forum vs Forum

Post by EvilGrins » Sat Nov 21, 2015 3:53 pm

Since Herm updated this forum, couldn't find the specific thread, I've had 1 tiny issue. Given the URL has forum in it now, instead of Forum, all the links I've posted to here on various other forums don't work anymore...

...just because of that singular letter no longer being capitalized.
:shock:
Argh!

Just wanted to share.

I could have sworn that the other day I tried his URL with a capital "F" and it still worked...

Nope, you gotta use the small "f"

I am surprised that even matters!?!? :shock:

It didn't matter with my old provider and does with my new one. I think that I did consider the implications and decided it was still worth it to capitalize it. So in a way you could say it was on purpose but I felt I was righting a wrong and not breaking something so much.

My apologies to anyone who has broken links because of this but on the back end of the life of this forum I expect it to run 3 times longer than it did before the change so in the end hopefully there will be more correct links than bad ones...
~Peace~
