Knacksteem: Weird home navigation issue.
Project Information
- Repository:
https://github.com/knacksteem/knacksteem.org - Project Name: Knacksteem
- Publisher (if applicable): Knowledges
Expected behavior
I expected that when I clicked the home button on the website, I would be redirected to the home page of the website.
Actual behavior
However, when I open a post from my profile and click the homepage, it doesn't navigate to the home page. Instead, it opens my profile as though it is the homepage.
How to reproduce
- Login to Knacksteem
- Open any post on the feed(Since you might not have published any article on Knacksteem, and your profile would be bare).
- After opening the post, click on the home button(The big Knacksteem logo on the top left)
- Sometimes, the error occurs the first time. (The error is that; instead of opening the homepage, after clicking the home button, the page that opens is the author's feeds).
- If the error doesn't show itself the first time, click the home button again.
- Browser: Google chrome v71.0.3578.98
Hi @harry-heightz, thanks for making this contribution
I was able to reproduce the behavior you correctly described. The home icon when clicked, redirects the user to the author's feed. This constitutes a strange user experience considering a user would normally expect the home icon to imply the home feeds.
I like the manner in which you explained your findings, the actual and expected behaviors are well written.
The steps you provided were easy to walk through, ensuring swift reproduction of the bug in question.
Depending on your technical background, are you aware that you can include in your reports an analysis of what possibly led to the weird navigation? You could also propose a fix. Doing any of these will further add value to the reports.
Thanks again for the contribution. I look forward to more of your reports :)
