The Help>Kdenlive Handbook menu item sends you to this very old page:
https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/kdemultimedia/kdenlive/index.html
Should perhaps rather link to this?:
https://userbase.kde.org/Kdenlive/Manual

The handbook relies on KHelpCenter, which always points to https://docs.kde.org/.
I'll see if I can get track down someone to let me in there. It would be trivial to at least update the Quick Start guide a drop a link to the full manual.
Comment Actions
Can we work again on having the reference manual on docs.kde.org?
If you notice, the manual on docs.kde.org was original exported from the wiki. The other problem with the manual on the wiki is that it's not versioned with the code.

Would @yurchor be willing to help me out with restarting the conversion process from the wiki to docbook? It seems like this would make the whole process easier for everyone.
Comment Actions
No problems. What exactly do you need to make the conversion (apart from the existing wiki page on this)? For me, it works as before but it worth to remember that all YouTube tutorials will not work offline for sure.
Comment Actions
I think the goal of this task was to get the complete manual moved over to the docs. Currently, there is only the Quick Start guide.
Even the Quick Start guide has problems with the conversion. It looks like the static images are out of date.
I also added a new section to the Quick Start guide linking people back to the full manual, but I don't know when the updated wiki will be sent to the docs page.
Comment Actions
Ok. The quickstart guide is synced now (with very minor editing, actually I have replaced the date and the Kdenlive entity):

As I said, the "complete" manual has many youtube inclusions which are better stay as is, connected to UserBase pages. On the other hand, should someone wants a really full content manual, here's my (incomplete, because of the low quality of the page content) list of pages that can be fed to our conversion script:

Think I could contribute an edit or two to the documentation. What you think is missing from the manual?
Comment Actions
- It should be correctly structured and formatted [1]
- It should be up-to-date. For example, [2] is outdated.
- Some pages are missing (red links). For example [3].
- It might be a personal preference, but I do not like some screenshots [4]. They look childish.

Should I be concerned with the refactoring version at the time being, or just 18.12.1?
Comment Actions
Folks, thanks for the effort. FYI, we have merged the refactoring branch to master so 19.04 will be completely new. So focus should be on the refactoring (which is now master.)
Comment Actions
The new manual is at https://docs.kdenlive.org Recently also the link in the help menu has been fixed.
