Help Documents not firing on El Capitan (was Re: Wiki Landing Page)

[Adrien Monteleone]

Tested everything. Also tested with default browser as Safari, Chromium-canary, Opera, Vivaldi, and Firefox Developer Edition.

Nothing happens when I click anything in the help menu or any context help buttons.

I do see that there are links in the GnuCash directory pointing to Help & the Guide.

Personally, it’s not a big deal for me because I know where to find those docs already online, but those menu entries and buttons should work.

Should I expect to find something in the logs when those are fired? or if they fail?

I’ll test with private mode off and I’ll also test with other browsers as the default and see what happens. I’ll also test FF with no extensions. One of them might be interfering. (I suspect uBlock Origin as that is usually the culprit when something isn’t working right)
