-------------------------------------
Summary: EOL page surprisingly links to current M3 plugins
Key: MNGSITE-365
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNGSITE-365
Project: Maven Project Web Site
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Paul Benedict
Assignee: Paul Benedict
The EOL page has links on "Plugin" and "Version" columns. The former links to
the current plugin sites; the second links to the last M2 versions,
respectively.
An unsuspecting user (like me!) was clicking through the "Plugin" column, and
didn't realize it was the current documentation. This is a small usability
issue, but one I believe should be fixed. I am supporting ancient M2 stuff so I
come to the page often. The links are too good of a trap.
Recommendation:
# Set the "Plugin" links to their EOL versions.
# Amend the "Plugin" values to include the V of the GAV (to make explicit the
connection between the two columns). Example: {{clean:2.6.1}}
# Remove the "Version" links.
