Welcome to the New E-Learning Heroes!
Hello! I’m Ginger Swart, a Community Manager here at Articulate, and I’m thrilled to welcome you to our new E-Learning Heroes Community! Please check out this article to watch a walkthrough video of ...
Any idea when links to E-learning Heroes in Google search results will start working again? Currently, those links tend to redirect me to the homepage with the error "Access Denied You do not have access to this area of the community or it doesn't exist"
A few links to some of my old "Tips" posts gave me that error message. I found out from the staff that discussions that didn't have any activity within the last 3 years weren't transferred to this new site. Instead, they were archived. In other words, those old links will never work.
Given that that there are quite a few Storyline bugs reported 3+ years ago that still haven't been addressed, it seems illogical to not let us view the discussion for workarounds and fixes. Oh well.
That is a shame. Many 3+ years posts have valuable information that is still relevant for troubleshooting and/or finding/working out solutions.
I link to my "TIPS" posts when I'm answering related questions. That means the newer comments are usually entered on someone else's post instead of my linked post. So, yes, old info could be useful even if it didn't seem "active." (FYI: Older post that had comments added within the last 3 years were transferred.)
Anyway, I can understand why Articulate decided not to transfer absolutely everything from the old site. Questions are often repeated in multiple posts, because folks don't always search for an answer before they start a new discussion. And I'd guess that many of the older posts weren't relevant anymore, and it would have been way too much effort to cull the good ones.
