Picking up this thread again as it still upsets me whenever I visit the website and because a proper redesign of the navigation will probably take a while still.
To recap:
@david.sporer suggested to move Contribution
underneath Download & extend
and Community
under About
@aertmann suggested to merge Contribution
and Community
somehow (his other suggestion to move the Release roadmap
to Download & Extend
has been incorporated in the meantime)
@berit wrote (in the #guild-website slack channel): “I could imagine to combine Community & Events, I have the feeling that Communit and Contribution have too different subpages”
I think all of those suggestions would improve the situation (at least for smaller screens / non-fullscreen-browser windows).
The current navigation structure is:
Features
...
Download & Extend
Download
Release Roadmap & Process
Packages
Docs & Support
Documentation
API-Documentation
Support
Contributing
Development
Translations
Documentation
Donations
Community
Teams
Values
Meetups
Social Media
Events
Neos Conference Hamburg 2017
...
About
Code of Conduct
Security bulletins
Newsletter
Brand
Blog
So the following eight(!) 1st level entries:
If we for example move Contributing
to Community
(which is not too bad IMO and it has a nice landing page so IMO not a big issue that the 3rd level items are not in the menu)
In addition we could maybe hide the Features
item as they are promoted and linked on the homepage anyways. Lastly Download & Extend
could be called just Download
IMO:
I’m open to any other idea that reduces the number of 1st level menu items. IMO the result will be more appealing and less confusing as long as we make sure to keep the existing URLs working. And we can always cross-link if we fear that people won’t find the content they look for right away…
