Also it might be a good idea to create a page in the wiki with URL that will never chage, like the ones we coded into amsn. I think they are the following: plugins.php skins.php webcamFAQ.php FAQ.php
They will eighter forward to or are the page so if we change our website again or move links again, amsn won't be affected. It can work like this with other websites too. > KKRT > > On Thu, 12 Jan 2006 01:33:45 -0500, Sander Hoentjen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > wrote: > > On Wed, 2006-01-11 at 23:23 -0500, GrdScarabe wrote: > >> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > >> Hash: SHA1 > >> > >> Arieh Schneier wrote: > >> > I noticed that any links to the old website fail, for example I was > >> > >> just looking at amsn.xcoded.com and they have a link to the plugins on > >> the website, however its the old link so it fails. > >> > >> > Maybe we should put the old pages back which just forward you to the > >> > >> new website? > >> > >> > Lio. > >> > >> Maybe the easiest way is a .htaccess that redirect all 404 pages to the > >> index of the new website ? > > > > I'd say redirect to a page that links (and after 10 seconds > > automatically goes to perhaps) to a page that says the website has > > moved.
