Col,

The correct link should be homed from our dslrusers.net domain rather than our older D70users.net one.

COuld you please make the appropriate substitution and let me know if that works?

Could you also point me to where you took the link you used from, so that we mak correct the reference so that others don't have the same hassles?

And Thanh's observation is absolutely correct: the link from the site's front page is correctly homed, so if you use that one, there should not be any problems.

http://www.d70users.net/files/PHOTOGRAP ... TSHELL.pdf

Mal,

Thanx for that.

I've edited that message, and so both links are now correct.

Okay guys. I originally hit the link at the top od this page and nothing. I was logged in to the .com version due the bounce from the reminder emails which send me to the .com site rather than the .net and when accessed from the centre of the main page http://www.d70users.net/files/PHOTOGRAP ... TSHELL.pdf , I get the Not Found page.

If I log on to the .net site & go to it from the Tutorial section at left of the main page http://www.d70users.net/files/PHOTOGRAP ... TSHELL.pdf all is well.

Too many sites AARRGGHH! :shock:
I will get there. Just wondering about the effect on newbies??

Col, I need you to be specific regarding where the incorrect links are.

For instance, the first that you mention in what I've quoted ... that's coming from within a message, and thus it lives within the message database.

That's the link that Mal pointed me to earlier this afternon, and if you check it now, it should be correct, regardless of whichever site you access it from.

Please do not confuse that though with other references to that same link that will exist within this message thread, which I have not edited, and therefore will be, and will remain, wrong. The only one I've fixed thus far is my original link, as pointed to by Mal. Again, that's the one that's at the top of the previous page, and it's embedded within my message.

Now, you say that some of the links from the front page are working, but you then go and quote an incorrect link. That confuses even me. :)

I checked one of those links earlier this afternoon, before Mal made his post, and that was fine. But the link was not what you've quoted here.

Please understand that the links on the front page come from a totally different source, and are individually sourced within each of the sites. Thus it's possible that they might, occassionally, get out of synch, but that's why I need to know exactly which one it is that is not resolving correctly, if that is in fact the case. Basically, I can't fix it if you can't tell me where it's broken. :)

I first went to the link on the very first message in this thread and it didn't work, but the front page links (Tutorial Section) did. It would appear that the link works now. I may have been thinking about it and writing message when you were correcting it. I cannot remember now whether I was logged in from a topic reply noification email (.com login) or through a .net login. Any way the link that wasn't working before now is. Sorry to cause you any drama. :oops:
