    "plethora" includes all the tutorial links from the sticky thread (PDFs, AND the links to the original posts), as well as about 97% of the links I've found from these forums on Google. I didn't report it because I assumed it was a known issue, but if it's not, now you know

    Help Dead links?

    Hello! Sorry, newbie here.

    Does anyone know why I am being redirected to the general forum when I click on a link, despite seeing another URL on my browser when I hover over it?
