There was an infrastructure change recently that changed the URL of the forum to a new one, in another subdomain.
Because of that, many links have been broken, as there's no automatic redirect in place.
For example, try to open this link:
https://monolithservers.com/forums/threads/how-to-become-staff.1274/
You'll be redirected to https://f.monolithservers.com/forums/, and not the individual topic that was linked.
In this guide we'll download and set-up a browser extension that will automatically redirect all the old forum links to the equivalent working ones.
1. Download and install Redirector, a browser extension that allows you to set URL paths to redirect
2. Open the Redirector interface by clicking on the icon
3. Select "Edit redirects"
3. Click on "Create new redirect"
Fill the form with the following information:
The description can be whatever you want, I put "Old Monolith Forum" as mine.
4. Click "Save".
Try it out!
I hope you find this useful!
