🔒 No security concerns identified

⚡ Recommended focus areas for review Clarity In "The Codespace Environment", the sentence about codespace-details.txt is missing a preposition ("credentials access"); consider rephrasing to improve readability. Once the setup is complete, you will be in a Visual Studio Code environment within your browser. A file named `codespace-details.txt` will be available, containing all the necessary credentials access the Joomla installation. Accuracy Verify that the "Code" button and "Create codespace" option accurately reflect current GitHub UI for PR pages; wording might need to specify "Code" dropdown on the repository/PR and "Create codespace on main/branch". 1. Navigate to the pull request you want to test on GitHub. 2. Click the **Code** button in the top right. 3. Select the **Create codespace** option.  4. A new browser tab will open, and GitHub will begin creating the Codespace. This process will take a few minutes as it sets up the entire Joomla Completeness Consider adding notes on resource limits/timeouts of Codespaces, cost implications, and persistence (e.g., how to resume a stopped codespace) to set tester expectations. ## The Codespace Environment Once the setup is complete, you will be in a Visual Studio Code environment within your browser. A file named `codespace-details.txt` will be available, containing all the necessary credentials access the Joomla installation.

PR Code Suggestions ✨

Explore these optional code suggestions:

Category	Suggestion	Impact
High-level	Verify image asset paths The new docs reference multiple screenshots under _assets/, but the PR doesn’t include those assets nor confirm their path relative to the docs build system. Ensure all images are added to the repo and that paths comply with the docs site’s static asset conventions, otherwise the guide will ship with broken images. Examples: docs/testing/manually/github-codespaces.md [17]  docs/testing/manually/github-codespaces.md [26]  Solution Walkthrough: Before: # In docs/testing/manually/github-codespaces.md ... 3. Select the **Create codespace** option.  ... # PR does not include the image file: # _assets/create-github-codespace.png After: # In docs/testing/manually/github-codespaces.md ... 3. Select the **Create codespace** option.  ... # PR should also add the image files, for example: # + /docs/testing/manually/_assets/create-github-codespace.png # + /docs/testing/manually/_assets/initial-vscode-setup.png # ... and all other images Suggestion importance[1-10]: 9 __ Why: This suggestion correctly identifies a critical issue where referenced images are missing from the PR, which would result in broken content in the new documentation page.	High
General	✅ Use stable absolute link Suggestion Impact: The commit updated the relative link ./github-codespaces.md to the absolute path /testing/manually/github-codespaces as suggested. code diff: -For a step-by-step guide, please see the **[Testing PRs with GitHub Codespaces](./github-codespaces.md)** documentation. +For a step-by-step guide, please see the **[Testing PRs with GitHub Codespaces](/testing/manually/github-codespaces)** documentation. Use an absolute docs link to ensure the reference resolves correctly in all build contexts and avoid broken links if this file moves. This prevents navigation errors. docs/testing/manually/index.md [25] -For a step-by-step guide, please see the **[Testing PRs with GitHub Codespaces](./github-codespaces.md)** documentation. +For a step-by-step guide, please see the **[Testing PRs with GitHub Codespaces](/testing/manually/github-codespaces)** documentation. [Suggestion processed] Suggestion importance[1-10]: 7 __ Why: The suggestion correctly proposes changing a relative link to an absolute one, which is a best practice for documentation maintainability and helps prevent broken links if files are moved.	Medium
	✅ Clarify port naming and URL Suggestion Impact: The commit updated the documentation text to generalize port names and specify clicking the HTTP(S) forwarded URL, matching the suggested clarification. code diff: -To access these, navigate to the **Ports** tab in VS Code. You will find forwarded ports for the Web Server and Cypress GUI. Click the -globe icon next to the "Web Server" to open the Joomla site in a new tab. +To access these, navigate to the **Ports** tab in VS Code. You will find forwarded ports (e.g., "Web Server", "Cypress"). Click the globe icon next to the HTTP(S) forwarded URL for the web server to open the Joomla site in a new tab. Clarify that ports may be labeled differently and ensure the user opens the correct forwarded URL (HTTPS) to avoid mixed-content or blocked popups. This reduces user confusion when port names differ. docs/testing/manually/github-codespaces.md [35-36] -To access these, navigate to the **Ports** tab in VS Code. You will find forwarded ports for the Web Server and Cypress GUI. Click the -globe icon next to the "Web Server" to open the Joomla site in a new tab. +To access these, navigate to the **Ports** tab in VS Code. You will find forwarded ports (e.g., "Web Server", "Cypress"). Click the globe icon next to the HTTP(S) forwarded URL for the web server to open the Joomla site in a new tab. [Suggestion processed] Suggestion importance[1-10]: 6 __ Why: The suggestion improves the documentation by making the instructions for accessing forwarded ports more generic and robust, which helps prevent user confusion if port labels change in the future.	Low
	✅ Fix grammatical clarity Suggestion Impact: The commit added "to" in the sentence, changing "credentials access" to "credentials to access," exactly as suggested. code diff: Once the setup is complete, you will be in a Visual Studio Code environment within your browser. A file named `codespace-details.txt` will be available, -containing all the necessary credentials access the Joomla installation. +containing all the necessary credentials to access the Joomla installation. Fix the grammatical error to clarify that the credentials are used to access the Joomla installation. This improves readability and prevents confusion for users following the steps. docs/testing/manually/github-codespaces.md [24] -containing all the necessary credentials access the Joomla installation. +containing all the necessary credentials to access the Joomla installation. [Suggestion processed] Suggestion importance[1-10]: 3 __ Why: The suggestion corrects a minor grammatical error by adding the word to, which slightly improves the readability of the documentation.
