What is up with all the PHPSESSID links at site now?

They all have a ID number on them for tracking and change.

I had bookmarked and used http://www.landzdown.com/winpatrol-help-information/ but now link is no good.
I know get from main page clicking on winpatrol-help-information
http://www.landzdown.com/index.php?PHPSESSID=9aa11de8c814128e1e9a566b4d6457d7&board=40.0
http://www.landzdown.com/index.php?PHPSESSID=c2f8db9755db3156547617e0c4ed075f&board=40.0

But now I seem to be thinking your changing things because I get http://www.landzdown.com/index.php?board=40.0 that is replacing all the above links that is the WinPatrol Help & Information forum.

So guess your now taking the ID away and making new links

I was also able to login without cookies till you just changed things so need cookies again that a PHPSESSID number but I can not again use the new bookmark http://www.landzdown.com/index.php?board=40.0.

I see the same now at another Simple Machines site http://calendarofupdates.org/index.php that I do not need a cookie to login to.
I know I have been to sites that do not use cookies because you sign into account and use the right password so cookie is not needed.

I say just hang on and wait it out. Hopefully they will get it all sorted out soon.

There was a hardware failure on the server that LzD is hosted on so I suspect that it is related to that.

Thanks,

Sorry for posting in wrong place.

Corrine · August 17, 2015, 11:28:10 PM

Actually, you didn't. This forum was named "Suggestions" and your post gave me the idea to change it to include Feedback. So, thanks!

Sorry guys, we are in a little bit of disaster recovery. The URLs you were mentioning should now be working.

I see the links are now changed again like they used to be.

Great to see you got it fixed.

I think http://calendarofupdates.org/index.php can use your help but see Corrine over there helping on some things.

Corrine · August 18, 2015, 06:56:13 PM

Steve got it fixed at CoU too.

hewee · August 19, 2015, 12:26:24 AM

Good to hear.
See it pays to have good friends. :D

Corrine · August 19, 2015, 01:08:35 AM

Sure does, hewee.

hewee · August 19, 2015, 09:11:11 PM

But I do not know what was fixed at CoU because it is still with the PHPSESSID links all over like it was here.

Corrine · August 20, 2015, 01:50:39 AM

I thought it was fixed there. Steve replied that he ticked the "friendly URL box" in the Admin Control Panel.

hewee · August 21, 2015, 06:44:13 PM

Maybe he will do it later or he ticked wrong place.
