tonyx86 189 Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 The recent website update has broken intra-site links. Prior to the update, the links were specified as Before Update: https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic... After the update, links became After update: https://www.insanelymac.com/topic... '/forum' was dropped from the updated links. It looks like the fix should be to restore '/forum' to the links where '/forum' is missing. Note that this fix should only be performed for intra-site links and not for links that reference locations external to insanelymac. eSaF and Allan 2 Link to post Share on other sites

tonyx86 189 Posted January 10 Author Share Posted January 10 (edited) The broken links problem is still present and should be VERY EASY to fix. Since I imagine the CMS for this site stores everything in a database (probably mySQL or similar), someone needs to write a script that looks for '/insanelymac.com/topic' and replaces it with /insanelymac.com/forum/topic'. There are many once-useful posts that are no longer helpful because their embedded links are broken. Edited January 10 by tonyx86 Link to post Share on other sites
tonyx86 189 Posted January 14 Author Share Posted January 14 Some of the download links that are embedded in posts are broken, too. I manually fixed some of these by deleting the download link (leaving the attachment) and saving the post. The re-created link (after saving the post) is fixed. Link to post Share on other sites
