    Solved Topic URL / Link Redirects to a Different Topic

    Post by AnyColor August 2nd 2018, 11:26 am

    Technical Details


    Forum version : #phpBB2
    Position : Founder
    Concerned browser(s) : Mozilla Firefox
    Who the problem concerns : All members
    When the problem appeared : Since I tried viewing the topic today
    Forum link : pwgenesis.forumotion.com

    Description of problem

    Anytime I try to view the Topic: pwgenesis.forumotion.com/t43-fortune-2018

    It automatically redirects me to Topic: http://pwgenesis.forumotion.com/t1-site-navigation-tutorial-video

    This just started happening today when I logged on and tried to view the Topic (it was made a handful of days ago and didn't redirect to my knowledge then)

    Right before I noticed this, I was making some other topics, in a different sub-forum and I ended up double-posting it. The top Topic in that forum ALSO redirected me, and it was to the same Topic (t1-site-navigation-video) but the bottom Topic that was double-posted did not. I deleted the top double-post. That is when I started clicking other topics on the forum to see if they would redirect, but I found only one other topic that redirected (t43-fortune-2018)

    Any help on what the issue could be and how to resolve the URL redirect?

    Thanks for any help!

    Hello @AnyColor,

    It is an automatic protection deployed by the forum when a user has a suspicious behavior, which can be assimilated to SPAM. This is often the case when you open many topics or post many messages in a very short time. To protect itself, the forum simply redirects the user to the /t1- topic (even if it no longer exists).

    Just clear your cache to fix the issue. Wink
