Intermittant Dead Links On Forum - Is It Just Me?
For several weeks now, I've noticed this situation where, if I click on an internal link in the SANE forums, I'll be sent to a page missing the "saneforums.org" in the URL. i.e. https://t5/Forums-news-and-feedback/bd-p/le-forum-0006, instead of https://saneforums.org/t5/Forums-news-and-feedback/bd-p/le-forum-0006.
Naturally, my browser isn't able to access a webpage without a host address and so it spits the dummy.
Sometimes this even happens when I refresh the page I'm currantly on.
It's very intermittant; and usually clears up if I go back to the previous page and then click on the link once more. So it's only a minor nuisance. But it has been ongoing for some time now.
My computer is fairly old now, and it's not without it's foibles. So I wouldn't be surprised if this is a problem on my end. That being said, SANEForums is the only website where I've been experiancing anything like this.
Can any other regular SANE users confirm or deny whether they've been experiancing incidents like this?

Hi @chibam,
Apologies, I only just saw this message. It happened to me this morning as well.
Leave it with me and I will flag with our digital team 🙂
If you do notice it again, would you mind screenshotting the error page and sending it to us at team@saneforums.org?

Re: Intermittant Dead Links On Forum - Is It Just Me?
Hooray! It isn't just me! It's actually reassuring to know that it's not some bug with my machine that I have to try to sort out.
The glitch happened to me again yesterday. But it hasn't happened today, since I read your post, @Daisydreamer , so I don't have any screenshots for you, yet. Will keep my eyes peeled, though.

Hi @Daisydreamer ,
I hope this post comes across more as being informative then whingy; but this issue is still occurring for me.
I just thought you guys ought to know that it's still happening, just incase you thought it was fixed.

No rush, as far as I'm concerned, @Daisydreamer . It's not a major problem.
Just wanted to make sure you guys were aware of it.
