Broken links to commands and functions in code blocks

02 Apr 2017, 12:48

If you click on one of the automatic links for an AHK command or function inside of tags, it no longer takes you to the documentation for that item. It appears it is still linking to ahkscript.org/docs/<command>, which is now getting routed to the autohotkey.com home page.

The link to the v2 docs (ahkscript.org/v2/) is broken, too.

doubtful.
all of lexikos links in that thread all use the link in the form:

AHKSCRIPT.ORG/boards/?f=t=

so its likely that thats what his google urls also used. try clicking one of his actual links in the posts. they are all ahkscript.org URLs which all redirect to autohotkey.com

the problem is that the redirect is broken
