#57726: Use the new /documentation/ URLs for HelpHub links
----------------------------+--------------------
Reporter: SergeyBiryukov | Owner: (none)
Type: defect (bug) | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: 6.2
Component: General | Version:
Severity: normal | Keywords:
Focuses: docs |
----------------------------+--------------------
https://wordpress.org/support/ was recently redirected to
https://wordpress.org/documentation/. That includes the root `/support/`
page, as well as all `/support/article/*` pages, with the exception of
support forums at https://wordpress.org/support/forums/.
This has some consequences for core:
1. All `/support/article/*` URLs should be redirected to
`/documentation/article/*` to avoid an extra redirect.
2. Links like this in Help tabs look confusing now:
{{{
'<p><strong>' . __( 'For more information:' ) . '</strong></p>' .
'<p>' . __( '<a href="https://wordpress.org/support/article/comments-
screen/">Documentation on Comments</a>' ) . '</p>' .
'<p>' . __( '<a href="https://wordpress.org/support/">Support</a>' ) .
'</p>'
}}}
* The second link says Support, but links to a page called Documentation.
* We could update it to:
{{{
'<p>' . __( '<a
href="https://wordpress.org/documentation/">Documentation</a>' ) . '</p>'
}}}
but then the whole list looks a bit weird:[[BR]][[BR]]
> For more information:
> * Documentation on Comments
> * Documentation ''(on what?)''
* Should the second link be updated to
https://wordpress.org/support/forums/ instead?
Note: The old `/support/article/*` URLs still work (with a redirect to the
new location), so this can be moved to 6.3 if preferred, but I think it
would be a better user experience to at least address the first item here
for 6.2.
