Better Update Notification #7689

Open theabraxas opened 4 years ago

What?

The update notification banner is good for knowing when new releases are available but the link isn't very useful, it just takes us to the graylog home page.

Why?

Whenever I see the update notification I am curious what new features are available. It would be great if the link took the user to the changelog page (http://docs.graylog.org/en/3.2/pages/changelog.html) or to a blogpost or similar type of informative article regarding what is in the update.

I can help with this, but I can't find any part of the graylog site where there is updated info of all the releases. https://www.graylog.org/products/latestversion <-- only updated at minor version level as a product brochure https://www.graylog.org/releases <-- links to blog posts with announcements, but latest is from 3.2.2 while current latest is 3.2.4 https://github.com/Graylog2/graylog2-server/releases/tag/3.2.4 <-- no details https://www.graylog.org/tags/release-info <-- list of blog posts tagged with "release-info" that seems the most complete list of releases but each post title can not be infered as they are not following any convention. Maybe the endpoint https://versioncheck.graylog.com/check could return (optionally) a new field with a link to the release notes.
