And when you add the credentials you will see the domain there too,
which is enough.
These two UIs use the same composite. If I hide the domain in one,
it will hide it in the other.

OK, so in that case remove both :)

Or once you click Add.. to add credentials.
The credentials
framework doesn't have a registration portion of the API. I really don't think
it'd be appropriate to add such things to the API now considering the current state of
development and the future direction of the tools.

OK, so it can be on the New Server wizard, i.e. somewhere close to the Add button. Or do
you think it's a bad idea? You could say it's just more clutter. But isn't it
a valid concern that a user may end up there without an account and it would be nice to
provide a link? What do you think?
Add Red Hat Developers sign up link to CDK New Server wizard

Key: JBIDE-25971
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-25971
Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: cdk
Affects Versions: 4.5.3.Final
Reporter: Martin Malina
Assignee: Rob Stryker
Attachments: new-server-cdk.png
While reviewing documentation updates for cdk installation in devstudio, we noticed a
thing that is not ideal in the workflow.
Imagine you don't have an account on
developers.redhat.com yet.
You go to New Server -> CDK 3.2+.
On the next page, you're supposed to fill out your credentials, but you don't
have any. Yes, you could argue that there is a way to get there: If you don't have an
account, that probably also means that you don't have a cdk binary either - you need
the account to download it. So you need to click Download and install runtime... and that
will offer you a link to register. So once cdk is downloaded, you can then add the
credentials. But that's pretty cumbersome.
So I would suggest we add a Register link somewhere - either on the New Server
wizard's second page. Or once you click Add.. to add credentials.
That's issue 1.

There are also a few side issues:
2. I would suggest you remove the Domain field/dropdown from the wizard. It's always
just greyed out. If we ever want to support more of them we can add it back. And when you
add the credentials you will see the domain there too, which is enough.
3. When you click Download and install runtime..., select a version and then go to the
next page, this page is called
JBoss.org Credentials - it's actually
access.redhat.com
credentials, can you change the title?
3.a Also, the link for signing up leads to
access.redhat.com. Wouldn't it be better
to point to
developers.redhat.com sign up page? That's what devsuite installer does.
