There was a problem hiding this comment.
Shorten to just "online" else it will break the formatting. This field is not meant to wrap.

Cool, thanks! LGTM :) |

The training event is visible but the link is broken: http://scala-lang.org/undefined |

@mslinn have you seen the scala-lang homepage. Main news headline is 'Introduction to Scala Online' , with a working like so not all bad :-) I added a comment to the merge request, but I couldnt see whats wrong |

Yes, I am reporting that the scala-lang home page shows the event, but the link is broken. The link I supplied was: Perhaps whatever parses the link threw an exception when it encountered the # character, hence the |
|
Ouch! |
|
I figured out a way to work within AWS redirection limitations. Instead of a # the URL now has a ?. Please reinstate this pull request. Hopefully the scala-lang site processor, whatever it is, will handle a query string better than it does anchors. |

I've found the problem with external links. There is a 'bug' in the code and the url gets lost for training events. see: #481 There is another issue where training events is not being filtered from 'news' items. It can be fixed by adding 'category: event' to the PR. However I dont know if 'event' is "conference only" or "conf and training" will have to ask @heathermiller / @SethTisue / etc what it actually means |
|
I wonder how the other training events worked, or was the bug recently introduced? |
|
It looks like in Feb there was some work done on the website and yours is the first non-Typesafe/Lightbend training event to be added. (TS/LB have a special feed to auto add training sessions). This is when 'category: event' was added to the conf. events but looks like they missed/forgot training :-( (see bottom of: f34dfd5 ) |
|
Thanks @andy1138 for looking into it! Your help is much appreciated. |
|
Ok, the proposed fix didn't work. I do not have time to debug this now, so in order to restore the frontpage of scala-lang to a functional state I'm reverting this pull request. If someone else has time to debug, I will happily merge! Else, this will have to wait. |

@mslinn Usually values with special characters require the whole value to be quoted, no need to change the URL scheme! |
