Broken links

Broken links (or “dead links” are the bane of many websites. And WowHumor is no exception.

Simply put, a broken link is a link that points to a web page or server that is unavailable. Resulting in either 404 errors (where the web server is found the page isn’t found on the server) or DNS errors (where it can’t find the server).

I have just fixed a few of them that somehow escaped my gaze when adding the pages. Many of them were rather important to and, if you were wondering what the Next button on the 8th image didn’t work, it’s because it was the link was broken (and even if it wasn’t you’d get stuck at images 35, 36 and 37).

These have been fixed, among many other broken links and should hopefully provide a much smoother viewing experience. In fact, it should let you view the images full stop.
