Splunk Search

V6 free splash page display bug

Demonstrated below:

  1. Black text on dark grey background - totally useless from an accessibility perspective. What happened to the clean crisp, visible, and functional displays of previous versions?

  2. The rubrick text (copied and pasted below) is completely obscured.

Designed for personal use, Splunk Free is the fastest, simplest way to perform ad-hoc analysis, searching and visualization of your machine-generated data.

You can feed Splunk Free all kinds of data up to 500 megabytes per day. Use powerful search commands to mine your machine data, build reports to visualize results and create simple dashboards to provide an at-a-glance view of what's going on.

Click continue to get started. Don't worry – if you run into trouble, just click a help link or go to docs.splunk.com for the manual or Splunk Answers to ask fellow Splunkers for help. Good luck, and good Splunkin'.

The more experience I have of v6 the more it feels like a rush job.

There is a bug filed on this (WEB-7815); it is possible that we might be able to fix it in the web infrastructure and not have to touch the product code. I will follow up again after the holidays.
