Every nb.org redesign, most URLs change. This usually breaks any old NB release out there, which includes a few hard-coded URLs to things like feedback, issues, etc. We should set up a short list of permanent URLs which never change, for use in the IDE. I suggest putting them all at root level, eg like : /contact.html /issues.html /faqs.html For various reasons I don't think it is a good idea to have the real content at those URLs (eg wouldn't work with current site navigation infrastructure), but have those URLs redirect to the right place. Pls add any other required URLs here. See also : issue 34127, issue 23850.
/updates/** and /dtds/** of course fall into this category.
I've added the three URLs mentioned here. Any ideas how I go about finding a more complete list of URLs used in the IDE ?

Created attachment 10755 [details] Uses of netbeans.org URLs in **/*.properties
OK, thanks Jesse. Not sure that URLs to files on other websites are appropriate for this issue ... I think www is the site where pages move around the most, and hence needs these non-moving URLs. Maybe module owners should create similar fixed URLs on their module websites ? So, looking at links to www - excluding /updates/*; - excluding links to http://www.netbeans.org/; - excluding links to images/logo.gif (already has a "never move" policy); - excluding links to links that are already permanent-ised in this issue, like /issues.html and /bugs.html that leaves just 6 links : -- Please report this at http://www.netbeans.org/community/issues.html,\n\ core/src/org/netbeans/core/Bundle.properties Please report this at http://www.netbeans.org/community/issues.html, including a copy of your ide.log file.\n\ openide/src/org/openide/Bundle.properties See http://www.netbeans.org/download/dev/javadoc/OpenAPIs/org/o penide/doc-files/upgrade.html#3.5i-sep openide/deprecated/src/org/openide/deprecated/Bundle.proper ties Please report this at http://www.netbeans.org/devhome/issues.html,\n\ translatedfiles/src/core/src/org/netbeans/core/Bundle_ja.pr operties Please report this at http://www.netbeans.org/devhome/issues.html, including a copy of your ide.log file.\n\ translatedfiles/src/openide/src/org/openide/Bundle_ja.prope rties \ {0} \u4F8B\u5916\u60C5\u51B5\u53D1\u751F\u3002 \n\u8BF7\u901A\u62A5 http://www.netbeans.org/devhome/issues.html, \u9644\u5E26 ide.log \u6587\u4EF6\u3002\n ide.log \u6587\u4EF6\u5728 {1}/system/ \u6587\u4EF6\u5939\u3002 translatedfiles/src/openide/src/org/openide/Bundle_zh.prope rties -- All but one of these ought to point to the /issues.html URL which is aleady in place. I'll file issues requesting changes to those properties files for each affected module.
Filed issue 34621, issue 34620, and issue 34617. Use of these URLs should probably be documented somewhere, so if a developer needs to link to the site in future they know which URLs to use ... any ideas where that should go ?
I added notes about linking to these URLs, or in general linking to www, to the web guidelines page at http://www.netbeans.org/community/guidelines/web- guide.html#linking Those notes will propagate to www in ~1hr. Closing this issue; pls reopen with details if more such fixed links are required.
