The Glowfic Constellation

[DanielH]

Minor request: go through the database and update all in-constellation links (those matching https?://((www.)?glowfic|vast-journey-9935.herokuapp).com/.*) to either relative links or whichever a canonical URL will be to.

Less minor request: please prioritize getting that redirection done.

A request where I don’t know how minor to consider it: you might want to consider using canonical URLs and telling Google about the per_page parameter if you want searches to work correctly.

[Marri]

We do use canonical URLs fwiw, I'll todo the rest.

The infosec people at work just shut off our primary database. I love you guys but I'm going to go fix that. And then there will be yelling. Oh, will there be yelling.

[DanielH]

I checked for canonical URLs before I mentioned them, but I only checked on the front page instead of an actual content page.

Hey, if the database is down nobody can get the secure information out of it! That sounds like a great idea!

[Timepoof]

A very Valar idea.

This is... actually closer than I like to admit to what happened.

[PlainDealingVillain]

Everyone knows that users are the bane of security. They just took the most straightforward path to fixing security: eliminate the possibility of users.

I just opened my Unread page. It says that I have 421 unread of 446 for Double Witch. I think it was just now imported; I’ve read all of it but unless I misremember where it was first published, none of it on the Constellation. I would expect it to be entirely unread, not as though I’d opened the first page.

[Marri]

Is it perchance in a continuity you have marked as read at a point during the creation of Double Witch?

I appear to be logged in on https://www.glowfic.com but not https://glowfic.com, which is a little perturbing. I assume this has something to do with the way cookies are set up.
