Site Docs: Add Details To Alert Creation Process #962

harding · Jul 14, 2015

This is, I think, the last thing left on the todo list from #934

Preview: https://github.com/harding/bitcoin.org/tree/alert-docs#alerts

I noticed @theymos's email address isn't on his GitHub profile as suggested above. @theymos, is it possible for you to add the information, just in case?

Done.

Thanks!

@harding Found a mistake here! The url will actually be https://bitcoin.org/en/alert/YYYY-MM-DD-short-title

@harding Would it be perhaps more self-explanatory to rename this variable to "shorturl" everywhere?

Edit: (And rename YYYY-MM-DD-short-title to YYYY-MM-DD-alert-title perhaps to avoid confusion)

@harding Except for the comments above, c014e92 LGTM, thanks!

harding · Jul 25, 2015

@saivann thanks for catching that mistake, and making that improvement suggestion. Here's what I've done:

Rebased to fix a merge conflict
Fixed the error
Changed alias to shorturl
Performed a full build and HTML diff to confirm that all the redirect pages were created at the same locations and that nothing else changed

Untested LGTM, thanks!
