1647081 - SeaMonkey Community: Dead Link to "SeaMonkey Help"

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: Website, defect, P3)

Description

[Rainer Bielefeld]

Link behind text "SeaMonkey Help" http://seamonkey.ilias.ca/ will be forwarded to https://ilias.ca/redirect-seamonkey.
That page only contains Hint "You have been redirected to this page, because my SeaMonkey Help site has moved to the archive section of ilias.ca, and is no longer being updated. "
On that Page behind text "the archive section" leads to https://ilias.ca/archive/seamonkey/ which looks very broken and seems completely useless.

Unfortunately I don't know whether that contents still is available somewhere, or whether something similar is available somewhere.

Best to remove the link I think.

Hi, I was going to report this dead link as well. And since this one is fresh in someone's mind I'm adding this.

I'm installing SeaMonkey for the first time. I was looking for help with what I needed to do before. Like GPG, syncing contacts with Google, importing from FF. This is a need across many sites. Meaning for someone who can follow more technical things but isn't doing it anymore on a daily bases. It's been over 25 years since I coded. I'd be open to sharing more of what I've been experiencing and an idea or two with whomever.

There is another such link in http://www.seamonkey-project.org/doc/. And should a link to an archived version of the "SeaMonkey Help" webpage be added under "Other & Older Resources"?

Yes, that link is in the community help section. Is there a working archived version?

Currently, probably only at the wayback machine and similar services.
