Dead/bad links
Reported by: | Jeffrey Lee (213) | Severity: | Normal |
Part: | Web site: General (miscellaneous issues) | Release: | |
Milestone: | Status | Fixed |
Details by Jeffrey Lee (213):
The “RISC OS 5 upgrade” link on https://www.riscosopen.org/content/downloads/ri… tries to take you to the RISC OS 5.20 ROM sales page, which doesn’t exist.
Meanwhile, the RISC OS 5.24 ROM sales page has 5.22 in the URL, potentially causing some confusion. https://www.riscosopen.org/content/sales/risc-o…
If old versions aren’t available for sale, perhaps it would make sense to drop the minor version from the URL so the same URL of https://www.riscosopen.org/content/sales/risc-o… (or maybe https://www.riscosopen.org/content/sales/risc-o…) could be used everywhere? (until we decide to jump to the next major version number, at lest)
Similarly the “collector’s CD” link tries to take you to the 5.20 CD page, and the 5.24 page is reusing the 5.22 URL.

Good spot. This should be fixed now and note to self we should avoid version numbers creeping into URLs in future.
