From YouTube: Search, Nav, Support Iteration Release

Description

Mar 27, 2023 - Apr 9, 2023

A

One good morning, everybody we are search nav support going over our iteration for these past uh two weeks, um our mascot, because it's springtime was this adorable kitten. Sunny days are ahead. um It's not raining anymore here in San Diego, so this was super cute um I will go ahead and pass it off to Laura.

B

All right and then I am going to share for Laura Dugan. She is out there was a big old ice storm caused problems in Ottawa, so here's our board and we kind of run down the the line. What she did um first thing is: oh my gosh. We have localized Pages for Enterprise, Japanese, German and French.

B

So here's the Japanese version, here's German and what's great about this- is we can see um kind of the next steps that we need to go for this uh localization process like getting these assets translated gotta get that nav translated. When we get our um translators in-house and you know, how do we translate devsecops? Is that translated or say English I, don't know, but um super cool great job there, and then we got there because we've pivoted away from Smart Lane.

B

We tried to get this page translated using the smartlink gdn and we could not get it done. So we can see here. You know, we've still got English strings mixed in with German strings.

B

Some of it is in English some of it's in German. um This is all in English. So after she went through and tried to get translation for all her tier one pages and German Japanese and French, we decided that we're not going to do that.

B

um So that was a lot of work figuring out how to get there and then pivoted her to building these Enterprise pages on her own stack and also migrated this topics page over to our repository, and that is it and then we'd reduce some image sizes on the education page with that I'll pass back over to miracle.

A

uh Hi again so, for this iteration I worked on fixing a bug that we had with our free trial links. um The link in our home page for the free trial page was a little bit different than the one in our nav and that caused some discrepancy.

A

um So I went ahead and fixed that I also uh finished up our rebranding from devs devops to devsecops, for all of our additional pages and I'm really excited to say that our marketing cookie admire was officially approved, um I'm working on getting that merged today and tomorrow, so that we can actually have all of this working on the product side. So we can see who's logged in on the marketing site um and with that I will go ahead and pass it off to Lauren.

B

Yay good job miracle that that one took perseverance, um that is awesome, I'm gonna read for John, since he is also out and I will go five days ahead.

B

And we're just gonna: try that yeah, hey we're back.

B

um Yeah sharing for John and we've got uh for this team Ops um page. It's also been internationalized. He added our href Lang attributes down here so now. All of our localized pages will have these in them, and these are super important so that our Pages work correctly for search engines.

B

We also landed the new software faster page um and it has some nice animation.

B

Whoa, look at that and uh kind of gave it a nice little refresh, so that is done and live, um and then circling back to here's, our team Ops page also in French and Japanese, um and it looks really freaking cool again, we'll have to get this internationalized for Japanese, but now that we're building ourselves, we can do that.

B

um There is the team Ops page also- and this was part of his big work of validating- that the I-18 and next module will work for us, and he also did this topics page migration- that's it for John. Let me just go double check, make sure yep and now I will go over for Miguel and not stop. The recording, like I just, did Miguel um okay, so another topics- page migration, got this over to our buyer experience Repository and then this one we added schema for all of our topics.

B

Pages that have these breadcrumbs, which is just this nice little script tag, and this is again important for our search engine optimization and he also in our navigation. We shipped a new minimal footer without the social icons down there, and this last one, which is one that Trevor also worked. This is a big push for us is we have the mvc5 of our navigation live on production, which shows those pricing plans ultimate and premium down there, which is super cool.

B

I think is that it that's it yeah all right cool for real bye.
