Register is redirected to login

[stanislav-brabec]

openSUSE Weblate uses openSUSE OpenID as the only user account backend. When one wants to register using Weblate, the Register button on the main screen refers to https://l10n.opensuse.org/accounts/register/. This immediately redirects to https://l10n.opensuse.org/accounts/login/opensuse/, which ends with https://id.opensuse.org/login/ldap?ipsilon_transaction_id={string}. This is a correct login web page, but there is no option to register. The correct registration URI is https://idp-portal.suse.com/univention/self-service/#page=createaccount

To Reproduce the issue

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to https://l10n.opensuse.org/
2. Click on Register

Expected behavior

Redirect to https://idp-portal.suse.com/univention/self-service/#page=createaccount

I think https://id.opensuse.org/ should handle this - Weblate has no knowledge whether user has SUSE account or not. So what is new registration to Weblate still is very likely existing SUSE user who does not need to create new one.

This issue looks more like a support question than an issue. We strive to answer these reasonably fast, but purchasing the support subscription is not only more responsible and faster for your business but also makes Weblate stronger.

In case your question is already answered, making a donation is the right way to say thank you!

I lost half an hour scratching my head with this. Really guys, "won't fix" ???
The fix may just be a slight warning on the page telling newcomers to go to "the right place".
I almost lost interest in contributing due to this.

I don't see anything we can fix in Weblate for this. After being redirected to login page (https://id.opensuse.org/login/ldap?ipsilon_transaction_id=fceca36c-3e5d-4f22-8eb5-a08162d994ca), there is "Don't have an openSUSE Account? Sign up.". That seems to give guidance what to do...
