Status Draft, not filed on drupal.org yet

Problem/Motivation

While translating the demo content we found these errors:

  • Links to pages that do not exist: the footer menu link "Terms and Conditions" and the consent text of the Business Contact webform point to /terms-and-conditions; the FAQ answer "How do I get started?" links to /documentation. Both return 404.
  • Summaries without a space: the summaries of all twelve blog posts join the first heading and the first sentence without a space, e.g. "Showcasing Varbase Success Stories:This blog post will highlight …".
  • Cut-off text: the post "Case Studies: Successful Websites Powered by Varbase" ends mid-sentence: "… significant improvements in traffic, user engagement, and operational".
  • Contradicting versions: the About Varbase page says "Built on Drupal 11" in one paragraph and "the best Drupal 10 web development" in the next.
  • Wrong alternative text: the media item "Colleagues reviewing a document on a tablet" has the alternative text "Friendly support agent with headset".
  • Two descriptions: the template list of the Drupal CMS installer describes the template differently ("Designed as a general-purpose starting point …") from the recipe itself ("Designed for teams starting a new Varbase site …").

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install Drupal CMS with Varbase.
  2. Open the footer link "Terms and Conditions", the FAQ on the home page and the blog listing.
  3. Open the post "Case Studies: Successful Websites Powered by Varbase" and the About Varbase page.

Proposed resolution

Add the missing pages or change the links; build the summaries with a space after the heading (or write them by hand); complete the cut-off sentence; use one Drupal version; correct the alternative text.

Additional information

Found with Varbase Starter 1.0.x on Drupal CMS 2.2.1 (October 2026). The German translation of dcle completes the cut-off sentence and adds the missing spaces in the summaries; the links are translated as they are.
