Title: URL Changes, etc
Post by: Troy on September 20, 2019, 03:33:19 PM

I'm working to iron out some bugs and implement some features.

In the process, I gave up on the pretty URLs we used to have.
The new urls aren't as nice looking, but they will be less likely to cause problems down the road.

All topics should be accessible from all devices now!

Peace
Troy

Ok so there's an issue that this caused.

Links to old threads are no longer working.
I've been manually creating redirects to the most linked-to threads, but it's been a chore

Troy, just make sure 1Buckies threads work and we will be fine.[emoji482]

No rush.

Thank you in advance.

Topher I can feel you cringing at the thought of URL changes :)
It's a terrible scenario, dumping 7 years of url rewrites without a 301 table.
