  • Documentation link still broken.
  • Heart icon before Donations is lost if JavaScript is not available.
Edit:

After the hard refresh "Documentation link still broken". Not true it works!

If it's the only thing that doesn't work when javascript is disabled, then I consider it a big victory :)

The page looks good now! :-)

yorik, can you take a look here [1]and here [2] about the donation link? Paypal seems to have documentation all over the shop and not really up to date, but I found that we should be able to create a custom page (that explains German language - maybe Jurgen did the same thing) and it defaults to $ if the currency is not specified.

Yes there are small differences (like fonts) but as there isn’t any "JavaScript content" used "fall back" shouldn't be a big issue. As for the icon i tested with Crome (JavaScript off) and the behaviour is the same as with FireFox but in Chrome after a slight delay icon is shown correctly. Anyway i didn't investigate what is the cause and it might be other FireFox users with JS (temporarily) set to off don't see the issue.

Cool, yes maybe. But I don't think we can create a new page on Jürgen's behalf.. Jürgen if you read this, up to you now :mrgreen:

Found a bug:
The link Building from source points to http://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/wiki/?title=Compiling
resulting in a 404 error.
It should point to http://www.freecadweb.org/wiki/?title=Compiling

This happens if you are on any wiki page and then click the link on the footer. It doesn't happen in the homepage.

I miss the latest changes list, that is what kept me comming back every time, just to keep up with the changes, I think it was a good feature because it shows how quickly this project is being extended.

my 2 cents.
