Buyer Experience Iterations
Mar 13, 2023 - Mar 26, 2023

A

How's it going this is the search, nav support team and we're going to go over what we did for this iteration. It's ending on March 24th I'm, going to go over what John did since he is out today. I'll go ahead and share my screen come over here, so we uh had some really exciting movement on building our own localized pages. Okay, first off, that's our mascot.

A

um We now have a French localized sales page, and this is great because this form automatically ties into the French sales force funnel and it's all translated and we also have a Japanese one same story. This form goes straight into the the Japanese sales funnel, and this is all fully translated built on our own thing. Last iteration, we also did one for German and what this means is.

A

We have a full life cycle built for our sales pages on our own stack, which gives us some really good learning opportunity see where you can go from there.

A

um In addition, he's also exploring what, if we use this next I-18 module to do this instead, so for these sales Pages, we just built it ourselves.

A

You know Straight Out of the Box, nothing fancy so we're going to investigate using this module, which adds all kinds of fancy stuff um and we're going to do that with the team Ops page and that we should have some looks at that by tomorrow and then. In addition, we also migrated this topics page over to buyer experience and it's in our nice beautiful new template it's on brand and that is really exciting. So good work, John I'm, going to pass it over to Miguel.

B

Thank you, Lauren I want to share my screen. Real quick for this iteration um I helped migrating this page uh over to the buyer experience we had it in the dub repo, and so we now have it in the buyer. Experience I also um uh helped with the personalization of the header in the navigation. So whenever we have a user that is uh categorized as small business, he will have a personalized uh customer success story here in the resources Tab, and it will be the same thing for oops.

B

Sorry, the same thing for Enterprise just a second.

B

uh We we have this customer success, sorry for Enterprise, so that that that's nice and also I hope, with the schema markup for blog blog posts in the dub repo. So now that that is automated, and that was for me for this iteration uh I pass it over to Laura.

C

Thanks uh this iteration I added a quick fix to our navigation, um adding in some constants in our CSS files for the Heights and the navigation, so that we can use those over and buy our experience for when we have things pinned to certain Heights um and then I'll share here and go over some of the um smart link changes. So we wanted to um translate all the tier one Pages, which I believe the list is here. um So these are the tier one Pages other than the sales page which Lauren just showed.

C

uh John has been working on um hardcoding those values, but these other Pages. We ran them through the smartlink gdn and we could see that, for the most part um translations are showing up. There is the odd string still appearing in English, so we met with smartlink today to kind of go over. How we can you know capture those strings. It turns out that common phrases like value stream management appears on multiple pages and it probably appeared on a different page that we haven't actually ran through the translator.

C

Yet so we need to actually go find that string start a translation job and then every time that value stream management appears on the website. It will be translated, um so we'll have to go through and kind of find all those little um strings that were that were kind of missed or captured on other Pages, um but we have a really good start on a lot of these uh translations.

C

um My favorite page, obviously the ygate lab page. We can spring runtor here and see. A lot of these. uh This table shows um an example of like a lot of these common phrases. Like container registry probably appears on multiple Pages. Most of these things will appear on multiple pages, so a lot of them aren't translated from the Y Gate lab page. They would need to be translated wherever smartlink saw them first, um so we've made some serious Headway on that. We also added some documentation on using smartlink for globalization and handbook.

C

This is just the review app that should get merged shortly. This is smart link specific, but I assume we'll also be adding some of the work that John has been doing in hard coding and maybe that I-18 module that we're thinking about using, but all of our options here for globalization as well. I think that's it for me and I will pass it over to miracle.

A

I can't hear you Miracle, maybe you're, muted yeah,.

D

Sorry guys this is my very first Zoom call um anyways thanks. Laura um I was saying that uh for this iteration I was working on my greeting this agile delivery, page from um the Deb repo to PE. So this is now in by our experience. I worked on the redirects for the customers page this used to link to customers marketing. It now goes straight to customers, and this is beautiful and then finally, I have gotten to the next step of the review process for our marketing cookie.

D

So hopefully, after today's review, I'll only have one more step before we can start uh personalizing our navigation um and that's it for me. I think that was everybody so see you guys next week.
