Nick Fagerlund	85d477aee9	website: Fix numerous links with redirects or broken anchors ... These links largely still go somewhere useful, but they have some kind of issue revealed by our new link checker: - Some of them point to a stale URL that redirects, and can be updated to the new destination. - Some of them point to anchors that don't exist (anymore?) in the destination. - Some of them end up redirecting unnecessarily due to how the server handles directory URLs without trailing slashes. Sorry, I know that's pointless, just, humor me for the time being so we can get our CI green. 😭 In a couple cases, I've added invisible anchors to destination pages, either to preserve an old habit or because the current anchors kind of suck due to being particularly long or meandering.	5 years ago
Nick Fagerlund	8657b6d51c	website: Make most of /docs/plugins into ghost pages on Extend ... These pages are thoroughly obsolete. Later, we'll delete and redirect them; for now, we'll make sure the relevant pages are front-and-center in the sidebar if someone somehow ends up on here.	6 years ago
Martin Atkins	ddf9635af6	website: Don't claim that things are "very easy" ... We typically try to avoid making subjective, boasty claims in our documentation in recent times, but there remained both some older documentation that we've not recently revised and also some newer examples that are, in retrospect, also perhaps more "boasty" than they need to be. We prefer not to use this sort of boasty language because not everyone using Terraform has the same background and experience, and so what is "easy" or "intuitive" to one person may not be so to another person, and that should not suggest that the second person is in any way wrong or inadequate. In reviewing some of our use of the word "easy" here I tried as much as possible to surgically revise the existing content without getting drawn into a big rewrite, but in some cases the content was either pretty unsalvageable (due to talking about obsolete features that were removed long ago) or required some broader changes to make the result hopefully still get the same facts across. In those cases I've both removed some content entirely or adjusted larger paragraphs. This was not an exhaustive review and so I'm sure there's still plenty of room for similar improvements elsewhere. I also resisted the urge to update some pages that contain outdated information about currently-active features.	6 years ago
Nick Fagerlund	26f786959b	website: Update all Learn crosslinks (#26442) ... * website: Update all Learn crosslinks The URL structure on Learn recently changed, so it's time to update some URLs. Co-authored-by: Tu Nguyen <im2nguyen@users.noreply.github.com>	6 years ago
Nick Fagerlund	0ab7c1b90e	website: Add links to relevant Learn guides in several docs pages (#25718) ... Co-authored-by: Tu Nguyen <im2nguyen@users.noreply.github.com>	6 years ago
Nick Fagerlund	6494591ec1	website: Remove extra copy of "Getting Started", update links ... This guide now lives at: - https://learn.hashicorp.com/terraform#getting-started ...and terraform.io has been redirecting to there for quite a while. This commit removes the extra copy so that the text of the two versions doesn't drift, and updates existing links to point to the new location.	6 years ago
Nick Fagerlund	ac45e43fda	website: Finish moving "writing custom providers" to /docs/extend/ ... This document was previously copied to the "Extending Terraform" section (in the terraform-website repo), and the old URL was redirected so that the copy in /guides can no longer be reached on the website. But the old copy of the file remained, and now it runs the risk of confusing contributors, since the copy in terraform-website/.../docs/extend is the more up-to-date version.	7 years ago
Radek Simko	ecac80fd8e	docs: Fix inaccurate plugin CRUD description	8 years ago
Clint	e2272f71a0	Update our documentation to push "Getting Started" better (#15866) ... * update plugin/provider to make clear this section isn't needed for regular use * add some links and notes about getting started * remove the mention of binaries... I 'm not sure it's needed yet * 'Installing Terraform Providers' section * sometimes I can't words good * move the 'installing providers' block * cleanup of terms * copy that update to plugins/provider too	9 years ago
Nick Fagerlund	8c7bfde292	Docs: Fix broken links and a broken example ... These links were casualties of the core/provider split. There was also an example that suggested cloning a subdirectory of a git repo.	9 years ago
Martin Atkins	c57dbebe84	documentation: explain provider dev environment setup ... The intent here is just to introduce some initial docs on our recommended way to develop plugins in the same GOPATH as Terraform itself. The documentation in this area needs some more fundamental rework as it is rather outdated and mis-organized, but that's outside the scope of what this change is trying to achieve.	9 years ago
Martin Atkins	7ed70bb00e	website: new filesystem layout for core/provider split ... This repo now contains only the core docs, with other content moving elsewhere.	9 years ago
