Hi @tannercd ,
I could reproduce all the issues you have mentioned and I found that <a href="proper_link"> is missing in the code.
I am fixing it now.

Hi @rajat641 ,

Ok great. Thank you for providing the fix. Let me know if I should close the issue myself or if you will close it upon completion.

[rajat641]

Hi @tannercd ,
I'll close this upon completion.

Hi @moT01 ,
Can you give me a little hint on how to reproduce this locally??

Hi @tannercd, thanks for reporting this and for your detailed rundown. Makes it much easier to fix these broken links.

@rajat641, these all seem to be related to challenge guides on the forum. The permissions to edit each post are quite high, so a moderator will have to go in and fix each link.

I'll go through each of these and fix the links.

[scissorsneedfoodtoo]

Just finished updating these links. Thanks again for creating this issue, @tannercd.

Could you or @rajat641 go through and confirm all the links are working and pointing to relevant guide articles?

Will close this issue for now, but please @ mention me if you notice any issues.

Hi @scissorsneedfoodtoo, you're welcome. I tried to provide as much detail as possible since I'm not able to update the wiki at my current permission level.

I just checked out each of the updated links and everything is working. All bugs fixed. Thank you for closing this issue. Cheers!

Thanks a lot @scissorsneedfoodtoo . I was trying to understand the code for 2-3 hours and ended up finding nothing and So I commented here. It saved my time.

[scissorsneedfoodtoo]

Thanks for confirming all the links are working @tannercd. Your details made it really easy to find and fix them. Please feel free to open another issue if you find more broken links and @ mention me.

Sure, no problem @rajat641. Sorry for the confusion. The code in this repo mostly pertains to the /learn app. The Ghost theme for /news is in another repo and /forum is run on Discourse, and is almost completely independent from the other two applications.

It's a little extra confusing because we usually encourage people to raise any issues here in the main repo since it's the most visible. Hope that helps clear the air a little bit, and looking forward to your next contribution 👍 👍

No problem @scissorsneedfoodtoo . I'm glad I was able to help. If I find anymore broken links on the forum or challenge guides I will create an issue and @ mention you. Thanks again!

@tannercd, great! Please do.
