Link Testing for 1.9.8

In preparation for the next release, we need to test every help link in 1.9.8. Wheee! Please add the links you have tested to the list below. I'll try to conjure up some kind of a checklist after RC1.

Features Admin Page Results


On June 16th, 2007 I tested all links on the features admin page. The methodology used for this test was:

  1. Do a fresh install of 1.9.8 from the daily build
  2. Enable help (still not enabled by default!!!) fixed
  3. Click on every link on the page
  4. Any link that had unsatisfactory results is noted below, with a brief description of the problem


Problems that are caused by source code will be filed as trackers. Problems that result from content will be handled through the doc tagging system. Please concentrate your contributions on these broken links.

Overall Comments


There seem to be two types of 404's getting processed. One gives you a list of
similarly named pages to try. The other one gives you a search box pre-populated with your failed string. IM
O, there should be one, and it should be the search box. Comments?

There are at least two links on this page that take the admin to another form
instead of a help file. IMO, that is inconsistent navigation behavior and
should be changed. Comments?

Detailed test results by section of the page are below.
