buildbot-website's Issues

wrong example on devel documentation, first run

on the page : http://docs.buildbot.net/latest/tutorial/firstrun.html#getting-ready

when setting up the worker:

/bin/buildslave create-slave worker localhost example-worker pass

but the master has the following configuration :

c['slaves'] = [buildslave.BuildSlave("example-slave", "pass")]

Thx to the issue i learned quickly buildbot, but should be suggested the same. :)

No download link available

Most of the time, If I go to buildbot.net, I want to download the latest packages.

I did not found a download link.

Specify Python Version

Specify the required python version in the docs.

Remove mailing list links

The maiing list has been dead quite a while now. Remove it from the website to avoid leading people into the impression that buildbot is dead.

I'd have submitted a pull request, but I can't figure out where the site content is.

Site needs a favicon

the current buildbot.net site doesn't have a favicon. It should.

Upgrade Python versions in site banner

Comment from here: buildbot/buildbot#4439 (comment)

Alternatively, is there a reason Python 2.7 (and 3.5-3.7) support is still shown in the site banner? 3.7.0, the PyPI version also listed there, lists support for only 3.7-3.9 (and I'm assuming it supports newer (as we're using it up through CPython 3.12) and the tags are missing).

Drop "Buildbot is dropping 2.7 support from master" banner

Comment from here buildbot/buildbot#4439 (comment)

Random passerby here, but maybe time to retire or at least update the webpage banner, given this issue is well over 4 years old and 2.0.0 was released just over 4 years ago now?

favicon.ico is missing

Hi there!

Your favicon (set up in #6 and #15) doesn't look like it's working. When I view https://www.buildbot.net in Chrome, it displays the default "document" icon for the tab.

And https://www.buildbot.net/favicon.ico is 404.

Typo in docs

This bug report is for http://docs.buildbot.net/current/manual/configuration/www.html. I couldn't figure out if there was a different place I was supposed to report this issue.

This:

for each or the organizations

should be changed to this:

The success stories link at the bottom on the front page leads nowhere

The success stories link at the bottom on the front page leads to a non-existing wiki page. It's right here in the source.

Some links in buildbot.net are in http instead of https

for example on http://buildbot.buildbot.net/, the links on there reference to the unencrypted http://buildbot.buildbot.net/waterfall site.

It might be good to either force traffic to be https and/or update the links accordingly.

Horrible javascript scrolling ignoring accessibility settings

The current website has a horrendously aggressive "smooth" scrolling that completely ignores motion reduction / suppression settings.

The website should respect said settings and not throw a sickening scroll effect when the user clearly states that such effect makes them sick (ie prefers-reduced-motion media query).

Issues for the main buildbot project

There's no option for leaving issues on the main project, and no contact on the website. So forgive me if it's misplaced, just didnt find the right channel.

I wasn't able to complete the tutorial on two separate, fresh GCE instances running Ubuntu 16.4
This the log (tail -n 20 master/twistd.log):

Remove not working Dowload Count shield

It's empty:

and looks like this statistics is not gathered anymore:

We can use e.g. shields from README instead (with different stats of course).

Valid syntax in Quick Tour Configuration Errors Section

In the configuration errors section (quick tour) the reader is asked to introduce an error by removing the first single quote in the two lines they just changed.

The result should be

c[title'] = "Pyflakes"
c[titleURL'] = "http://divmod.org/trac/wiki/DivmodPyflakes"

But the tour shows the syntax without any errors.

c['title'] = "Pyflakes"
c['titleURL'] = "http://divmod.org/trac/wiki/DivmodPyflakes"

The purple box is ugly

The purple shadow box containing the graphic for "Buildbot in Action" is too dark. It should be re-created from the graphic in the Buildbot docs.

buildbot-website updates are not happening

#46 was merged, but the https://buildbot.net website was not updated

The load speed of the website is slow.

Does anyone have the same problem as me?
It'll always take few more seconds to load the pages then other websites. 😵

index.html misses Analytics tracking code

Looks like introduced in d3170eb, was included here: d3170eb#diff-ad05cd303819776407ed64e6f9367d91L17

GitHub ribbon makes the width overflow

SSL certificate expired

The SSL certificate for https://buildbot.net/ expired on 29 March 2017.

The releases-documentation is misleading/incorrect/lacking

The documentation on releases that you find via a google-search or just manually navigating to docs.buildbot.net dont mention anything about a move to github for 'further' releases/release-notes.

It turns out there are two new releases after 3.6.0 I had no inkling of, no mention was made of them on the website.

I would suggest at least adding a reference somewhere that certain parts (releasenotes, versions, ....others?) have moved to Github.

I've had a babylonian misunderstanding with a colleague due to him landing on Github for his info, and me searching the official website docs for info.
