. We planned the same for Mac users, but the Mac port won't be finished on time. If there is a standard cross-distro installation format (e.g. xdg-app) in the future, we may consider it for Linux users, too, but not for F24. What about spins, labs, Server?[[BR]] The Server working group decided not to use FMW as primary downloadable. We also don't want to include spins and labs now. FMW allows you to download Server, spins and labs, but spins and labs are in a list you need to extend, so it may be confusing for users as primary downloadable. We plan it only for Workstation now. Anyway, FMW should be at least mentioned as the official way to write the ISO on download pages of other editions, spins, and labs. How will checksums work?[[BR]] FMW checks checksums of ISOs it has downloaded before they're loaded to a USB drive. Where and who will provide documentation for the use of this software?[[BR]] We will describe how to use the tool on the following wiki page once it's official. We don't want to change the wiki page now when FMW is still not officially available.[[BR]] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_create_and_use_Live_USB -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-websites/ticket/384> fedora-websites <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites> Fedora Website Team's Trac instance
