mindthegap Posted July 13, 2024 Report Posted July 13, 2024 Very recently, it looks like http/https rolldabeats.com has stopped working, which means a lot of links within tracklisting threads no longer work when pointing to that URL, such https://www.rolldabeats.com/forum/index.php?/topic/59939-kool-fm-1994/ and https://www.rolldabeats.com/forum/index.php?/topic/56640-love-of-life-other-events-single-tapes. Those that link to http/https www.rolldabeats.com work fine, which are mostly newer tracklisting threads. Makes jumping to specific dates/DJs difficult on the big threads. @Rich Quote
djkryptonn Posted July 15, 2024 Report Posted July 15, 2024 I noticed this, and updated a few of the threads I've done with those legacy URL's. If anyone comes across any more of mine that don't work, then please give me a shout and I'll go through and update the links. Not sure what's changed, but I'm pretty sure it's only happened in the last couple of weeks. Quote
Ornette Posted July 16, 2024 Report Posted July 16, 2024 Someone needs to update the htaccess so that all requests redirect to 'www' subdomain. It's a simple fix to do. Alternatively you can update the DNS records to do a redirect, but htaccess is probably more sensible Quote
Ornette Posted July 19, 2024 Report Posted July 19, 2024 Right, yeah, so this explains why I thought rolldabeats was down the other week, because my browser hot-links all direct to 'rolldabeats.com'. I'm having hence to add in the 'www.' part of it manually every time that I want to visit the site. There's several problems with this forum. The fact that line breaks are all displaying as doubled-up line breaks is one. Neither are embedded images displaying either, all old embeddings are showing as an unlinked url. Search as well is a pain as you're forced to wait 30 seconds before another one, even when going from page-to-page within the search results. I wish there could be some feedback from the admins on these matters, but as yet not. While I'm at it, can someone here with mod powers please, please edit these five posts: https://www.rolldabeats.com/forum/index.php?/topic/64804-unreleased-full-cycle-roni-size-dj-die-krust-suv/&do=findComment&comment=180791 https://www.rolldabeats.com/forum/index.php?/topic/64804-unreleased-full-cycle-roni-size-dj-die-krust-suv/&do=findComment&comment=180792 https://www.rolldabeats.com/forum/index.php?/topic/64804-unreleased-full-cycle-roni-size-dj-die-krust-suv/&do=findComment&comment=180793 https://www.rolldabeats.com/forum/index.php?/topic/64804-unreleased-full-cycle-roni-size-dj-die-krust-suv/&do=findComment&comment=180794 https://www.rolldabeats.com/forum/index.php?/topic/64804-unreleased-full-cycle-roni-size-dj-die-krust-suv/&do=findComment&comment=180949 The poster has, in each one, quoted the entire content of the opening post and due to the links auto embedding, is causing that page of the thread (page 10) to take 3 or 4 minutes before finishing loading. And/or, potentially crashing your browser. NB. You are actually able to get around the doubled-up line breaks, if you compose your post in a text editor first, and then cut/paste that into the reply field, but It's not ideal Quote
Rich Posted August 1, 2024 Report Posted August 1, 2024 Hi @Ornette. My apologies, I've been a bit slow with admin tasks etc. Let me look into this, but I believe it will be a simple change. Quote
Rich Posted August 7, 2024 Report Posted August 7, 2024 @Ornette, @djkryptonn This should be resolved now. Thanks for bringing it to our attention and let us know if you find anything else that needs fixing. Quote

I just checked the links in a few different threads and they all worked. Quote
