From YouTube: Search, Nav, Support Iteration Release

Description

Jul 3, 2023 - Jul 16, 2023

A

Foreign welcome to the search nav and supports Sprint release uh update for the iteration of July 3rd to 14th. um Yeah. Awesome uh awesome, iteration, lots of exciting things going on um so with that I'll uh kick things off by passing it over to uh Lauren, to read for tme.

B

Yeah, so this iteration she worked on. We had a horoscope horizontal scroll button that happened when we localize some pages and we added French German Japanese and the the navigation because of the longer character counts. There is some weird um cutoffs happening, so we we made an iteration there, but we're gonna need to make another one. So she worked on that she's been working on publishing all of our um language uh QA round two for all of our current Japanese Pages. We had our translators, look at them again and provide another round of content.

B

That's about 10 pages there and um did a partner, merge request. So add it um or updated Enix to squash on our partners page and then I'm gonna share my.

C

B

Because we did a super cool thing yesterday, which she was also the leader for was our 4.10 nav release and we we live streamed it. So you can see our Lo-Fi hip-hop intro there um and that was that was pretty cool, uh so that will wrap it up for TMA and I will pass it to Megan.

D

Thanks Lauren um pretty busy in the Sprint um first we finally closed the Marketo email template. We got that in a great spot and Ali signed off on it, so that felt really good to close that one out um and then we can move on to iterable, um followed up on uh previous iterations I made um got the Sixth Sense personalization released as well as because they were kind of in tandem. uh The nav loading speed issue that was fixed.

D

uh We saw like for my internet speed like an 85 it like it's faster by 85, um so we were at like 250 milliseconds of full loading time an hour at like 35 milliseconds. So the bad news um is, we got it in production with the nav release yesterday and it's not quite working, so I have to keep iterating on that.

D

It's a little frustrating how things are working in our review apps and when you build things out uh locally and it's great, so it makes troubleshooting a little harder, but um we're so close and looking forward to to getting those changes like really working in production, because it's a that's a big speed increase um next I hot fixed, an issue on the English home page. It was specific to the English version or the view source and edit buttons weren't working.

D

They were looking for like the English US file path, and we don't use that, um despite like the next internationalization module being like you're using that right um and it's all fixed and then finally, I can demo this out. I worked on the privacy and privacy cookies Pages for localizing them um just walls of text, so the English version lives in like the handbook, but uh we got these looking pretty on the marketing site.

D

um That's all for me. I'll, pass it off to I! Think Hobbies. Next.

E

Yeah, thank you, Megan. uh This iteration I finally closed the preference, Center and Integrations page uh issues that were open for a while. The Japanese uh looks like I think it was the Japanese or the it was. One of the forums is still being worked on by marketing Ops, so we'll get that in there uh whenever it's ready, but that should be pretty simple to do.

E

Just one line code change uh worked with changing out the static links in the nav uh and the footer uh to work with some of our other um navigation changes, as mentioned in our live stream, uh uh updated all of the French uh content, essentially with the updated rounds and working through some of the functional bugs uh later today, um gonna still try to troubleshoot the root HTML element. Lang property um I've been wrestling with that yesterday and the day before and I think it's trickier than I thought it was going to be so.

E

We're gonna see how how that goes. um But I have some some notes in the issue and then I want to share the lighthouse CI job results, as well as uh some iteration in terms of how we collect the data um so that we can, you know, persist that data instead of having it being temporary storage. uh That's it for me, gonna pass it off to John.

C

Thank you, honey.

B

Well, this this iteration I work.

C

C

Employee the following sorry for for thinking uh improving the following in our site. So let me share real quick.

C

B

C

So before, uh when we loaded the page, you can see that uh the phones were different for an amount of milliseconds and then it changed to uh our font that is uh currently on Gilda right now uh it doesn't happen so it loads the uh the phones needed right away. So that is a huge Improvement on performance.

C

uh Also I did a change to remove all dynamic re-elections in the navigation and in my experience so let's say we have the home page in in English. We have the compass in English. If we change to German, we will be related to German page, but um here in the in.

A

C

The language of the user will be saved as German and, if I go back to the English version, I shouldn't be related to a German version, as it happened before, even though the language of the user is still German. Also I did a change to um keep study links in our site right now. I have this um reviewer, but uh if you see here below that, I have it a little bit of height if.

D

You see below I'm sorry.

C

Okay, if you see below, um we have anesthetically to the French version of the sales page uh and it is the same for every other uh static link. So we do not have any more uh Dynamic links because we have as SEO issues with Dynamic links. So we changed our approach to starting leads and you can see uh here. We.

D

C

Rated to the sales French page without Dynamic relation but static right actions, and that's it for me next one is.

A

Thanks John uh from Design This iteration uh primarily worked on the devsecop survey report for Q3, just Gathering data from q1 and Q2 to help inform us for Q3, which would be on the subject of artificial intelligence, so make it good progress there, but ultimately decided on um pausing this until September, when it's a better time to release this particular survey report other than that I worked on some other things in terms of updates to the gitlab duo page, so just made some changes to the hero section, as well as the hover states on the feature cards just to make it uh a bit more aligned with our current uh uh styling within slippers.

A

um Also, some minor support um for Megan as she worked on the German documentation Pages, as well as supported, resolving an issue within type form for our maturity assessment experience. So that's back up and running so yeah. That was it for me. This iteration I will pass it over to Lauren.

B

Right so uh main thing is um booted up an issue, so we can iterate on our qualified chat box and we've we've made some progress there um before it was popping up and taking over, like the whole screen on mobile. So I'll show you um the changes that we've worked with on marketing Ops. So here is, you know: I have my browser set before this was popping up, so it was the whole screen, but now it's just the icon and if you click on it, then it'll initiate the qualified chat. So nice iteration there.

B

We still have some more work to do there, but um some really good collaboration with marketing Ops on getting that changed so that that will wrap it up for search, nav support for this iteration and we'll see everyone next week.
