Open source projects link is broken on mobile about worldview HOT 8 CLOSED

I'd like to work on this issue, and have been thinking about it / looking around the dist for a few days.
brand/pages/pages is not a directory in the dist site-worldview, but brand/pages is. When I create the second page subdirectory (in my local apache2 var/www directory) as follows:

I get the following to show up at the mobile-sized browser link given above:

@Dylan-Brown Nice work. I'm glad you are taking on this issue. We have been meaning to get to it for some time now.

So, I don't think we need to necessarily alter the location of the template. The base of the issue appears to be that in mobile devices the about page opens in a new window and that with higher resolution screens the about page opens as a pop-up/modal.

You should be able to solve this by just fixing the href in the template file:

https://github.com/nasa-gibs/worldview-options-eosdis/blob/master/common/brand/pages/about.html#L145

I found another link that is broken in the same template:

https://github.com/nasa-gibs/worldview-options-eosdis/blob/master/common/brand/pages/about.html#L170

from worldview.

So, I rebased my fork after seeing there were two new contributions... and now I can't seem to find about.html anywhere. The folder brand/pages doesn't exist; in brand, there's just .gitignore and .htaccess files?

from worldview.

That's located in https://github.com/nasa-gibs/worldview-options-eosdis/tree/master/common/brand/pages

from worldview.

@Dylan-Brown I think I closed it a bit soon. It doesn't work on localhost when the URI points to the live instance of Worldview. So keeping this issue open for now

from worldview.

@tgunnoe so, should I change the links to relative directories? For instance,

 < a href='../../pages/worldview-opensourcelibs.html' target='_blank'>open source projects.

?
Since the 'about.html' file is in the options directory, I wasn't sure how changing it would affect an unpacked dist.

from worldview.

you can also open it in a modal under Info -> About in Worldview on the desktop. The absolute link works in both now on production but you'd want to see local changes of it in your local environment.

So a "../../pages" relative wouldnt work. "@hostname@/pages" or something similar would be ideal

from worldview.

This is no longer relevant after nasa-gibs/worldview-options-eosdis#147

(That update has not been deployed yet, but will automatically be included in the next deployment of Worldview)
