Better UX for website newticket page

Open mikeherring opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

The UX for the website newticket page is very confusing. https://code.djangoproject.com/newticket

I would suggest something like the following changes be made: Visited links should not be a dark green that is almost black. Layout should be as follows with text changes for clarity:

Bug Tickets # Big title

Please read this first # Large heading Don’t report security issues here! Contact # smaller heading, not black Don’t use this form for general questions. Check the FAQ # smaller heading, not black

Issues # Large heading Django Project Code Issues # smaller heading Use the below form to create new tickets and for best response:

Follow bug reporting guidelines Follow patch submition guidelines Go through the bug checklist Use Preview to check your formatting. Django Website Issues #Large heading

For issues with the website report here: <> www <em.>.django.com<> ##!! www must be very emphasized ## For issues with the website code tracker report here: <> code. django.com ##! www must be very emphasized to tell the difference from the above link Bugs with Translation? Report on Transifex #Large heading
