Links from enbedded AHK-code in help forum are incorrect

27 Feb 2018, 09:45

Hi.
Clicking onto a command, which is embedded into the website directs to wrong address.
Please try to click on the command below and look to which site you are directed

Code: Select all

MsgBox, German teachers fooling foreign children out of education is standard in Germany
Directed to: https://autohotkey.com/docs/MsgBox ; wrong address
instead of: https://autohotkey.com/docs/commands/MsgBox.htm ; correct address

I'm using Chrome-browser and visiting this site from Germany.
Einfach nur ein toller Typ. :mrgreen:

Something must have recently changed in the docs as those links have worked for years till now. @ragnar can you confirm?

This redirection works server-internal, over which I have no control nor knowledge of how it works.

I suppose the cause is the most recent server maintenance, but I'm not sure.

do these @ tags work to notify a user? i thought only quoting them would send them a notification

@guest3456 test

tank: i mentioned this same issue in my other thread in this forum. if ragnar thinks its a server side issue, perhaps there used to be an htaccess rewrite rule

There have been no maint. on redirects or the .htaccess. I will edit the GeSHi file this weekend to add the missing folder structure. I just wish i knew when or how this changed

as I remember, the codeboxes and [docs] tags always linked to these links:

https://autohotkey.com/docs/MsgBox

and then the browser got redirected to the real link

For me it stopped working right after the server maintenance( https://autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic ... 98#p202298), so I thought it was connected somehow.

Might not Lexikos know more about this? I had the impression he set up/maintains the docs.
