I'm posting this as a sticky here in the main forum for now: If you find a post/thread with an internal link that is not working, post it here. It will get fixed.

These would be any links that start with https: //eat.at , https: //finkerkitchens.com , https: //recipeswap.org/ that don't click through to the correct place.

Another good place to look is the optional posts that this sweet search engine posts below your current search. It goes WAY back to 2006 and there might be broken links in there. Check it out! Get in on the snipe hunt!
 
Dawn/MO link for facebook is doubled and neither works for me. Not sure if they're tied together or it's a posting issue.

this is an offsite link so we have no control over it. But I looked online and found other sites linking to the video and it doesn't work on other sites either. But I'm updating that thread with a YT version that is similar.

it was broken here and on the CI site so I updated it with what I believe is the correct article on CI
 

Slantedwindows link is broken in this. May be too old or something. I get a Chinese 404 error message. That worried me.

looks like the site doesn't exist any more and the domain was taken by a Chinese company. I updated the page with the latest capture that I could find on archive.org.

Hi there,
While searching for the NYT Gazpacho recipe, I saw a recipe for Cathy Z's gazpacho salad and thought it sounded interesting, alas broken link.

And here's the NYT recipe also broken (404 message)

The second post from Judy Mass has a FK link that is still pointing to "NEW SITE COMING" page
 
@monj what is the URL of the page(s) where these links were broken?
Is this what you're looking for Paul?
 
Paul, I just did my first broken link swap. It was from Richard in Cincy and included a Finer Kitchen link and below that a link for a sausage company.

http://www.finerkitchens.com/swap/forum/index.php?action=display&forumid=1&msgid=37266

I found the FK link first and replaced it and Yay! GREAT! It worked...but the secondary (sausage) link (no pun intended) turned into chinese characters and when I clicked on that, it was ALL chinese characters with a countdown.

I deleted that and found valid link for the sausage company, but what did I do wrong??? Screen snapshot below shows what it looked like:
