Hi Chris and Tadd,

Since the KB is being phased out and the Substance is being made front page material, I've a suggestion.  Throughout the Forum are tons of links to the FAQ as an article is remade on the frontpage a redirect needs to be placed on the FAQ url that'll send someone to the new article.
example:
if someone clicks on a link that reads http://mytreo.net/treofaq/Treo700pReset they should get sent to http://mytreo.net/how-to-guides/resetting-your-palm-device/

That way n00bs and questioners aren't frustrated by following dead links in old threads.  Please note that this suggestion is only if you plan on, at some point future or not, removing the old FAQ pages; if they will remain live and just will be no longer added to/edited than my suggestion is not needed.

Yes, I agree with your suggestion... I have done similar for all the old article URLs and the old downloads URLs all have redirects too... I will get round to this sometime.

Did you get my mail about writing/downloads admining for us? Smiley
