I found Neva Areilnam's posting on <website@global.libreoffice.org> and post it here without checking: There are two broken or misdirected links: 1.) The link entitled "bugzilla account" listed as part of the sentence "Please login using your bugzilla account." What URL does the link point to: <https://www.libreoffice.org/> What is expected: That clicking on this link would take me to a bugzilla login page. What happens when clicking on the link: It opens the home page for libreoffice.org in the current frame. 2.) The link entitled "create an account" listed underneath the Sign in button. What URL does the link point to: <https://www.libreoffice.org/enter_bug.cgi> What is expected: That it would take me to a page where I can create a bugzilla account. What happens when clicking on the link: Page Not Found Sorry, the page you tried to visit was not found.
REPRODUCIBLE! Link in "Please login using your bugzilla account" wrongly leads to <https://www.libreoffice.org/> An appropriate link for a login might be <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/query.cgi?format=specific&field0-0-0=xyzzy&GoAheadAndLogIn=1> (I did not check all possible cases) Link in "or create an account" leads to <https://www.libreoffice.org/enter_bug.cgi> A better link might be <https://www.libreoffice.org/bugzilla/createaccount.cgi> (I did not check all possible cases) @Loic: can you please proceed? May be you can create in the Wiki (or show me) a short manual how to do such minor changes like modifying links, smaller text changes and similar what do not require developer skills?
The href in the signin page are created using the $.bug.url prefix, which may be different from / It was previously assumed that the bug submission assistant runs as a standalone server and / was bugzilla. All references have been made relative to the $.bug.url but these being hardcoded in the bugt.xhtml file were overlooked. http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/website/commit/?id=5c51c26990b27e262fbe8768d82ee66d1f5028b0
@Rainer http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Bug_Submission_Assistant#Installation_and_maintainance has instructions on how to update the bug submission assistant page. The implementation is documented at http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Bug_Submission_Assistant#Implementation It is often non trivial to figure out what should be hardcoded and what should not. In this specific case, hardcoding the URLs of the signup state was a mistake that had to be fixed and the modification was not trivial. But not complex either.
Regarding the first link, 'Please login using your bugzilla account.', I'm not sure it should link to which page, since this bugzilla doesn't have the real login page. So, I propose to just use the word 'bugzilla' as a link, and then link to the first page (as it is currently). This is to tell the users 'in which bugzilla you have to log into'. Suggestions? Please feel free to comment :D
Created attachment 52734 [details] Screenshot @Korrawit Pruegsanusak: The reason to suggest <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/query.cgi?format=specific&field0-0-0=xyzzy&GoAheadAndLogIn=1> for login was that that was the most prominent login I know, pls see screenshot. The link in "... create an account" shows the same result and seems better for this job (more simple link). To me the currently used <https://www.libreoffice.org/bugzilla/> seems to be not very (beginner) user friendly, it only shows the word "login" at the top of the page. The link in "... create an account" IMHO is not a very good solution. Why do we do that detour although <https://www.libreoffice.org/bugzilla/createaccount.cgi> does exist?

I appreciate your comments, but I'm not sure why do we have to provide a link to the login page if we have one in the BSA? This is the reason of my suggestions. > To me the currently used <https://www.libreoffice.org/bugzilla/> seems to be > not very (beginner) user friendly, it only shows the word "login" at the top of > the page. Yes :D > The link in "... create an account" IMHO is not a very good solution. Why do we > do that detour although > <https://www.libreoffice.org/bugzilla/createaccount.cgi> does exist? I've already email Loic regarding this.

Thanks Loic for getting it into the server! http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/website/commit/?id=535d0a62962dab98fe4ec6caecd063890496bf01
