wslany · 2025-12-11T20:34:05Z

Fixed bad URLs to point to correct informaton.
Removed buttons and menu entries to obsolete features such as the Scratch converter or Uploading of projects to share.

https://catrobat.atlassian.net/browse/IDE-305

Your checklist for this pull request

Please review the contributing guidelines and wiki pages of this repository.

On the main Catroid landing page, the main menu (top right) shows these two (or three) menu options, but they are not valid anymore. This just removes access to them. The correpsonding code still remains, and maybe be removable in future releases, e.g., via https://catrobat.atlassian.net/browse/IDE-301

Updated various URLs in Constants.java to point to the correct documentation and legal pages.

Just in case...

Removed upload project functionality from MainMenuFragment.

Removed test for back button behavior after tapping upload button since that buttn does not exist anymore on the main menu fragment.

Removed the uploadProject test method from ProjectOptionsTest since we removed the upload functionality to share.catrob.at

Removed project upload functionality from ProjectOptionsFragment.

Updated URLs for Catrobat documentation and wiki references. Unfortunately the original wiki pages apparently were lost without backup. Some of them may still exist on the internet archive site at https://archive.org/

Removed the onSaveProjectComplete function to streamline project saving process.

Removed unused imports from MainMenuFragment.kt

Removed unused imports from ProjectOptionsFragment.kt

Incorrect comment symbol.

Removed login and logout options from the menu.

Removed the TextView for project upload options.

Since we do not have remote projects anymore, all projects now are "on device". And there is no Catrobat community at the moment, so we redirect to the Catrobat website.

Since this URL is shown under the Catrobat (formely "Catrobat community") link on the app's landing page and previously led to our notice that the server does not exist anymore.

Multiple specific documentation URLs have been changed to point to the same generic "https://catrobat.org/docs/" URL. The constants CATROBAT_FORMULA_WIKI_URL, CATROBAT_FUNCTIONS_WIKI_URL, CATROBAT_LOGIC_WIKI_URL, CATROBAT_SENSORS_WIKI_URL, and CATROBAT_OBJECT_WIKI_URL previously had distinct paths for specific documentation sections. Now they all point to the same generic documentation page, which could result in users not finding the specific information they need. Consider appending appropriate paths or fragments to distinguish these URLs, or verify that the generic docs page adequately handles navigation to these specific sections.

catroid/src/embroideryDesigner/java/org/catrobat/catroid/common/FlavoredConstants.java

 public final class FlavoredConstants {
 	// Web:
-	public static final String BASE_URL_HTTPS = MAIN_URL_HTTPS + "/embroidery/";
+	public static final String BASE_URL_HTTPS = "https://catrobat.org/docs/";


The BASE_URL_HTTPS constant is being changed from a flavor-specific path to a generic documentation URL. This is a significant semantic change that could break features relying on this constant for flavor-specific navigation. The constant is used in Constants.java for SHARE_PROJECT_URL and CATROBAT_DELETE_ACCOUNT_URL, which might no longer function correctly with this generic docs URL. Consider whether these usages need to be updated or if BASE_URL_HTTPS should retain its original purpose.

Suggested change

public static final String BASE_URL_HTTPS = "https://catrobat.org/docs/";

public static final String BASE_URL_HTTPS = MAIN_URL_HTTPS;
