Description Howard Johnson 2016-12-05 06:53:43 UTC

LO | Tools | Extension Manager | Help button gives this empty stub page:  

https://help.libreoffice.org/sdatabase/desktop/ui/extensionmanager/bundled?Language=en-US&System=UNIX&Version=5.2


I think it should point to either: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/HowTo/install_extension

Or also possibly: https://www.libreoffice.org/assets/Uploads/EN-Documents/Installingextensions.odt

Or, at the very least, to: https://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Extension_Manager

Thanks.

it looks the extension dialog was converted by Caolán Mcnamara.

@Caolán, Could you please take a look whenever you have some time?

Comment 3 Gabor Kelemen (allotropia) 2016-12-27 10:53:46 UTC

This happens because in 5.2 the default selected UI item is the "Bundled with LibreOffice" checkbox. We don't have help content for that and the wiki gives back an empty page.

In 5.3 the default item is the "Check for Updates" button and for that we have help content, although its linking with the UI is a bit messed up.
