Report & help check download problems, corrupted files, badly-named files, bad links etc. (NOT for style & reading complaints)

From this page viewtopic.php?f=12&t=81029
I click on the link at Type of proof-listening required (Note: please read the PL FAQ): standard
The link address reads "viewtopic.php?f=21&t=17680"

I am taken to the page viewtopic.php?f=21&t=17680 which tells me "You are not authorised to read this forum."

I have tried logged in both as plain-old-me, and with my new-found DPL status.
Same results both times.

I am probably doing something wrong, but I am sure that I read this (and other FAQ pages) two weeks ago.
Thanks for any guidance.

I think this happened because of our recent shuffling around of the 1-minute test forum and the new Proof Listeners Wanted forum. That thread was replaced by a duplicate of it, which is here: viewtopic.php?f=61&t=90850

However, it won't be a quick correction of the URL, because this URL is part of the project template and so it is present in every project. I think we'll have to move the old thread out of the admin-only section and swap it with the new replacement. But I don't think I have that ability.

Oh wait, looks like I do have that power after all! Should be fixed.

Thanks, Devorah. I can see the link now. I wanted a quick review before doing another PL.
Cheers
Chris
P.S. I know that if I reduced my research I'd be reporting fewer problems.
But then I'd probably be creating more problems!

I'm very glad you reported this one. That's an important resource, especially for newer volunteers, and it needs to be readily available. :thumbs:

That's a link that isn't used anymore in the templates. I've removed it. Thanks!
