It seems to be a redirection issue. If you go to https://plugintolinux.ca, but type directly https://plugintolinux.ca/drupal/web or go to https://plugintolinux.ca and then go to another link on the menu, say 'next meeting' and then click on 'lifewire's..." and it works. I was trying to have plugintolinux.ca go to plugintolinux.ca/drupal/web where the main website files are stored, but obviously I did it incorrectly as it's breaking things. Very subtle. Thanks for finding it.

I'll try and fix it, although it'll likely be later or tomorrow.

Yes, I am having the same issue. I type plugitnolinux.ca ,on that main page, I click on  March2020, then I get a broken Link message.

Thanks, guys. I'll be on it as soon as I figure out this odd forum login issue that at least a couple members are having. In the meanwhile, I'll turn off Recent Content so the 'brokenness' is hidden.


Update: That's what I tried to do, anyway. Now I'm getting broken links all around and only the first page works when you go there and the menu link to the forums. The rest are broken. That is, unless you correct the link at the top to be plugintolinux.ca/drupal/web followed by whatever page you were going to. For example, https://plugintolinux.ca/node/4 needs to edited to https://plugintolinux.ca/drupal/web/node/4. Now I just have to figure out how to do the re-direction from the former to the latter in the web server config.

This problem is super annoying guys. I'll fix it ASAIC (as soon as I can).

Sorry guys that I haven't got around to fixing these issues. I'm not sure where to start.

The login issue is more annoying but probably the hardest to resolve. I didn't write the forum software so once I'm ticked or unticked the appropriate boxes in the settings, I'm kind of stuck. it's like a bug in SMF but I'm kind of flummoxed about how to solve it. I tried the SMF forum and nothing remotely resembling this issue has a mention.

The broken link issue on the main site, I expect to be able to fix in the next day or so after some reading up on how re-direction of URLs works in Apache (the web server software). Good thing I don't have a job - I'd never have the time for this stuff. I sometimes wonder if it wouldn't just be better to have a wordpress page announcing the upcoming meeting and leave it at that.

Frustratingly yours...
