Different tabs of bugzilla

The Bugzilla Home Page Interface

Tabs in Bugzilla

The first thing to do is go to https://bugs.hamaralinux.org/ . The moment you enter the URL you would be presented the following web page

There are 8 tabs on the homepage when you land on the homepage. Most of these tabs will remain the same while a couple will change. We will go into each page in more detail, just sharing what they mean for now links which will not change/be constant are :-

Home - This is a link to the same page. Any website first page is known as the home page or the landing page. This page is the gateway which at a glance gives an idea of the best features of a site and in case of bugzilla would be constant/static image unless upstream changes it or we introduce some theme to the bugzilla installation as well.

New - This page will either get you to the login page or give you a new page where you can enter the bug.

Browse - This link would let you browse the bugs which are in different product categories that are there in this bugzilla instance.

Search - This link would let you search using different parameters to see if an issue/bug has already been put which you are searching for. Next to the Search tab there is also an Input box where you can put a search term/ keyword and do a simple search using that.

Help - This link would send you to the upstream bugzilla documentation .

New Account - This is where a new user need to go if s/he wants to create an account in order to file a a bug s/he has some across or has some feature that s/he wants.

Log In - When a user has made an account and he has the username and password in her/is possession or knows that, then he needs to provide credentials there.

Forgot Password - When a user forgets his/her password, this tab is used.
