Nihon Ki'in 'improves' website breaking all story links
Posted: Tue Apr 21, 2015 12:19 am
On April 1st the Nihon Ki'in upgraded its website. At the same time it changed the structure of the site, breaking all our past links to stories about tournaments (at least).
Previously stories used to be in a date-based structure .../match/YYYY/MM/asdfgh.html
This has been changed to .../match_news/match_info/asdfgh.html
So far in my checking all the final documents seem to be unchanged and substituting 'match_news/match_info' for the original 'match/YYYY/MM' finds the original article.
Edit: At least some .../news/YYYY/MM/qwerty.html links have turned into .../event/events/qwerty.html links. However, some stories that were not about 'events' seem to have ended up in different categories.
