Had to make a minor change to the link reporting functionality. Found out pretty quickly that anonymous users started abusing it (or, hopefully, just misunderstanding it) so I’ve blocked its use to users not signed into the system.
The “report dead link” function is there, you just have to have an account and logged in to use it.
That’s the current change. The upcoming change is to extend the functionality to change “report dead link” to “report link” and then offer options of the type of report (i.e. dead link, mis-categorization, aup violation etc.) This will help us (myself and Sol, our editor) when reviewing link reports (right now there are so many, its difficult to keep up — this is not a complaint, its good to have actively engaged users trying to help… this is a GOOD thing).
Also… an update. The all-in-one login for everything is coming along. I don’t have an estimation of when it will be deployed, but I am making good progress.
